Invention to Shift Damage Type

Posted

A single enhancement that allows you, instead of doing bonus damage, to shift the damage type that is dealt by the attack

making a bashing attack lethal, or fire, or ice, or dark

example

A Touch of Darkness
Enhancement - This attack deals Negative Energy Damage instead of its normal
Enhancement - Acc/Chance of -hit
Enhancement - Dam/End

Slicing Cuts
Enhancement - This attack deals Lethal damage instead of its normal
Enhancement - Rec/Chance -Def
Enhancement - Acc/Rec

The devs have said it "can't be done" or some such.

And while we couldn't, say, *shift* the damage type, putting in a proc with 100% chance to fire (probably for less damage than a regular proc) would give much the same effect - adding fire/cold/toxic/whatever damage to the attack.
