Hi all

Currently lvl 70 @ 79 expedition level. I am running an elemental ailment build + w/ fire being primary. I use a hybrid build.

Skills: Plagueburst Anamoly Solarfall Bulwark of Dawn

If Pistol Equipped: Havoc Orb
If Melee/Dagger: Wrath of Baapeth w/ Life Leach

Question is regarding main hand DPS and how it applies to overall damage on skills. Is the DPS on the main hand directly related to overall damage, or only skills related to that primary hand damage type? So would a dagger with 250 dps affect overall spell dps also? Will it affect ANY skill DPS or just main hand white damage?

As for the gemming of main hand: Do you ALWAYS want 3 offensive 1 slots with +Damage Type w/ Weapon, or since I really only use my non magic skills to either gain life leech as with Baapeth, and to dump rage? Would Offensive 2 slots be a better choice because its +Damage Type w/ Spells? I've only played Diablo 3, I have no idea how this system works in other games from this genre and in Diablo 3 mainhand DPS is directly tied to overall skill damage. Since this game specifies the damage type, it makes me feel like offensive 1 slots only affect the weapon white damage or skills based on that weapons type.

Can someone clear this up for me? Thanks!
