Enchant and Auras

[Alash]

Bit of a technical question, but I've not yet found an answer so I'm trying my luck here. Is Enchant affected by auras, e.g. Concentration, or is the damage boost static?

[stephan]

Concentration boosts physical damage (and BH) and enchant is fire damage.

[Alash]

Ah yeah, of course. :)

Next question: is there any ways to boost fire damage externally? I.e. from other party members than the Sorceress.

[stephan]

Indirectly conviction and lower resist would boost the damage.

EDIT: Summoner/Enchantress team could be pretty cool, if that's what you are looking for.

[Alash]

It's what I'm making, actually. Though it's on hardcore, so we can't afford Infinity and goodies of that caliber.

Lower Resists is a good idea. Thanks for that!

You can add elemental damage to your attacks by having a holy fire/frost/chock aura. The most popular way for an enchantress to achieve that is a Dream runeword helm and shield. Levels of granted auras from equipment stack and they benefit from the sorc's mastery skills (and if it's a melee attack, the mastery multiplier will be applied twice, as with enchant). That leads to massive fire+lightning damage (to be applied e.g. through zeal from the Passion runeword) and that's before conviction from the merc comes into play.
