Spell or weapon???

I have a question on weapon damage vs spell damage buffs. My Sorc uses a destruction staff. I use “Pulsar” as a primary attack against groups. Do spell buffs or do weapon buffs increase the damage done by a weapon spell? A class spell seems pretty straightforward to me, spell buff. Anyone that can shed some light on this will be appreciated.

Thank you

    Impulse scales with weapon** (gimme a break) damage, as do the other destruction staff spells

    same with resto spells

    Pretty sure destruction staff scales with weapon damage and crits scale off spell crit.
    Do you even backstory, bro?
