Even fire/lightning/ice, if so why is it not more popular?

    fire/ice/lightning damage isn't magic damage. That's why.

    oh ok cause Orc passive and Automaton say they affect physical, but they also apply to disease and poison damage so I thought that would be the same

    Basically War Maiden is only any good for a Vamp Magicka Templar DD. All the 4 or so of them who are still active across all servers.

    Orc passive affect melee damage, not physical.
    Automaton set affect physical damage, not poison or disease.
    Everything is viable

    It’s great for magblades. They don’t have any elemental damage. Pretty much all magick damage.

    Actually warmaiden is not good for Magplars, since 50% of templars damage currently is fire.

    if the tooltip says "deals magic damage" then it does effect it, if it does not say that, then it does not effect it, a good example is force pulse, it does a initial damage of fire/frost/shock, which is unaffected but it also does a AOE magic damage affect, which unless its bugged, should be affected by it.

    What sets are better to run on magblade than War Maiden?Also, do all NB skills that cost magicka = a magicka skill? For example, is Concealed Weapon a magicka skill as per the War Maiden description?

    God - I don't think I could have made that sound more confusing if I tried. I hope people understand what I mean? LOL.

    The answer is no. You need to look at the tooltip. It says "deals X amount of magic damage". If you see that, war maiden affects it. If it says for example fire or disease damage, it doesn't affect it.

    There are different types of damage in this game. Fire, lightning, ice, magic, poison, disease, physical, and oblivion. Any skill that specifically says "deals X Magic damage" will be buffed by this set. If it deals any other type of damage it will not be affected by the set.

    The top-ranked PvPer on PCNA wears War Maiden. It buffs light attacks well amongst others.
