That passive would make a lot more sense if the skill line actually had more status effect inducing damage types / attacks.... but there are only 1 1/2 frost skills in the kit (1/2 for the synergy since its not directly a skill)...? ?

    What do you mean by status effect inducing types? Literally any damage has status effects, physical applies sundered, magic applies overcharged, and so on, status effects are not elemental exclusive.

    And even then, the passive affects ALL of your status effects, not just the skills within that line, so it will be naturally buffing the damage of status effects from your enchantments, weapon skills, etc.

    yeah but only the elemental ones really do damage and the passive increases damage...

    I think passives in a skill line should reflect the specific focus of the skill line.

    No? Every single Status Effect deal damage, magical or martial, they ALL do damage alongside some other effect.

    And even if they didn't, they'd still benefit from the passive, because Psychic Lesion not only increases damage, it also boosts proc chance by 55%.

    For some dam is very minor...and arcanist has very few diff attack types...

    You can also refer to the in-game help section, under Combat > Status Effects.
