hello,
i think it would be great, if played could hover mouse on his dmg output to see popup with each element.

E.G.:

Dmg: 500-800
-------------------
Phys 300-500
Fire 80-100
Frost 80-100
Lightning 1-50
Poison 39-50

What do you think? I think it's quite missing in D2, you just see it coloured by one of elements you deal but gives you no insight into your "immune-fighting-capabilities"

Well good news then, this has been part of the character sheet for a long time now. I don't foresee any reason why we'd remove it, but in any case just the normal disclaimer of this being a work in progress.

An example!

I have a barbarian with a halberd that adds 1-9 lightning damage in addition to its other stats. I mouse over his attack in the character sheet and it breaks down the damage for me in a tooltip:

Q u o t e:
Total Damage - "54.2 - 164.6"
- -
Physical Damage - "27.0 - 79.0"
- Physical Damage Bonus - "26.2 - 76.6"
Lightning Damage - "1.0 - 9.0"


And in researching this example I just found a bug, so it was a win-win situation for everyone.

Oh and the physical damage bonus is from Strength.

Everything that can be broken down is broken down.
