Smite doesn't transfer ANY elemental damage.
Unless there's a chance to cast an elemental attack on any of your equipment. Smite will set those off.
Even a "bad" 340 damage grief is an awesomely powerful weapon.
Note that when venom kicks in your character screen could show your damage going
down. That's because venom takes ALL poison damage from all sources down to 0.4 secs duration. That way a 100 over 6 seconds PDSC will go from 100 damage to 6.667 damage. Kinda nuts, but the faster you hit (zeal/frenzy), the damage goes way up. I had a grief PB on a frenzier last season and the venom was quite effective against PI's in hell. :grin:
