Possible to increase Hurricane damage?

Does anyone know if Hurricane counts as a "cold skill", i.e., would nightwing's veil increase the damage of hurricane? For that matter, can cold facets have an effect? Thanks in advance for any information you can provide.

 

i dont think so

 

Well, I was kinda hoping.... however, -enemy cold resist should work, right? Hurricane is cold damage, after all. Could someone test this to confirm?

 

Cold facets should affect Hurricane damage and all that. It is a cold spell.

 

Yes it does.

 

Runeword Doom grants 2 to skills and -60 to -40 cold enemy cold resists.

 

Don't forget level 14 or so Holy Freeze as well...

I have seen some pubby wind druids abuseing this weapon with brutal results. You'd be suprised at how difficult it is to manuver and dodge tornadoes when you got holy freeze on you. Not to mention slower blocking frames, makeing those raven hits critical. And people without stacked cold res... well an extra 100-400 damage per second is painfull as well. Did I mention it slows down physical attack speeds?

The weapon is just nasty...

 

Ravens aren't nearly as useful as everyone makes them out to be.
60 max cold resist is EASY to stack.
With my regular build I have about 80 stacked cold resist in hell (above 75).

To me +1 skills, 40fcr, and 30-40 resist all is better then a holy freeze aura.
