Well its not just the bonus damage but damage conversion that can really affect your overall dps. Say you have a ton of + chaos damage from other gear and skills and you have a scythe that converts 50% of physical damage to chaos, then half the damage you deal will get boosted from your chaos buffs.
That's also why the higher tier weapon mods are way more powerful, because they typically convert 30% of damage done to their element vrs low tier mods which typically only convert 15%.

By the way, i have an Aether Ray arcanist who is starting to be weaker than i initially expected. Any suggestion for a 2nd mastery? Seems to me Arcanist is the only mastery with aether bonuses, so I was thinking going for survivability and health
Re: PSA: Grim Dawn is 75% off!
The scythes seem to have been a coincidence, since I soon found a more powerful greatsword and sledgehammer. I just happened to find scythes that were stronger than other weapons I had.

Necromancer has aether bonuses. Namely Spectral binding, which increases aether damage, offensive ability and health total.
Inquisitors can reduce enemy aether defense and increase their own aether defense, which is good against damage reflect. Inquisitor Seal is another great defensive tool, if you're doing a ranged build. And if you need more damage, Inquisitor has you covered with Deadly Aim.

Do +% lightning damage affect lightning turrets?

If a skill that summons something, has the words "Scales with Player Damage Bonuses", then it gets the normal benefit of your damage boosts, like any other skill. If it says "Scales with Pet Bonuses", it only profits from things under "Bonus to All Pets".
I'm not sure if that's what you were asking. Because, I don't know what you mean by "lightning turrets".

Re: PSA: Grim Dawn is 75% off!
So you guys know the list of Honor-reputation faction quests?
I think its:
- Devil's Crossing: Origins of Sliths
- Rovers: Shrine of Mogdrogen
- Homestead: ????
- Black Legion: ????
- Kymon's Chosen: Kymon's Secret
- Order of the Death Vigil: ?????
- The Outcast: ???? (Is it the one that sends us to Port Valbury?)
There are probably new factions in the expansion that i dont know
Re: PSA: Grim Dawn is 75% off!
There are loads of quests that grant faction reputation? Killing the Warden as part of the main quest grants Devil's Crossing rep, for instance. I don't know if there's a full list on a wiki somewhere, though.
Re: PSA: Grim Dawn is 75% off!
Nah, I meant quests thst unlock once you reach a certain reputation level with the faction.
Re: PSA: Grim Dawn is 75% off!
Just a heads up for anyone who was on the fence earlier the game is on sale at GOG. Its 70% off for the base game and 20% off for the Ashes DLC.
Re: PSA: Grim Dawn is 75% off!
Of course the game goes on sale two weeks after I bought it for full price. But at least I nabbed the expansion and made my demolitionist/inquisitor. But now I need to respec her... too many redundant skills.

Dont fret too much about respecking. In fact, i recommend that about 90% of your first 6 levels be spent and focused solely on base starting skills so they become OP and you have fun wiping the early game. Eventually, pay the pittance of 2000 gold to take back all of these to boost the real advanced skills you lust after
