Is increased elite dmg on weapon ads to area dmg?

So, the current wiz 4 player build have a lot of area dmg on it. My question is if an item have increased elite dmg on it, is it added as well to the damage what the area dmg does, or only ads to the meteor hit? How does the increased elite dmg and the area dmg works together? Is it coming on top of the area dmg, or not even added to it? Anyone knows? Thanks…

as far as I understand, the elite dmg bonus gets added before the AD dmg calculation. You’re better off going with just normal bonus dmg on your weapon imho since it affects elites AND normal mobs, i.e. everything. If you hit an normal mob and it procs AD for the 10 yard radius and an elite is within that 10 yard range, it’ll cop the AD dmg too.
