How does bonus shadow spell damage effect warlock spells?

I bought a bunch of shadow damage gear in the AH. I’m at around 65 bonus shadow damage at this point. I went to wsg and it didn’t make a difference. My shadow bolts deal around 120-130 damage and my corruption ticks 38-39. On everyone. On baseline corruption hits 222/6=37 damage. Meaning my shadow damage gear doesnt make a difference.

I checked the coefficients and shadow bolt should deal around ~142-156 damage and corruption should deal around 50 per tick. What am I not seeing? So far it looks like gold thrown out the window.
