What Spell Power Type(s) Affect Insidious Spores from Primal Avatar?

[changelingamuck]

I'm wondering what spell power type(s) affect the tier one Insidious Spores ability in the Primal Avatar destiny. Anyone know?

It does both poison and rust types of damage. So, I would assume repair spell power increases at least the rust damage, of course. I would guess that force spell power would increase the poison damage, but I'm not sure...

Also, when a spell does multiple types of damage, I've often seen that whichever relevant spell power type is higher will increase all the damage types that result from the spell. Is this the case for insidious spores? Would whichever is higher of force or repair spell power increase both the poison and the rust portions of damage?

Thanks in advance if anybody can shed light on this question.

Nobody knows...?

I'm guessing that the way it works is whichever is higher of repair or force spell power boosts both the rust and poison damage...

I'm not in epics at the moment so I can't test it though.

should be easy to test --- try with and without spell power item(s) and see if you can spot difference. Should be very apparent if something helps.

Yeah, it's just not easy for me to test right now since the character isn't epic; and I'm trying to plan a build before using a lesser heart. I only care about this before using the heart because I have to weigh whether or not to put points into repair or spellcraft.

It's not even a spellcasting-focused character, but it's got a surplus of skill points and I wanted to play around with insidious spores once I hit epic. Thought that maybe somebody on the forums would know about the spell power thing even though it's not a popular epic ability.
