(Not sure if anyone asked this question before, but I couldn't find it anywere.)
As ppl who either played PTR or read patch notes know, wds get a new staf in patch 2.3 called SuWong Diviner that gives Acid Cloud the Lob Blob Bomb rune. My question or confusion is about the elemental of this rune. Will it use the poison dmg as if we were using that rune on the skill, or does it use the elemental of our active Acid Cloud rune on skill bar? Heard ppl say it does poison dmg, but I feel it should work like the ww set for barbarians where their dust devils use the selected elemental on ww skill.
So if anyone know or have tested this it would be kind to clear up this confusion
It uses the elemental damage type of the rune you have selected, this issue came up with Whirlwind and 6pc wastes and using other runes, it would use the rune you have on your hotbar, not the one given by gear. I assume this would hold true for this, and k'mar tenclip and drifting shadow rune, and other such items that give you an additional rune.

Yeah, it is what sounds most resonable atleast. Just became confused when I heard big streamers say that the blob did poison dmg like it always only could do poison dmg and not the element that was selected on skill bar. So thanks for clearing up on the subject
Woah, hold on. The tornadoes from the Wastes set did physical damage last season, no matter which WW rune you used. Unless they changed it this PTR, it's still like that, and I would assume that the lob blob will also be poison only.

Almost all the mobs in d3 don't have elemental resistances, and damage from WW, while triggered with Phys Convention element, scaled with rune and element of your choice.
I believe even if lob blob will deal poison damage from conv. ring, it will use your elem modifier from chosen rune.
and anyway, it will have no impact on gameplay whatsoever, due to the game being dumbed down
