Do staff attacks do more damage to shocked enemies?

Do staff attacks do more damage to shocked enemies? - Focused mechanic repairing compressor hose in workshop

"Shocked" is a debuff status effect in Dragon Age Inquisition that makes enemies more vulnerable to magic attacks. So I assume that using additional spells against shocked enemies does more damage to them.

What I'm unsure about is if a mage's staff attack counts as a "magic" attack. Do shocked enemies take more damage from a mage's basic staff attack, or do only spell abilities count for bonus damage?



Best Answer

Staff attacks are counted as magic attacks and they're not used a blunt weapon, I messed around with my mage character for a while to figure this out.
