I think we are all confused, Elemental damage was fixed a few publishes ago. This patch had some old patch notes mixed in on accident. You shouldnt see any change in your damage but your elemental is working and has been for a while

whats the point of elemental if Blue saber don't make them cold or Red saber don't heat them and so on and so on.. i thought when you use a red saber and hit some one they get burn over time or something then blue saber makes them slow down.. green aid makes them have poison ...... what is elemantal for if they don't do anything... and whats with this
Combat
- Elemental damage will now be applied to a target for weapons that have bonus elemental damage.

I havent heard of them actually applying a state when you use them Although it does state in the crystal that its heat or cold but I think thats kind of useless. If you turn on your detailed combat log youll see you are getting a bouns elemental damage on top of your regular Damage. As far is burning or anything I dont think we will ever see that.

elemental damage adds extra damage on top of your normal energy damage. (25% for normal color crystal, 30% for named crystal). Each color does a different type of elemental damage. The type of elemental damage doesn't make sense with respect to the color, but who cares? (would it make any more sense that a blue color did cold damage even though it is a beam of energy?)

Thats a really good question can we find out what "bonus" is defined as and what the actual damage expectation is. I think that it would help us all understand what out sabers are suppose to be doing.

They also mentioned in the announcement notes for Publish 23, that PC jedi hunting is moved to Master BH box.
It seems that SOE have mixed up some old publish notes with their new ones

you have to go into your UI options and check the box labled "verbose" combat log then check all the options that you would like to see in your combat tab.
