Spirit Charges, unlike other basic charges, offer no buffs or benefits by default and only have additional effects when from Lightpoacher or Hale Negator. Sources of generic charge duration like Charge Mastery and Trickster's Swift Killer will allow Spirit Charges to be retained longer.
Gain 5% of Physical Damage as Extra Damage of each Element per Spirit Charge: This modifier grants 5% of physical damage as fire, cold, and lightning damage per Spirit Charge. This can stack extremely high in builds investing into abyssal sockets and Abyss jewels.
