How does % increased elemental damage on weapons work?

It doesnt seem to increase the value of the attack for that much. For example i play avatar of fire só all my damage is elemental. If i add like 100% increased eleemntal damage to my mace it does very little. How does it work?

"increased" is additive.
And increased damage is calculated before conversion.

So it only boosts the elemental damage displayed on the weapon? As skills all function with conversion.
Just check that u meet condition to convert 100% to fire. Otherwise u lose 25% of dmg like avatars says.

And here u are diffrences between ele weapon based vs phy weapon based:
