Arcane is one of * '''''Looking for the types of [[damageArcane Enchanted]] in Diablo III. It is purple in appearance, and the corpses of monsters that die from Arcane damage glow with a purple light.Elite Affix?'''''

Arcane damage is chiefly dealt by one of the types of [[Wizard skills]] including [[Magic Missile]], [[Arcane Orb]], [[Disintegrate]], [[Arcane Torrentdamage]]in Diablo III. It is purple in appearance, and [[Energy Twister]]. Other spells (for the Wizard and other classes) may also gain or become corpses of monsters that die from Arcane damage glow with the aid of [[runestone]]sa purple light.

Some monster spell attacks are also Arcane damageis chiefly dealt by [[Wizard skills]] including [[Magic Missile]], [[Arcane Orb]], [[Disintegrate]], [[Arcane Torrent]], and it's assumed that [[Energy Twister]]. It can also be found on all types of weapons will also possess Arcane damage as a bonus modifier.

Arcane damage can be [[resist]]ed, as well as [[reduce]]d or [[absorbArcane Enchanted]]ed, but not is considered one of the most dangerous of all [[blockElite Affixes]]ed.

During development [[Critical hits]] scored with Arcane damage would "[[silence]]" enemy targets. (Silenced targets can not cast , preventing mages from casting some spells, such as a [[Skeletal Summoner]] or [[Goatman Shaman]] resurrecting fallen minions.) This effect was removed along with all other elemental debuffs except for cold during later testing.
