What do the item bonuses do in Torchlight?
More specifically: Do "+4 fire damage" add 4 fire damage to all of my skills, spells, pet and weapons?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

I found a faq listing for them over on Gamefaqs:
http://www.gamefaqs.com/computer/doswin/file/960163/58690
Basically "+4 fire damage" will give you added points to do fire damage to an enemy, kinda like when playing D&D. I'm gonna give you some parts from the faq which explains weapon and armor bonuses:
ELEMENTAL (Cold, Fire, Flow, Life)
Weapon- Bonus element Damge
Armor- Bonus element Resistance
CORE
Weapon- Bonus Health Recovery per second
Armor- Bonus to STR attribute
DEEP
Weapon- Armor degraded per hit
Armor- Bonus to DEX attribute
EYEBALL
Weapon- Mana Stolen on Hit
Armor- Bonus to MAG attribute
SKULL
Weapon- Health Stolen on Hit
Armor- Bonus to DEF attribute
PURE
Weapon- Bonus Damage
Armor- Bonus Armor

Thanks for the answer. I understand how the gems work, however I am wondering what a +4 fire damage _armor_ item does and what it affects (weapon, skills and/or spells)?
Did you read the faq?
