    Log:
    *** zaps Skag
    *** reacts!
    *** inducts sparks
    Slag took 5 Arcane damage.

    "Zap" is Magic Arcane, that does 4 Arcane Damage.
    "Spark Inductor" reads, "Add 1 damage to any Electrical Attack..."

    I have spells that are both "Magic Arcane" and "Magic Electric", so I'm assuming there's a difference between those two types.

    There should be a difference, yes.

    But Big Zap does 5 Arcane damage just fine. Are you sure you didn't play the "big" one?

    I'm sure. I took a screenshot of my battle log, but unfortunately it doesn't tell me which Zap it was. Regardless, do you see the "inducts sparks" reaction after each and every spell you're casting? :)

    Spark inductor reacts for arcane as well, but with the effect of making the attack harder to block - so it triggering in the log is not incorrect, due to that.

    Okay, I just played through another dungeon and tracked the damage and spells. This is not a bug.
