With this skill he basically has an AoE attack that kills the monsters around him, releasing their souls which he then “absorbs”. I was wondering what type of damage is this considered. I doubt it is considered physical for obvious reasons but at the same time it doesn’t seem to fit the known damage types in the game; fire,poison, lightning, cold and arcane. Are they planning on including a new damage type “spirit” or are they going to include its damage into one of the already existing damage types? Community Manager at Blizzard, Bashiok:

Many things are under consideration and continual iteration. As to what type of damage it would be, well it’s a great question because something like soul harvest brings up those same questions for the designers and artists. Do you make it physical to avoid attaching a damage type that may not really make sense, go ahead and attach something and live with it, or think of something new? We don’t know yet. Tags:
