Beam/bolt amplified by Damage Sphere

I tried out the Extreme AM subclass the other night and discovered that bolt, beam, and chain lightning were being affected by the damage sphere artifact. Was this intended to be the case after the whole triple incident, or would it be considered a bug/exploit?

The last definition was in the last post of this thread. So DD ups the damage of bolt/beam/chain, but the triple doesn't.
The Damage Sphere gives DD, so it ups the damage.
I don't see why it should be considered a bug/exploit.

Thank you for the clarification; just wanted to make sure.

I really want the server gets the last build created by Szlat. Its really cool.

I hope Druid and Shantara make this happen, almost a year with no update, Im satisfied that the server is still online but adding it a little more of spice will make it more enjoyable. >
