AnonymousBuff is confusing so adding some tested info based on Hotfix #17:
Buffed character has +2 spell dmg against enemies who are threatened.
You don't need to be threatened, your target needs to be.
Works with Magic Missles etc.
Keep in mind that enemies have status "threatened" if you have ally with melee weapon switched on in melee range.
So for example Magic Missle from Ne'er Misser won't apply additional damage, because you have ranged weapon in use while casting it.

Does not work with magic missile, and that makes me very sad

Yeah, seems like they changed the effect of this but didnt change the tooltip. While you have the buff you add proficiency to the damages while Threatened.
Beware it also adds to the heat charge damage xD You will suffer 1d4 + proficiency to your self
Seems like the +1 damage scales with your proficiency bonus
I paired this effect with the Daredevil Gloves (Ranged Spells are abled to casted while in melee range at full effect)
and my Ray of Frost at Character Level 5 was doing:
Damage Roll: 6 (2d8 Cold) + 3 (Proficiency) (Arcane Charge) = 9
Trying to think what build I could use this on. Abjuration tank wizard with one level of draconic cold sorcerer for armour of Agathy seems viable.
Or a monk/cleric multiclass perhaps?
