Fire aura question

Mage
1

I was wondering if anyone was having an issue with the shown damage numbers from fire auras damage.

Currently if I’m in an empowered echo I see numbers around 10-20k. If I’m damaging a boss it’s 500k+ in same time line.

Few points:

  • it’s the same corruption 100+ empowered
  • it’s all timelines
  • it’s not a case of there was a echo modifier that I had in an echo completed it removed modifier and then challenged the boss
  • it’s not an issue of stack differences when running echo/boss
  • the mobs die instantly so I believe the damage is higher then shown in echo
  • dummy damage is over 4 million (I know that’s not true dmg but it’s just to note that the numbers are different and not capped)

I don’t have an answer to your question but I have another question about fire aura. Between the different cast fire aura on crit, kill, hit (up to 3 per second). are all 3 of these categories separate (crit, kill, hit) or do they share the same cooldown?

If they’re phrased like “Cast fire aura on crit (up to 3 times per second)” and “Cast fire aura on kill (up to 3 times per second)” (paraphrasing), then they’re separate cooldowns. Each trigger type will have its own cooldown, unless the skill itself specifically says it can’t be triggered more than x times per second, which isn’t the case here.

In this case they are separate conditions so they can all trigger separately at once. Just note that the same conditions on different items are additive and don’t have a separate trigger.

So if you have an idol that says 10% cast fire aura on crit and your chest says 10% cast fire aura on crit. You now have 20% cast fire aura on crit and not two cases of 10% cast fire aura on cri.

If you have an idol with 10% cast fire aura on crit and another idol with 10% cast fire aura on fire skill kill. You have two chances (10% each) to cast fire aura providing you fulfill their conditions.

No matter where the source comes from item/skill/passive unless stated otherwise what I just said should apply to it all and be additive if same wording. Or separate procs that can trigger on condition fulfilment depending on wording.
