Bump. Both this fireball one and the musket’s sticky bomb same incorrect scaling have been around for so long, I’d have to imagine they are on the dev’s radar. Hopefully a fix comes along sooner rather than later.

This is true also for Mortar, Splitting Grenade, Sticky Bomb, Gravity Well, and iirc Path of Destiny.

It really gimps INT builds.
