I feel your pain. My theoretical fire mage build has also been shelved for the time being
Any updates on this I’ve testing gloves and pants and empowering fireball didn’t do any extra damage?
I haven’t heard anything. I think I’m gonna take a break from new world until they fix/polish stuff like this, and add outpost rush.

This is still not working. I’m opening another bug report to outline my testing.

Seems to be working just fine, your dot damage goes from 19 a tick to 21 a tick.
There is some damage change in the burning field, but the fireball impact itself has no damage increase, which is what the perk specifies. If the perk had been referring to the burning field left by the fireball, it would (most likely) refer to that as burning field damage, as described in the ability tree of the fire staff.

This has actually changed in one of the patches since I recorded the video. Tick damage is no longer increased by this perk, meaning it now has absolutely no effect on anything. If I had to guess, I would say that as soon as they saw it wasn’t working as intended, they toggled the perk off while they work on a fix.

I would agree but there’s no notice of this on any of the known bug forum posts. Hoping we can get some acknowledgement so I can move on to test some other abilities.

Agree with lack of fireball bonus damage.
The only usefull firestaff perk and it’s not working since launch …
This and the fact that if you put a fireball on someone(mob/boss included) more than half the time it just get through theim, pillar of fire casting itself on launcher instead of showing the aoe to place and for some reason since last patch not doing any damage 90% of the time…
Intell dps rly feels unpolished.

This game should still be in beta. This is unsatisfactory.

i believe that it has been fixed but now that the perk can’t crit and firestaff has been destroyed …
fireball never crit in the first place. it was just showing orange numbers as a bug, but still dealt regular damage.
Despite what ags said (how many lies by now) they could crit, it has been tested and i personaly tested it on the sniper in invasion orange number were not the same (higher) and it did show on the %hp they lost from the fireball.
Bump!
