Explosive arrow not applying ignite and more burn damage from burning damage gem does not work

I play EA with no balistas like we used to do, and I was able to reach dot cap with only 11 arrows per PoB, but for some reason it does not ignite at all some times, reminds of a bug we had many leagues ago before barrage support was nerfed when it had too much DoT damage and the damage would not apply at all, can you look into that?

Also, more burn damage from burning damage gem does not show on tooltip like other effects, increased burn damage from quality does show but not more damage. For instance, for deadly ailments it does show the more damage multiplier. Does it apply or its a bug?

Maybe HH mod "Always Crits" + Elemental Overload.

but would that stop it from igniting the mob,it does not make sense
In this league critical strikes with Elemental Overload cannot apply ailments.

Doesn't that only apply to characters with the Perfect Agony keystone?

Perfect Agony - non-critical strikes cannot inflict ailments
Elemental Overload - critical strikes cannot inflict ailments

Mechanical change in version 3.25.0

[quote]What happens if you allocate both Perfect Agony and Elemental Overload?
Elemental Overload states that your ailments never count as being from critical strikes, and Perfect Agony states that your non-critical strikes cannot inflict ailments. So you cannot inflict ailments.[/quote]

EO only states crits do not deal extra damage and ailments do not count as being from a crit. Always crit just means they always have EO buff. That RAQ only applies when allocating both, and they only have EO allocated. I've done plenty of EO-only ignite builds and never had my ignite whiff because it crit.

As for OP's issue, would probably need to see video. Could be evasion mob, de-sync, ailment avoidance, Expedition immune to fire, etc.. but outside of those more obvious ones I don't really have a good answer as it's been a long time since I played EA.
