Does Withered Effect Extra Chaos Damage?

I know that chaos passive nodes don't seem to effect getting extra chaos dmg from a node so I wondered if withered at least did or if its the same and nothing boosts extra chaos dmg but more extra chaos dmg nodes.

Are u talking about "x% of Damage as extra Chaos Damage" affixes on gear?

If yes then I assume Withered would increase that damage, because it's a debuff to the enemies damage taken. Since ur Skill is in part chaos damage when it hits, the chaos part of the hit would be increased by withered stacks.

No. Passive skill nodes like pure chaos. I was testing extra chaos damage out and I noticed that no passive chaos nodes boost extra chaos dmg so i wondered if any gems like withered did. It doesn't seem to. Feels a bit weird that extra chaos dmg doesn't seem to be considered chaos damage.

On a side note mantra of destruction doesn't seem to give me any extra chaos dmg either. Maybe I'm just using it wrong tho.

Also yes pure chaos does in fact give me a flat 11% damage boost as all chaos.

Chaos seems to be very confusing.

Are you sure? This is completely broken if true.
How did you test that? I want to do some research of my own.

Damage tooltips and pob. Neither seem to register any of it. Maybe im just missing something in the equation tho.

Ok so the Pure Chaos node is just like the affixes on gear.

As far as I understand the extra damage doesn't scale at all. It doesn't matter if it's chaos or any other element. However like I said above, Withered increases that part of the hit.

What I'm not certain about, is what the 11% scale off of. According to PoB it scales off the full scaled damage of ur skill, basically being an 11% "more" multiplier. I did however read that those affixes scale off the base damage of ur skill, which would mean they are more akin to "increased" damage instead.

Didn't look too much into it tho, but it definitely is correct that ur additional chaos damage doesn't scale with chaos damage nodes.

I think it's just the tooltip not showing the damage comparison for DoTs.

It's the same with my fire build but ONLY for incinerate, which has no hit dmg but the +fire dmg nodes 100% still affect it once taken.

Most chaos damage abilities are DoTs, try taking the node and checking in the skill details if the dmg has changed.

its a flat overall 11% and no chaos nodes effect it. As far as withered goes I honestly cant tell if it boosts it or not.

You can read in-game about conversion and gain as extra mechanics to learn how they work. If you have a solid evidence that chaos modifiers don't affect extra chaos damage as you claim, feel free to post it in the bug report section.
