The length is a bit extreme to prove the point also. The max hits a lone allow you to see that sleeves will add onto Fire Core.
But your very long parses, show arms are adding something to Fire Core which is all that was necessary. The thing in question was if arms are pointless or not when having Fire Core running.

Re: Vapor core + First spire + Glyph of Courage?
The easiest way to tell is to copy to test or beta. Reset your aa's, this way you don't crit--buy hastened casting stuff to speed up your parsing*. Hit fire core with your sleeves on. Cast as many spears as possible until you see it hit over what fire core will do at max. If you can hit beyond that, then they stack. I'd say if you cast a thousand or so times without doing it, then they don't add together.
Mod's like that aren't supposed to add together but I'm not a dev and can't poke the code to say so for sure. So if you all see it doing that, then good for us![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif)
*Edit--To get quick damage requires crit aa's which will mess up the test. Instead, put some real life aa points into Extended Patience.

Re: Vapor core + First spire + Glyph of Courage?
Just ran the simple test. Pertinent info is in the box with a conclusion below that.
Condensed Text:
Basically, the max base of Broiling Sands rank 2 is 7964.
The max FC modifies is by 125% which would make the max base 17919.
SD is [(cast+recast)/7]*(worn SD) = [(0.75+4.5)/7]*410 = 307.5
It should round down somewhere and make that value 307 or less but 307 is close enough.
If SD is added last (which it is supposed to be), then the max FC+BS can do is 18226.
If SD is added before FC, then the max FC+BS can do is 18609.
I managed 19085.
To sum, sleeves and fire core will stack since I obviously broke the threshold that Fire Core can do.

Re: Vapor core + First spire + Glyph of Courage?
PJ, I realize my above post basically says what you did earlier in the thread. I was merely making an easier to read test case for those not extremely familiar with interpreting parse data; also, I wanted a cleaner parse so that there isn't debate about crits and other mods.
So, I made a clean, easy to read data set.
So, I made a clean, easy to read data set.
Re: Vapor core + First spire + Glyph of Courage?
I haven't updated my spreadsheet yet for the 96 - 100 spells, but it goes as PJ said.
Non Critical to make it easier, using RoF T1 raid sleeves
Non Fire Core
MinDmg = DmgUnfocused * (1+lower limit worn focus) = DmgUnfocused * 1.35
MaxDmg = DmgUnfocused * (1+upper limit worn focus) = DmgUnfocused * 2
Under Fire core
MinDmg = DmgUnfocused * (1+lower limit worn focus+lower limit FC) = DmgUnfocused * 2.1
MaxDmg = DmgUnfocused * (1+upper limit worn focus+upper limit FC) = DmgUnfocused * 3.25
This has held true ever since I started using it at level 65. I don't think any of the base calculations have changed.

Re: Vapor core + First spire + Glyph of Courage?
& What's the max amount a Crit can amplify damage by?
Looking at my own parses, my max hits are like 210 ...
30,000 base x 3.25 from both foccii, = 97,000 , plus type 3 aug & spell dmg amounts
So I guess it's 200%?
Do we reach that cap with just our passive aa's and a glyph of cataclysm? bc I've never seen myself go past 210'ish... My own parses are self buffs only with glyph, and Im hitting 210.
What is our Passive increase to crit damage, from just aa, anyway? %

Re: Vapor core + First spire + Glyph of Courage?
Like I said Crit DMG does not have a cap (or if it does we have not yet hit it). The highest it goes now is 250% from Illusions of Grandeur.
Re: Vapor core + First spire + Glyph of Courage?
So going off what PJ just posted, your max crit under Fire Core would be:
MaxDmgNonCrit + DmgUnfocused*(1+2.5)
Using your 30K base in your example:
30000*3.25 + 30000*(3.5) = 202500
Of course that's off a little because you have to put in SD and type 3's in there somewhere.

Re: Vapor core + First spire + Glyph of Courage?
I had missed this in Wire's guide, answers my question.
Unlike critical chance modifiers, damage modifiers do not stack for direct damage spells. Regardless of the slot each effect is in, only the largest will have any effect. Therefore, one should aim to stagger effects featuring critical damage modifiers.
