Anyone test the fireball sorc with the witch power now active. Is it dog water on single target still?
i would test it but the dang armory is still disabled.

Same… I have my build and gear saved - but without armory I’m sure as heck not doing it and undoing what is currently working (for me to forget everything)
Yeah, thats why im asking lol. Im done with S7 but I would definitely get back on for fireball. It was one of my fav builds in S5 but you couldnt kill single target bosses without spending a tremendous amount of time hitting them like a wet noodle
i have it saved so i am not going to ditch a build that works for one that probably won’t. it’s a huge pita without the armory. sadly, kuna isn’t online to test it. 
Ah, linking here for reference, I didnt know about this.
Boy, the joke keeps getting both funnier & less funny at the same time…
I don’t use Fireball right now though, and with the Armory out, I cannot test.
But I tested with Incinerate, and the overall damage bump is nice for me right now (e.g. from max 12B Incinerate dps with the power off, to max 19B Incinerate dps with the power on). It’s odd as the Decay Augmentation DoT doesn’t appear as a DoT on the Health bar of the mob, and as such, cannot cause Execute, but it seems to increase Incinerate ticks by roughly the amount it should, so I guess it works?
Fireball doesn’t benefit from the “single cast” being potentially snapshotted like Incinerate does during channelling, but I guess that one Fireball wave out of two must mean that this power is roughly a 20% DPS increase or so at 100% Attack speed, especially if it considers the full damage of the hit (including the critical damage) as the base calculation for the DoT damage?
Edit : dps, not ticks
Yes they hotfixed it a couple hours ago.
Donno. But if the increase is only 20% it will still handle like a F build on single target.
