"Pure Agony" "+5 Maximum Virulence" Bugged - Won't give you +5 Max

The medium cluster jewel node "Pure Agony" does not add 5 virulence stacks as it supposed to.

After getting 2 of the "Pure Agony" nodes from cluster jewels, my virulence stacks still tops at 40 stacks instead of 50.

The other affixes on the node is working.

Checking couple more times, I think it works but 40-50 range goes down very quickly so I haven't noticed. Sorry for the post.

Nah this was working perfectly before the patch yesterday, I was getting 60 stacks and it would stay around there for 90% of a boss fight. Now I sit at 37, they broke it with yesterdays patch.

same for me, just added my second jewel with pure agony, cannot go past 40 max, tested it on atziri

Yea, there is definitely something wrong with it. It's like + virulence stacks are not there at all, even tho I poison a group of 20 monsters, it always stays in the 30-40 range.

Definitely broken right now.

Yep, broken :(

Yeah, I'm getting the same thing I can't get past 40 stacks on a single target no matter what I do.

Seems to be still broken. Any news on this?

Edit: Nevermind. It works now. But why does one nowhere get the information that the duration seems to exponentially slower or some shit like that?! Also the 30% slower expiration from Disciples seems to be either not doing anything at all or not be stacking.

Having to try stuff like that by investing a ton of currency and time into a build and than seeing it does not work is very frustrating.

It says right there in the Herald of Agony skill description:

"

You will lose Virulence over time, at a rate which increases the more Virulence you have.
