Poison Arrow, AOE

Hi all!

I want to know some things:

1 - why conc effect not show my total damage on poison arrow "cloud" (dot dmg)? Since it effect AOE and mana cost.

2 - All skills that increased AOE support will show that % increased AOE on tooltip, but the passive points on tree doesn't show. I have like 20% increased AOE from tree and lets say 20% from lvl 7 increased AOE gem, total is 40%, but my tooltip just show the 20% from gem.
Where can I see my total AOE/increased AOE?

-EDIT:
Hyrri's doesn't have his 10% AOE showing too...

First of all I'm not sure about AoE effects showing on the tool tip. But since they deal with area damage and not DPS, it isn't as big of a problem as the DoT DPS not showing.

DoT DPS from Poison Arrow and Puncture does not appear anywhere in the tool tip DPS -- nether from the skill gems nor from the passive tree. The DPS shown on the tool tip for these skills is just for the initial hit. Taking increased DoT passive skills like Entropy do nothing to your DPS.

There are other skills that have these same issues and I'm not sure why GGG doesn't step up to the plate and fix/improve the info/DPS reporting of these skills.

Skill tooltip shows only bonuses from support gems, you can see your total increased radius on char screen when you select poison arrow (misc tab, I believe). It's not a bug, it's supposed to be that way.

Don't worry, conc effect works. It was different once, before the DoT mechanic rework conc effect reduced radius but didn't boost damage. The game is fairly consistent these days and there are no major bugs of such nature, if you see the gem linked properly it will apply all relevant bonuses. In other words, if the support should work according to the game rules - it will, even if char screen or tooltip don't show it.

Poison arrow has on skill tooltip "deals xxx chaos damage per second". This damage scale with chaos damage, damage over time, etc... Why not show the total amount with conc effect? Thats what I want to know... Why not, since the damage will do to mobs, just put that on the string >.>

I know the damage works, I played with poison arrow some times, I just want to know why I need calc my damage since the game already do it >.<

Increased AOE isn't support gem? I didn't get this part...

Increased AoE support gem is not the only source of increased radius, but the tooltip on skill action bar will only show the increase that came from support gem (and sum it up with AoE bonus on the skill gem if any, like the quality bonus on ice nova), that's intended, not a bug.
