Multiple Dark Ideation (Cluster jewel notable) instances doesnt stack

Allocating new cluster jewel notable Dark Ideation in passive tree have no effect on tooltip of Toxic Rain. Not sure if its not working or just a tooltip display bug. Need clarification or fix. https://imgur.com/a/8HlEQkS

*Patch 3.10.0e - Still doesnt stack properly. Can we get a fix please?

What does the real tooltip say? The one in your offence tab? Tooltips are notoriously unreliable but the ones in the skill bar are less accurate than the ones in the offence tab.

Spore pods dps doesnt have any "real" tooltip. The only dot dps tooltip of this skill in the game is on this screenshot and for some reason its not affected by this exact DI notable at all. Lets do some tests.

I have 3 DI notables available currently. 2 On large clusters and 1 on medium.
I took lvl 1 gems such as Caustic Arrow (CA), Essence Drain (ED), Desecrate, Blight and my main skill Toxic rain (lvl 21). No links was used. I have 3139 max mana (DI should add 62% increased chaos damage). Here are some interesting results.

No DI allocated:
TR dot dps - 4907.4
CA dot dps - 136.8
ED dot dps - 328
ED hit damage - 53-83 chaos damage
Desecrate dot dps - 87.4
Blight dot dps - 32.9

1 DI allocated:
TR dot dps - 5289.2
CA dot dps - 147.4
ED dot dps - 362.3
ED hit damage - 59-91 chaos damage
Desecrate dot dps - 96.4
Blight dot dps - 36.3

2 DI allocated:
TR dot dps - 5400
CA dot dps - 150.6
ED dot dps - 372.3
ED hit damage - 60-94 chaos damage
Desecrate dot dps - 99
Blight dot dps - 37.3

3 DI allocated:
TR dot dps - 5400
CA dot dps - 150.6
ED dot dps - 372.3
ED hit damage - 60-94 chaos damage
Desecrate dot dps - 99
Blight dot dps - 37.3

Numbers were triple checked. All those skills have different tags resulting to different % gains. This is fine, works as intended. However second DI adds significantly less % increases. Third DI straight useless. The order of DI allocation is irrelevant, i tried all combinations (large-large-medium, medium-large-large etc.) - all give same results. I believe all 3 DI instances should add same 62% increase to base skill % values pool. I hope you will find this information useful.

Same issue.
Skill used is Essence Drain.

Without DI i got 34.385 dmg
With 1 DI i got 37.618 dmg
With 2 DI i got 39.359 dmg
With 3 DI i still got 39.359 dmg

GGG halp

Same issue for me with Bane and Blight.
Only the first 2 DI's give a damage increase on my tooltip.

So unless im missing something, this works just like it says, and also stacks.

The thing is, that this(unlike a certain herald passive) has a hard cap on the % increase you can get, 80%. When stacking multiple passives, the only thing that will stack is the 2% increased chaos damage, and not the cap. Thats the reason your second DI doesnt give you that much of a boost. In reality its only giving you 18%, not 62%, filling out the cap of 80%, which the first one couldnt do.

Imo, this is fair and balanced, and how things should be.

Damn, that would make sense...

Can we get a response from GGG just to make sure tho plz?

But why would it work like that? There are no other jewels that work like this afaik. You are probably right in how it currently works, but that definitely doesnt sound for me like its intended in any way.
Also i dont feel like its overpowered in any ways. Taking two large clusters is already a huge investition, furthermore you need to stack that mana, wasting any dmg potential on gear again. You just wasting so much on tree and gear. I wasnt sure about tradeoffs even considering i will get full 80% *4 as i expected.

GGG, any clarification on this? Or i should go on reddit because you cant track your own bug reports forum unlike of social media?

Go on reddit mate im with ya :D

You can stack all of the others since they don't impose a cap in their description, that's why this one is an exception.,.Bad one, but still
