Inspiring Ally not working for various sources (bug id: 3,609,317,722)
Inspiring Ally is not working for a variety of effects. I'm including solely "Increased Damage" modifiers, seeing as it's unclear whether more specific ones like "Increased Attack Damage" should work.
Short list: - Sceptre Prefix Modifier: Allies in your Presence deal 41% Increased Damage - Primate Talisman: Allies in your Presence deal 30% Increased Damage - Leer Cast Helmet: Allies in your Presence deal 50% increased Damage - Necromantic Talisman: Ronder of Fragility with "37% increased Damage" - Jewel: Minions Deal 11% Increased Damage Neither of these work, and from the skill description they should. If the conditions are actually more narrow, please update the description Last bumped on May 20, 2025, 9:49:29 PM

- Upwelling Support gem (on staff's Discipline) raises the Companion Attack damage, but your own remains unaffected.

" Meanwhile the descritpion: Increases and Reductions to Companion Damage also apply to you Specifically companion damage, not every damage increase that can affect your companion(s). |

" You are right, based on how PoE presents this information, but it defies language consistency in applicability of broader stats only goes in one direction. Consider a plain language interpretation of a node that reads "% Increased Damage to Minions" and it results in your companions causing increased damage - because Minions are Companions. Logic would dictate that if Companion Damage was raised, then it'd trigger Inspiring Ally. I *know* that's not how PoE describes things, and it's embarassing that after 10+ years, I would still bump into this. :) But that's one more argument to support the notion that the way PoE does this, hinges on a very particular way of parsing its descriptions, rather than what'd be the natural understanding of a sentence. I sense people might defensive, so let me put it differently. :) If this node was indeed supposed to be affected by any increases in damage done by companions - but not other types of minions - what would be the description? IMHO, if the purpose is to explain the behaviour to all users, here's other ways to put it: - Increases and Reductions to Damage that apply solely to Companions also apply to you - Increases and Reductions to Damage that specifically affect Companions also apply to you |
