Herald of Ash

The fire damage is. The Burn is not, burns are not buffs.
Same for HoI, just with cold damage, obviously.

Does Conec Effect work with this skill?
Does Fire Penetration linked to HoA do anything?
What about Iron Will?

Yes. Herald's Ignite is caused by an AoE, thus it should count as AoE Damage. Damage output shouldn't ever be a problem though.

No. Pen is an on-Hit effect, the Ignite doesn't Hit anything.

No. Iron Will grants Increased Spell Damage based on Strength, Ignite is Fire Damage over Time. Both Damage over Time and Spell Damage are Base types, and thus mutually exclusive. Ignite can never deal Spell Damage, because it is already Damage over Time.

A bit of feedback:

I play Reduced Mana - Hatred - HoA - Ele prolif on both my crit archer and my crit dagger. And I find this combo way too powerful on archers. One lucky frenzy/puncture shot and you melt down entire packs. It also works well with tornado shot / split arrow despite the less modifiers applied by their support.

We often see players complaining about the state of melee in the game, the fact that it's sensibly lagging behind range builds for clear speed. One thing that could be done to reduce this problem is too limit HoA to melee, or at least its overkill burn damage. This provides a good AOE for melee skills. But the problem would probably remain for RT builds that can't hit as hard as crit build.

When two witches watch two watches, which witch watches which watch?
If the witches watching watches watch the same watch while you watch which witch watches which watch, they switch watches; then, the watch switching witches watch which watch you watch.
Watching witches watch watches is not for the faint of heart...
Why doesn't it work with Explosive Arrow ?
EA's explosion isn't an Attack.
Does anyone know if culling will work on the ignite of HoA. If the enemy's hp is brought below 10% because of the ignite of HoA will culling kick if it is linked to HoA. Also will IIR and IIQ work on HoA if the ignite is what caused the kill
culling never worked for DoT. culling only applies to hits. DoTs do not hit.
Thanks soul4. Anyone got an answer for the support gems that increase rarity and quality? Or do those not work for DoT either?

IIQ and IIR work, right now using EleProlif instead of IIR, but tested IIR and works ( they both show on the tooltip) ; they apply only to the kills due to the HoA ignite dmg, as far as I can tell.

Question: I've been thinking of switching out IIQ for another support gem for higher dmg, but what could I use? It's already supported by IncrAoE (from Marohi ) ,EleProlif, IncrBurningDmg. Would Increased Duration work? Or what else?
