Path of Exile: Conquerors of the Atlas Gem Information

Please help me understand the damage scaling of Shrapnel Ballista: On the conquerers page you showed us a lvl 2 gem with 40,5% base damage. Now the lvl 20 gem has 38% base damage. Is this negative gem scaling really a thing now, or did somebody have a typing error?

Thanks for clarification, as I really wanted to play that skill. At least 48% base damage seems reasonable.

are the Awakened Support Gems the Support Gems "Plus" from Exilecon or is there a difference?

Yes, they just renamed them.

Awakened Chain, Curse on Crit and Ancestral Call are crazy. The others are strong but not so far from their normal counterparts

Spell cascade basically foubles its casts... From 2 extra to 4 extra... (Sides now too)

Which is kinda huge as well?

What sort of alarm do i have to set up to wake up my gems?.?

I'm confused about Explosive arrow. Judging from the description, the initial arrows don't do damage at all, only damage comes from the explosions? Or am I reading something wrong?

most of them are fine, not rly op. Tbh i expected most Awakaned gems to be stronger. Except Awakened spell cascade :D you broke that one badly, now i cannot wait to do Poets Pen VD (and yes that 60 cap is so justified by that cascade gem)
nice job guys !

Can i use both normal and awakened gems in 1 setup? like added lightning damage + awakened added lightning damage?

According to Mark on Reddit, no. They don't stack.

Look like some fun fun

I have a build that uses Elemental Damage With Attacks + Physical Damage + Melee Splash + Multistrike... Hmm... I hope I can get my hands on these lovely gems.
