Are there any updates on this issue? It's really beyond comprehension that a gem that reads "deals chaos damage" doesn't scale with increases to chaos damage.

On that same note: There are more issues with Curses as well. 4 nodes providing "100% increase to curse radius" boost a curse from 1.6m to 2.2m radius.
Did I miss something in math classes or is there some weird formula at work and this is an intended consequence?

I know this is a necro, but yes, you missed something in math class. The nodes you are referring to increase the area, not the radius. Since area scales with the square of the radius, the radius will not double if the area doubles. Rather, the radius will multiply by the square root of 2.

1.6m * sqrt(2) ~ 2.2m

Working as intended.
