Chaos Magic - Chaotic Fury

Hello fellow Control Wizards.

I'm thinking of respeccing into a MoF Rene once again for the buffs.

I was re-reading the capstone effect of Chaotic Fury: +30% additional damage and +10% lifesteal for 10 seconds.

My questions are:
1) Is the 30% damage increase multiplicative to total damage output?
2) Is the damage increase capped in some way (referencing recent discussions to debuff caps)?
3) With an uptime of 1/3, does this theoretically increase total party damage by 10%?
4) Following on from 3), with another Chaos Mage in the party, does Chaotic fury stack? If it does not, will it still increase uptime to 5/9 of the time and hence increase theoretical total party damage output by 16.6r%?

    1) Yes.
    2) No (buffs aren't capped as far as I can tell.)
    3) No.
    4) This is more correct, however, it is not entirely correct. If you hit with an AoE and multiple targets are damaged, it has a chance to proc multiple times at the same time, however, if 1 buff is already up, it is unable to proc. This means the chance is somewhere between 5/9 and 1/3.

    Actually for 4 I run MoF renegade and my buddy runs SS renegade we regularly proc 2 of something usually growth and something else.

    You can proc all 3 at once. I used to do it all the time when I had an MOF rene. As was mentioned, I think the trick is to hit lots of stuff with AoEs, so fully charged Scorching Bursts, ST's, CoI's, Oppressive Force, etc. But once you tag something with one or more of the buffs, I'm pretty sure it has to fall off before another one can proc.

    Is Chaotic Nexus still bugged?

    As far as I know, it is not working completely. Did they fix this?
