FE is no longer a global damage boost, but an add-on to the damage your attacks do as extra fire damage. So it probably won't show up in the damage boost section.

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure it no longer buffs damage...instead it adds something like a 100% proc for bonus fire damage on top of attacks. Is this incorrect?
Fiery Embrace is Incendiary Ammo for your fists, but better. It adds fire damage based on the damage of your attack. Example: My 50 Fire/Fire brute's Greater Fire Sword (with Build Up and Fiery Embrace) does 3 numbers: 190/200/205, all at once. No damage buff, damage add.

according to its info on the game its still a self+damage. maybe its in need of an information overhaul after thes changes.cause agt the end of the day idk what the heck it is anymore. even call to justice has the same +damage only its pbaoe not self and that show up.
its confusing now.
Heh. The in-game descriptions are often neglected as powers are changed. Unfortunately, the best way to find what a power does goes back to the detailed info tab, as the descriptors tend to be fuzzy/old at times.
Sometimes I wish such UI elements had a bit higher priority.
For a less knowledgeable person, the in-game description is still good. It is a power that adds damage to your attacks. The best bet to see what it is doing is to watch your combat logs on damage delivered. There will be an extra line of damage on each hit while FE is up. FE is very, very potent now.

ahh nice ill have to look into that thanks.

This is actually better in some situations than the old power, actually. If you're at the damage cap, the new FE will actually let you do more damage, since it's basically acting as a proc. The old FE wouldn't do anything for you at that point.

Not to get OT but how does one call up that stat screen in-game? It seems that I missed the memo on that.
the 'powers' button on your power tray opens up a window that, at the top, has a button named "combat attributes".

Note that you can right-mouse on up to ten individual attributes on that list and select the "monitor" option to place them in a tidy little window that stays open while you play. This is VERY handy for stats that change, or the Rage crash, or for monitoring your "last chance to hit" to know when you're debuffed, and so on.

I've been playing on and off for a while (39+ months of play time over the past 5 yrs) but now that no RL friends play, I sometimes miss things like this.
IIRC the new effect of FE is a 45% fire damage proc. That 45% is buffable by +damage effects like build up or inspirations.
So a 100 damage attack, slotted 95% with damage IOs would deal 195 damage plus 45 fire damage.(total 230)
The same attack, with build up active, would deal 275 damage plus 81 fire damage.(total 356)
This is higher than the old 160% damage buff you would have with old FE and BU. ( for a total of 255)

hey question..whats up with f.e.?
i was on my fire/fire tank last night and have a 17% global damage bonus.on topd of that i use b.u. and f.e. and now call to arms and noticed that my damage bonus didnt seem to get any higher.
so i looked at my combat attributes ( i monitor damage ,recovery and a couple others) and saw that f.e. doesnt actually how up after its activated.
is this a bug?..is it broke?..what gives?
heres a screenie of it running with b.u. and yet its not listed. :/
