Has anyone tested if the legendary ability is an additive or multiplicative with +meteor roll on helm/boots/source? Consider that even the base +100% legendary effect of Nilfur does not show up on the sheet meteor damage.
Had an interesting ancient Nilfur drop that made me think of this question:
Current Nilfur:
593 Int
618 Vit
120 AR
+15% Meteor (reroll)
153% Legendary ability
Recent Nilfur drop:
583 Int
129 AR
479 Armor
+12% Arcane Torrent (non rerolled yet)
196% Legendary ability
If Nilfur's legendary ability is additive, then I may be inclined to roll the skill roll on the new boots to Vit for a high toughness set of boots. Would be a win-win in that the 153%+15% is still far less than the 196% on the new boots.
If it is multiplicative, then I'll take 6% toughness drop and use the new boots with a +15% meteor reroll or simply keep using my old ones in case i ever want an AT version of Nilfurs.

Your thoughts are appreciated.
Even if it's multiplicative, it's less. 153x1.15 = 176%
If that's indeed how it works then say the meteor is going to do, for simplicity, 1 damage, and I have +54% meteor (including 15% on boots):
The 153% boots would do 3.90 damage
The 196% boots would do 4.56 damage (effectively 17% more damage)
The 196% (without rerolling for 15% meteor) would do 4.11 damage (effectively 5.5% more damage)
Wow thanks Blayreau!
I just got another Nilfur, this time non-ancient, but it looks like a good option and is what I'm trying out right now:
498 int
477 vit
98 AR
15% Meteor (rerolled)
196%
Comparison stats on the ancient boots from my previous post:
+0.7% damage
-2.5% toughness
Pretty decent compromise, only other consideration for the AR+Armor boots is the gain in ehp which has synergy with the Gizzard.
