What 2pc T19 does is add 20% to every Enhanced Pyrotechnics stack, making it 30%. Meaning with 2pc you can be at 40.01% crit and worse case get a crit in 3 fireball casts, without 2pc T19, you could potentially go 7 fireball casts to get a crit.
You also need to remember those Legendary Bracers layer RNG on top of existing RNG. It procs from using Hot Streaks, HS's are dependent on crits to create. Then outside of Combustion, those bracer procs may or may not crit. So most pulls, be average, some pulls due to no procs will be awful, others due to many procs will be awesome. Personally hate bracers due to layered RNG they create, it's entirely too possible to kill 4-5 farm bosses and every one of those pulls suffer from shitastic bracer procs and have low DPS as a result.
RNG has also eluded them in that they don't have legendary belt. That is a crit engine <30% boss HP.
They could try using Firestarter over Pyromaniac, delay combust until boss is <90% hp's
