So the idea is to have a total of 6 buffed chaos bolts instead of the normal max 4.
Of course you have to make sure you have both immolate and rain of fire up and their is some rmg involved since their is no guarantee you will get the embers
If using backdraft on a chaos bolt will let you either:
a) Avoid capping on Embers, or
b) get a Chaos Bolt out with procs up that it wouldn't otherwise have had
Then it's worth it to do.
