 Multiple Rain of Fires in the same location [b]stack[/b]. Each RoF will deal damage to the affected targets separately. They [i]do not[/i] share the same tick-time when they overlap. Essentially, each RoF is a separate DoT on each individual target within the affected area. (Note however, that they do not benefit from Pandemic like they used to.)

 Warning, theorycrafting below:
 
 For the purposes of this theorycrafting, we can ignore all stats because they have a symmetrical affect on the damage of both spells. Mastery increases both, Haste has no impact on Damage done for both, Crit increases the damage of both by the same amount (due to CB's crit scaling). Versatility is also symmetrical. Thus, we can drop them from our calculations, and all we need to care about is % Spellpower:
 
-Rain of Fire deals 444% Spellpower over 8 ticks. Therefore, each tick does 55.5% Spellpower as damage.
-Chaos Bolt deals 366.3% Spellpower. Due to auto-crit it will always deal 732.6% Spellpower.
+Rain of Fire deals 577.2% Spellpower over 8 ticks. Therefore, each tick does 72.15% Spellpower as damage.
+Chaos Bolt deals 399.237% Spellpower. Due to auto-crit it will always deal 798.534% Spellpower.
 
 However, we have one more complication, in that RoF consumes 3 Soul Shards to Chaos Bolt's 2. Therefore, for the cost of 1 Rain of Fire we could cast 1.5 Chaos Bolts. Thus, we need to apply this modifier to Chaos Bolt so we're on even-terms per Soul Shard consumed. Now:
 
-RoF deals  55.5% SP per Tick for 3 Soul Shards
-CB "deals" 1098.9% SP for 3 Soul Shards
+RoF deals  72.15% SP per Tick for 3 Soul Shards
+CB "deals" 1197.801% SP for 3 Soul Shards
 
-Thus, 1098.9/55.5 is the number of ticks required for RoF to come out ahead. This comes out to be 19.8 ticks. Since we know RoF ticks 8 times, and we need 19.8 ticks, we need 19.8/8 targets for all 7 ticks for RoF to come out ahead.
+Thus, 1197.801/72.15 is the number of ticks required for RoF to come out ahead. This comes out to be 16.6 ticks. Since we know RoF ticks 8 times, and we need 16.6 ticks, we need 16.6/8 targets for all 7 ticks for RoF to come out ahead.
 
-Thus, we need [b]2.475[/b] targets present for all 8 ticks of a Rain of Fire for RoF to be better than an un-Havoc'd Chaos Bolt. [I]This in effect means that RoF is better if you have 2 targets present for the entire RoF, and a third target present for at least half of the duration.[/I]
+Thus, we need [b]2.075[/b] targets present for all 8 ticks of a Rain of Fire for RoF to be better than an un-Havoc'd Chaos Bolt. [I]This in effect means that RoF is better if you have 2 targets present for the entire RoF, and a third target for one or two ticks.[/I]
