What platform are you running Path of Building on?
Windows
What is the value from the calculation in-game?
I am honestly not sure what the DPS should be, but whatever it should be is not negative ~200k.
What is the value from the calculation in Path of Building?
Combined DPS reads -223,411.9 on an unsupported wildstrike of the extremes on a fairly middle of the road str/int inquis stack build.
How to reproduce the issue
I honestly have no idea. I took a mid-geared energy blade base, removed the energy blade gem and slapped wild strike of the extremes on it, ended up with negative DPS. I feel like this shouldn't happen.
PoB for PoE1 build code

Research direction
Start with the linked PoB build and reproduce the negative Combined DPS for Wild Strike of the Extremes. Trace the resistance calculation and damage result for values above 100%, then verify that the reported damage is no longer negative while checking the affected calculation against the in-game behavior.
