Does the consecrated ground effect from Bottled Faith (Consecrated Ground created during Effect applies (7-10)% increased Damage taken to Enemies) stack with Holy Flame totems enchant (Consecrated Ground created with Holy Flame Totem applies 9% increased Damage taken to Enemies) if I stack both of them on top of each other? Or does one override the other?
Something can only be affected by a single area of consecrated ground at a time (the ground doesn't stack). If you create the ground around a totem when not under the effect of the flask, then drink the flask and create a second patch of ground while under it's effect, only one can apply to any given enemy. But if you summon a Holy Flame Totem during the flask's effect, that ground patch is created affected by both modifiers, and will thus apply (16-19)% increased damage taken to enemies in it.
Those passives, both the AoE for spell skills, and the AoE conditional on killing things recently, do apply to Righteous Fire. It's hard to notice, espesciually if you have other area modifiers which they'll stack additively with, but they do make it larger - just not by a huge amount.
do increases to global area of effect (such as from the passive tree) increase the radius of its proliferation?
Yes, such modifiers apply to the area the ailment is spread in.
Because IPS has an AoE tag
No, that is not because of the tag on the gem. The gem has the tag because it applies an area of effect, not the other way around.
Yesterday we talked about our plans for this week's patch. We expect to deploy the 3.6.2 patch tomorrow (Friday NZDT). We managed to add quite a number of improvements and completed fixes to this update, so today we're ready to share a preview of its patch notes with you.
We've just introduced the Lava Aura Effect which replaces the standard effect of an Aura gem with a burning hot and molten one.
We're continuing to work on improvements for recent content, based on your feedback. We're planning to release the 3.6.2 patch by the end of this working week, which contains a lot of Betrayal changes as well as whatever Synthesis ones are ready.
