Deadly Ailments is a support gem that grants more damage with ailments but the initial hit deals less damage.
Skill Functions and Interactions
While counter-intuitive, damage with hits and with ailments are calculated independently, with modifiers to hit damage not interacting with the hit's ailments in any way. This means that for the purpose of a damaging ailment inflicted by a skill supported by this gem, the less damage with hits part can be ignored.
For example, let's consider an ignite inflicted by a hit of 100 base damage.
Without this support gem, the hit would deal 100 damage, then the ignite would burn for 90 damage per second over 4 seconds, for a total of 100 + 90 * 4 = 460 damage.
With the support factored in, the hit would only deal 20 damage, but the ignite would still be based on the 100 damage it would've dealt without the hit damage modifier, and then increased by the 44% more damage with ailments, to 129 damage per seconds, for a total of 20 + 129 * 4 = 536 damage.
An other interesting point concerns the divergent quality version of the gem. The more damage with hits part is additive with the less damage with hits part, which means that at 20% quality, the gem would now give 40% less damage with hits. This can be pushed further, for example, socketing the gem in Atziri's DisfavourAtziri's Disfavour

- Atziri, Queen of the Vaal, which gives +30% to quality of socketed support gems, would result in the gem giving 20% more damage with hits, negating its downside. This however would still not affect the ailments damage whatsoever.
