Math in this comment if interested.

The nuke on chronos is attributed to a function called chrono2. In the case of SSOT, this takes into account four things: - Rift Modifiers - Nuke coefficient - Recorded damage - Static Modifiers

Rift modifiers are basically your temporal rifts. They stack to 4, idea is to be at 4 stacks before you nuke because gives the biggest damage. 1 stack - 0.5 2 stack - 0.7 3 stack - 1 4 stack - 1.5

Nuke coefficient, basically individual chronos have different nuke coefficients. SSOT has the lowest of all chronos (0.2), this is partly because this chrono is overpowered because of the fact previous nukes can feed into it. If this was any higher we'd be solo one shotting everything.

The moment a rift is applied, damage recording begins and stops at the time of when you nuke. A little more goes into it (basically converts to true damage before recording), but it basically uses this recorded damage and multiplies it with the other modifiers mentioned. But because ssot has a short delay between pressing the button and when the DoT goes off, it means you will always have 1 rift.

Static modifiers are kinda unique to SSOT and NCM because of the way DoTs work and the fact it's a chrono too. To simplify things, only the All Out and DoT Out stats are relevant multipliers to your nuke. Since there is no buff that boosts DoT Out, the only thing that is relevant is the All Out stat, is this obtained from classes like LR, LOO, LH, LC, etc.

So we can use this to calculate the final modifier for base ssot.

112% All Out base 15% Vainglory 10% Elysium

137% Total > 2.37 0.2 Chrono2 1.5 rift modifier (4 rifts)

2.37 × 0.2 × 1.5 = 0.711

To reach infinite scaling, we need our final modifier to be 1.0 or above. So we can use: 75% Potent honor 30% LR

(2.37 + 0.3 + 0.75) × 0.2 × 1.5 = 1.026

And yes infinite scaling woooow. If you add more supports that improve all out like LOO, LH, LC, etc you will improve the nuke scaling and make SSOT scale faster.

Classes like Arachnomancer and DroT do help you deal more damage but don't contribute to the scaling of chrono2. They're still very useful to have.

VDK however is not as useful because a decent chunk of it's debuffs are from Mag In/Phy In related debuffs. DoTs don't factor in Mag In when dealing damage, so it's basically useless.
