Mechanics

  • Enemies Ignited by you take Chaos Damage instead of Fire Damage from Ignite – This modifier causes enemies that the character ignites to take all damage over time from ignite as chaos damage instead of fire damage. It functions as a "damage taken as" effect (NOT conversion), which shifts how the target resists damage. This means that the fire damage over time inflicted by the character's ignites is still scaled with the usual modifiers, such as Fire Damage over Time Multiplier, but it is resisted by the enemy's chaos resistance rather than by their fire resistance.
    • This allows scaling with Withered and Chaos Resistance reductions like Despair. On the other hand, you no longer gain scaling from Fire Resistance reductions like Combustion Support or Exposure, and consequently lose damage scaling for Flame Surge and Alchemist's Mark.
    • Increased and more multipliers to Chaos Damage and Chaos Damage over Time do not apply as Ignites still inherently deal Fire Damage only.
  • When used with The Fulcrum, this item will cause Ignites reflected to you to be taken as Chaos Damage, meaning they deal no damage to you if you have Chaos Inoculation.
