Can Boneshatter's self-damage be converted(physical to cold, for example) or critically strike?

It cannot be converted because self-damage does not come from your/your skill's stats - if it did all your increased/more damage modifiers would also apply to it. For similar reasons it cannot crit, but stats on you can affect the crit chance of hits you take, so despite it not being able to roll a crit, in theory a future stat that caused all hits you take to be critical strikes would apply.

Level Effect

Boneshatter Sound Design

• Composer: Javier.

This is a new melee skill released in Expedition League to wreak havoc in Wraeclast. I wanted it to have a really satisfying gritty sound each time you hit, rather than just a big impact. I took the Boneshatter name as inspiration and went full ‘ASMR’' on that bone cracking. The main impact sound was made from a mix of bullet and hammered wall impacts with rocks, marble, celery, styrofoam and rupture sounds. The charge up was a buzzing, spark, energy mix. And the shockwave was made with wind and dirt movements, focusing on the high end to be less present and leave more space in the lows and mids for the impact to be really felt.

Is Boneshatter bugged? It looks like its shockwave doesn't trigger sometimes.

The short answer is no. There are some mechanical shortfalls of the way Stun currently works. GGG has plans to improve how this works in the future but it most likely won't happen during 3.15's patch series. GGG has also seen reports that Boneshatter's weapon range isn't scaling correctly. GGG has investigated this and found that it is scaling correctly but the visual representation of it isn't clear enough.

Skill functions and interactions

Hitting an enemy with Boneshatter will grant you a Trauma stack, giving you more damage (2% to 4%) with the skill. However, you will also take Physical Damage per Trauma stack.

Repeated attacks from Multistrike Support support will not give you additional Trauma stacks.

The damage taken per Trauma stack counts as a hit, which means that skills like Vengeance will trigger. It also allows your armour prevent some of the physical damage taken. However, the damage cannot be blocked.

Each Trauma stack counts as an individual buff, giving the skill good synergy with unique items like Mantra of Flames. This most likely occurs because each Trauma stack has its own independent duration.

With a level 20 gem and N current Trauma stacks, you will take 194*(N+1) physical damage (before damage mitigation) upon your next attack.

Damage conversions do not affect self-damage type. However, modifiers like #% of Physical Damage from Hits taken as Fire Damage will convert the taken damage equal to the %. Trauma has no crit roll, and can only crit you if hits you take always crit you.

PoE Boneshatter Skill Build 3.15

Boneshatter strikes your enemies with a forceful blow. If an enemy is stunned by this attack, a powerful shockwave is released. The area of effect of the shockwave is determined by the duration of the stun you inflicted.

Each time you use Boneshatter against an enemy, you take physical damage and gain a Trauma stack. The more stacks you have, the more damage Boneshatter will deal to both you and your enemies. This self-damage mechanic makes the Juggernaut the ideal class for this skill because they have easy access to lots of armour to mitigate the downside. Also, the Juggernaut has Ascendancy passives that grant increased stun duration which help make sure the shockwave is as large as possible.
