[1.1.5.2] Discuss about fire summoner \ Ring of Khonsar

I will assume you have not tested this build. Because afaik, double conversion never happens, even on pets.

I haven’t tested it yet I bet that’s how it will work in game, it’s not ‘double conversion’ afaik - they should happen at different stages of conversion (skill specific conversion modifiers from items takes place before global conversion). I assume skill specific conversion modifiers from items should work like transmuters from masteries, and that way it will work as I outlined.

The only problem could be: you confirm that skill specific conversion modifiers from items happen at the same stage or after global conversion :thinking:

Well, test and let us know. Standard mechanics are that a damage may never be converted more than once, regardless of the priority of the step.

I had a little too much time on my hands today.

How would you even go about testing pet damage type? Do you know a way? There’s no obvious way that I can think of (the only being, stacking RR or damage bonus of that specific type on dummies and looking if the damage increases noticeably )

Damn, I just tested it and it doesn’t work the way I thought it would - rip full flame damage conjurer :sob:. The physical -> lightning damage doesn’t then get converted to fire

You could still get full fire damage on your briarthorns if you rely on the Khonsar procs and Burning Blade of Korvaak but I think thats gonna be way suboptimal :frowning:

edit: that’s it, I’m shelving pet builds and moving to something else for now :sob:

Yeah I did but I was wrong, for some reason I thought it worked like Oathkeeper’s Summon Guardians of Empyrion - but super wrong :frowning:

Was busy with Ice Cream…

Dat ambitious Double Conversion tho :stuck_out_tongue:

Also with Guardians, afaik the transmuter just gives you completely different units instead of just converting their dmg. Nothing like that for pets, sadly :frowning:
