Is there a problem with cyclone mark chaos conversion and thermite./ hellfire mine?

Cyclone Mark says it converts 100% of chaos damage to lightning. But Thermie mine makes no chaos damage. hellfire mine does… When I run thermie and hellfire, neither seems to get the conversion…

Please Help?

Conversion never mentions the mods in the respective text.
But ofc hellfire will get converted by the medal.

Cyclone Mark does what it says it does - converts chaos to lightning on the Mines. You get chaos from Hellfire Mines node. It’s not like “neither gets conversion.” It’s still the one and the same skill.

BTW you can’t sustain 4 totems with nothing but global cooldown reduction. Halakor amulet is no good there.

Thanks. I guess my question was why does the 100% conversion to lighting on my mortar trap from my wand show up in the mortar trap skill as lightning damage, when the conversion on hellfire mine does not? How do I determine how much lightning my hellfire mine is generating?

“BTW you can’t sustain 4 totems with nothing but global cooldown reduction. Halakor amulet is no good there.” I realize that, but halakor also helps with mortar. What would you recomend other than Halakor for this build?

No way except to work it out by hand using the skill’s base damage and your % damage bonuses.

That said, when it comes to conversion, skill tooltips are sadly not consistent and even when they are, it is often not a true interpretation of the skill’s final damage when compared to the corresponding damage breakdown so you can often just ignore it.
