The item says it converts all physical and piercing damage into aether. But hovering over the righteous fervor skill shows that the damage remains with physical. Is it a visual bug or is the damage conversion really wrong? I’m building a righteous fervor templar with aether damage with two similar rutnik pistols. Am I doing something wrong?
seems to work fine on my end. there might be other conversions of other damage types from devotions and/or components at play, difficult to diagnose without seeing the entire build. you might want to upload your build to grimtools and post the link here.
still lvleling…lvl 70.
I need to download this grimtools?
the grimtools website; there are instructions on character import (top left corner), after that you can create a link to share (below character import).
Done…
the shoulders convert some of your flat aether (rutnick base damage, ‘warped’ affixes, aethersteel bolts, veilwarden ring) to phys. i wouldn’t worry about it too much while leveling, just something to worry about when properly min-maxing later on.
The problem is that the physical damage still remains in the righteous fervor skill… Shouldn’t this conversion that the pistol does have changed the damage to aether? I have other characters and the items were correctly converted to other elements…
All of the physical and fire damage is converted to aether, but some of the aether damage (from the ‘weapon damage’) is converted to physical by your shoulders. I bet if you take them off it’ll show no physical damage.
I removed this parts…and still showing 90% physical damage in righteous fervor…
Removing your shoulders as @Bas suggested results in no Physical Damage being displayed from Righteous Fervor:

damage can only be converted once.
I think you don’t understand what I’m writing. When I open the skills screen with the S key and place the mouse over the skill, it still shows the physical damage. Since the pistol is converting this physical damage, shouldn’t it have been replaced in the skill description?
I have other characters whose damage conversion works normally with the attributes changed to the new one.
it is in the game itself…not in grimtools.
you mean the %-damage directly on the righteous fervor base skill? that is never converted, only ever flat damage. (also ceno posted an image taken from the game, there is a tool to convert grimtools links back to character files)

I have other characters that are already level 100 and well equipped. One of them converts the damage from vitality into chaos. He is a character with doom bolt (void soul set) and the damage converted from vitality was completely converted to chaos on the game screen.
This is the first time I have seen damage not being converted on the game screen. So is the Templar Righteous Fervor build an unfeasible thing to do? I am struggling to kill on elite difficulty. I have never had so much difficulty with this type of damage…
No it doesn’t. This is also with your shoulders equipped.
If you, in your game, are seeing Physical Damage here instead, you may wish to verify your game files.
I removed the shoulder and ring and the arthersbolts on both pistols.
I’ve already reinstalled the game. This is the only character that shows physical damage instead of aether conversion. All my other characters have correctly converted damage.
tried unequippping the pistols and re-equipping?
reslotting the skill to the bar?
edit
for what it’s worth i just tried loading your build into 2 older versions of the game(1.2 and 9.8), and the tooltip still showed aether dmg like in Ceno’s screenshot.
makes me wonder if something is being missed, ingame or in the convo, (assuming verifying files didn’t fix it), or some mod/tool(rainbow filter?) is active etc
or if perhaps if it’s a “legacy” thing, incase this was like a really old save?
