Converting (more than?) all damage to fire, need help

Hi guys, I am a little bit confused right now about how this works.

Lets say I have 100 physical damage weapon
I use molten strike ( %60 physical converted to fire) linked to cold to fire (%50cold to fire)
%100 physical damage increase
%50 elemental damage increase
I take avatar of fire
I use hrimsorrow glove(%25 of physical converted to cold)
And for shield I use chernobogs pillar (%25 physical to fire)

what will be my damage ?

Hrimsorrows Covert your Physical Damage to Cold, not to Fire.
EDIT: ah, you fixed it.


You cannot Convert over 100% of a Damage type. Conversion from Skills is not scaled down, everything else will be scaled down to fit the remaining unconverted Damage.

60% Phys to Fire from Molten Strike stays as such.
50% Phys to Fire + 25% Phys to Fire + 25% Phys to Cold scales down to fit the remaining 40%.
40/100 = 0.4
50 * 0.4 = 20% Phys to Fire
25 * 0.4 = 10% Phys to Fire
25 * 0.4 = 10% Phys to Cold

90 Fire Damage, 10 Cold Damage

Cold to Fire adds 30% of Cold Damage as Fire Damage:
10 * 0.3 = 3

93 Fire Damage, 10 Cold Damage

50% Cold to Fire Conversion:
10 * 0.5 = 5

98 Fire Damage, 5 Cold Damage

Avatar of Fire negates all Cold Damage:

98 Fire Damage

All your Fire Damage is Converted from Physical, one way or another. As such, it benefits from both Physical and Fire Damage multipliers:

98 * (1 + (100/100) + (50/100)) = 245 Fire Damage


Removing the Hrimsorrows improves your Damage by 5 points, and allows you to drop the Cold to Fire gem.

well nice thanks ! That was everything I wanted to know. Thanks again
Oh, actually, I forgot that Avatar of Fire also Converts 50% Cold to Fire (totaling 100%), so you'd be dealing a tiny amount more Damage than what I had there.
103 * 2.5 = 257.5, rounds to 257 Fire Damage.
(not worth it :P )
