Gluttony belt causing some unexpected behaviours

EDIT: I've changed a bit the post and the title, because the more I test it and the more I don't understand what's going on.

Hey, I've been testing stuff around and I've built a character which should be immune to any source of damage (nothing new, I know).
- I have Chaos Innoculation (immune to chaos)
- I have 100% elemental resistances (immune to ele damage)
- I have 100% of physical damage converted to elemental (immune to phys damage)

Specifically, I convert the physical damage using a Lightning Coil (30% as cold), a Redblade helmet (10% as fire), a corrupted shield (8% as chaos or 8% as fire), Taste of Hate with 64% flask effect (32% as cold) and a Watcher's Eye with double mod (12% to cold, 8% as fire).

Even though I shouldn't take any damage, I still die when hit by whatever monster.

I'm leaving a PoB link: https://pastebin.com/fnZgzCKK
and the character link (ViperNaeH): https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/lallalaus/characters

EDIT:
I've done few additional tries, always with CI.
- With some ES (at least 1) I'm always immune to damage, whether I use the full elemental conversion or the phys-to-chaos shield. It works even if the ES is not actually protecting the life pool (Eldricth Battery)
- With 0 ES (without the gluttony belt) I am always immune to damage
- With 0 ES (with the Gluttony belt) I take damage from monsters, but I'm immune to the damage inflicted but gluttony itself (when using a movement skill)

I thought the problem was about the damage conversion, but apparently the situation is way more complicated. Definitely the Gluttony belt is causing some sort of unexpected behaviour, but I'm not able to understand what's actually going on.

Here's a video of few tests I did: https://youtu.be/ZY_yaf3JAlQ

I have tried replicating this, but was not able to get the same problem.

I got a shield with the physical to chaos damage shift corruption, and a healthy amount of ES. No other gear other than for attribute requirements. I let some physical monsters wail on me for a while.

Without the shield equipped, I would only take damage to my ES. My life was untouched. So there was definitely no incoming chaos damage from the monsters.

With the shield, my life would dip down a bit with every hit, despite having ES. Thus I was taking some chaos damage.

(Edit) Tested with a more controlled environment (Heartbound Loop), and the mod seems to be shifting exactly the amount of damage it's supposed to (7% in my case).



I agree that there is something going on with your particular setup, but it's not as simple as "damage shift from shield corruption is not working". I am curious to see how this pans out.

I appreciate the feedback. The problem could be the interaction between that mod and CI then.

Edit: I've done few additional tries, always with CI.
- With some ES (at least 1) I'm always immune to damage, whether I use the full elemental conversion or the phys-to-chaos shield. It works even if the ES is not actually protecting the life pool (Eldricth Battery)
- With 0 ES (forcing it to zero with the Gluttony belt) I am immune to damage only if I use the elemental conversion
- With 0 ES (actual zero, without any gimmicks) I am always immune to damage

Therefore the problem has to be found in the interaction between that mod and the Gluttony belt (which forces your max ES to 0).
