But can you then please explain to me why my value for Fire Resistentce Penetration is 10% for my SR witch means i get the bonus for the passive tree.

Just the same way as lightning and cold penetration also show up for SR on your char sheet, or they would all show up for a purely physical skill. You have these penetration values and they will show for all damaging skills, regardless if they apply to the skill or not. The penetration you've picked up from the skill tree does not increase the damage of SR.
For penetration to apply, a hit is required. If you link your SR to Cast While Channeling and Fireball, your penetration will apply to the Fireball (which hits) but not to any ignite caused by the Fireball (ignite, being a DoT, does not hit) and still not the Scorching Ray (because it does not hit the enemy).

Why shouldn't I get the same from the flask ?

As I wrote in my first post I don't know why the Wise Oak penetration does not show up. I haven't looked that closely at your character. Might be a bug, might be something you've missed. Regardless, the Scorching Ray damage will be unaffected.

ok, I have looked into this a bit more. I don't fully understand this behavior of the wise oak flask so maybe there is something for GGG to look at, but here is what I have seen so far -->

If I just press C and look under the stats for the default attack the stats are:
10% - 4% - 4% resistance penetration.
If I activate wise oak --> 30% - 4% - 4%
This is as it should be as far as I understand it.

Now, if press C and select SR then we see this strange behavior -->
10% - 4% - 4% becomes 10% - 24% - 24% while the Wise Oak flask is active.

As you said, they way SR works the wise oak flask can not help it but why this change in behavior. Why is it not consistent. This is what buggeds me out.
Also I really feel like they should have removed the PEN values from SR when the dont work unless you link with a skill that can use it....

Also, if I remove my armour then the flask works as excepted -->
So remove armour, press C, Select SR and active the flask = 30% - 4% - 4%
Why is this happening ??

Do you understand what I am trying to say here ? :)
I think this is really confusing and is why I made this report.
