Beacon of Madness "All Damage inflicts Poison" does not always poison on hit.

Beacon of madness, while all damage CAN inflict poison on hit (Like the hexblast wording "All Damage can Freeze" does not automatically poison as if having 100% as the wording implies. The same wording is used in the conflux buffs "All of your damage Ignites.".

Based on the wording of the item, while having glorious madness one should be inflicting poison with every hit regardless of change to poison on hit.

This was tested using arc + herald of agony on single enemies to see when poison was inflicted and when it was not.

Thanks for your report, I'll pass this on.
it never poisons . i was hitting with chaos but plague-bearer never went up, and i added the Golden Rule and was not poisoned either . what a shame !

This is still bugged.

Edit 2: [But it's being fixed in the 3.17 patch - ignore my post below that is ignorant. I'm leaving it for context]

~~That, or the wording is incorrect.

Either way the fix is very simple, but I'd love to know which way it's supposed to be.

Edit: I tested with storm brand and Herald of agony, I was confused when my virulence stacks at 20% chance to poison were the same as with (what I expected to be) 100% chance to poison.

"All damage inflicts poison" seems pretty cut and dry.

The boots are almost unusable because the touched debuffs are ALSO bugged -- they didn't have their duration reduced when the patch need the duration in delirium League -- but they would still be fun for memes if the poison chance was fixed.~~

try reading 3.17 patch notes(you know... the big upcoming one)
I'm super embarrassed. I literally never thought they were going to touch these boots again, lol. Thanks.
