Burning Ground interaction with Energy Shield (Deals way too much damage against ES)

I hope i'm not the first one to bring this up, but burning ground clearly isn't working as intended against energy shield characters, even with a high ES pool and capped resistances it absolutely melts energy shield, you can barely stand in it for 2 seconds before going from 100% to 0%

In contrast when I had a life based character, even though his life pool was much lower than my current energy shield, burning ground seemed to do a logical amount of damage, and wouldn't instantly destroy me the moment i stepped on it.
Either there is some kind of huge multiplier where energy shield takes like 500% more damage from burning ground compared to life, or it completely ignores resistances when damaging energy shield. Either way, this should be fixed asap.
