Eye of winter does not apply ground effect from Shocked Ground.

"If the eye passes over an elemental ground surface, it will take on that surfaces effect, (applying it to nearby enemies) and causing shards to deal more damage of the corresponding type."

Using Gathering Storm to put down Shocked Ground and then casting Eye of Winter over that ground is not letting Eye of Winter apply the Shocked Status to enemies.

From the way the wording of Eye of Winter reads it should be able to apply without needing to do any Threshold calculation so I would assume it should just apply.

Does it still need to do enough damage to cross the Shock Threshold even when stating that it applies it to nearby enemies?
