  • What is your character name in New World: Zoli
  • What server/world did you experience your issue on: Abaton
  • Describe the issue you are experiencing: When using a firestaff with Amber gem the damage from your burn debuffs does not get converted into nature damage.
    Tested with:
    -Flame thrower: the each stack is dealing only fire dmg.
    -Fireball: The initial impact damage is converted but the burining field’s damage is not
    -Meteor Shower: The initial impact damage is converted but the remainin durations damage is not.
    I would guess all the other burn effects from the fire staff has the same problem but my staff isnt high level enough yet to try those out.
