Ignite and base damage question

Hi all,

First time trying to make my own build here, I have a question about Ignite calculations.
Do mods such as "Gain 5% of phys damage as extra fire damage" intervene in base damage hit calculation, and thus in ignite damage ?

I'm trying to lay out a WoC ignite build in PoB, which would mainly only work if that is the case. But I'm having trouble understanding all the info in the calculation sheet, and I find the damage pretty low, I was expecting quite a bit more.

PoB: https://pastebin.com/6sRYvHBf

Thanks in advance for any tips!

I poked around in your POB a bit, think there are better skills to ignite with, WoC is generally just used for the exposure. Check out my Detonate Dead ignite for inspiration in terms of damage scaling!

On your question though, it will work to get phys as fire!.

Cheers
