Necro Summoning question

I have "Unnatural Strength" node in my ascendancy which gives all my minions "Unholy Might" which converts all their physical dmg into chaos dmg.

My question is: is it contradictory to have "minions hits have 50% chance to ignore enemy physical damage reduction" (at minion offence mastery) chosen?.

I'm asking because I'm wondering if the conversion from physical to chaos dmg happens AFTER the "ignore 50% phys dmg reduction" or it happens BEFORE, which would make the whole thing contradictory and useless?.

Thanks in advance.

Conversion happens before the final hit total is tallied. Mitigation happens after that.

100% of a physical hit being converted to chaos damage means you take 100% of the hit as chaos damage.

Your minions only ignore the physical damage reduction of they are doing physical damage.
