Reduced reflected elemental damage taken shaper mod not working - with pantheon

Running elemental reflect maps and was killing myself with Smite while having 101% reduced reflected elemental damage.

Using the shaper ring modifier "You and your minions take 51% reduced reflected elemental damage" and the Soul of Yugul minor pantheon for "You and your minions take 50% reduced reflected damage", elemental damage is in fact still being reflected at a total of 101% reduced elemental reflect.

The reason this appears like a bug is because if i use the Soul of Yugul and the passive tree elemental mastery for "60% reduced reflected elemental damage taken" for 110% total reduced reflected elemental damage - then no elemental damage is reflected.

Additionally, you can use the shaper mod ring and the elemental mastery for 111% reduced reflected elemental damage and no elemental damage is reflected.

So is the bug that the ring does not work with the pantheon, or that the 101% reduced reflected damage is not actually 101% reduced reflected elemental damage?

Spent time asking many players with thousands of hours more playtime than myself, and they assisted in the testing and theorycrafting. We determined we would make a post for clarification.

Please let us know.
P.S. Been enjoying the game immensely.
Thanks.

Forbidden flame/flesh Berserker - 5% increased damage taken.
So you need at least 105% reduced damage taken.
Thank you for pointing that out, did not consider that.
No bug after all.
