Red Flames of Chayula bugged with Soul Tether

Red flames of Chayula from the Acolyte of Chayula Ascendancy are bugged when using a Soul Tether unique item, which should in theory make your excess leech go into Energy Shield instead of life.

Currently this does NOT happen if your life is full but ES isn't. If your life is full, but your ES isn't, and you pick up a red flame: nothing happens. Your energy shield does not get the leech from the flame. It should, because the excess leech should go directly to ES, but this does not happen in practice if your life is full.

The leech, however, does happen correctly if your life isn't full. You pick up a red flame and your energy shield does get leeched from the flame, which is the expected behaviour.

I have tested this extensively using a cultivated Soul Tether belt with the excess leech modifier and a cultivated modifier that causes you to lose 3% of your life per second. Using this combination of excess leech and life loss makes the red flames always function correctly all of the time, because you're never at full life.

The bug with red flames is therefore directly tied to either having full life or not. If your life is full the bug happens, if your life isn't full the bug doesn't happen.

And just as a reminder: Darkness is still bugged, despite the previous fixes. Please fix it too, it's very annoying that half of the entire Chayula Ascendancy is broken one way or the other.
