Gain x% of physical as xy [solved]

Does this work even if i already converted all Phys to ele?

And would 5% increased Phys result in the same as Gain 5% of Phys damage as xy damage?
(assuming there are no inc ele mods)
Im bad at math.

Can you briefly explain why?

Its 100% of the damage.
Phys before converting, Lightning after converting.
The numeric value doenst change.

For example, you have 100 phys dmg and full conversion to lightning (total 100 lightning dmg). Then with "5% increased phys" there will be 105 lightning dmg. And with "gain 5% phys as lightning" there will also be 105 lightning. But usually this does not happen.

In a real case, for example, you will have 20 phys dmg and 400% inc phys dmg (total 100 phys dmg) and full conversion to lightning (total 100 lightning dmg). Then with "5% increased phys" there will be 101 lightning dmg (20 phys dmg and 405% inc phys dmg). And with "gain 5% phys as lightning" there will still be 105 lightning.
thank you

So even the difference might no be critical in most cases its best to increase the converted damage, right?
