Beacon of Madness (Poison) Not working

Planned a build for Phrecia 2.0 and am using lightning tendrils of eccentricity with the poison version of beacon of madness, but it doesnt seem to be applying any poison.

According to the wiki the hits should always poison without needing chance to poison, but there are no poison stacks being applied.

I saw a couple other threads from 2021 mentioning the same issue.

How did you test this? Have you been affected by Glorious Madness? Apparently, with Perfect Agony (Non-Critical Strikes cannot inflict Ailments), Lightning Tendrils of Eccentricity should poison every 5th hit (Stronger Pulses always Critically Strike).

It seems like this should have been fixed in 3.17

Fixed a bug where the "All Damage inflicts Poison while affected by Glorious Madness" modifier on the Beacon of Madness Unique Boots was not working correctly

Yea i toggled the buff on as the second is working as i get the profane bloom explosions.

I simply am casting tendrils on a map boss for a few seconds but I see no poison stacks being applied. I thought i would see the poison stacks next to the shock/chill debuffs below the life bar.

So I think it does work, its just less damage than i thought, but i thought i would still see the number of stacks but they do have a weird green effect on them which is the poison i guess.

Poison doesn't show up there.
If I remember correctly, for some reason only non-damaging elemental ailments show up there.
