physical damage buff is not negated by Deal no Non-Fire Damage and is not converted to fire.

In most situations, Avatar of Fire will not synergize with Elemental Equilibrium, since Elemental Equilibrium will add fire resistance to the enemy, while the player is unable to utilize the cold and lightning weakness. One notable use case is when the player summons minions that primarily deal cold and lightning damage. Since minions do not inherit Elemental Equilibrium, the player's fire damage will permanently weaken the enemy to cold and lightning.
