can someone explain ailment threshold to me

[Hormesis]

I picked up a node on the skill tree that gives me "4 to ailment threshold per dexterity" (Natural Immunity) with 150 to dex and have also about 120% to Elemental ailment threshold. and yet, the second i touch a blazing ground or frozen ground i'm instantly slower and on fire. also, when i check my character screen there's nothing under the portion that says ailment protection. i also have lots of stun protection and yet there's nothing listed there as either.

ground effects are guaranteed, it's protection from getting the ailment from being hit by those element attacks.

you can hold mouse over passive and hold alt and hold mouse over the stuff that got lines under it and click on it. But it make it less likely that you get hit by elemental hits that apply relevant ailments

have you come across anything that would give immunity to burning ground or frozen ground? it's damn annoying

been doing that i just hadn't see anything on the tree that adds any kind of mitigation for burning ground etc so assumed it might be tied up into elemental ailment. i've also not come across anything in the tree that would help with status ailment thresholds. anyways thanks for the response
