Radiation only Arca Plasmor doing impact damage?

[(PSN)xtharbadx]

As title says, I was using a Arca Plasmor modded for radiation only ( no other elementals, no IPS ), yet I'm seeing hits with the impact symbol ( the little hammer thing ).

Am I missing something obvious here? Where is that impact damage coming from?

Acordingly with the Wiki;

Some weapons do however replace physical damage with either an elemental or combo elemental damage type. These do not have physical damage and are not affected by  Impact,  Puncture, or  Slash mods.

The Arca Plasmor automatically procs Impact status effect without dealing Impact damage. Some weapons can do things like that. Another example is the Lesion, which can proc Toxin status despite not dealing Toxin damage.

Thanks. Just figured that out by myself. Should have checked the Arca Plasmor wiki first instead of the Damage page 😉
