skin issue on skitterbots with arkhon's tools belt

So,with the arkhon's tools belt equipeed,you get a third skitterbot ,but that third one isn't using the skin applied to your skitterbots,and just use the regular skin,which is a bit disappointing but not a huge problem either.it would be nice to get that fixed though

I’m having trouble understanding how this is a bug or something to be “fixed”. When you apply that MTX to the skill, there isn’t a skin applied to both bots; rather, there’s one white one and one blue one. This means GGG created one skin for the chilling skitterbot and another for the shocking skitterbot. Which of the two would you like to see applied to the scorching skitterbot?

If the answer is you’d like a third skin, that’s a Feedback and Suggestions (Path of Exile 1) issue; not a bug report. Bug reports are for the game not behaving as expected; obviously the game client cannot reasonably be expected to use art assets GGG has never chosen to create.

Simply that both chilling and shocking skitterbots use the MTX equipped to the skill,not matter they're two different skitterbots.the arkhon's tools belt add another skitterbots to the skill itself,so if the mtx is applied to the skill,as i's how it work in poe,the new skitterbot should also benefit from that mtxthe belt modifier reads "summon skitterbots also summon a scorching skitterbot" so it's not the belt spawning a skitterbot by itself,it's inherently the skill,so by all means,that third skitterbot should also receive the mtx applied to the skill.it's not really a bug,but surely a line of code forgotten when they created the belt to make sure the third skitterbot would also get whatever mtx applied to summon skitterbots.so indeed it is something to be fixed.in the case of every mtx that can be applied to the skitterbots,like void emperor summon skitterbots skin,the skin given to the skitterbots isn't different.therefore,yes,it's just a line of code that wasn't implemented as it should.it's just like if you had a horde of golems with the bismuth skin,then you equip an item that give you another one of those same golems and it's not inheriting the skin,it makes no sense

This simply isn't true;
