Gem studded not working correctly with default weapon skills and weapon swap
Noticed that there was an issue with this when not all my skills were at the same movement rate. Did some tests and came up with the following.
Had 2 crossbows, both with 1 skill and the default set to them. Both skills have a red, green, and blue support while the defaults are left empty. In this configuration everything works as intended, aka lower mana cost and reduced movement penalty. Cant really test the no crit bonus. If I move a gem, say the blue, from one of the skills into the default attack on the same weapon, the mana cost of the other skill is no longer lowered while to skill I removed it from still has the benefit. Each weapon still has the same supports assigned to them, 1 red, green, and blue. I fiddled with it some more and here is what I figured out 1) This issue exists whether or not you have 2 weapons or just 1 weapon on the two weapon slots 2) When all skills are balanced, and nothing in the default attacks, everything works as intended regardless of what skills are assigned to what weapon slots. 3) When supports are used in default attacks, that will still work correctly if balanced for the skills *On that weapon slot only*. Supports placed in these default attacks act as if they are not there when the weapon slot is swapped out. 4) Skills that are set to both slots will have their stats changed depending on the weapon slot is currently being used if balance changes. 5) The only way I have gotten it to balance with supports in the default attacks is to copy the exact supports between the two, and then balance my other skills to that. Currently my gem count is str 6, dex 9, int 6. The default attacks have 3 dex gems a piece, so the inactive one is not counted. If I remove a blue gem from any skill then all mana cost go up across the board proving my solution 6) I can see this being a bigger issue if using different weapon types that you would not want to have the same color gems.
