Skill Points On Weapons

I understand how skill points work on armor. It just gets added to your compass as id your adding skill points manually. However, I don't get how skill points work for weapons. If a weapon adds or takes away from say, defense; my defense stat doesn't change when I look on the compass. It doesn't even change when I look on the stats tab in the compass even if its my designated weapon. Im asking how this works, if you know in detail make sure to reply down below.

You hold a weapon that gives you +3 defense, your defense skill gets added by 3. However when you go look at your compass you have to switch slots, causing your defense skill to drop back to what it was since you're no longer holding the weapon.

 

nope.

When you hold a weapon with a skill point increase/decrease, The raw buffs are applied (+% dodge chance, damage, mana usage, etc), but the actual buffs/debuffs are not applied to your skill points. Holding a slider while wearing pants that require dex wont cause the pants to pop off (That would just be stupid and annoying).

 

Pretty sure it is broken. Was broken when I tried it.

i held my weapon, opened the inv, and you can see your hand holding the weapon, but you cant equip something cuz of the missing skill points.. so its broken
