You'll still gain the skill that its for. But it should be using your best skill when determining hit chance. But thats something I can verify as maybe it did break.

Oh okay. I just know a lot of people use them as trainers for weapon skills.
My bad.

I think that is intentional actually. Even on other shards I've played on the special attacks required real skill. The same goes for "Mage weapons". I was trying to find anything on stratics and other sites that explicitly said you can use special attacks with a UBWS or Mage weapon, and I can't find anything.

Yeah think UBW is strictly for hit chance, thats it, and maybe DCI, but don't even think that is applied.

I could have sworn you could still use the weapon abilities.

On OSI you could.
Hence why I would use a UBWS war fork on my Archer Macer.
Bleed/Disarm ftw.

You can. I tested it on TC. Archery does not apply to UBWS tho, nor does wrestling for that matter.

Makes sense. Why use the weapon if the abilities don't work
.

Wrestling and archery aren't supposed to. That's intentional. The special shots are supposed to work though.

Just tested Blade of the Righteous with Beelzebub (a fencer) and was able to a concusion blow. Due to lacking of tactics, I wasn't able to do AI.

Specials work without tactics.

Just tested and specials work fine with UBWS weps even if you don't have enough skill of that wep. Ex: use warrior's bow (has UBWS) with 90 fencing, and you can still use the two bow specials, and get the right hit chance based on fencing. Closed ticket.
