What is the behaviour in Path of Building?

According to POB, Chain Hook is disabled because of this weapon.

How to reproduce the issue

You can reproduce this in POB:

  1. new character
  2. Skills
  3. New Socket group
Image 4) Items 5) Search for unique weapon **Wings Of Entropy** 6) Drag either of the results to your main hand 7) See skill disabled on left. Image

Disclaimer: I did find another open issue for this logged in 2020, though I know that old issues fall off the table and are seldom reviewed again.

My gut tells me it's possibly not the weapon definition, otherwise more skills would have this issue, I suspect it to be the Chain hook definition.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue using the listed character, skill, and Wings of Entropy setup, then inspect the Chain Hook and weapon definitions involved in skill eligibility. Compare the in-game compatibility described in the report with Path of Building's disabled-skill result; done means Chain Hook is no longer incorrectly disabled with Wings of Entropy.
