IceBird for maelstrom assassin
I have an icebird throwing knife that a friend lvled up (from a 2 to a 4) for me to get +13 to maelstrom but when he gave it to me I got +3 to maelstrom. Keep in mind he was a druid. We tested a bit here and there and non-assassin classes got +13 whereas assassins got +3 . Is that a bug or did devs purposefully do that to nerf the item for assassins? I just wanna be sure lol.

example for another skill: Crucify
You can see the difference now with those items. One grants a skill directly for assassin, whereas the other grants it for all classes to use. When oskills are used on the class that already has that skill, it caps at +3 unless it directly says +xx (class only)
