Greatsword "Insanity" from update 9 bugged?

[Allieanna]

A couple of weeks ago I used a +2 tome or better for every ability on one of my characters. Today I got the new greatsword from the new quest chain and used it some. Later I was looking at my character sheet and noticed that my inherent dexterity bonus was gone!

I unequipped the sword and even tried to relog, but my inherent bonus is permanently gone! I talked to a game master and submitted a bug report, but I'm wondering if that's happened to anybody else. . .

That would reflect as a temp change, NOT permanent.

Say you have a base 16, you get a +2 Inherited bonus from a Tome, THAT shows when you place your mouse over your stat, that gives you 18. You equip Insanity, your base drops back to 16. If you place your mouse over again you will then have it showing +2 Inherited, - 2 Modifier.

What they are saying is that it no longer shows they are getting an Inherited bonus from the Tome. Tomes have their own line since you can only get bonuses from it once and it cant be removed. If its being removed by the greatsword then its definitely a bug that needs fixing. Which is why they are asking if anyone else has noticed this. I unfortuantly havent done the quest yet where that sword comes from with a toon that can do it. And, until I switch to my new ISP from this one I wont be able to.

Yes, Jaikula is right.

I was aware completely aware that I would have -2 dexterity while using the sword, and the sword does give me -2 while I use it. But, I believe that when I equipped it for the first time it removed my inherent tome bonus as well as giving me -2. My dexterity is now the only ability score my character has that doesn't have a +2 or better tome bonus.
