Bigger issue than expected. Pressing 'Shift' over nodes shows 'no affect' for all Ammunition Skills!

Test it yourself. Allocate some Projectile Damage nodes, etc. and you'll see the DPS increase doesn't affect Ammunition Skills at all! Only the 'basic bolt' is affected, which is useless by itself.

I didn't bother to use the Shift trick until today. It's always been there but I never used it.

Nodes like 'Finishing Blows' and 'Stars Aligned' also do not work with Ammunition Skills even though they count as a 'Hit' minus any DoT effects. Nodes like 'Crushing Judgement' and 'Cruel Methods' don't work, either!

Oh, and +% Area Damage nodes also don't affect Grenade Skills. Found that out, too.

I am running an Incendiary Shot/Permafrost Bolt build using the unique Mist Whisper Crossbow to help Freeze Targets and then switching to my Main-Hand Crossbow to unload on targets. It has proved to be a very fun build setup with the help of the 'Instant Reload' notable to help reduce reload time.

However, none of the +% Projectile, Increased Physical Damage or AoE nodes affect Crossbow Ammunition Skills... at all! Support Gems that offer increased AoE 'also' do not affect Crossbow Ammunition Skills! This is a pretty big issue for AoE and Damage scaling!

My links for Incendiary Shot: Fire Infusion, Ignition, Eternal Flame, Execute, and Magnified Effect (was using Nimble Reload in place of Mag Effect).

Note: For those curious, I am using 'Execute' for the 'more' Damage multiplier that synergizes well with the 'Finishing Blows' and 'Stars Aligned' notables.

My links for Permafrost Bolts: Double Barrel, Chain, Cold Penetration, and Glaciation.

Note: I use Grip of Winter unique gloves (esp. early-game) for even more Freeze Buildup.
