Iron Grip doesnt work with kinetic bolt bug report 4,017,488,082

Taking the iron grip keystone didnt change/raise my dps with kinetic bolt. Bought a kinetic blast gem then swapped in. Took iron grip out and dps went down.

Iron grip doesnt affect kinetic bolt atm which i suppose it should as it's an attack and projectile.

I am not saying that this isn't a bug. But you can not assume anything just because of the gem tags, in case that's what you are doing.

In case you did not know:
"
Gem tags do not indicate which modifiers apply to something. That's not their purpose, nor could they be adequate for that purpose.
Gem tags exist to classify gems into groups, primarily so we can give "+1 to level of socketed TAG gems" and have that mean something. They also help clarify the types of skill, such as which skills are curses.

I SHOULD assume it is how it works, somehow, because it is what is written. We read tags/mods/descriptions to at least have an idea what stuff does.
you already got damage from STR from Iron Will. You cant get the same modifier apply twice.

But it still raises other skill gem's damage. I tried swapping kinetic bolt with kinetic blast.
I see, Iron grip actually raises my Kinetic bolt damage when i take off the Iron will gloves. But isn't inc Spell damage per some str different from inc proj attack damage per some str?

other skills dont have built-in spell damage affecting attack damage, so Iron will doesnt apply to them in your setup.

no. It is still damage from one source, which is STR

not a bug
