Truma Support does not work with Viper Strike, while Varunastra is equipped.

The Trauma Support gem states: "Supported Skills can only be used with Axes, Maces, Sceptres or Staves".

Varunastra is an Axe, Mace and Sceptre.

The Trauma Support gem also states: "Supports Melee Strike skills that do no inherently apply Trauma".

Viper Strike is a Melee Strike skill that does not inherently apply Trauma.

This is a bug.

GGG moved this post from the bug report channel... In case anyone was wondering why this isn't posted in that channel.

Not sure why they did that though.

I also would have just bumped a previous bug report about this specific issue, but it was archived and never addressed.
Varunastra cannot enable combinations of active skills and support gems that do not share a weapon type.
Viper Strike - claw, dagger or sword
Trauma Support - axes, maces, sceptres or staves

Thanks for clarification. Unfortunate that the wording doesn't reflect that.
