    Definitely feels like this is a bug if that’s the case

I would assume its not. If you succeed in the roll on wether deflect triggers or not, the bat will be used in that turn to both deflect and strike back. after that turn you will use your primary/secondary as per attack settings.

i guess since youre committee you could forward it for further investigating though or do so yourself on test servers if you have the option at all. not sure how that works

I have mentioned it - as you will have the logs of this occurring you could also raise a bug report to confirm it though.

A weapon being used when set to 0% doesn’t feel right?

to be honest i dont see it as a problem/unbalanced.

In attacks i can choose when to use what weapon so why not be able to allow using it on defends only vs temps as well. Its obviously quite OP on defends but on attacks i have to use it for the 1st few turns until opponents temp is dealt with so that kinda balances it out already in my opinion.

By forcing players to use it on defends for just the sake of dealing damage i believe that would nerf the bonus too far. I wouldn't mind handing out logs to staff if they wanted it, but as of now i just think this is how the bonus is intended to work and not a bug.

At a 43% proc rate, an innate passive just for having the weapon equipped would be way too powerful from a balancing aspect. It would be a different story at like a 10%-12% proc rate.

Furthermore, this would be inconsistent with every other weapon bonus that requires the weapon to be used in order for the bonus to proc. Imagine if Expose gave +8% base crit rate to a primary for having it equipped on a garbage secondary. Or if Empower gave +70% passive strength boost just for having a garbage melee with it equipped.

I'd encourage you to submit a bug report and get an official answer if you're truly seeing the bonus proc on defense while the weapon was not used.
