So i noticed that when i have empowered illusions trait on, the offhand sword skill illusionary riposte doesn’t get the damage boost.
The way this skill works is that, when you block it makes a clone (not a phantasm) which hits for a lot of dmg on its first strike and after that it behaves like a normal clone (low dmg).
Now i am not 100% shure if this is just a tooltip bug or an actual skill-trait bug.

see no evil ,until i stab you

It’s not a bug. With illusionary Riposte, YOU are doing the damage, not the clone, so it isn’t affected by Empowered illusions.
