Giant's Blood & Weapon Swap malfunction

My character "Yaga_Shura" has a problem where on zone transition, my weapon set 2 (clone of locked set 1) acts as if my weapon is not equipped. The issue is fixed by removing/re-equipping any skill gem or by re-equipping the weapon. Other strange things like respeccing a single point fix the issue.

I am using Giant's Blood. The character has enough strength to wield the weapon with 1 hand even without the strength roll on the shield. There are no passive points assigned to either weapon swap that add strength, so this is not a stat issue. Everything works fine once I un-equip and re-equip the weapon or a skill gem as stated.

There are no issues if I equip a different weapon with the same strength requirement in set 2. This only happens with a two-hander locked to both weapon sets. Oddly this did not seem to happen before I did a weapon set respec in order to equip the Rigwald's lineage support. It does not appear related to that support, however. Sorry for the brain dumping, but I have tried basically everything including unspeccing/respeccing giant's blood, different shields, shields in both sets (instead of locked shield). Nothing works.

Please let me know if any additional details are required.

I am also having this same exact issue with Giant's Blood weapon sets. It happens every time with zone changes as well for me. My character is "HunbarSlamma" and I generated a bug report with 1,217,978,936 if that helps.

Finally someone with the same issue, i also nailed it down to the giants blood. I always have to unsocket and resocket a gem to fix it.
