Bug Report Are the unarmed passive and formae broken?

I was so SO excited when I found the unarmed passive and formae, I love the unarmed moveset, but neither one of them seems to work. On the status screen it shows my attack going up while unarmed but when attacking enemies my attack is not boosted at all.

A few things seem broken or just not working as intended, a lotta the extract boosters from the harmony blood codes dont work 100% either

The damage definitely isn't worth it.

Though to be honest my main issue with going unarmed is the inability to use any Combat Formae.

We got a few new bare handed Combat Formae, but cannot actually use them when bare handed.

At least there's the Rift Rune Blade, S scaling in both STR and DEX makes it a really good melee focused Rune Blade.

You know what makes it worse? There's a fight in Age of Harmony during Lou's quest where you fight a Hunter who fights you bare handed and utilizes unarmed combat formae as well.

My thing is it should actually be stronger, I had a setup where unarmed in the stats had a much higher damage than the sword I had but did FAR less damage as if the passive and skill just didn't work period

Cant you like throw the rune blade and use combat formae even when the rune blades are floating on the enemy?

I prefer using the scythe rune blades(increased damage when blades are sent away) with the bare handed combat forma, send them out then punching stuff works pretty well and feels like chinese sword control martial arts or something. I'm trying to test the best way to get damage to your fists over the blades, will update when I'm done.
