Es'Teq Conduit Not Working Correctly

Steam

What operating system do you use?
Win 10
Which version of the game are you running?
1.200

What expansions do you have installed?
Revelations

Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
I cannot equip the Es'Teq Conduit on my unit, even though he meets the requirements; apparently the hero skill Essence Seeker does not count, though it seems that it should.

The skill gives all attacks a means to generate essence charges, and the Conduit says it can only be equipped by a unit who can generate said charges. I should be able to equip this, then, with any other weapon.

EDIT: Oh, and I also have the Essence Shields skill, which gives essence when I use guard mode. Apparently what the Conduit ACTUALLY requires is that I have a weapon with inherent energy drain capabilities equipped, not a 'means to generate essence charges', per the description.
Have you tried verifying your files?
Yes

Steps to reproduce the issue
1) Get Hero
2) Train the Essence Seeker hero skill
3) Equip a weapon that is compatible with the skill
4) Attempt to equip the Es'Teq Conduit
5) Unicorn Dance Party

Attach DxDiag (PC) or System Info log (Mac)

Attach screenshot / video

Hey Jaduggar, thansk for the report. Mods can only look for properties added/inherented by Weapons/Mods not Hero Skills, this is a limitation of the current system. We'll update the Conduit Description to make clearer that essence generating abilities from Hero Skills won't be applicable.
