[Bug] Unable to equip item due to insufficient stats although item has the stat

Hi there,

I happen to stumble across this while playing around with weapons.

I had 57 Str and wanted to equip a 1H hammer that required 71 Str. The hammer itself had +17 Str, which should bring my total Str to 74. However, the game does not allow me equip the weapon directly as the prerequisites seem to be check before considering the stats on the item.

There is a work around to this: equip other items to bring your stat level above the required amount before equipping the item.

Screenshots attached for reference.

Not a bug; you currently don't have the Strength to equip the hammer. If you don't have it equipped, you don't get the bonus.
this can get pretty tricky if you have multiple items with requirements on your limit which suport each others requirements by adding strength, dex or int.

one time i couldn't put on gear at all because i accidently sold the dex amulet which allowed me to put on the gloves, which then gave the str points for putting on the chest, which then gave me the neccessary dex points to remove the amulet without losing the ability for the gloves again...

i now mostly avoid gear which adds str, dex or int passives because of this experience.
