Lightning Bolt + Spell Cascade not working

Lightning bolt can be supported by spell cascade but nothing occurs when they are paired, at least not visually.

I would figure its supposed to make 3 lightning bolts strike from the sky? Thematically it sounds like the support is supposed to work.

It's not just spell cascade, spell echo also doesn't work.
I believe spell echo was patched for triggered:
"Cannot support Channelling skills Remote skills or skills which are Triggered."


However, SPELL CASCADE should be working.
It's even a recommended gem.

Spell echo should still be working with regular lightning bolt.

Please fix spell cascade for lightning bolt (both regular and Choir)...

This is for sure still ongoing and generally kinda limiting for lightning bolt (not that it was ever a powerhouse to begin with but definitely helps the skill)
Yeah I just noticed that aswell since I have a strong build with a staff that has the ability. Would have been a fun spell but it does not seem to get supported by any gems..
