Description
==========
Arcane marauder's path for Spellsword has a modified version of imbue weapon, in which the bonus becomes an Enhancement instead of an AB bonus. If applied to a weapon with Great Magic Weapon on it with a higher Enhancement bonus, the final result is the lower IW bonus, and not the highest of the two (GMW).
Steps to reproduce
----------------------------
With an arcane marauder, apply GMW to a normal weapon (e.g a maul), then use Imbue weapon on it
Expected result
-----------------------
The weapon has a bonus equal to the highest between GMW and IW + elemental bonus damage
Actual result
-------------------
The weapon has the bonus of IW, lowering the effective enhancement of the weapon, + elemental bonus damage

Misc Notes
----------------
Not 100% sure if this is intended behaviour or a bug. It seems just odd that by selecting the Arcane marauder patch, I basically lost +4 at AB and damage.

I'll have a look! Probably just gonna change Imbue Weapon to no longer replace existing temporary enhancement bonuses on targeted weapons :)

Should be fixed next reset!
Re: Arcane's marauder Imbue weapon cancelling Great Magic Weapon
Not really :/
EDIT: What I've tried after the reset on PGCC (Also partially tried on Distand Shores with my PC):
Normal SS:
- GMW (enhancement)+ IW (AB bonus) works fine
- Keen Edge (AB bonus +2) + IW (AB bonus +1) sets the AB bonus to IW, which is lower
AM path:
- IW (lvl18) somehow gives a +3 enhancement bonus? On the wiki and the ability description it should give a +2
- GMW(enhancement +3) + IW (enchancement +2) --> final bonus is enhancement +2
- Keen Edge (AB bonus +3) + IW (enhancement +2) --> +3 AB bonus is kept, weapon has both properties (so I imagine it hits like a +2 weapon, but has +3 AB)

Try again now :)
The code has been configured to no longer overwrite existing enhancement bonuses. If that didn't work, the update likely wasn't live when you tested.
Imbue weapon AB/EB is +1 per 6 levels, so +3 at level 18 is working as intended.
