before this topic i had no idea what i was doing but i honestly learnt alot especially about skill modifications.
i was only paying much more attention of resistances on my gear and maxing them since this was the thing i used to hear the most in any guide i watch or read so even having that many skill points modifying SS on my gear was not really intentional 
True and accurate especially now that i went back to check my gear i found out i already have +9 points on SS from gears alone. (after some gear changes from the original link i uploaded) 
so yes i get it now and agree with you.
