Spider Cultist buffing Light and Heavy attacks?

Was testing a few sets around on the PTS, and someone in one of my guilds mentioned that Spider Cultist 5-piece is buffing Light and Heavy attacks with a Destruction Staff.

Light and Heavy Attacks aren't abilities, so is this supposed to be intended or is it a bug?

For reference:

Spider Cultist Cowl (these are pre-HotR values for the 2-4 piece):

2 items: Adds 8-688 Spell Critical
3 items: Adds 11-967 Maximum Magicka
4 items: Adds 1-129 Spell Damage
5 items: Adds 5-450 Spell Damage to your Destruction Staff abilities.

    Automaton says the same thing but for physical damage abilities and it buffs light and heavy attacks. I hope it's not a bug.

    Nope, not a bug - this is intended.

    Note that when the game says "abilities" in general it means everything: Skills, passives, CPs, Light/Heavy Attacks, Buffs, Food/Drinks, Mundus Stones, etc... are all considering "abilities".

    Pew, now I wish I hadn't given away an infused lightning staff I picked up the other night
