Defaulting issue

I'm putting together a martial artist (four-color evil ninja) type, and GCA is giving me something that looks really odd.

DX 15 [100]
Broadsword (A) DX+3 [12] - 18
Shortsword (A) DX+3 [8] - 18, defaulted from Broadsword.
Jitte/Sai (A) DX+1 [2] - 16, defaulted from Shortsword.

The first defaulting is fine. The second one is what's making me wonder.

Is this legit? My gut's telling me "no", as it seems to smack of double-defaulting, but there's a lingering doubt about that call.

it is legit, While double defualting is forbided. that not what you doing you no longer default the middle skill once you bought it, even if it's bought from default.

Re: Defaulting issue

Yes, once you've put points into another skill you no longer know it "only by default," so the Double Defaults restriction no longer applies.
