If you have a sustained talent then it's "effect" tooltip shown to indicate that the sustain is currently 'On' will not update if you gain level / gain stats / alter the bonusses of that talent in some way.
However I'm pretty sure those bonusses do take effect (on the ones I could test) it's just not showing the right tooltip.
The tooltip from the hotkey bar has the same text but with the correct numbers.

Re: [b42] Active effect/sustain tooltips don't update
It actually depends on the talent. Some do dynamically update as your stats change, some don't (look at the reaver's ruin sustain for an example of one that does). Generally if the tooltip doesn't change, the talent's not updating. There's some potential cheese involved there with stat stacking and sustains, heh.
Don't quite remember why dynamic updating isn't a universal thing... vaguely recall something about it being somewhat of a nuisance to code, but I may be misremembering, heh. And... I'm not sure how much has been converted, actually. The code contributin' folks have been aware of the problem for a while, so there's been a bit of behind the scenes fixin'. Still, definitely wasn't universal a few versions back, yeah.
