A default attack is an inherent attack skill that usable with a martial weapon or unarmed. Default attacks always have no cost.

Default attacks are always listed at the top of the Skills Panel and are granted based on your equipped weapons. Default attacks can be supported by support gems like other skills. Like skills granted by passive skills, default attacks gain sockets based on the player's character level, rather than with Jeweller's Orbs or item level.

Caster weapons do not have a default attack but instead grant a spell that scales with item level. See List of items granting inherent weapon skills. Additionally, Spear Throw is not considered a default attack, although all spears grant Spear Throw. Spear Throw scales with item level.
