Ranger sword 1 through 3 skills bugging out by jumping character around
I think this is expected. The sword has a 3 hit combo, and the 3rd hit is supposed to move your character (leaps to target):
Slash (ranger sword skill)
Slash – Slash your foe.
Kick – Kick your foe, crippling them for a short time.
Pounce – Leap at your foe, striking them. Your pet gains might.
