i noticed on ranger shortbows (and maybe longbows) have issues activating onhit effects, especially with skill 1. this is readily apparent on the opening strikes trait which 80% of the time doesnt work when hit with a shortbow, but can be reliably applied with another weapon such as axe. similarly, in pvp, the sigil of leeching which gives next hit leech works flawlessly on axe – the symbol comes up every time on swap and leeches everytime. however, the symbol comes up on shortbow every swap, but the leech activation is inconsistent, maybe 50% of the time especially in the middle of combat with quick action. and its not a graphical glitch either, the effect symbol just disappears without doing damage or giving the player life like a normal leech effect
