Recently I was messing around in sPvP and noticed a thief bugging out all over the place. She showed me a few combos where she would use some sort of shadowstep or teleport while using a movement skill like heartseeker. The result was rubberbanding and skill termination. I was going to record a vid of it myself, but the player kindly directed me to one she previously took and posted. This bug can still be recreated.

This is a problem.

So far almost 100% chance to bug out:
- use shadowstep or steal during HS animation -> it will port thief to the target and then instatly back
- in shadowstep case it is actually even worse, because the skill is usually used to break stun and/or get away from “hot” area however with this bug it doesn’t port you anywhere but on the same spot
- in case of infiltrator’s steal i was able to 100% reproduce (meaning every single time) it with Bp+HS + signet combo… HS + signet use w/o BP usually works however

Took another clearer video today with how bugs occur: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zB4LAIOajpI
Please fix it, it is unplayable right now.

It might not seem like a big deal but it is to any thief. Stealth lasts only 3 sec, if thief can’t reach target in the given time frame he won’t land backstab, meaning this bug actually denies thief his main source of dmg.

Shadowstep bug is extremely lethal too, since the patch every time i tried to break CC to avoid unnecessary dmg it would port my thief back to enemy and my thief ate full attack chain from enemy which usually resulted in death.
