Animation bug with Light Weaves using a bow

Basically, if you don't light weave on your bow, animations play normally. If you do light weave on your bow, then your animations are severely delayed, resulting in an overall DPS loss due to the slowdown. This wasn't happening in 4.1.0. This doesn't seem to affect any other weapon tree, and I've seen it happen on sorc and nightblade so far.

Can confirm it happens on Warden and DK too.

I've had the same issue. It appears the light weave animation is entirely missing at times. Also Snipe displays no casting animation whatsoever you just suddenly see the snipe shoot off out of nowhere.

I tested on my magblade during the last maintenance and it happened with an inferno staff weave too. It wasn't consistent but every 6m parse I did I ran into some sort of trouble.

This is happening with D/W weaving with my stamblade. I keeping getting caught in delayed animations

Happens with my Magblade weaving Inferno Staff with Swallow Soul. The first time I attempt it in any combat what I'm seeing is that the game queues the actions so that both animations play out in full. Happens with light weave or with heavy. There appears to be a much longer gap between the two attacks landing than I'm used to on live. After that first time it's a bit inconsistent, sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't.

Can confirm the issue; have seen it in stamblade and stamsorc tests on the current PTS.

I'm experiencing it as well on both bow and dw. I push the buttons in an order I know works, but it's pretty different than what's on the screen. Usually the attacks count but sometimes it's like I didn't push the button at all.

That happens on Live with me too, especially with Snipe. I can only see it going off due to a cast-bar addon.

I will pass along this issue.

Can confirm the issue, happen here too.

The issue still exists as of today's PTS patch 4.1.2.

I wouldn't say it makes testing impossible, but it's certainly a PITA.

I can't believe anyone from ZOS actually entered combat using a bow on 4.1.1 or 4.1.2, the bug is impossible to miss.

@Tasear FYI.

Also @ZOS_GinaBruno and @ZOS_JessicaFolsom , hate to pester people with @ tags but there will be an absolute meltdown if this makes it to live.

I have passed issue along so others can be aware. Feel free to tag me for other bugs.
