Vampire invisibility mechanics

So since the update I've been messing around with my vampire. However, I noticed something strange. When sprinting and becoming invisible at stage 4, if I were to make a small jump over a ledge (not a big enough drop to cause damage) then my invisibility would end upon landing. Even though my stamina would continue to fall during the jump (as if I were still sprinting) and my character was still in sprint mode after the landing. How does that work? I'm technically sprinting during and after the jump (and I take no damage), so how is negating the invisibility justified?

    BTW I've tried this multiple times from the stairs up to the fighters guild in Velyn Harbor, up to a certain point you won't lose invisibility, but from the top you will. But you don't lose health from the fall/jump either, which is why I'm asking.

    Technically jump breaks Sprint momentarily but the status updates only on landing. Works same way with the Coward's Gear set.

    Jumping is the only way to fall off of something without immediately breaking invisibility. If you begin to fall but have not jumped you will enter the falling state and are no longer sprinting.

    Also if you do jump and fall for long enough to cause your character to enter the fall animation or do a roll at the end you lose invisibility as well.

    It's annoying to be honest and the passive is more about sprinting efficiency while in combat. The invisibility is more utility than anything else.

    This is how sprint mechanic run in the game , depends on the stop time .

    If you are fully stop , you lose invis .
    If you jump , you still invis , and you land , you lose invis .
    If you are temporary stop by the environment and maintain the sprinting , you lose invis and become invis again 3 sec later by Unnatural Movement passive .

    Just like the mount sprinting , no difference .
