Bug Report: Inferno/ice staff heavy attack animations are broken.

Hello this is my first time posting so please let me know if you need additional information.
When attacking with Inferno and Ice staffs the animations wind up normally but then suddenly snap the player model back to the idle position, so there's no natural reset during the animation. The Lightning and Restoration staffs do not have this issue. I've included a YouTube link below that shows the exact issue.

✭✭✭✭It looks like the greenhouse is on top of a platform over the water, if so that is the problem. Target dummies have to be on solid ground.

No this issue happens at all times anywhere in the game regardless of location, class, or time. It has nothing to do with the greenhouse or the guild house itself and is easily replicated.

✭✭✭✭I don’t know then, I thought it might be connected to the target dummy resetting before so I watched again just now.
The animation looks okay to me, resto staves are channeled and the lightning staff is usually used that way, but the inferno staff is not. I would guess that is the difference. Resto or lightning staff is not show in the video so there is nothing to compare.

The animation has a clear and very obvious hard snap in which the model goes from the attack posture frame to the standing/idle frame. It's missing an entire transition frame set connecting the two postures/positions and it's really obvious, especially if you've done animation work in games. It's definitely not working properly as that posture connection shouldn't be missing.
It's extremely bad to look at and is the only animation set in the game to have this issue. Every other attack style has a fluid series of frames connecting the attack animations to the standing-idle frame, including the other staves. Not sure why it's missing on these two staves in particular.

✭✭✭Flame and Frost staves have always had horrible HA animations, probably what you are seeing! ☹
When I swapped to lightning staff I enjoyed fights so much more, the other two destruction staves are weird when compared to it. These days I think I would be willing to lose significant damage before considering using fire or frost again!!When people say to me........

✭✭✭✭Glad someone else chimed in, I think if it has always been like that, it will probably not be considered a bug.
Also, for most people who animation cancel, the light attack would be immediately followed by a skill so the animation never shows like in the video.
EDIT: correction
