Delay on using abilites or meds/shields after sliding while heirloom is equi

[FatalBabo]

@DYSPROssium Hey! I discovered that it also occurs while crouched not just sliding and made an updated report that got an EA reply and I know another EA dev has also seen it since he’s linked a similar bug report back to my post.

Will you still need video?

@Fakooking Wait are you serious? How have I not noticed this. I’ll try it when I get on later.

Hello again @FatalBabo, thanks for bringing that thread to my attention. I've also merged it with this one just to get every information in one place and hopefully draw attention from the developers for an annoying issue for a small amount of players @EA_David.

Threads which show videos often are more convincing for the devs to look into (or show a specific situation in which the bug happens). But as David already said, they are looking into it. Maybe he can update us

please fix this bug because I have the Kunai and now I don't want to use it because of this delay and this has been happening before season 2.

Which Legend were you playing (if applicable)? Wraith
Which Legends were your squad mates using (if applicable)?
Where did the issue occur? In a match
Which part of the map or menu were you in? If you don't remember the exact name, please describe the area or what you were trying to do in the menu. The entire map
What were you doing when the issue occurred? E.g. respawning a squad mate at a beacon, using an ability, a squad mate left the game. Using meds/Tactical ability
Did your squad mates also experience the issue? Yes
How many matches had you played in a row before the issue occurred? Many, it happens every time.
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) No matter when you try it.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
How severe is your issue? Major impacts to gameplay
What happens when the bug occurs? When a wraith has the kunai equipped, her usage of meds along with her tactical ability takes much longer to initiate.
What should be happening instead? She uses these items/abilities as fast as she would with her fists out
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have no kunai equipped, and use your tactical ability. Record how long it takes to start using it. Then do the same, but with the kunai equipped. You will notice a clear disadvantage of using this cosmetic.

‌

When Wraith has her Kunai equipped, she uses both meds and her tactical ability in a delayed fashion. It takes extra time to initiate these. This has gotten players killed in both the storm (delay when using meds), and in game (unable to phase in time). Players who have puchased the cosmetic (NRG_aceu, a very popular streamer who even had a sponsored EA stream for example) have opted to disable use of the Kunai due to it's disadvantages.

This needs to be fixed.
