While not exactly contributing to bug report details... I do want to say that while it IS a bug, it's also one of the main things keeping Arbalest relatively fun to play or competent at all in PVE & PVP.

I'd argue that a lot is taken away from a class that already has little going for it if this were to be hypothetically fixed.

Not trying to turn this into a Balance Fu thread, mind, but personally I'd vouch for it to be made intentional with that in mind, because bluntly speaking I think the class will suck if this mechanic were to be removed. Obviously the decision is yours though, Dev, merely dropping in two cents on how the "fix" would very negatively impact it.
