Kinetic Barrage cancels pre-channel brain burst

Sorry because It’s been an issue for a while but I’ve only written this out now:

Issue Description:
When pre-channeling (right click hold) brain burst when kinetic barrage is active, on full charge, left-clicking does not cast the BB, you’ll need to hold left click because the charge bar regresses abit

Steps to Reproduce:
Have Kinetic Barrage as a feat, cast Psykinetic’s wrath, Right click hold to charge brain burst, then left click to cast, it won’t, and when you do click and hold which is what you’re meant to do anyway, there’s a slight regression to the charge bar. You always left click hold anyway so you don’t accidentally cancel BB if you just tap it when the charge bar is not full yet since it fully cancels the casting if not charged fully.

Here’s supporting evidence

*** JUST FOR CLARITY ON THE LAST PART ***
You can finish charging the Brain Burst by holding down your left click simultaneously with your right click, doing this locks on to whoever was last selected (indicated by their glowing head, rip) so in a horde situation and a bomber was just a bit out of sight, you can pre-charge BB and then hold LMB once he has been highlighted by the glowing head indicator which locks it on to him, meaning you don’t need to have it been fully charged to do this trick, unfortunately Kinetic Barrage regresses the bar by 25% so if the BB was fully charged, it delays it by almost a second, and regresses the bar and delays it even more while charging up too.

Thanks! I know this was not an intended feature since all BB is supposed to boost your BB channeling by 25% but it seems the right-click pre channel seems to not have been being buffed by Kinetic Barrage
