EDIT:
FYI, the bug is at the end of video. You can see after powering the sword and after hitting with Normal Attack 1, Normal Attack 2 become unpowered state.

This can also happen in the Psykhanium. Testing attacks on the Crusher, a powered light attack connects, but the second light attack bounces off.

Edit: didn’t watch the video, so I didnt realize you were already testing in the Psykhanium. My bad. Anyway, uploaded another video to support your claim!

Here’s an example I just got of the Power Cycle energized light 2 not hitting on carapace. I think 1.0.22 fixed part of the problem because it’s not as frequent anymore, but nevertheless here’s a video from today showing that the the Energized light 2 is deactivated.

Edit: My sword doesn’t have Power Cycler. I wish it did. I meant to say energized light 2
