Just to add to this, The patch 1.1 poison arrow fix worked for a few days & now the bug is back, Penetrating arrow also suffers from the same bug. Since slowing down light/heavy attacks as above ruined fluidity but also ruined Triple shot from being used in combat situations as it has even more delay on top of its original delay.
