Incomplete Swing Bug

[Itsashane]

I've noticed that when I do an incomplete swing, usually by being too close, it deals reduced damage, however when the AI does the same they deal the same they do when they complete the whole swing. I've tested this as best as by redoing a fight a few times I can and it isn't armor or movement as far as I can tell, but this bug is extremely frustrating to deal with. Apologies if this is poorly formatted, I've never used a forum before.
