Melee Finishers not bypassing shields

[VRKestrel]

Heyho WF-Community,

as the title suggests, I'm having a wierd bug where melee finishers (not ground finishers) do not bypass shields.

From what I can tell weapon type/mod/frame does not seem to make a difference.

I found out about this bug when comparing melee finishers with and without mods. With mods I always saw blue damage numbers ( indicating damage done to shields) along with the "regular" yellow numbers (crits/stealth) but since the enemy alwas died anyway, I didn't really think too much of it. Removing each and every mod however, confirmed that melee finishers do indeed not bypass shielding.

I can confirm the same issue with with Ash's bladestorm. Only marking an enemy once and not having attacked said enemy in any other way, he always loses some shields.

Finisher damage dealt by slashprocs seem to be working just fine, though (aka ignoring shields).
