3.23.2 Bladefall + Spell Cascade Support bug

Following the 3.23.2 patch Bladefalls cast position doesn't match the cursors position. This varies with angle in relation to the player character, and does not occur at all angles, but there is a sizable gap between cursor position and where the blades actually land. The problem has persisted across driver updates and attempting to switch between DX11 and DX12 settings. This problem effectively makes Bladefall useless when used with Blade Blast, as the volleys become very difficult to adequately aim or target.

Further testing seems to indicate the problem is associated with Spell Cascade Support and Bladefalls interaction.

I have also encountered this issue. Randomly will target offscreen even when mouse is in center of screen.

See clip below:

same thing goes for me, I was doing just fine with it on controller before yesterdays patch. now its practically unusable especially against bosses. What happens is even though you are targetting an enemy the bladefall just seems to choose random spots to drop down on.
I've also had this bug happen, see reference image. Cursor was in position of red dot.

Just wanted to add this is also a problem with Awakened Spell Cascade. Not many people use that with Bladefall, but thought I'd mention it to avoid it flying under the radar.

I can confirm I am also seeing this. The bug only seems to occur when Bladefall is supported by either Spell Cascade or Awakened Spell Cascade. It is easily reproducible and occurs in any map or hideout.

For example, in the linked image, targeting anywhere in the red circle will cause blades to fall in the area you see in the image. This also happens for other small circular areas at various distances from the character. When the blades fall in the wrong spot, they always seem to fall a set distance from the character.
