Survivors immune to knives when vaulting

I just played a couple games of trickster and learned that when survivors vault (fast vault at least, not quite sure about mediums yet), trickster’s knives go completely through them. Is this intentional and is anyone else noticing this?

    Sounds like a bug. I haven't played a lot of trickster to experience it but I'm about 99% sure you should be able to hit people while they're vaulting.

    If you have some video proof I would report it the bug section or make an edit on this post so others can get an idea of what you mean. It's also possible your knives are missing due to latency issues.

    Edit: Also what Bloodshade said. The model hitboxes aren't exactly what you see so you could just be missing as well. A video would really help to try and better understand the problem.

    I haven't had this issue. Just played several matches as Trickster and vaults were easy four/five knives. It could be like bloodshade said above with the hitbox. I could see a fast vault from an angle being 'misses.'

    I've not had this issue. In fact, my experience has been the complete opposite: a vaulting survivor is many free knives as they are both locked in the animation and while they run away.
