Spirit stuck in animation after phasing (still present since PTB)

SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE:

Since the PTB, there's been a visual bug with The Spirit that has now made it to live servers. After phasing, The Spirit always gets stuck in her post-phase animation. Her hands appear frozen in place, completely static, as if she’s stuck in a freeze-frame. This remains until I perform an interaction (like damaging a generator, picking up a survivor, etc.) or land a weapon hit. Once I do, her animation returns to normal.

PLATFORM: Steam

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW THE ISSUE OCCURED:

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Start a match as The Spirit
  2. Use the phase walk ability
  3. After coming out of phase, observe her hand/idle animation
  4. Bug occurs intermittently — hands remain stuck in a frozen position

Additional Notes:

  • The bug was already present in the PTB but hasn't been fixed before going live
  • It affects immersion and makes it look like the game is lagging or broken visually
  • Doesn’t impact gameplay functionally, but is visually disruptive

Please fix this — The Spirit’s animations are a big part of her feel and flow!
