Legion mending add-ons bugged?

So I played a match a few minutes ago against a legion with both of those add-ons that increase the time it takes to mend. Now, for some reason the time kept increasing significantly after each time I had to mend. I was unhooked, got hit, then legion went after someone else, hooked them, and then went for me again with BBQ while I was still mending at like 75%. Now my question is whether this is intentional or not as the add-ons' descriptions don't mention anything about an increasing of the time after each hit.

I decided to record some of it but unfortunately the legion decided to kill me so I could not record for too long. But you still get the idea how long it would have taken.

    This bug has been reported, and a fix is on the way. Since its a game breaking bug that can be exploited by Legion players, they can be reported/softbanned for intentionally taking advantage of it. Word is out about this bug, and has been blasted on streams, and posted all over reddit, so players who use it have had fair enough warning.

    @TWiXT not true.

    Not every player is on a social media platform or on a forum so no not everyone has been fairly warned.

    Players are not responsible or expected to gather information about bugged addons and thus can't get banned for using them. Some people play tons of different games. Are you trying to say it's their job to know about every bug on every game? No, it's not their responsibility but the developer's.

    @TreemanXD That's not going to stop people from reporting the Legion players for exploiting the bug, nor will it stop them from informing those players via chat messages. For all the survivors know, the Legion player who abused this bug against them did it on purpose, and is feigning ignorance about it. Honestly, if you are playing Legion with these add-on's and notice that nobody is fully mending at about half the game, It's obvious something is broken and you shouldn't keep using it. So even if they haven't had the Fair warning from social media, they will have had direct experience with it, and players complaining/reporting them.

    As it currently is, getting reported once for exploiting this bug won't earn them a ban, however if they get reported multiple times for multiple matches, they will likely get banned because at that point: they know what they're doing they know its wrong, and they have no excuse.

    @TWiXT most would just assume the players didn’t know what to do and on PS4 you can set messages to private and make it to where you don’t receive friend request. People may report them but I doubt they’ll be banned.

    Thanks for clarifying. I hope they'll take care of it soon.
