This bug has flown under the radar since the release of Astrocyte Verse in season 7. If you put on the Astrocyte Verse Exotic helmet and blink while moving slowly (or blink below a particular height?) it will send you flying down to the ground dealing MASSIVE DAMAGE enough to clean up 85% - 90% of your health. This is a huge issue in pvp for anyone using this exotic, I main the blink play style because I enjoy it the most but I don’t want to have to change the way I play because of persistent game bugs. The problem is made worse when getting eliminated from a comp round for trying to blink evade (even after I've escaped fire with minimal damage but still die to the bug). This happens ALL THE TIME inside a smoke grenade I have a video of this linked below.
I also came across a Reddit post detailing this exact problem. A user called CrazedFirebaIl has done a bunch of testing on the subject. I've linked a video of his along with the post, it's well worth a read if this affects you. CrazedFirebaIls tests show that the problem is replicable.
CrazedFirebaIl:
"From what I can tell, blinking upwards leaves you with one other blink charge and using this mid-air sends you back down to the ground without harm. This bug only seems to happen when not moving very fast, or at the least when moving slower than sprint speed. If you jump and then activate your blink at a point lower than your original starting point, it thrusts you downwards with immense speed and breaks your ankles, dealing insane damage."

I'm not familiar with the process on how to fix this so I’ll record it every time it happens and provide updated instances to a new post after it fades into oblivion.
