Dodge window on Braha's Grab Reduced?
Today, playing about an hour after maintenance, I decided to do island ruins, my favorite raid to play with twin spear lann. I noticed that, after being able to consistently do no hit runs in parties before today, his insta-kill grab is now virtually impossible to dodge with spear dash (presumably since it takes longer to move forward and covers slightly less distance than most other character's dodges). I went into practice mode and watched a few videos, practiced dodging the grab for about an hour and a half (since he rarely ever uses it) and could not find any consistent point that allowed me to dodge the attack, either with the distance dodge (running along the back of the stage and dodging at a certain point) or the back left corner dodge (running into the back left corner of the stage and dodging at a certain point), which, prior to today, would allow you to dodge the grab but still take a marginal amount of damage (for some unexplained reason). I was able to dodge using both tactics but only one time per tactic over a span of an hour and a half, despite trying a range of different dodge timings that landed me different distances from his fist, and even when trying the same tactic that worked over again, I cannot get it to work again. As of now the only way i can consistently dodge the grab is with absolute fury, which would be fine if it didn't have a 20 second cooldown, potentially damning you if Braha arbitrarily decides to use his grab when AS is on cooldown, since it is possible for you to be put in a situation where the only way to dodge his hand sweep is by using absolute fury (being in the very corner of the stage when he puts his hand down for the sweep). I have 70 base attack speed, for reference.
Anyone else notice this, or did I just get worse overnight?

go to the right side and dodge forwards/towards braha
shouldnt be dodging from the left anyways as thats where your partner is going to be taking advantage of the free damage
forward+left (so you move diagonally) has a larger window and you also won't get hit.
I always dodge diagonally towards Braha though.
