Mecanist Mace skill doesn't apply barrier

[Theroi.9536]

Heyo,

 

Not sure if this is a bug or an undocumented feature from the 27th patch but 

 

The first mace skill from engineer > mecanist used to give barrier on the last auto of the chain

Barrier Blast

¾

Smash your target with a final heavy strike, inflicting additional confusion. You, your mech, and allies near you gain barrier.

Now it doesn't provide barrier anymore.

Skill was renamed to MACE BLAST : Smash your target with a final heavy strike, inflicting additional confusion

Barrier application has been moved to second mace skill Energizing Slam

 

So Is this change intented & undocumented in the patch note for some reason, or is it just a bug, an oversight ? 

Have a nice day,
