[2020] Is my game just buggy or are Gambit motes harder to collect than before?

Hey guys,

So this has been bugging me for some time now. I don't know if this has been the case for a long time already, as I came back when BL dropped. Last time I played was when Forge was still a thing, and everything was fine.

I'm talking about collecting motes, or rather how easy it was back then. I could just kill a mob in Gambit, and as soon as the mote dropped, I instantly got it because I was in its range.

Now after BL whenever I kill a mob, the mote just drops on me, near me, and as soon as I walk over it, usually nothing happens. I have to walk back and that's when I usually get it, as if the range is absolutely f-ed up or something. My game runs fine on max settings, averaging at about 80fps, my connection is more than good (I don't know my ping in this game though, can I check it somewhere?), so yeah. Don't know what's causing it.

Has this always been the case? Did I just forget how weird it was to grab them? Or is this a new feature with Beyond Light?
