the core gets shot in the direction I intended which should reset strike cooldowns but it doesn't reset. Not sure if there's a hidden timing or if it's a bug. The same combo done slowly on the first attempt resets the strike. But the second combo done more quickly does not reset the strike.

I think you're actually hitting the core with your strike before the blobbo can hit it so it doesn't count the reset

you're right. But i guess it's pretty annoying that the slime disappears as if it had possesion of the core.
