Lightsaber slash marks not visible on some animations

I have been absolutely adoring the combat and the fluidity of the game as a whole thus far, and have really felt engaged in every aspect of control that I have over a fight.  There are so many different ways to take on enemies, and it really makes you feel like a Jedi whilst keeping you from being boringly overpowered.  It's a lovely balance, and I applaud the devs for striking it so well!

That said, there is one thing that often times throws off my immersion, and it seems to be a fairly small glitch.  Typically when striking an enemy, whether it be a standard attack or a finishing animation, those enemies will receive a slash-mark or cut-mark from your lightsaber.  This is AWESOME, and something I am so glad was included into the game, because it stops the lightsaber from feeling like a baseball bat.  This glitch, however, causes maybe one or two of the animations not to render any cut-marks, and it seems isolated to Storm troopers.  The animations in question are:  1) Ducking under a strormtrooper and flipping them over your back, slashing their underside/belly.  2) Parrying the storm troopers melee, disarming them of their baton, and swinging at their midsection whilst their arms are still raised.  

Those two in particular seem to give no cut-marks, and if they do, they are incredibly rare and practically invisible.  This isn't anything major, but a quality of life thing that I wished to mention just to maintain the consistency of how incredible the game feels.  

Thank you for taking the time to read this!  Have a lovely day/night
