Cathartic Melody Persistently Causing Damage Instead of Healing

BarqueBarque Member, Alpha Two
in Alpha Two Bug Reporting
Description
Cathartic Melody bugged as a session-long problem, in which it inflicted damage instead of heals. Logs showed it "healing" as a negative value.

Bug Reproduction Steps
I was unable to reproduce due to Alpha 2 access issues. I was farming Goblins near Lionhold. I believe the problem started after fighting undead in the Horns of Betrayal event. Once the bug took effect, I took damage every time I engaged combat when I caused damage to a mob.

The visual effect of Cathartic Melody persisted with the damage bug. Using a different Melody resulted in two "rings"; Cathartic and whatever Melody I selected. The bug and Cathartic Melody visual persisted even after removing it from my build. I added Cathartic Melody back to my build, and two Cathartic Melody "rings" appeared.

Expected Result
My expectation is that Cathartic Melody should always cause healing with a positive value. Perhaps its possible that Cathartic Melody causes "negative healing" (damage) when attacking undead. If so, I expect to be able to disable/disengage Cathartic Melody to avoid "negative healing".

Actual Result
In the bugged state, attacking mobs caused negative values of healing (damage) causing a massive loss of health when engaging in combat. Once this mode started it could not be disabled/disengaged.

Thank you.
