During my Beta Survival series, on Episode 4 I ran into a problem with some Piglins and Piglin Brutes.
It seems that Sword carrying Piglins and Piglin Brutes are able to hit and hurt the player from a long distance with melee attacks, even at different elevations and through walls.
See video here: Bug Video
World is hosted on a Windows 10 Laptop and connected via a VPN.
Client is a Windows 10 PC with MC Beta 1.16.210.61
World settings are all default with all Experimental Toggles switched on.
Difficulty: Normal
I tried to reproduce this in another world but was unable to replicate it with Piglins spawned in from a spawn egg. So I assume it only happens with naturally spawning Piglins and Piglin Brutes.
To Reproduce:
1. Start a survival world in the Beta with Experimental Toggles On.
2. Join the world from another PC.
3. Find a Bastion
4. Let the Piglins Attack you.
Expected Behaviour:
Sword carrying Piglins and Piglin Brutes should not be able to attack from more than 1 block away from the player.
Behaviour Experienced:
Sword carrying Piglins and Piglin Brutes can attack and hurt the player from at least 6 blocks away, and even without line of sight (through walls) at elevations different to the player.

We had no luck reproducing that one. We have an idea about where the issue came from - did you notice any lag on the world that you experienced the issue on?
Is this still an issue in the latest version of beta, or on retail version? If so, can you add it to the affected versions?
