Rain of Arrows only hits twice?

I have this exact same problem. As far as I can tell it is a timing issue - the pet that spawns the actual attack is not sync'd up properly for every user ( perhaps those of us with some kind of latency). 2 ticks is all I ever get, so I deleted my archery blaster due to the power being "nerf" by 1/3rd for me.
I've mentioned this to castle a couple times but they did nothing about it because they could not reproduce the issue.
I am an ebil markeeter and will steal your moneiz ...correction stole your moneiz. I support keeping the poor down because it is impossible to make moneiz in this game.
I did a search for this bug and didn't find it reported yet.
The power description says it should be hitting each target three times. Instead, my combat log looks like this:
Rain of Arrows: HIT PPD Shell! Your RainofArrows power had a 95.00% chance to hit, you rolled a 80.00.
Rain of Arrows: You hit PPD Shell for 117.6 points of lethal damage!
Rain of Arrows: You hit PPD Shell for 117.6 points of lethal damage!
That's it. The enemy did not die from the damage. There was only one roll for the single enemy I was testing it against.
About half the time, the combat log looks like this:
Rain of Arrows: MISSED Raserei Ubermenschen Fire!! Your RainofArrows power had a 80.00% chance to hit, you rolled a 94.77.
Rain of Arrows: HIT Raserei Ubermenschen Fire! Your RainofArrows power had a 95.00% chance to hit, you rolled a 73.86.
Rain of Arrows: You hit Raserei Ubermenschen Fire for 180.59 points of lethal damage!
Rain of Arrows: You hit Raserei Ubermenschen Fire for 180.59 points of lethal damage!
That first miss ALWAYS misses with an 80% chance to hit. I have a 95% chance to hit against blue con minions, so I know something strange is going on here. I do not have any powers running or anything proccing that could affect my chance to hit. The enemies did not debuff me. It always says 80% with a miss when this pops into the combat log.
I have watched my combat log for at least 20 attempts tonight and I did not get three hits with Rain of Arrows a single time.
A powerset's best attack should not be bugged like this. I could be doing 50% more damage if it was working as it says it should in the detailed info.
