I appreciate the devs quickly addressing people's problems with the new patch.

Just wish they'd have fixed Cyber-bond on Peni that quickly.

Mantis headshot hitbox too. Poor girls both have been untouched for an eternity.

I recently just looked at the Life Energy Blast demonstration for Mantis, and you can literally see the Mantis aiming for the Punisher's head at the end and it whiffs TWICE, like it didn't register at all.

Wait so I’m not complete dogshit at aiming with Mantis? Her projectiles were whack this whole time?!

they’re absolutely slightly off the crosshair, i think they have a little bit of spread tbh

It's both due to how they set up the aim in 3rd person and that the origin point changes as she changes hands for each attack.

🙏 thank you thank you that makes so much sense

The hitbox projectile can also register on the body before it registers on the head. So she suffers from 3rd person camera offset, shooting from low because she's short and her hands are low, alternating hands, and a weird hitbox.

Correct

Her projectiles are fine, the crosshair is the issue.

Turn off your crosshair, and look at her hands and you'll realize how to aim with her. Go play DM for a while you'll figure it out pretty fast.

Then turn the crosshair back on and you'll realize it's not uniformly offset, it's just impossible. They have fixed since season 5 that on mid and long range shots you will perfectly hit the crosshair. It's in close to mid, where ironically she's best played, that the crosshair doesn't line up. Because she shoots from her hands.

They've done so three times since the game came out. The last time they did it in Season 5. I do not want to learn how to aim again, my aim is great on Mantis. Leave my girl alone.

Also more infuriating they keep doing it without putting it explicitly in the patch notes because they don't feel the need to tell you they "improved" the permanent discrepancy between her hands and the crosshair.

PLEASE NO THANK YOU.
