6-4 up, could be a nice win for us along comes spider on 64% starts running round 4 of our team, and I can see clearly shots are landing on target, but 5 minutes later and he his still on 63% guess what, we lost.... wasn't just too him though.. but he did wipe out 2..... the only weapon I know that clearly hits a spider is the gauss rifle...anything else and you would be better of throwing sticks at them....

Hitboxes work fine on spider, you just have to hit them. You may be experiencing HSR lag shielding, which happens on any mech that lags (Not just spider). I have seen almost every mech look invincible with the HSR bug. My spider gets hit fine because I have a low ping.

I recently watched a splattercat hit a spider at 50m or so that was heading straight at cat in the ct with six SRM6's, granted many of the SRM's missed due to the size of the missile spread (choke) and the smallness of the spiders 25 ton silhouette, but enough of those 36 SRMs did hit the spider to ruin it's day yet the spider shrugged them off as if it was only grazed by one missile.

Seems kind of buggy when compared to a raven or commando in my 3000+ matches.

Its hit detection in general not issues with the Spider Hitboxes.

Just last night I have two seperate occurances.

In one, I retreated my Spider out of the line of fire, even saw the PPCs fly past my mech in a clear miss and somehow they still managed to slam into my CT pretty much totally takeing the armor out in that section. I even stopped and looked around but no other enemies where in a postion to hit me so it had to be the clear misses I saw.

Another case, I was firing at an Atlas in my Catapult. I fired 3 dual ER PPC bursts to upper chest/head area, clearly seeing them hit where I aimed and ended up hitting him in the legs three times.

I can also mention the numerous times I have clearly missed a target, including Spiders, and killed them.
