Hit boxes broken on left, center and right torso?

Really?

Go for the legs Boo. Go for the legs.

It's your only chance.

Another good option is the right arm. It becomes much easier to deal with a ballistic variant after you destroy its right arm which is not too hard. That's why I don't play them now. I must say however that they do tend to cling to life rather tenaciously.

The broken hit box issue is why the 'zombie' build remains popular. With only a pair of madium lasers in CT and as many SRM6 racks as you can cram into the LT, it works, but only because the ghost hit boxes cut damage.

pretty sure this has been explained a thousand times as it works the exact same way on every single mech, if you shoot a centurion in the stub of an arm it transfers 50% damage to the closest side torso and if that side torso is gone as well, only 25% of the damage goes to the CT. Meaning its WORKING AS INTENDED (just sweep the leg)

Uhm, no, it's not. After a section is destroyed, full damage is supposed to be applied to the following section, because the arm or torso that was destroyed has no points left with which to absorb incoming damage. The trouble a few of the mechs (Centurions in particular) in MWO have is that the damage reduction mechanic remains in place after the points of the destroyed sections are depleted. In short, IT'S BROKEN.

has been this way since the mech came out:P how all the mechs should feel when u try to kill them. no one would complain about ppc if all mechs had cent type hitboxes. game would be fun as hell:D
