Hello fellow players.

I and my team, which consists some of the most intelligent people on this planet (including Stephen Hawking), have been working around the clock tirelessly for 4 days now to determine the Black Knight hitboxes and we are finally ready to publish our results of this extensive research:



As you can see, the CT is the main focus here. Team and I were joking at coffee breaks how stupid it would be to give this mech torso twist quirks considering how large the CT is compared to the other sections.


Tl;dr: The hitboxes on this thing are abysmal.

+1 for "whatever" and "who cares"

Please fix this mech.

As a clan player, I fail to see the problem?

Looks fine to me.

Oddly it seemed like the R variant had a better hitbox setup than the other one I tried. CT still too big but it was noticeably better.

PGI has said that there's an adjustment coming with the next patch, so We will probably see more ST death after that (if running XL).

It's better to die from more side torso deaths, but die less often. That's what I'm banking on anyway.

Shooters, you may begin shooting when your dog target appears. that's one big bulls eye!

The Thunderbolt could use some buffs.... Top Dawg is about to get eviscerated by IS range quirk nerf.

Not sure if serious, or if black knights actually that broken...

[Deathlike]

Once upon a time (before the hitbox adjustment), it was like an oversized Kintaro.

Your arms are your friends here... and it helps to "keep your hands up" (don't use arm lock for this).

That is exactly how you don't check hitboxes. lol.

The best way to do it is use a tiny damage weapon, like small laser, on a mech with near-cockpit mounts. And fire at individual spots to confirm borders. Spraying all over an area with ERLL doesn't yield very much information.
