I can't be the only person to have noticed this. But ever since the most recent patch, lock-on missle weapons seem to sometimes hit rear torsos.

I know some mechs have weird hitboxes, but it's happening on mechs now that never had these issues before. Light mechs in particular.

I just got out of a game where I had lrm boats in front of me (direct LoS fire) and had my back destroyed before my front. I couldn't have had anyone else behind me doing damage, either. It came from the missles.

Is it possible the new arc changes have a bug or just weird pathing that sometimes leads to back damage when it shouldn't? Has anyone else experienced this? Or does anyone else even care at this point either way?

Are you sure you didn't have friendly LRM boats behind you firing into your back?

HSR being wonky, or a case of bad hitboxes on a mech. Probably both at the same time.
