continue Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 (edited) image proof: Spoiler explanation: normally, yellow crit headshots have an additional 2x multiplier compared to non-crit headshots on most enemies (example below). as we can see from the image above, catchmoon pax seeker projectiles lack that extra multiplier, so the critical hit (1336) is only 2.3 times a non-critical hit (582), as opposed to the 4.6 it would be if the 2x yellow crit headshot multiplier were present. catchmoon and its pax seeker do still count as headshots and can activate hydraulic crosshairs, however, as the buff icon in the top right shows Spoiler yes my tombfinger has a 2.1 crit multiplier the hydraulic crosshairs are just there to guarantee that the pax seeker projectiles did in fact inflict headshots. the buff timers are normally 9 seconds for rank 5 and 1.5 seconds for rank 0.

Zsword Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 OKay, can you clarify what all you mean with your 'image proof'? Do you mean that Catchmoon Headshot crits don't deal the bonus x2? (but atleast they still proc Seeker.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XRosenkreuz Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 This isn't actually that surprising, considering the Catchmoon is basically a pistol Plasmor. As I understand, the seekers work off the weapon's own damage, so if it doesn't get a headshot bonus, neither will they. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
