Chargers, Hit Boxes, And You

[revizion]

Can we talk about the tiny hitboxes on Chargers for a second?

Not only do these things swarm, hit for way more than "low melee damage", and stagger on almost every hit...they're also nigh impossible to hit reliably with a horizontal melee attack. I've had more than one occasion where a swarmer is standing directly in front of me, swiping away at me until my frame glows red while I swing at the air directly above their ...heads (I guess that's what it is) to no avail.

Can we PLEASE do something about this? They're frustrating enough as it is....

I just want to know where their damn "head" is...my poor Lex wants dem Headshots.

Surely it's not where a head is supposed to be, since i never got a head shot on them, not even with a Strun.

I dunno about you guys, but I've never really had a problem with the chargers, on my Volt frame or Rhino frame. On Volt with the dual heat swords, I kinda just wrecked them with jump attacks and charge attacks. And with Gram on Rhino, I just do regular attacks and the bodies pile up. I would recommend getting fire damage for these little bastards... and as far as shooting them goes, for me it's their speed, not the hitboxes. Try using jump attacks more, for when they do, inevitably, swarm you.

ive made a post about this back a while, though it got no love.

Daggers have it worst.
