Daggers Vs. Kubrow [Fail]

[xXaidenXdarkheartsXx]

this may not be such a big problem but i use Karyst and all of my attacks swing above feral kubrows -.-....its very quite impossible to hit them unless they are on higher ground than u (such as a lil slope)....they should fix wapons to strike the center of where ur cursor is pointed at such as....if im looking down my swipes should strike down and if im targeting a npc's head the swipes will go for the head and not a pre programed flurry of attacks that always hit in the same areas...yea ive gotten a head swipe with skana because of the V swings pushing the corpus dude side to side.....you could make all new attacks just for when u aim high or low such as a sweeping attack to the legs or head and a stabbing for daggers.

Melee hit detection is pretty bad for airborne and small enemies, not restricted to daggers. Even whips have a certain attacks that will eventually hit them, the rest is nope

If they would allow Ground Finishers to be performed by Reload+Melee, it would be easier to hit low enemies compared to trying to use a Jump slam attack that has no AoE (like some daggers).

Or maybe they could... you know, make enemy melee hitboxes extend vertically so that we could still hit them despite awkward attack animations and despite standing on a slight incline?

Wouldn't that further reduce the use of Reach-mod?

The way it is now, Reach is used as a band-aid solution because of the poor hitboxes. The Reach mod would still be useful for increasing your reach on a horizontal plane and therefore letting you strike targets earlier or more targets with multi-target melee weapons.
