Inconsistency in Throwing Weapon Patterns

[GilgaMelchi]

This has been going on for over a year now. And it still bugs me off.

Around two years ago, all throwing weapons had their accuracy fixed and were really satisfying to use. But around 17.4.5 when Spira Prime was released, some of them went back to their previous wonky way of throwing.

Here are some gifs with various throwing weapons to show that all of them have different patterns. I'm not sure if it is intended or not, but it makes some of them really hard to aim.
All these gifs are made without any mod equipped on the weapons tested.

IMO Hikou and Hikou Prime have the correct pattern of throwing, all throwing weapon should have the same.

MK1-Kunai, Kunai,  Despair and Spira Prime all have a weird "triangle" pattern when throwing them that is rally hard to aim with it (up, left, up, down, up, left, up, down and so on)

And then the third category where they hit in a vertical line which is not excessively hard to predict, but still not as accurate as the hikou/prime (up, down, up, down and so on)

Also, the forum has a really hard time handling spoilers, I'm done trying to use them :P

I've been waiting for this to be fixed for a while. The one that bugs me the most is spira prime, a crit weapon reliant on head shots that is at best annoying to aim correctly. I was excited to pick them up initially but ended up not using them because of the poor accuracy.

Exactly, I found this the same way. Spira and Spira Prime are supposed to be slow but deadly and accurate, and should be relying on headshots for crits, but it's almost impossible to predict where the next shot will land, resulting in the Spira and Spira Prime being only average when they could be god tier. On the opposite Hikou and Hikou Prime are rapid fire spray and pray weapons but they have pinpoint accuracy, this doesn't make any sense.

I tried to raise attention for this inconvenience a while ago but didn't have proper recording tools. Now that I have, I took the opportunity to make these gifs and a new topic.

Despair is still my most used secondary but I barely touch them anymore since they remove the 100% accuracy and added in randomization to the flight pathing :/ feels bad man.

Yeah, this REALLY needs fixing. +1 to OP for the clear visuals on it!
