  • Are you talking about it from enemies turning from a corner from behind you? It only detects enemies in a 90 degree angle in your FOV while using the ability. It also has a limit of how far it will detect, so they could've been outside of that range, and just came into the range of it (after you used the ability).

  • I am playing on PS4 but I can confirm that this ability is not functioning as intended. I pretty much only play Bloodhound and have noticed a severe discrepancy in this ability’s function in Season Four.

    It often will not detect enemies in Bloodhound’s field of view on differing levels in a building even if they are directly in front of you, which is not how this ability was functioning prior to the patch. 

    Please see below clip, where scan fails to detect both a bangalore and a caustic directly in my range

    @AnticCarnival77 They were most definitely inside the scan view and it was within the 90 degree FOV, but I’ve picked up enemies from behind me and above me.
