Hitbox too big dis/advantage

Hey,

since S0 i tried out many Legends.

After they nerfed my main Lifeline i switched to Bangalore but this Legend is with the new and "better" Legends more and more useless (sry Bang Mains) so i played a few Weeks Octane, Mirage, Bloodhound, Caustic, Gibraltar, Valk, Horizon , Ash, Valk, Maggie, Fuse, and now i play Pathfinder.

With all Legends i played a few hundred until thousand kills, with som eLegends more with other less.

So what i know now is that the Hitbox make a uge Advantage or disadvantage!

In my Opinion to much for a BR Shooter where it should be Aim, movement, position > rest.

Wraith, Octane and the lovely Wattson are very hard to hit and at the other side Fuse, Pathfinder, Revenant are huge Trucks....

I dont speak about Gibby and Caustic, both get 15% less dmg and Gibby have the Dome and his Gunshield so he is a Fortress...

Why is it impossible to patch all Legends at the same size (Hitbox size) ?

Are u not confused why the most picked class(es) in the game, wraith and Octane, have the most potential for solo play and are that Legends with the most kills.

Small Hitbox + Movement Class is a way to strong.

I realize  the Hitbox with every class in every match, so it is no deal for my enemy to beam me as a Pathinder, but if i play with Wattson they have trouble to hit me...

    @Bronsn The reason why revenant will never be viable, can’t be surprising when he has almost twice the hitbox of wraith lol

    They knew that the hitboxes are a win or lose. They consciously made that decision long ago. There were numerous threads about that this will make smaller legends OP.

    They do not care. It's purposefully broken to give TTVs "content" so they can "stomp noobs" in public matches. Just looks how many of TTVs are playing exclusively Wrath...

    Because she is the smallest legend.

    Mind You she got even smaller hitboxes because of how she ran! Now she is running straightened up before the adjustment she ran like Naruto (lol).

    One thing that You can utilize here to a degree is "broken" animations. Just move around like ShivFPS to minimize the probability of being hit.

    @Bronsn I don't mean to always be on about Pathfinder, but his hitbox is atrocious. I don't know if they've fixed him since launch (I somehow doubt it) but at launch you could literally shoot the air between his legs or between his arms & body and do damage. That's the definition of "bullet magnet."
