Pathfinder needs to be fixed and nerfed.
I just make this a quick one, due to the bunnyhop healing fix Pathfinder is the only character now that has a chance to clutch a 1v3 situation against good players. The only one that can escape with ...

Pathfinder doesn't need a nerf at all. The holes in his upper thighs/hips need to be plugged, the things on his shoulders and arm need to be removed as they can't be hit. The spools of wire on his shoulders SHOULDN'T be able to be hit, as otherwise - whats the point in not aiming for headshots and spraying? You'd be guaranteed body shots even if you were wide of the head.
Re: his abilities getting nerfed - come off it. Without the maneuverability he's instadead. As someone who mained him before they changed the hitbox I remember what it was like to get rinsed by everyone just because of how massive he is. When they fix the hitbox he's going to again be the tallest character with a hitbox literally twice the size of wraith and lifeline. If his tactical is nerfed then he needs to have it countered with the damage reduction passive from gibbles or gasbag. I personally think this is the wrong way to go. Plug the holes in his hitbox - remove the fluff from around his head and arm and leave him alone.
[edit] - 90% of people's complaints about Pathfinders hitbox are just people moaning about having missed their shots. I main pathfinder - I also fight pathfinders every single game like everyone else. There's the odd moment of *, and it's exacerbated very badly by the fatboy skins as they use the exact same hitbox as the skinny models.
Your opinion doesn't matter because you play a legend that has a severely broken hitbox. So when you fight other pathfinders, you're on an even playing field. So abusing the hitbox and play another legend you coward
@AdmiralTwitchyI've mained pathfinder from when his hitbox was larger than his player model. So basically mate, I'm one of a minority of players in this game who has played a legend who had a hitbox disadvantage. You play wraith, yeah?
I don't use one of the fat skins either. There's no way I can continue playing my main any fairer than I am doing.
No I don't play wraith. You're playing this game on easy mode. Broken hitboxes and super low cooldowns. Even bloodhounds Q is higher and it's the most useless ability in the game. But no it's completely fair pathfinder can grapple to any high spot in the map every 15 seconds that no one else can get to.
Sounds like you've run into some really good pathfinder players and you're mad about it. It's not really productive posting :S I played Pathfinder with his broken massive hitbox and I'll play him when they fix the holes in his hitbox. If they break it worse and make it so his wire-spools on his shoulders take damage, I'll still play him then as well.
Bloodhounds tactical needing a fix doesn't make pathfinder OP, lol.
So here's pathfinders hitbox as far as I can test with guns in game. I've hashed out the parts that you can't hit - the underside of the hips is difficult to explain but if you use my graphic as a guide to do your own testing you'll find the spots in game where you can't hit.
The biggest problem is that the two separate models are MASSIVELY different and use the same hitbox for the smaller model. The holes in his thighs and hips are the part of the hitbox that is broken - the other problems all come from the models themselves, rather than a faulty hitbox.
On the thicc models, you can't hit the shielding on the front of his navel or his backside, you can shoot straight through the top of his back where a human's shoulderblades would be.
Basically those fat skins are an effort from the art team which should have been aborted at QA.
If you've got friends who play pathfinder and use the fat skins - explain this to them and see if they keep using those skins. If they do, you know who is going for the 'easymode' that someone here was whinging about earlier.
It's important to note that you can also shoot through caustic and gibraltars backs without getting hits. You can shoot through the jetpack at the hips on every character Ive tested without getting hits. There is garbage on all the characters which you can't hit. This isn't unique to pathfinder. The thing that is different with pathfinder is the ridiculous skins that make a problem way worse than it is with anyone else.
I am so sick of Pathfinder not dying even when you down him and shoot at him!!! You still be missing even at point blank!!!.
Things like this shouldn't take long to hotfix right away. Please don't wait for a whole season to end to fix this kind of thing.
And yeah, I was mad. I down him with P2020 and Moz in Skulltown vs his Devotion.
^ This.
Update: Pathfinder hitbox... I feel I'm shooting at water. Can't die... PATHFINDER can't die.
