Re: Mirage Porkchop Buff
@Sir_Named I misspoke, someone posted an image of all legends and how many pixels their hitbox uses from the front. Revenant is the 3rd largest and they realized they screwed up by giving him low-profile and took it away. Gibby is over 200k Pixels, Caustic is at 150k, Revenant and Mirage both at 140k, the next closest is Bloodhound at 120k and the low profile legends are 95k to 110k.
Now obviously those numbers are only from one perspective and don't take several other things into account (movement mechanics, hitbox accuracy with movement, etc.) but it's kind of odd that there's a huge discrepancy in size between Gibby and Caustic (50k pixels) but they're both fortified, while Revenant and Mirage are less than 10k from Caustic, but almost 20k more than the next below them. Not to mention Bangalore and Crypto are both in the same range as the low profile legends. Maybe Respawn needs to take a hard look at how fortify and low profile are applied, or create a mid-tier low fortify?
But yeah, Caustic has seen a few tweaks, far more than Mirage, with fortify and his gas. Fortify has been buffed itself since it's first inception and Caustic gas damage, ultimate throw range, and interactions with squadmates have all been buffed over time.
