Vantage ult can hit players behind cover
tl;dr In case you don't feel like reading the whole post, check out this clip which provides a clear view of the issue: Intro Hi folks, I'm writing because I have been noticing some...

Watch as the vantage shot is deflected by ally Wraith's hitbox despite missing her by a considerable margin. The next shot is fired significantly closer to the crate than the first shot was to Wraith, but does not deflect off of it. This is proof of what I'm saying about the behavior of the Vantage bullet. It behaves like a bowling ball in terms of hitting players, but like a normal bullet when it comes to hitting cover.
Look at the impact point of the bullet on the training dummy. This dummy is not at all exposed at the point where the bullet lands.
If this shot deflects off the wraith's hitbox, how is it possible for the second shot to sneak by the crate - unless what I'm saying is true?
That looks like a lot of apples and oranges there, and picking what tastes better.
either way we are just going to have to disagree on this.
@Asmodeus566
It seems like we will have to disagree, because the evidence clearly supports what I am saying, while you are disagreeing without any proof.Your first set of vids and pics including the close ups where all the proof I needed to come up with my evaluation of your claim, providing a different data point would not be looking at the same perameters.
I am not dismissing your claim totally just stating with what you are providing it is all so on the razors edge that it is not a clear cut case that Vantage can hit people behind cover, as they may just be out of cover. Your pics not mine and like I say that bots leg looked just out of cover.
In other words, you do not have any explanation for the newest evidence, but you are choosing to maintain your position regardless.
I will ask you again the same question I asked in my most recent post.> Vantage's bullet behaves like a bowling ball in terms of hitting players, but like a normal bullet when it comes to hitting cover.
> If this shot deflects off the wraith's hitbox, how is it possible for the second shot not to deflect off the crate — unless what I'm saying is true?
Either way I do have to say even though we will disagree on this topic. I had a very nice discussion with you about it and like I said if you think that strongly about it post it in the bug section. Maybe you are right and my eyes are deceiving me.
Fair enough, I appreciate your criticism of the initial evidence as it led me to create a clearer follow-up post.
no problem, I do know that weapons react differently vs Allie’s however I have not tested that stuff and the firing range has some unique qualities as per weapons and interactions. I read somewhere on the boards someone was claiming the bullets would richochet off of walls and such.
- @Asmodeus566 I have tested her enough in the firing range to tell you with complete confidence that, YES, she can hit targets behind cover and as well as making contact without aiming within the hit box. This has been proven already with countless videos or casuals as well as top players. There is no debate here.... much like the hamster servers EA refuses to upgrade.
