Totally disagree. I have been playing Path forever (40k+ kills on him). But I enjoy playing other characters as well and I 100% feel the difference with regard to how fast I’m being melted. Shooting people in the limbs is very common in any FPS. Taking full damage on limbs is a big deal; especially when skill is relatively close between players.

@Axs5626Sxa5001 I dunno. I don't like Low Profile or Fortified but when I compare Gibraltar's arms/legs to the teeny little arms on Lifeline/Wraith and the twigs Pathfinder calls legs... I kind of want to up the damage for degree of difficulty. I'm kidding but limbs are so small for some characters they probably aren't hit there as often as others. Especially so for legs since they often aren't targeted. Also, the size difference can be so great that one Legend's body might take up the same amount of space as another Legend's body + arms so its arguable that there should be no difference in damage.

Pathfinder has a unique hitbox so this might not apply to him. I do often hear he has odd animations/positions for his arms that may justify that though.
