    So being a shooter v a Grievous player, I'm being knocked down by his hitbox on thrust surge when he's nowhere near me (doesn't happen all the time), followed by a crawl rush that I rolled away from but due to the large hit box of that ability or the input lag, I'm hit anyway and I've died due to bad development. The hitbox of both abilities are too big!! Good job on ruining the fun for shooters guys 🤝

  • Absolutely ruined heroes versus villains game mode for shooters having grievous have a hit box like that for thrust surge and claw rush. All people do now is spam both abilities, run away and repeat. Even if you by a miracle survive with a slither of health during the knock down of the abilities (usually because they are not a good grievous player or not any lag) as soon as you get up you get 1 swiped killed by his saber. So am I meant to just go a buggy saber character now? I agree with having his hit box reduced and definitely reduce the damage claw rush does. Great balanced game you have here DICE, bravo!

  • I stumbled upon this BUG again on reddit, you can check it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/StarWarsBattlefront/comments/13ocu2a/what_are_these_hitboxes_lol/

    I was aware that they never fixed this, but I'd like to put one final proof that this BUG which was introduced as soon as Grievous launched in late 2018 has never been touched by devs despite the countless reports in many places. It wasn't even acknowledged, like most of the BUGs in this game's history.

    So this report is about an issue that still plagues this game, therefore it's not me necroing old posts (before moderation thinks otherwise).
