- Proposal
- reduce those outliers eg the firespray (dont know exactly what it was changed to on resto so this already may be in the right ballpark) and up over to bring them a bit more in line Im not suggesting par for par but when 2 ships are almost 4 times more likely to be hit then something is still way off.
- Justification
- a handful of neutral ships are at a severe disadvantage in both PVE and PVP especially PVE/PVP roles in which they should shine.
eg the rhik and convoys its a fast ship with a narrow front profile that should make it a good jouster however due its top bottom profile its not as soon as it approaches the swarm it starts getting melted from above and below due to being almost 4 times likely to be hit than a xwing 4+ v a bwing for eg
- Motivation
- ship balance and more people using more ships
I understand from past PV's that neutral hitboxes where changed to the GU17 sizes of live which brought them down massively on some ships.
However some are still so massive they are at such a disadvantage across all elements of play PVE and PVP, the how more likely to be hit is based on the AI's actual code (which i presume resto hasnt changed from source) v the hitbox size, not some "well thats how it feels to me" the xwing tie def hitbox of 7m sphere is used as the 1.0
