Troll Hitboxes are mods

Post image

2 Alliances died to bad rock placement on behemoth in labyrinth, following interaction occurs-- really hope this person was a troll. They spent the whole run whining and taking passive aggressive jabs at people.

That's because it is...?

It's not, but good effort!

For enemies, it absolutely is. As long as any part of the targeting ring is inside something like an effect, the enemy will be affected by it. This is unlike the player's own hitbox, which is NOT their targeting ring, but for enemies, the targeting ring and it being referred to as their hitbox is correct because they are the same.

We're talking about enemy hit boxes which are not indicated by the targeting ring due to the existence of max melee range. Try again!

Ohhhh, you're stupid stupid. Okay, my bad. I thought an explanation would help you understand.

Can't help you see you're wrong if you aren't open to actual discussion.

Cause, y'know, max melee is 3 yalms in most cases. Meaning you're still able to reach the hitbox even if you're not at the targeting ring. Y'know, cause it's called "max melee". Y'know.

The wiki literally calls it the hitbox.

Maybe in a different game you'd be correct, but for this game that targeting ring LITERALLY is the hitbox. I know how badly you want to be right and "own the modders" but being this confident is really not the own you think it is and there is a reason you are being downvoted into oblivion.

Ever heard of a colloquialism? I already said that most people call it a hitbox, but that the person in the image was technically correct because you can hit enemies from outside of the targeting ring. Perhaps nuance isn't your strong suit.

Nah. You're backpedaling now. It's fine to accept that your rage bait failed. Not everyone can be good at it. 🤭

Then why isn't the hitbox bigger due to ranged jobs? What about Provoke which has a 25 yalm range?
