Game Mechanics: Melee hitbox issue: facing target bug

[lethdar]

So what we can tell from these tests is the hitbox on live has a range that is smaller than 15.68 locs, but perhaps slightly larger than 15.62.

On our server the hitbox is at least smaller than 16.03 locs (range my char was oor or attack) with a tested boundary at 15.93 locs being in range.

This seems to show that the hitboxes between live and red99 are basically the same, with the tested difference being less than 1 loc long(though note, our hitbox is larger than lives). Certainly not justification for 50 to 100% increases over what we currently have.

Like it has been explained before, the stationary range is fine. The range on moving targets because of the nature of reporting locations via serverside : clientside communication is...way off.

Maybe since you cannot currently be facing away while behind your target when jousting is why hit boxes seem so small in pvp and pve. Would fixing this technically be increasing the hitbox by 50%?
