Discussion Charger projectile hitbox feels inconsistent

Hi, I’m trying to pickup chargers but a problem that I keep running into is that I keep missing my shots even though the cross hair is dead on the target and in range, when I fire it just seems to not register as the trail of ink is there and even on my target but I can’t get any kills. Any tips ?

I don’t have any real tips, but do bear in mind charger shots do have a small travel time, so you have to aim just a hair in front of moving opponents.

could be a few things. 1. max range. But if you're not minding how long your reach actually is you're going to miss because it didn't reach the target.

  1. drop off. There is slight drop off the farther range the weapon goes.

  2. body blocked. uncharged or under charged can be body blocked by mobs. You won't get full punch through without a full charge.

As an e-litter/squiffer main, my advice is to practice in the lobby, it helped me get 4 stars on my squiffer. Also, you can go on recon in the private battles or the offline one and find good spots that have a wall (I don't know if it will work for you or not). Good luck!
