 Before we get into the video people I am giving away 11,500 Apex coins to being with a chance of winning them make sure you are sub to this channel drop a like on the video and leave a comment down below more details are in the video description. What is going on guys welcome back to the channel and I appreciate you being here today I am back with another Apex Legends video and today we have an interesting one and it is Apex Legends character hitboxes and how they are majorly different to a point where you get a major advantage using some legends over others and obviously a major disadvantage using other characters which is just absolutely crazy people but before we go any further guys if you do enjoy the video and would like to show you support you can by smashing that like button if you are new around here and enjoy daily Apex Legends videos make sure you subscribe okay so there are eight legends in total at the moment all very very different offering many unique abilities and ways of playing a good thing I have noticed though is all these legends have their own users I mean I mean I obviously like you guys noticed one or two legends being used more than others but still there are benefits of using each and it really does show the mass variety of different legends you see while playing the game we have Bangalore, Bloodhound, Q-Stick, Gibraltar, Lifeline, Mirage, Pathfinder and Wraith now besides the abilities of what these legends offer almost everything else in terms of agility movements be jumping, sliding, climbing and so forth are all identical not one single legend is faster or can move quicker than any other legend besides when using a certain ability which buffs agility. Respawn have made this perfectly clear but thanks to a fellow legend who goes by the name of Sukey Spite who has spent a lot of time researching the in-game legend hitboxes we can actually see there are major major advantages in using certain legends over others again full credit for the research and this must go to Sukey Spite whose youtube channel can be found linked within the video description you'd think each legend obviously being of a different size there would be a certain gray area in the game which was basically the same for every single character and if this basic gray area hitbox was the same for all legends certain legends wouldn't have this crazy disadvantage we are seeing in his video he discussed this hard work he took him in actually calculating legend hitboxes and trust me guys it took many many hours to do so so what we have learned hitboxes are different and actually majorly different when trying to land shots meaning you have an advantage in using certain legends in terms of evading shots and making it much harder for other players to land shots on you on the screen now we can see the silhouettes of each legend again it's put together by Sukey Spite credit to him but we can see each legend and it's crazy to think that there are such advantages and disadvantages in using them from right to left start in Gibraltar this fellow has the biggest structure in the game at the moment meaning his hitbox is by far the biggest moving left we see slightly shrink with acoustic then pathfinder then bungalow then mirage the blood hand and lifeline and then finally rave who has the smallest hitbox by a mile now when we compare rave to Gibraltar we see there's almost a 100% increase in the hitbox between them which is just absolutely crazy man and folks out there using Gibraltar it means you're at a major disadvantage in gunfights and when you think about weapons with bullet spread such as shotguns you will be much much easier to hit have you ever run into a room as a Gibraltar and felt that you've been one shot when you really shouldn't have been one shot it's probably because you're the size of a door and it kind of makes sense or while you're rave like me who mains rave i am such a slippery bastard and a lot of my teammates who watch me tell me this that it seems as though i am super hard to hit i'm like a snake slithering in and out of buildings up and down roofs and shit and it makes sense because rave has the smallest hitbox in the game have you ever realised how hard is it hitting a rave running across the screen at a certain distance i mean it kind of makes sense now and like i said when one target is twice as big as the smallest target it means if you are using this target who's twice as big you are much easier to hit at a distance and land shots on now respawn are aware of this and this issue and to fix it they will have to change many fundamentals but like i said earlier maybe make a gray area in which is the exact same for all legends demonstrated on screen now this would mean those legends such as rave her hitbox will become larger even though the legend herself will stay the same size it will mean that you'll be getting shots off on her which don't even seem to be hitting her but would also mean lowering your broader hitbox meaning even when it seems like you're hitting shots they don't register i mean it's crazy and it will be hard work in balancing this out by respawn but that's even if they plan to do so but this news is picking up steam and i'm already seeing many folks talk about this and making it into an issue which needs addressing them to be honest it probably does it is an issue if you think about it as well it will mean many people will put up using certain legends and i'm pretty sure respawn do not watch this so what's the simple fix well guys i don't really have one they can make every character the exact same size which would look absolutely stupid and just ain't gonna happen but they can like i mentioned create like a gray area for all legends which i think might be what happens or they can just leave it as it is for now but all i know is for sure guys i'm glad i made rave and all you Gibraltar acoustic and pathfinder legends out there well although it isn't a massive disadvantage in terms of being completely broke when a game gets as competitive as apex legends is becoming a disadvantage is a disadvantage and they are definitely in place right here with the size of these hitboxes like i said Gibraltar is double the size of rave switches just absolutely crazy when you think about it so we will see what respawns say on this matter and if any new information drops on this i will have you covered right here on my channel but
