Grenade Gauntlet Still Not Ignoring Hitzone Modifier

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Bugs

Issue Type (Required):

Weapons

Issue Description (Required):

My understanding of the change in the patch Nightmares & Visions to Grenade Gauntlet of ignore hitzone modifier is set to true means that hitting arms and legs should deal the same damage as hitting a torso (i.e. hitzones are effectively being ignored). The current damage difference is the same as previously (e.g. reaper leg is roughly half the torso).

Am I misunderstanding the intended effect of this change?

Steps to Reproduce (Required):

  1. Enter Psykanium as Ogryn with Grenade Gauntlet
  2. Shoot torso then limb on Reaper. Can get near 1200 dmg torso, then near 600 damage leg.

The damage number is the sum of the projectile impact + explosion; since the explosion happens after and always hits center of mass, the armor type displayed above the damage may not be the one hit by the projectile.

Bulwarks and Reapers have a lot of different armor types on their body, so it can happen easily.

Could you try to check with enemies with a single armor type over all their body, like Dreg Ragers or Crushers?

Yep, same happens with Crushers. For the Reaper, psykanium reported it was unyielding type each time as well.
