Hello, I primarily use daggers in Darktide and have been experiencing this issue for a while now.
Bosses… especially Chaos Spawn and Plague Ogryn have collision boxes that are far too large, making it impossible to get close enough to attack. Compounding this is the dagger’s extremely short range, which frequently results in attacks hitting nothing but air.
If you watch the attached video, you’ll see that even with stealth activated,
the second heavy attack doesn’t land when the boss is crouching forward…
I understand that the server’s calculation method might make the dagger’s high attack speed appear slower,
but not being able to hit even when attacking from behind the boss seems pretty critical..
At the end of the video, you can also see that even when a stealth attack hits, the damage doesn’t register due to a server issue…
