hmmm 2 shots in a row last night that looked to be perfect and did not register. have run this many many times in the past but it's been several months, have they changed how precise you must be with lining up and/or timing the shot?

Highly possible lag ate it. The beast was gorging on spells and melee attacks last night in our Shroud run....Maybe it wanted a midnight Cannon Blast snack? :eek:

Here's some historical info that might be useful:
The collision region for the Warforged Titan is a cylinder centered between his feet. When he falls down, the cylinder remains in the same place. When the Titan raid was originally released, that cylinder was so skinny that when he was down, any laser hits on his body would actually MISS striking him. The only way you could hit him is to aim between his legs, where not even one polygon of his structure actually was.
A patch expanded that area so it covered the whole extent he could reach when prone, which meant it was also possible to damage him by missing in the other direction. Basically anywhere in the same square would work.
Maybe they secretly reduced the collision cylinder. So, if you continue to have trouble, be sure you're aiming for his feet and not his chest.

Yes i have always aimed at the circular base or "target" mark which appears on the floor when he's targetted, which stays with the feet when he falls, always with great success. Just for some reason last night and last night only on two consecutive shots this completely missed for some reason. The mark may have been "slightly" off the red mark on the floor when he was dropped, but it was very close, close enough to have always worked in the past, which is what prompted me to ask if they have changed this so his base must be "right on" the spot rather than just very close.
Thanks for replies
