One player raised up the issue and wrote, And Wolverine has to be so close to you that he leaps over the head of anyone not a Vanguard? Lots of wonky hit boxes in the game.Wolverines Feral Leap ability lets him close in on enemies and shred them with quick slashing claw strikes and also has the ability to carry enemies to another position. While the ability itself promises massive damage, the hitbox using that is believed to work differently than other hero hitboxes.To best explain the situation, an experienced Wolverine player said, Wolverines especially funny because he has a hitbox around and behind him, meaning if you stand next to somebody and leap you grab them, but actually aiming your crosshair at somebody dead-on will miss.Adding on to that comment, another player advised, You can pin someone that is right behind you (180 degree) with wolverine. Its a bit different. Wolverine leap is not a dash, its a proximity check link with CC and displacement.While Wolverine is one of the most debatable characters in the game, whether its his boosted health or damage multiplier, if youre on the opposing end of the hero and want a counter, weve got the perfect Marvel Rivals guide for you right here.Marvel RivalsPlatform(s):macOS, PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series XGenre(s):Fighting, ShooterRelated TopicsMarvel Rivals Subscribe to our newsletters!By subscribing, you agree to our Privacy Policy and may receive occasional deal communications; you can unsubscribe anytime.Share
