Forced Aim Assist / All shots go center mass

[TheConen]

With the release of the new "Secrets of the Spires DLC / Title Upate 1.2", all my shots against RDA units always go center mass (even if aim next to the target and should miss it). It is impossible to hit any weakpoints with this and it makes the game pretty much unplayable on harder difficulties. I tried disabling aim assist and controller inputs in the settings. I'm playing on PC with Mouse and Keyboard (don't even have a controller connected). Is anyone else experiencing this? Are there any fixes / workarounds?

Gamebreaking bug

I have been enjoying this game so far but after the recent update i can't manege to finish this quest from "The Sky Breaker" DLC. As you can see in the video, whereever i shoot the arrow always flies into the middle of the enemy, which makes the shield-MPAs weakspot unhittable. The arrows always fly into the shield. Due to that i can't beat this section.

Hey Mr_BoBek,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

For absolute clarity, can I check the name of this quest so we can forward this on to our team?

Many thanks

Having the same Issue. All ammuntion types will fly to the center of the enemy.

Hello,
The quests name is "The Bitter End"

I found a workaround. The bug seems to be related to the "Reflex Shot" perk given by the Patient Elder Resin from the Skybreaker DLC. If you have any weapon equipped with this perk (in my case it was the shortbow), unequip it / equip a different weapon without the Reflex Shot perk and restart the game.

Thank you for letting us know, TheConen.

This may be a side-effect of the perk and make it not effective against larger enemies, with specific weak points.

I thought it was just me but even completely disabling aim assist arrows still fly as if aim assist is still on. This has had a huge effect for me on getting clean kills, the arrows just don't go to where I aimed. Really annoying and I have no idea what else to try or do. I don't even use that perk so it must be something else.

Hey Wildcat2704,

Try removing all weapon modifiers and check if that changes the arrow behaviour.
Then re-apply them one by one, testing it every time.

Don't know how you came up with that but it works, thanks. I already finished the dlc with the bug but it was long and painful.

Not spoiling much- part of last mission REQUIRES you to shoot some weak spots and I had to use many bombs and flying out of range of aim assist to shoot them instead.

Not to mention all those defender amps that are impossible to kill with aim assist when every arrow goes to their shield. Again, many bombs and sniping from out of aim assist range.

Hey Jurgen,

Thanks for letting us know.
Sorry to had to deal with the final battle this way, but good to hear it you succeeded anyway.

I'll lock this thread as resolved.
