Why is no one fixing Wesker?

[Hex: Rashomon]

I am tired of throwing pallets and wesker phasing through them. He was supposed to get stunned, but instead, I got grabbed. His hitboxes are ridiculous and you can't even dodge them anymore. Why is no one doing anything about it?

[MartFassage]

He cannot phase through a pallet to grab you, you may just be dropping it too late. Nothing about his kit allows him to negate pallets to that extent, he can either vault over the pallet and receive a little slowdown to his movement speed for a second, or break it.

Some killer players know how to game the distance and reaction time of a survivor to thwack you before the game registers your pallet prompt

[HeHateMe]

Maybe because it's "Seven Minutes is all he can spare to play with you" ?

[Andone]

this is most likely a ping problem, it's rare that you have the same ping as another player, so in the pov he barely got u, in your pov, you dropped it just perfect, in general, play safer to account for ping differences, vault earlier, drop pallets earlier, etc.

It has nothing to do with his intended kit. The reality is that the hitbox of Wesker's power is obscenely broken. Looping him in areas where he has a clear path with his power to a vault is pointless as even if you vault his power will injure you AND suck you back through the vault, making you have to re-vault while now injured. This is common at windows and pallets. His hitbox is also broken in regards to dropping pallets while he is in his power. You are very likely to drop the pallet, miss the stun and yet you will be grabbed AND you will both teleport back onto his side of the pallet. It's ridiculous and it is the reason why he's in the pool with other over-tuned Killers who are able to break the game (like Blight with alchemist ring hitting targets BEHIND them) or outright ignore game mechanics (Nurse). I'm not even going to mention how his power sucks in Survivors even if he missed them.

It is not an intended mechanic and he should be kill switched until he's fixed... but he's so popular that BHVR can't put a stop to that $$$ train. So we'll continue to see broken Wesker in 90% of matches indefinitely.

I don't see anything broken with the killer wesker.

Is this the new "Huntress' hatches are the size of a fridge"? Can't say I /missed/ those

This is my thought as well. I haven't seen this specific interaction in a while and when I did it was in a laggy lobby. Maybe they undid something that was stopping this to fix grabs over windows?

why is no one fixing the singularity he's so irritating to play against

Because he IS fun to play. This is the problem, the devs can't make a decision without making one of the opposing sides angry

This is definitely a your ping issue. I have never had this issue as a survivor main.

Considering it happens to other people just as much I'm going to say doubt. I can also replicate it 100% of the time while playing as Wesker.

[Not A Taco]

Some people are getting offensive, I don't think there is any reason to be. I don't see it often, but there is definitely some bugs/lag that can be pulled off with him. I've hit one with pallet, got challenge credit, and then watched him continue his lunge animation completely through pallet and then carrying me off into a wall.

P2W licensed. It is all you need to know about Wesker.

I have over 2k hours and I stun wesker all the time when he's out of power, but when he's in power and the pallet didn't touch the ground yet, but is already dropped, he grabs me and I'm not the only one, I see it on tiktok multiple times a day from different people
