frareanselm.1925 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I see in the benchmarks that some classes make good dps in large hitboxes and others are better in small, but what does mean the hitbox? My personal idea is that a large hitbox may be like the wells of a necromancer, or the storms of elementalists that have a big area of damage and can hit multiple mobs, while small hitbox may be damaging a single target like a elite boss? I'm a wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcaniaxs.4519 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Probably large hitbox means boss with massive health pool and small means the opposite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayrilana.1396 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 It has nothing to do with the HP pool. https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Hitbox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a wrong? Ayrilana linked the wiki. A simplifying example, Ele Meteor Shower skill. The skill has a large AOE where meteors hit randomly. If you are The larger the hit box, the more area the enemy covers, the more likely they are to be hit by a meteor. The less, the less. As a result, the larger the hitbox the more damage the boss typically takes, from builds with AOE attacks that does variable damage in an area.

TheNecrosanct.4028 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 It's simple. Click on any enemy in the game. That red circle you see around them on the ground, that's the hitbox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
