Location Damage

[Malicious Goo]

Sorry if this topic has already been addressed:

Is there location damage on battlesuits?  Also, do barbs (adv. dragoons) do location damage?  Does a dragoon's pounce do loaction damage?

Every alien has locational damage, AFAIK. Go for the head, nothing less.

I think its the opposite, aliens and bsuits don't have locational damage. Though if you can headshot a dretch you deserve 5x damage lol.

I believe barbs do locational damage but pounce doesn't.

There is location damage on battlesuits

There isnt location damage on aliens

All alien attacks do location damage, although the pounce damage is tempermental at best. Chomp the head off for best results

Wrong, all alien primary attacks do locational damage. I think the advanced goon's barbs are the only secondary attack that do locational damage.

Even if it does, it's not like it matters.

Of course it matters, it's a matter of 4 damage vs 0.5 damage, but if the humans is in a bsuit or armour, your out of luck.

Well apart from the barb and spit the only other secondary attacks arnt really aimed, so I didnt think to include them in my assessment- marauder zap is auto done, and I suppose pounce and trample dont really make sense as aimed attacks either.
