Auto-Aim (Controller) Can't Hit Larger Enemies in Certain Enemy Positions

Hey GGG!

I've noticed through my playthroughs that larger enemies can put themselves in positions where auto-aim can't hit them.

Enemies such as Xyclucian, the second phase of Geonor, Zalmarath, Tor Gul, have actions/animations where they roar, scream, stand on their hind legs, among other things. Some of these animations, or part of them, are where the user can't hit the enemy when using auto-aim.

So, let's say both the large enemy and the user are stationary in their own locations for a decent amount of time. The user is casting away (let's say Frost Bolt), hitting the enemy. Then the enemy stands on its hind legs. Though the enemy is still "in the same spot", part of the body of the enemy is now higher, or more on one side (the hind legs), than the other. But Frost Bolt keeps casting as if the enemy was still on all four legs and "in the centre" of where the enemy was, and Frost Bolt is actually missing the enemy. It's like auto-aim doesn't follow the enemy's "hit-box" when the beginning and end of the animation are at the same location, but the middle is not.


I'm not sure if the following are separate issues or related, so I'll post them here just in case:

Zicoatl (my favourite boss fight) is a big wide boss. Sometimes, for some reason, auto-aim aims at the side of the boss instead of the centre. And sometimes, while aiming and "hitting" the side of the boss (while we're directly facing it), it doesn't take damage, though the skill (Frost Bolt) is clearly going through the boss.

Zalmarath has the same issue, where damage from minions, curses, or Frost Bolt just disappears. The boss doesn't get hit. (Though, I can't tie this to any specific action or cause.) The unique issue with Zalmarath is that out of nowhere, the boss simply stops taking damage. Sometimes the glitch lasts for seconds, sometimes until the end of the fight (when the user quits to restart) (https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3625664, https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3750003). This has been around since beta's launch.

Anyway, I hope this helps. Please let me know if you need anything from me. I'll help how I can.
