About The Skulk Bite Cone

<div class="IPBDescription">Just a question.</div> I've noticed with skulks that if a marine is standing still u can bite left or right of him by a fair amount and still hit.
I've also noticed that if the marine is moving often the bite doesn't work if your crosshair is directly on them. (possibly due to hitbox lag but it happens in lan games aswell) So what i want to know is, how big is the skulks bite cone?
If your going to answer make sure compare it to something instead of saying "small", "big", "huge" etc.

    Hmmm, you should try to be as accurate as posible at all times.

    A good way of testing the cone for the skulk is to find an observatory and practise biting that.

    Ive found you have to be alot more accurate with the bite than you might think. And about the bite not working when hes moving, thats probably more a registery isue or some random bug, cus I cant say Ive ever really had the problem.

    I don't know the answer, but I imagine the best way of answering it would be to state the number of degrees around the skulk that can be bit. Also, I wanted to point out that this shows that Public Beta Discussion is not just another I&S, since a topic like this would never belong in I&S.
