🔒 LOCKED: Hitbox Volume, ADS Obstruction, Rarity Tier & Stealth Index
Absolute Zero
- ✓The stark white texture blends well with the snow-capped peaks of Mount Olympus for brief concealment.
- ✓Standard female hitbox maintains parity with other base models.
- ✓The crisp, defined edges prevent visual blurring at extreme distances, aiding identification.
- ✗Absolute Zero's bulky shoulder pads create a 4.7% wider upper torso visual profile, hindering long-range target acquisition.
- ✗The bright #FFFFFF primary color significantly increases visibility against Grim Gate's dark rock formations.
- ✗Its rigid, angular animations for sprinting make pinpointing movement easier for distant opponents.
Best biome: Mount Olympus
Overwatch
- ✓Overwatch's tighter arm geometry yields a 9-pixel narrower ADS gap when using the Nemesis AR, improving sightlines.
- ✓Its muted, dark #36454F color scheme reduces visibility by 2.1x against Lush Lagoon's dense foliage.
- ✓The sleek, form-fitting design presents a perceptually smaller target at long ranges, particularly from a distance of 150 meters or more.
- ✓The minimal extraneous geometry around the head reduces visual clutter, allowing for clearer headshot tracking.
- ✗The generic model provides minimal unique tactical advantages beyond its core slimness.
- ✗Subtle texture variations can sometimes cause visual noise against complex backgrounds like Brawler's Battleground.
- ✗Its common silhouette makes it less intimidating, lacking a psychological edge.
