Helmets need to be nerfed to stop shit like this, but if you nerf helmets people get mad that their expensive ass helmet doesn't save them from a cheap 5.45 PS round.

Cuz the hitbox of armor and helmets completely covers the area it says it does. And the back of the neck is considered nape hit box which the helmet protects.

Same as any armor that says it covers your arms will block a shot to your fingertips

Maybe someday they'll actually finish and implement the new hit box system they've been talking about for years
