Hi Kabam! I just R3 Hood and now I demand a fix! Please call this bug out and fix. I love the revamp so no need to send me a rank down gem but please fix his invisibility mechanic. At 100% miss he gets hit all the time! With the kingpin synergy he gets 140% miss but gets hit after the 1st miss all the time. I’ll keep on going week after week with videos until this gets addressed. Ty!! 🤩😘
I've been sitting on a mystic t5cc and r2 awakened hood for months. It's a real shame because I love his playstyle and kit, but the only thing holding me back is that his miss doesn't work correctly. Sadly, with how many bugs that haven't been fixed and the amount of new bugs that come with every update, I have a feeling he will stay at rank 2 for a long time.
I have him at 6s R3, awakened. Being hit at 100% invisibility accuracy has been happening these days.
Yeah I came in to add my voice. Been happening for a good couple weeks. Even using ghost synergy with kingpin and being invisible at the start I can't count on any but the first hit missing.
Still nothing from Kabam. If you haven’t been able to solve the problem that’s one thing. But to not communicate at all about it. No excuse for that. @Kabam Miike@Kabam Zibiit
I’ve been using Hood in my Map 8 AQ team and the unreliability of his invisibility is a huge problem that’s eating through my potions. I’ll go to detonate the hex bullets with a heavy when I should phase an attack and just get clocked instead.
I don’t know if it’s related, but Miles’s miss mechanic also results in unblockable hits landing when they shouldn’t at times. I only mention this in case the issues are related.

Ha, I'd noticed this a few times on the 7.1.2 path with unblockable specials; he'll often get hit with say Janes' second slower shock projectile on sp1 and occasionally her first hammer swing on sp2. Just wrote it off as "meh, another champ ability designed not to work consistently" and put him away. Don't think I'll try to rely on miles unblockable special miss again.
On topic, also have a duped r2 Hood I'd like to use more, with kingpin and his miss mechanic does not work. Why the continued silence?
This comment will get deleted, but.... If the bug caused say 5 hits to miss, it would get fixed tomorrow.
Also, you have to dash back twice to start the invisibility circle, that's super annoying.
Kabam support told me that it's part of the control issues. I personally don't think it's so, and checked with them, but they insisted.
And to be clear, dashing back isn't the bug this thread is upset about. I don't want the conversation to lose track of what we want fixed here.
They all are major issues/bugs, and we can agree that Hood needs fixing in general. Kabam knows that but obviously it's not top priority. Just like the NF one.
Hood’s invisibility is still bugged. In this clip, he gets hit by the second attack, which he should have phased, and phased the third. In earlier testing before I started recording, Hood phased the first hit and then ate the other four hits of a combo. In other attempts to recreate it, the ability worked exactly as intended. I cannot see rhyme or reason to it at this point.
This is the weekly sigil Goldpool quest. Only synergy active is Mojo. Would love to see this fixed (also, making his dash back to hold block more reliable, but this one would be my priority).
This is video clearly demonstrates the problem. He is unusable unless a champ is buff heavy because you cannot reliably load bullets. It would be less of a problem if not for that annoying part of his kit (needing bullets).

I don’t actually use the invisibility for the bullets, I typically pair him with Mojo or Mole Man for the synergy to bypass that problem.
More importantly, however, I use the phasing to detonate hex bullets with the heavy attack. With two reliable misses, that gives plenty of time to do that as the AI rushes in on me. With only one, I frequently end up getting slapped. And in AQ Map 8, that can mean a lot of items spent to get back into fighting shape.
Here’s another gif of Hood’s invisibility failing. This time against AW Boss Magneto. I had no synergies active on Hood (teammates were Nimrod and Peni Parker). He phases the heavy hit, punches in to counter, and eats an attack that he should have phased.
Hood is such a good champion now, I ended up winning this fight. But I just want him to work the way he is intended.
I didn't touch him for a while, but tested him again today. At first I thought it was fixed but once in a while I still get hit on a second hit when you g invisible
yeah it still keeps happening and we dont have any replies from kabam. its hard to get more persistent charges for him since miss was alreay not giving much and now we can only miss once
Yes, I see there hasn't been a response since September. I recently pulled a mystic 1-2 rank up for my 6* and he's a fun champion, so I would love to bring him up if he's back to normal.
Still a problem for me. I still use Hood occasionally, just without any expectation that he can make a second hit miss. It makes it harder to build up his bullet charges unless I’m fighting someone with a large number of buffs.
It’s kind of how I used to play with him before his update, but with more big-damage heavy attacks (yay) and frustration as I watch his bullet count drop and not get built back up (boo).
They should at least update his description to say that you get 120% chance for the first hit to miss, and then after that … no promises.

It's been 3 months and no explanations or news on this issue at all.
