Contrary to the description on the biki, the EH triggers for every single hitpoint for every bulletimpact or damage reception.
This causes many unnecessary triggers.
A single bullet can cause on the order of 5 or more triggers per hitpoint, as every new impact on the Objects FireGeo LOD can cause a new trigger.
If there is a mismatch between the wiki and the game, it means the wiki is wrong, not the other way around.
Not necessarily true. The wiki could have been right, but some change in development resulted in the handledamage beeing changed (possibly unintentionally) to the state it is now.
Why not change the wiki instead? Because it makes no sense that the handledamage EH triggers for hitpoints that wherent even affected by a damaging event
Usually, almost every hitpoint is affected by damage, even if just a little bit. For example, if you get hit in the chest, residual damage will also be applied to the head and limbs. It's weird but that's how it is.
There is some spilling because of the effect described in this ticket https://feedback.bistudio.com/T120542 under b) that gets magnified when bullet damage is too large. When bullet damage is reduced however it can be mitigated. Both issues should be fixed imo.
