Huntress just bad?

[Vampyr]

Is it just me or do the huntress skills feel not smooth at all kind of clunky and not at all what you would imagine a huntress be like. This doesnt feel even in the same vein as a ranger and I understand they are different classes but if they are in the same "archetype" why doesnt the huntress feel better but way worst? Again is this just me or....

Yeah It sucks for me also I stopped using it. Seems regular mobs die to fast for it to matter and it does to little damage on bosses to matter.

The problem is most people rely too much on parry+disengage. I don't even use it.

It's not that they have to rely on it, it's how the character is built and shoehorning a class into such a limited playstyle sucks. With all the bonus damage coming from expending frenzy charges...it's not great, especially since getting a frenzy charge feels like rng when the auto aim completely misses parries and everything

How can it be "shoehorned" if you can don't use it. It more of stupid dogma some people have that huntress must do this certain combo or must equip a spear. You can even don't equip the buckler and use nothing and later get that dance with death notable for uber skill speed.

As for mercenary comment, your huntress can use a crossbow too, while having the same or even better experience.

Here's a build tip: Remember your are not just stuck to martial weapon skills, but spells are part of your arsenal... Power overwhelming.

The damage and abilities were not properly tested, the class is completely underpowered ,The ability Spearfield is completely useless against bosses, bosses that don't move get no damage from the explosions, the same for bosses with ranged attacks

Honestly warrior felt more satisfying than huntress. And I hated playing warrior.

I feel like she needs more range on her jumps into combat. They only travel a short distance and than doing a back flip out of combat does double the range. Just give me equal range into combat as escaping and I think it will be improved.

The whirlwind and tornado combo is nice but having to cast whirlwind 3 times to get the desired affect and it having a weird pause between casts makes it clunky. Not to mention you get hammered trying to cast it 2 more times after the initial cast that it isn't worth taking if you are close to mid-range. Really want Druid though since seeing the tornado. :(

If she could get into combat and back out quickly and there wasn't such a pause between certain skills she could be fun but currently it feels unsatisfying and not as smooth as I would like. Not even grabbing the deal melee damage increases ranged damage and vise versa because I am either building only range or only melee. The two combined don't flow smoothly right now.

Its my favourite class so far. I love doing the combo's honestly. Thought i would hate the class. i really wanted the druid originally
