Huntress sucks.

[Tanya Degurechaff]

End of the story, had high hopes.
Her axes are interesting but way too unreliable.
The wind up time to quickly throw one is too long, getting slowed down while aiming is incredible punishing.
Why play huntress if you could play Nurse?

The abilitys revolve around the same thing, Aiming and measuring distance.
But the Nurses ability is way more reliable.

Huntress needs buffs or else she will go down the drain like the doctor did.

Her axes need a faster windup time, no movementspeed slow while charging / aiming OR she needs normal movementspeed like the trapper.

Her inability to close in on targets makes her ability obsolete.
I played with and against her, she cant hit axes at all if you stand near ANY object, the axes suffer from the same thing the Nurse sufferes, they hit everything except the Survivor, if you stand near a tree the axes sometimes go THROUGH a survivor and hit the tree.
Paletts are safe spaces because if you crouch behind them the axes always hit the paletts.
Windows are the only thing she shines, she can preemptively throw a axe and hit you pretty reliable.
But everything she can the Nurse does better.
AND she also has to refill her ammo, on maps like farm it sucks because lockers are placed pretty far away from eechother.

Also you can literally dodge axes by crouching, wait until she throws them, CROUCH gg axe will wiff, because of the super strange arc, haddonfield they get stuck half a meter above the white fences in thin air. like a invisible wall.
Everything the huntress does, the Nurse does better... Why rely on LoS if you can blink through that corner the Survivor just cut?
Why rely on axes that (I ♥♥♥♥ you not) sometimes randomly get stuck ON CORN (i dont know how but they just hang in thin air) when the Nurse can reliable blink on someone.

Her windup time is more punishing than charging a blink.
not even the chainsaw has that much windup for a full charge with almost no payout.

Give her Normal movementspeed OR make her axes way way more reliable or she will be dead and gone very fast.

Sounds like you gave up too fast, that or your aim is the unrelable one here. Maybe doubting yourself?

I'm a Nurse main, we tried the axes out, you can literally stand infront of her behind a white fence, its a cointoss your axes sometimes get stuck MID AIR above the fences.
And its with many objects, these very small piles of junk you can run around but your upper body clearly sticks out?
They are safe, axes always hit those even if thrown above if you throw too high you will wiff.
the axe hit detection is super unreliable.

Half of the community: "Huntress sucks! Not worth playing!"
The other half of the community: "The Huntress is OP! Needs to be nerfed!"

Man, this feels like when the Doc came out all over again. :D Maybe give it a bit of time for people to get used to playing her / playing against her?

[Gengar]

Not sure which huntress you are playing, i find her axes to work pretty well and to be very punishing. Nothing ebtter then chucking an axe at a gen in the distance and getting that luckshot. In tests she is alittle faster then the survs without a speedboost as well. 2 soon to call her op or up if you ask me.

Most players don't even post on forums, where did you get this "half of the community" thing?

I like to believe most players understand that you need more than a couple of hous to say something is good or not. OP and others like them just don't understand that, even with so many hours played.

I'm not sure what's your aim is, I don't even play shooters all that much, but I threw like 20 axes my first game and hit moving 7 survivors and 2 times people who tried to heal others - obviously while standing still (out of missed ones ~6 axes were down against a low wall since I tried to get a pallet looper but couldn't overshoot the low wall, and one axe amusingly went straight through survivor without hitting him when he was in the middle of slow pallet vaulting - I think we both stood there, shocked, for a good amountof time). I'm pretty sure I got most of my downs because of the axes. This wasn't the sharpest lobby ever, but for day 1 it's good enough I bet.

Apart from that, Doctor isn't really down the drain. I say he's a disappointment as a "doctor" - he's okay in the game but feels kinda wrong to play as. My Doc is level 50 with full perks (because I dislike prestiging my killers), goes out to give treatment some lucky party every now and then.

Shes good and she is also FUNNY.. Watch my gameplay with her and you will see it!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhfWrPd4nYY

I do agree that the axe hit boxes should be tweaked because of object collision.

Nurse is for boring fcking suckers like seriously its a no clip no brain killer and Huntress is actually fun.

Well, the people who are posting at least. I'm a Wraith main, after all the cries to nerf the Wraith in-game I'm well aware that the "community" isn't necessarily represented here.

Just because you cant play against her, boring ass.

That is one of the biggest issues, I am not saying her axes are bad, but they are EXTREMELY unreliable, we tried on stationary targets.

Sometimes they go THROUGH people, sometimes they hit at ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up angles.
Small piles of trash are a NIGHTMARE its like axes have half a meter upwards still a collision even if the axe clearly hangs midair.


Also her slowed down speed + long charge on axes is super punishing, while the Nurse gets CLOSER to the target even if she cant hit after the blink, the huntress gets super punished by literally EVERYTHING that has a object/corner.

She just needs tweaking, faster charge + faster uptime on axes and/or normal Killer movementspeed.

She does not NEED to be slower she already has a HUGE humming radius which is punishing enough.

How would that even matter if I couldnt lol
Its just a fact ;)

[Sariell]

Don't play her like the other killers. She is meant to set up ambushes. That is what hunters do.
