Huntress add-on rework ideas/changes from a huntress main
Hello all! If you haven't seen any of my posts I'm a rank one huntress with a little over 3k hours in the game. Devs have announced various add on changes and reworks for killers in the future and huntress was on that list. I'm here to provide insight and ideas/opinions.
Let's address the elephant in the room. Iri head. I had two ideas for iri head to make it more balanced and both have been floating around the community for a while. Change the wording from "reduces maximum hatchets by 4" to "reduces maximum hatchets to one" That way addons like infantry belt would be trumped by they addon and be ineffective. Or Add a range requirement. Let's say 32 meters as an example. That way you are rewarded for accurate hatchets and can't insta down at point blank range. Just an idea.
LEAVE MY HAFT ADD-ONS AND MY INFANTRY BELT/LEATHER LOOP ALONE. 😊
I personally don't care if they change the hatchet addons.
Remove the blindness addon there's no point for it to exist. Either that or increase it's rarity and duration ALOT. I can't think of any reason someone being blind for 30 seconds (I think?) Would be useful. Especially since my chases last about 10-20 seconds on average. Increase the time to like 120 seconds and increase the rarity then maybe it could have some use but other than that scrap and replace it. Same with the hindered hatchets. They are literally useless change them or toss em.
Wind up addons can stay unchanged. Her glowing concoction can stay her exhaustion hatchets can stay.
Since they want to bring every killer to the same standard with two iri addons here's my idea for another one:
Hollowed Haft
Ultra rare
The haft is crafted to be lightweight and built for speed.
Significantly increases hatchet wind up speed (20%) and moderately increases hatchet travel speed (10%)(As a side effect makes hatchets have less drop than normal)
Let me know what you guys think about this one I think it would be very strong for skilled huntresses and promotes a fast paced play style which is how I love to play huntress.
Also a common addon that shows the direction and arc of hatchets should exist. There's one for nurse and blight there's no reason she can't have one too.

Just get use to playing her with nothing as every addon pass has resulted in useless or meme addons.

I normally don't use addons but on occasion I do to shake things up a little just like nurse I normally run just her recharge add-ons but occasionally I try to more niche addons to shake it up a little. I just want addons that actually do something

Doctor and leatherface would like a word with you!
in all seriousness yes I agree we got some bad addons but it was only on one killer and that was nurse. Billy got some questionable addons but there actually useful

Blindness is actually very nice for slugging. Duration needs a buff but that's about it.

It's blindness to the person hit not the other survivors. Its awful unless it's duration is increased. OoO is powerful against huntress because you can see where she's aiming and avoid getting sniped. You can see her from pretty close too due to her small terror radius. So if the timer was increased it at least has a use. It would be the same as freddy's blindness snares.

I would definetely say that her exhaustion addons need to be changed.
They were designed in a time where exhaustion used to recover while running.They are outdated

I wouldn't mind them getting changed. I never use them anyway because deadhard players are predictable. Not at range but in 1 on 1 chases. Sure you'll get missed snipes because of deadhard but that's not where you get a majority of your hits.

Blindness is pretty strong; it's just you (ironically) don't see it's benefits usually.
It's more of when that survivor runs into a fellow survivor on a gen, when they don't see the other person you slugged on the ground who is 99'd so they can't pick him up and bounce, when the person with object of obsession now only benefits you for 30 seconds if they lose you suddenly, etc.... It has a ton of niche uses that add up but are hard to notice in game from the killers perspective.
I would like to see it have a 60 second long duration though, even if it became a rarer addon. Enough time to linger.

Yeah I agree with that
