Huntress Challenge Trouble

Hey all,

I'm now working on a challenge in tome three called Savagery. I have to hit survivors successfully 15 times with a hatchet. Honestly, I'm not very good at Huntress. I have downloaded a crosshair app to help make aiming her hatchets a little easier. What are the best perks, add-ons, maps and strategies for completing this challenge?

Thanks!

    * Get up close and personal on survivors before throwing the hatchets. *

    Don’t try and trace a zig zagging survivor, hold your crosshair still and throw when they cross it.

    My favorite addon combo is double hatchet throw cooldown.

    Perks, I usually run all aura with one regression park.

    Map - she can perform well on many maps honestly.

    Oh and to add on, I'm playing on PC, but using a controller.

    HugTech pretty much covered everything you need to know. For add ons, you could throw an infantry belt on if you want more hatchets. Could also use Iron Maiden for faster reloads. Most imprtant thing is the 'don't chase zig zaggers' part. This isn't an fps...let them come to your aim. Most people I know don't like crosshair apps. They seem to do more harm than good. Once you get a feel for them, it's easier without it. I'm a PS player...controller is fine.

    For tracking and aiming at survivors who are zig zagging, I find it easier on controller to strafe more than look side to side but this may depend on your sensitivity options.

    Edit. You also dont always have to fully charge your hatchet it will fly farther and faster but with less arc.

    If you run a build that forces predropping pallets like enduring spirit fury, you can respect pallets and often get an easy hit.

    If they have an item in hand it disapppears when they commit to a vault, so you can also get an easy hit at windows and pallets that way while they are locked in the vault animation.

    Hey all,

    Just wanted to report back. I bought myself a budget gaming mouse (Logitech G305), and currently, resin printing a modded shell to reduce the weight. After a game or two of practice with the mouse on Huntress, I was able to go from not hitting people ever to being able to hit them. With the help of the crosshairs application, I could complete the challenge.

    Thanks for everyone's help!
