Huntress new ability

Pressing the Active Ability Button will cause Huntress to pull up a hatchet with special properties:

-This hatchet does not consume from the hatchet pool

-Wind-Up time is halved

-It starts fully charged

-Auras of survivors is shown for 5 seconds

-Using this ability cancels the hatchet throw recovery cooldown

-60 seconds cooldown

This will incentivize cross-map snipes, without having to reload. Will give her a Combo potential due to the faster wind-up and cooldown cancelation. And reloads after every single hook won't be needed as often.

    What is this crazy thing? It would absolutely not promote cross-map snipe. It would be used at loops for easy downs. Very bad idea. Huntress is already strong killer in a fine spot. I don't see any reason to buff (or nerf for that matter) her.

    Huntress doesn't really need a buff - she's fine.

    What you've proposed would make her way more frustrating to go against in a chase rather than incentive cross map hatchets - and would almost turn her back into insta-hatchet Tinkerer Huntress of 2017 every 60 seconds. Also having 5 seconds of Aura reading on every survivor on demand every 60 seconds is exceptionally powerful.

    If a Huntress wants to do cross map snipes - they can do so now with some aura perks and practice. I don't think they need to bake in a core mechanic to encourage people to do so.
