Deathshinger should have a faster projectile speed.
it’s totally debatable but I feel like there is no reason to play him over huntress since the harpoon is not consistent enough for the little hitbox it has. Imo if you have clear sight and the abbility to aim well and keep track of survivors with the iron sights you shoulld be able to get the hit when you pull the triger (just like in every FPS shooter).
But right now it’s not the case. The travel time of the projectile feels way too slow to confirm a hits like that and it’s really easy to avoid. Trying to predict survivor movement is the desk of huntress. Death slinger on the other hand has a limited range and landed hits often does nothing. Because of that, I don’t think he should bother with predicting movement on top of this. If you shoot when you have them on sight, that should be a hit all the time.

I feel like he should be able to hit you over a pallet when you get a shot in. Huntress is able to throw over the pallet. Why not deathslinger? The animation should also be him using his spear so it doesn't look clunky. Same goes for when he hits you over a window after a shot. It looks so weird.

Because survivors need counterplay. If you can just hit through windows (which he can already) where's the counterplay when you drop a pallet?
It's not balanced, the survivor sacrifices the pallet for the security of not being hit over it.

Deathslinger can quick shoot, Huntress can not.

It's already a fast projectile and you have to lead your shots with the redeemer like a Sniper in Battlefield.

I think his projectile works as its supposed to. People who can quick scope are the most deadly because the shot is nearly instantaneous. People who aim down sites might as well go play Huntress. Like any other FPS, get better at the quick scope. Its easier, since you don't have the unreliability of bloom to deal with. LOL

Maybe but it’s not much of a forgiving or high rewarding ability regardless. The spear is just as fast as a fully charged huntress throw (40m/second). I’m just saying it should be a little bit faster. It could also give you a reason to go for long range (max 18m) shots.
