I have a question about huntress
So I am a huntress main and just went up against another, pretty good at holding hatchets and very good aim. I decided instead of playing dumb and dodging last second to look back and time my dodge better since they were a bit smarter, I was about a terror radius away and waited for the hatchet but no ding sound for full wind up and reached me in like 1 whole second. as soon as it left her hand it was on me, so i assumed hatchet speed because it wasnt fully charged. How badly does latency affect this sound cue and or hatchet release per person? I've never heard of this and it was also a private profile, like completely private, is it possible that people use speed hacks on hatchets as well or does latency affect this visual tell of hatchet throwing as well as hitboxes and travel time?
It seems like an obvious question but I am not too knowledgeable about connections and servers and such(I am not accusing of hacking but want to expand my knowledge)

Perhaps her addons? Rose Root increases your hatchet speeds by 20%

see thats the thing, no speed add on just exhaust and wind up, but no audio cue and there was an arc to her hatchet to indicate either almost fully charged or fully charged but drop off and from my experience playing huntress is that her hatchets dont move extremely fast quit dodgeable from a distance, but her hatchets are said to move 40 meters per second on the wiki. Therefore technically no one should be able to reaction dodge but plenty do, maybe its latency or false speed?

i noticed very little different in speed if any at all if you release it just before the Ding it takes timing and practice i am also a huntress main with almost 1200 hours

yeah but like I mainly care about the latency part and its effects because this hatchet reached me like instantaneously XD and I have a youtube with a lot of huntress vids if youre willing to give me tips
