Not, Corpse. All this time I thought...
I find power scalers and power scaling to be annoying, but I wonder if RWBY needed a type of ranking for certain Huntsman, Huntresses, and Grimm. Especially the Grimm the because ones like the dragon from vol 3 or the Kaiju monster from vol 6 or hell even Salems flying wail seem are no doubt in a different ball park than regular Grimm.
Would the idea help add more of a sense of threat to the Grimm or would it be pointless? What do you guys think?
I see/hear a lot of people saying how mediocre huntsman is, and so I recently revisited the class for fun, and made a build using some things that I don't think I've seen anyone talk about before; I'm curious why people don't run this. I've been playing on Legend, and the build in a nutshell is just essentially an infinite ammo repeater (even on just chest shots) and relative durability.
Here's what I'm using https://www.ranalds.gift/heroes/2/213222/33-1-3-6/58-4-1-6/2-3-5/1-4-2/4-2-3
With a little bit of stacked crit gear, Keep it Coming, and Scrounger on the repeater, you can get on average 300 chest shots before you run out of ammo, and will get 12 shots per reload (since Keep It Coming doesn't take ammo from the barrel). Headshots/Career skill can gain ammo obviously.
Thick Hide feels like it basically just gives (on average) ~35-40% damage reduction at all times since it has no time limit and it feels almost impossible to get down to 2 stacks, making Huntsman feel relatively bulky.
So it seems like a class that just has high damage reduction and can reasonably walk around shooting every elite/special whenever it wants. I play a lot of other classes and I realize it's not quite BW or WHC, but it honestly feels like it's at least as useful as Mercenary to me. Thoughts? Are Scrounger Huntsman builds common and I just haven't happened to see anything on them?
Also if anyone has suggestions on different skills/properties/etc, I'd be interested. I see people use Taste of Victory for example, and I'm curious why.
I honestly forgot it even existed until I saw an earlier post about it. I regularly shop at every store in Whiterun but literally haven't been in this store in years
I was just screwing around earlier and decided to play some careers I never really play.
Slayer, fun but meh (imo)
Handmaiden + shade, just dull (imo)
Pyromancer, no idea what I was doing
But then I got to huntsman, expecting him to be really bad yet was pleasantly surprised. His talents are pretty good, especially for regenerating ammo. Thp on stagger is really good as well with the hammer.
And the bow, oh glorious sigmar the bow. This thing years through pretty much anything if you can hit reliable headshots. Specials? Dead. Elites? Dead. Chaos warriors? Dead. Monsters are slightly harder but it still hits hard
Kerillians bow fires twigs compared to the log this thing fires
So yeah. Huntsman's much better than I thought he'd be. That is all
