HH made me quit this season

"Don't use it". How about don't develop rubbish instead. So many builds are reliant on it but it just feels punishing. All I wanted to do was pick up some currency on the ground to be swept away to some random irrelevant monster (this happens EVERY SINGLE RUN). It's obnoxious, irritating, and lazy development.

"It's to mitigate how powerful the belt is". Then make the belt less powerful? While HH is the way it is, many builds will be gimped without it. This is what you call poor balancing.

HH adds to a problem that the game is yet to resolve, clunky gameplay.

I almost broke 400 hours this season. Every time I logged on for the past week, HH has got under my skin so much that I end up just logging off. It's not because I died from HH because I didn't (I'm tanky asf), it's the annoying bs when you want to pick something up, click a chest, or even get moving in 1 direction to be dragged back to some irrelevant monster that popped up out of nowhere.

At the very least, change the shadewalker ability to only teleport to rare monsters. The amount of times I have opened my inventory to take the belt off and put it back on again out of frustration is insane. And again, terrible game design.

Next season, I will make sure any build I follow must be without this terrible belt in hopes it's not a build that under performs. Some balancing is in order, break time is over, get to work.

Build is trash if it require headhunter

get gut, if your build needs hh

you can finish the game without 1 single unique item.

I quit about 10 times this league, HH was not any of the reasons. I kinda like it, I know it's pretty chaotic but that's just cost of it. I actually did manage to quit for real and stay away from the game for almost two weeks now. I come to the forum because I really do care. This game is almost the greatest game ever, but it's a thin line and I hope they can make it less punishing, and a bit more enjoyable. Everything remotely decent for a build has to have a negative downside, just everything robs you of any joy.

no.

i use HH on my druid wolf and my pathfinder. 95 and 91 toons, they are not trash.

my wolf druid make any boss a cocktail in seconds, and i have no issues when HH teleports me.

my path finder kills every thing with 1 or 2 hits, so wgen i teleport, the monster is already dead. i think u r wrong.

I think you need to read what they actually wrote, as you missed the mark massively.

Personally I stopped using headhunter. I made a few threads about the shit that shade and shroud walker put us through, especially when increasing rare monsters in maps, with abyss, that is crazy how many times you will encounter them in just a single map.

Such a boring, stupid and unpleasant experience. Will never use that stupid belt again until they fix it, but I kinda doubt they will. So fuck it.

Wait....Have you tried TAKING OFF THE BELT?

Too much crying about something that has zero impact in the long term.

As people already stated, I don't think there exists a single build that relies on headhunter. HH doesn't have anything build enabling that u can't get from other belts.
The only unique thing is the 60 seconds mod steal and that's as random as it gets, so if u don't want to steal shroud walker, use a different belt.

HH is recommended for most endgame builds, because it has the highest damage potential, but u can play the game just fine without it.

I gotta admit, shroud walker is way more annoying for ranged characters than it is for melees, but that's about it.

have to echo that your build is bad if it requires hh to do damage

(yes i use headhunter xD)
