Why is Headhunter still in the game?
" Maybe its more about planification of gear and set up that make those miror tier item interesting... Eternity shroud is a chase that you need to work around to take advantage of its full potential thats what is problematic with hh barely need any kind of work or thinking around it. |

Seems like a lot of people here never played with a headhunter and have wrong impression of it. Not all builds can use it, most builds could be better vs bosses without it. Headhunter is for map clearspeed, not helping much on fights like Sirus - for bosses you could do way better in a gear from selling hh.
Without headhunter everything will be the same, people who kill endgame bosses fast, will still kill those bosses in the same time, because they don't use hh for it. People who don't use hh and don't kill bosses now, will still not be able to kill bosses - because thinking that headhunter will allow you to do some endgame content you otherwise wouldn't is false. If you can't do it now, you will not be able to do it with headhunter aswell. Biggest compliments for my crafted items - "bs, they must have been RMT'ed"
I'm disabled, I have rare case of semperduravera, so I can write things that may look rude, but it is because of disability - I'm forced to tell truth using words you may not like. |

" The thing is: you can get a build that can`t do endgame maps, just give it a HH and suddenly it can do that endgame map now. That does not happen if you swap HH with a mirror tier belt for example. Just look at the base of Headhunter (ignoring it unique factor): 120 hp, +60 dex, +60 str. It`s a pretty solid belt even if we remove it`s unique effect. I could agree with you if HH was like Veil of the Night (your resistances are set to 0, -40% light radius, reflects 100 lightning damage). |

" No :D If someone can't do endgame map without HH, he will not do it with HH because he will not be able to get mods from rare monsters in time anyway. " I would go with 130hp, 3resi,stygian with jewel socketed (corrupted blood immunity, life and some dps boost, onslaught or whatever else you want) and it would give me a lot more for bosses than headhunter. For me Ryslatha's Coil would be insane dps boost, but I don't have it (so I made my build for simulacrum farm).

It is a great chase item. Not really overpowering, IMHO, since it doesn't help kill bosses. It is just great fun to play with. Buy one for yourself quick because after GGG reads this thread they will remove HH drops*. No PoE career can be considered fulfilled and complete if you haven't ever owned one. So get one now while it is relatively affordable. Once it's a legacy item the price is going to explode!

Just kidding, I don't think that GGG will drop HH.
Over 430 threads discussing labyrinth problems with over 1040 posters in support (thread # 1702621) Thank you all! GGG will implement a different method for ascension in PoE2. Retired!
