Huntress class is weak. Geonor is unbeatable.

I was playing Huntress in what I read to be the intended way: parry, kickback for frenzy charge, throw an empowered spear.

This worked great all the way through Count Geonor, but as soon as he became Geonor the Madwolf, he stopped doing moves I could parry. This caused the dangerous part of the fight to last much longer. I eventually farmed for a couple extra levels and rapid assault, and I still had a rough and prolonged fight, because my setup was so reliant on parry for damage and I hadn't excess skill gems to spend on a proper pivot to bleed.

It might have helped me if I'd realized that explosive spear was a detonator I could have used to pop my storm lances. The tutorial video uses Thunderous Leap.

I've seen the news post saying there's going to be a cull for frenzy charge move. I guess it might be possible to get some culls out of the poem phase, but otherwise it won't save a parry player from the Madwolf.
