The Hypno-hunter is a Backup weapon introduced in the 24.4.0 update.
Description
Hypno-Hunter is a Mythical backup weapon that deals 111 damage and has an average firing rate. It also possesses several attributes that aid in combat with others. It always takes 2-3 shots to kill.
Appearance
Hypno-Hunter is more likely a revolver pistol, which contains 10 bullets. There's a vortex on the top of the sights, and ghost fire blasts out from the barrel. Under the muzzle, there's a zipper as decoration.
When reloading, it will reload like any other revolver, by removing the empty bullets and replacing them with another nest of ammo.
Performance
It gets 2 primary attributes: MoreDamageToTheCurser 
, and the HologramWhenReload 
- Its ability increased its continuous damage. It will often take only 2 shots for a kill because the curse will provide a single 1.4x damage multiplier. What's more, its multiplier will be increased to 1.96x when a headshot occurs.
- ability will provide a chance to confuse enemies, then makes them harder to find you
It does not experience any delays in receiving or outputting, which means it will be an excellent fit for fast switching
Overall, Hypno-Hunter has good ability for both stand-alone use and 3catspam. It will be suitable for most players to use.
Strategy
Basic GamePlay
There's no specific way to use Hypno-Hunter, as there are few visible disadvantages for this weapon.
Some weapons like Ultimatum and ACR are limited by their normal switch attribute and long delay, but their damage is very high. Try switching them with Hypno-Hunter to achieve a 1-2 shot kill. This will showcase Hypno-Hunter's switching ability mostly.
Tips
- You could start reloading, put down the hologram, then fast switch to other weapons and then switch back, shoot, and repeat. This will provide you several holograms instead of only one.
- The curse caused by the Hypno-Hunter is not applicable to all weapons with this ability, but only to the Hypno-Hunter itself. (This tip is also suitable for other weapon with this attribute like Demon Catcher)
Counters
- Use weapons with strong debuffs like
,
,
to make users of Hypno-Hunter less dangerous - Most enemies won't stay at a constant position and wait to be killed, so don't aim for the stationary hologram.
Recommended Maps
As for its great long-range combat attribute, it's recommended for all maps
Equipment Setups
For 3catspams: any other weapons with a long delay and average switch attribute (receive delay and output delay) to maximize the advantage of Hypno-Hunters.
For stand-alone use: upgrade your Drum Magazine module for longer endurance (by the way, practice more on aiming).
