Huntress is actually rather weak damage-wise compared to the other two ranged DPS classes. She just seems to do more damage because her damage is easy to apply. Her AoE is mediocre, her attack speed is plain awful early on, she doesn't synergize as well with on hit items as the other two, her base health is laughably bad and her escape mechanism is "just okay".

Honestly if she didn't have her kiting trait she would be garbage. She's a good character to learn how to space yourself with but beyond that, the commando outclasses her in every way once you get good at the game and dont need training wheels. What really makes the commando shine is his ability to manually create a gap between him and the enemy and maintain that gap with proper timing. That, and he scales ridiculously with on hit items
