The 'Huntsman' is a bit of a misnomer, as it's traditionally a bane that goes with the arachnos soldier pool/training and gadgets rather than focusing on the mace-centric bane playstyle. The trick here is that you can just as easily be a crab that does the same. All in all, I'd say the most effective soldiers never forget their starting pools. Some of the best powers are in there.

Diverisity in powers. Not only are archetypes a distinct play experience, powersets are. Heck, powerset combos. Not only does my dominator play totally different than my tank, it plays different from my other dominators. My Kin/psi plays different than my kin/elec. You can choose just about any new combo and have a very different approach to the same missions.

Customizability. Yes, you still glow yellow with hasten, and APP lightning is stuck at indigo-ish, but just about every other detail can be fine-tuned to be your own. With some creativity, you can and will stick out in a crowd as your own cool character.

Teaming! What is your friend bringing? It really doesn't matter! Just jumble together friends from different levels, archetypes, and powersets and you'll be hard pressed to find a group that just can't work. Everybody can have a good time without worries of having the right build, selections, etc.

The ability to do crazy things! I like popping a bunch of purples and running out to herd multiple groups on a squishy, only to fulcrum shift and nuke 'em all off to see St. peter. Or crank the enemies up to x8 solo only to decimate them with a shielded robot army. Or diving into a mob on a /dark brute only to stupify/terrify them, coming back from the brink of death when ever I want. You can go nuts in this game and succeed by doing so.

Siphon Power: a well-built kineticist can debuff an AV's damage by up to 75%, yet many suggest never slotting this sucker. Note to players: get this, slot for acc/recharge, spam it on AV's. Your team will take way less damage. (And a boost team damage too- don't forget this boosts around you, so it's good for buffing the ranged allies from safety.)

Siphon speed: it's an unresisted debuff. Again, in an AV/GM fight, this makes a lot of difference.

Soul transfer: a stun, heal, and endurance recovery tool...when your dark regeneration isn't up yet and you go down, this let's you get up in safety asap.

Assault: a damage boost to the whole team. I know, some swear by it. Too few take it. If you team a lot, and have a spare power, this is a great choice. If you have a teamful of assaults running, it's insane.

Mass hypnosis: Many skip this beauty in mind control. No aggro, long duration, perfect for delaying some additional foes whil you deal with others. Anytime you have a team that encounters a double spawn or ambush, this helps a lot.

Telekinesis: It's difficult to use, except in one instance: Archvillains. they generally can't be moved, so it's a ticking hold to help layer holds to keep them under when the triangles drop, or with multiple dominations up, to hold over the AV triangles.
