Version

Hunter is the bow-and-arrow specialisation of the Bowman branch, advancing from Bowman at level 30. Hunters commit to Bows as their permanent weapon type (the parallel Crossbowman class commits to Crossbows) and pick up the signature Arrow Bomb active that defines the Hunter playstyle: a single arrow that explodes on impact, dealing area damage to the target and any nearby monsters while stunning the primary target.

Advancement

Hunter is a 2nd-job class advancing from Bowman. The advancement quest unlocks at level 30 and is initiated at Athena Pierce's school in Henesys. The Bowman Job Instructor on The Road to the Dungeon conducts the advancement test.

Requirements to become a Hunter:

  • Level 30 or higher
  • Job: Bowman
  • The bowman 2nd-job advancement quest completed, with the Hunter path chosen (the parallel choice is Crossbowman)

There is no 3rd job advancement in Classic World yet.

Equipment

Hunters wield Bows exclusively (the matched Crossbowman class wields crossbows), and require Arrows equipped in the off-hand slot as consumable ammunition. Armor is the bowman line: leather and reinforced leather with DEX scaling.
