Description

A Hunter is someone who fights with cunning and guile, they utilize dexterity and speed to sneak up on their opponent or face them head on.

A Hunter is a cunning fighter that can dispatch his opponents before they even see him, or if he so chooses, can meet them face to face.

Hunters are loners in a wild world. They fend for themselves, live by themselves, and their might is matched by none in their forests.

A Hunter is exactly what their namesake implies, they hunt, whether their prey be animal or elf, orc or dragon, they always find it, and they always kill or capture it.

- Bonus Feats: The hunter adds a number of trap-enhancing choices to the ranger's bonus-feat-list.

- Trapfinding A Hunter can use the search skill to locate traps when the task has a Difficulty Class higher than 20. Finding a nonmagical trap has a DC of at least 20, or higher if it is well hidden. Finding a magic trap has a DC of 25 + the level of the spell used to create it. A Hunter can use the Disable Device skill to disarm magic traps. A magic trap generally has a DC of 25 + the level of the spell used to create it.

- Barbed Traps:

Perequisites: Hunter Trapping

Specifics: A quarry who sets of a trap without succeeding the reflex saving throw is now slowed by barbs specifically designed to impair its movement. The slow effect lasts for one round per four hunter levels and is always three rounds minimally. If the target succeeds the reflex throw saving throw the slow effect is still applied but only for two rounds.

Use: Automatic

Entangling Traps:

Perequisites: Hunter Trapping

Specifics: A quarry who sets of a trap without succeeding the reflex saving throw is now entangled. The entanglement lasts for one round per four hunter levels and is always three rounds minimally.

Use: Automatic

Poisoned Traps:

Perequisites: Hunter Trapping

Specifics: You add a poison to your traps. The Poison is applied if the target fails the reflex saving throw. The Poison DC scales to 14, 17 21,24,27 and 30, whenever the reflex saving throw's DC reaches this threshold. The base poison DC is 10. All poisons do constitution damage.

Use: Automatic

Hunter Trapping

Specifics: A hunter can lay down an improvised trap once every turn. A trap does 1d6 piercing damage for every ranger level, with a reflex save to halve the damage. The reflex save is 10, +1 for every five hunter levels, and +1 for every five ranks in the craft trap skill. The number of traps a hunter can have active at the same time is one for every 10 ranger levels. The maximum number is four, the first trap being granted at level one, the second at level 10, and so on. Higher level hunters gain a progressing cooldown reduction and so are able to lay traps more quickly. At levels 6, 10 and 14 ten seconds are deducted. And from 14 onwards the cooldown is reduced by one round for every four levels, finally reaching one round at level 30.

Use: Selected

Extra Favored Enemy

Specifics: You may select an additional Favored Enemy feat at hunter level 4 and 9. These stack with your progression as a ranger.

Use: Selected through conversation

Notes

- Hunter Trapping's cool down reduction is not properly displayed, it starts the timer at 60 seconds only in the end it deducts the reduced cool down. So if you are supposed to have a 10 seconds reduced cool down it will simply be available again once it hits the 10 seconds remaining cool down.

- The traps saving throw DCs are not displayed, however you can look at them by trying to disable your own traps.

- It is also not displayed if enemies fail their saving throws or not, neither for the trap itself nor for the poison they might apply if the Poisoned Traps feat was selected

Class courtesy of Rasael and thorough testing by the Quality Control Team.

Gameplay Notes: fast movement is granted per travel domain feat, so it doesn't stack with Barbarian fast movement.

-A Hunter is someone who fights with cunning and guile, they utilize dexterity and speed to sneak up on their opponent or face them head on. A Hunter is a cunning fighter that can dispatch his opponents before they even see him, or if he so chooses, can meet them face to face. Hunters are loners in a wild world. They fend for themselves, live by themselves, and their might is matched by none in their forests. A Hunter is exactly what their namesake implies, they hunt, whether their prey be animal or elf, orc or dragon, they always find it, and they always kill or capture it.
-A Hunter is at his strongest when he is hidden. Hunters always make sure that they know were you are, but never show themselves in return. Hunters ambush their opponents, moving quickly around them dodging attacks and hitting with deadly accuracy. The Hunter also utilizes quite well, probably even better than the sword, his bow. However Hunters are poor front line combatants. Without the room to move around, and without the space to pull off some heavy ranged hits, the Hunter can be defeated. If you want to kill a Hunter, you must box him in.
+A Hunter is someone who fights with cunning and guile, they utilize dexterity and speed to sneak up on their opponent or face them head on.
-Hunters may travel and fight alone. A Hunter in a group can easily be given away, but a hunter alone, will never be found. It is rare for a Hunter to be found with barbarians or fighters, but it does happen. It is however much more common to find Hunters teaming up with other Hunters when they do choose to travel in groups to go about their business. Some quarries inevitably are too lethal for one hunter to deal with alone.
+A Hunter is a cunning fighter that can dispatch his opponents before they even see him, or if he so chooses, can meet them face to face.
-Hunters are different from Rangers and Barbarians in that they are fully mundane, possessing no magical ability, nor are they necessarily illiterate. Instead, huntsmen often live in frontier regions or areas bordering wild lands. They are accustomed to the hunt as a source of food and living, or for sport and trophies.

-Type of Feat: Class<br />Prerequisites: Hunter 3<br />Specifics: Starting at 3rd level, a hunter has an intuitive sense that alerts him to danger from traps, giving him a +1 bonus on Reflex saves made to avoid traps and a +1 dodge bonus to AC against attacks made by traps. These bonuses rise by +1 every three levels in hunter thereafter (6th, 9th, 12th, 15th, and 18th level).<br />Use: Automatic
+- The traps saving throw DCs are not displayed, however you can look at them by trying to disable your own traps.
+- It is also not displayed if enemies fail their saving throws or not, neither for the trap itself nor for the poison they might apply if the Poisoned Traps feat was selected

Subtract 1 from the damage the hunter takes each time he is dealt damage from a weapon or a natural attack. At 10th level, and every three hunter levels thereafter (14th, 18th, and 22nd level), this damage reduction rises by 1 point. This damage reduction stacks with the damage reduction from Epic Damage Reduction and Greater Resiliency but does not stack with Dwarven Defender or the Barbarian damage reduction.<br />Use: Automatic

-Type of Feat: Class<br />Prerequisites: Hunter 8<br />Specifics: At 8th level, a hunter can no longer be flanked.
