Hunter

Hunter skill allow players to catch various creatures in different areas, each with its unique environment. There are five different methods of hunting: Tracking, Box trapping, Butterfly netting, Bird snaring and Rabbit snaring. Each hunting method requires different tools or equipment, you can buy it from the Hunting expert. Players can drink Hunter potions to buff their hunter level, enabling them to catch creatures which require a higher Hunter level temporarily.

Hunting can be done by setting up a trap in the vicinity of a hunter creature, and when a creature passes through the trap it will be caught. You can then check your trap to gain experience, obtain your loot and your trap. Hunter is capped to the maximum level of 128. Allowing players to catch even higher tier creatures at the fastest rate possible.

The higher the difference between the required Hunter level and your own Hunter level, the bigger your chance on successfully catching a creature will be. The amount of box traps, bird snares or rabbit snares you can set at the same time increases with your Hunter level too. Having more traps at the same time will enable you to catch multiple creatures at once.

You can use the Hunter skill to gain special items, new Range weapons, hunter outfits and unique Pets.
