Hunter
Hunter Single.png
Overview

Homeworld:

Earth

 
"Hunters once prowled the wilderness and wastelands, taking big risks for even bigger rewards. You're no outlaw – at least not any more – but making your own luck has always meant bending the rules. Your unique brand of daring and ingenuity is needed now more than ever."
— Class description

The Hunter is a type of Guardian who uses stealth and long ranged weapons to kill their enemies.[1] Through manipulation of the Traveler's energies, Hunters learned how to survive in the wild. Some fear them as being dangerous, but their bravery has led to many discoveries dating back to the Golden Age.[2]

Abilities

Hunters are focused on damage dealing from short and medium range.[3]

All Guardians have certain abilities, some of which are granted by the Traveler, others which may appear more mundane in nature. All Guardians have a double jump ability and a "grenade-type" ability whose effects vary by class.[4][5] All these abilities with the exception of the double jump can be upgraded over time and can be used in competitive PvP.[6][7]
