'''Hunter''' is | [[Category:Second Classes]] | ||
= Hunter = | |||
The '''Hunter''' is the second-class advancement of the [[Archer]], master of traps, the falcon and ranged burst. On Vortex Legends the Hunter is built around a '''three-branch specialization system''': | |||
* '''Trapper''' — zone control and area denial through a deep arsenal of ground traps. | |||
* '''Marksman''' — focused single-target bow damage, built around marking a target. | |||
* '''Beast Master''' — a falcon and a tamed beast companion that fight at the Hunter's side. | |||
The branches are a matter of priority, not a cage: skill points can be spent freely, so hybrid builds remain fully playable. Hunters advance into the [[Sniper]] after second class. | |||
---- | |||
=== | == Specialization branches == | ||
=== Trapper === | |||
The Trapper turns the ground into a minefield of snares, status traps and elemental explosives, excelling at zone control, area denial and shutting down melee and stealth approaches. It is the deepest trap toolkit in the game. | |||

Hunter
The Hunter is the second-class advancement of the Archer, master of traps, the falcon and ranged burst. On Vortex Legends the Hunter is built around a three-branch specialization system:
- Trapper — zone control and area denial through a deep arsenal of ground traps.
- Marksman — focused single-target bow damage, built around marking a target.
- Beast Master — a falcon and a tamed beast companion that fight at the Hunter's side.
The branches are a matter of priority, not a cage: skill points can be spent freely, so hybrid builds remain fully playable. Hunters advance into the Sniper after second class.
Specialization branches
Trapper
The Trapper turns the ground into a minefield of snares, status traps and elemental explosives, excelling at zone control, area denial and shutting down melee and stealth approaches. It is the deepest trap toolkit in the game.

| Target | Ground |
| Max level | 5 |
| SP cost | 12 |
