The Huntsman is blind but has super hearing. He reacts to footsteps, jumps, voices, and objects by instantly firing his shotgun in that direction. If you’re close, you’re dead. If you’re far, you might survive (barely).

How to Survive the Huntsman:

  • Stay quiet – He won’t attack if he doesn’t hear you.

  • Throw objects – Distract him and make him shoot the wrong way.

  • Dodge his shot – He grunts before firing, so move fast.

  • Bait & run – After he shoots, you have 2 seconds to sprint past.

  • Use stairs – He trips and gets stunned when falling.

How to Kill the Huntsman (Not Recommended):

  • Don’t melee – He turns and shoots faster than you can react.

  • Use grenades, land mines, or a tranq gun.

  • Make him fall down stairs – He takes damage when he hits the ground.

  • Let him kill other enemies – His shotgun hurts everything, not just you.

He’s slow, predictable, and won’t chase you. Stay quiet, be patient, and let him wander like the blind, shotgun-loving menace he is.

IF you do manage to take him down, however, you’ll earn 2.5-7.5k!
