Notes

Hunters are outlaws that dwell in the large forests of Tibia. They do not only hunt animals but also attack travellers and adventurers. Although they are not strong, they are very deadly due to their quickness and their bows.

—Tibia Library

Fierce creatures that attack anyone who approaches them. Often mistaken on PVP worlds as a PKer by newbies. They are very dangerous for low level players. They can shoot you from off-screen.

Location

North of Mount Sternum, Plains of Havoc, Outlaw Camp, Dark Cathedral, Femor Hills, Maze of Lost Souls, north of the Amazon Camp, at the entrance and in the Hero Cave, a castle tower at Elvenbane, Trade Quarter, Smuggler camp on Tyrsung, Formorgar Mines.

Behaviour

Hunters run when in low health. They can't be pushed and move objects.

Strategy

Knights should approach them quickly before they shoot more Arrows. A good strategy for knights would be to run towards them in full defense and once you are near them, attack with full offense. Another strategy is to duck behind a corner of a house and force the hunter to walk closer to you. Because of the hunter's low defense a knight can kill them easily.
Paladins should not fight these creatures unless they have a Stealth Ring, shield or high enough skills to kill them in 1 or 2 shots, and if you're planning to kill it without spells or runes, make sure to have a good healing spell, rune or potion ready in case of a high hit. A distance level of around 50 is recommended to kill them easily.
Mages should use Invisible or if they are hunting them they should summon monks. Overall, stay away from these unless you have to get through them to get to where you want to hunt (e.g. Heroes) or if you need to get a pair of Sniper Gloves. They usually aren't worth the trouble.
