Huntsman

For the Perk of the same name, see Huntsman (Perk)

The is a default mercenary class in Mordhau. He is the only pre-made archer mercenary from all the other default mercenaries. He wields a Longbow, and a Cleaver for close combat and little to no armour available.

=Overview=

Due to his playstyle, he is somehow of a difficult class to master, since positioning is key and the little armor he has makes it very hard to last in prolonged melee fights, as he can get easily taken out with a well placed headshot.

=Strategy=

Being an archer class, the Huntsman is very low armoured, meaning he must stay true to his ability : far away from melee fights. He must also beware of other archers because of the Huntsman perk, he can get easily taken out with a well placed arrow.

Huntsman perk works vice-versa as well, you will deal a lot more damage to other archers, possibly taking them out with 1 well placed Longbow arrow, a good strategy would be to prioritise other archers in order to take maximum advantage of this perk.

Remember that the Huntsman perk only works if you have a Bow equipped. When running around the battlefield under archer fire, its best to switch to the Cleaver instead so the extra damage will not affect you.

The Cleaver should not be underestimated. Even if it's short, it has very good damage against plate armour, making it a good self defense weapon should you find yourself in the situation.

Do not forget to use your Bandage in order to heal yourself for 50hp in case you get hurt !

Cat especially will let the player survive fall damage with relative ease. Use this to quickly jump away to safety, provided you have enough HP to survive the fall in the first place.

= Loadout Data=

The following string of text can be inserted into your Game.ini file, located at  and it will create a copy of the old  loadout that you can edit.

Note: Patch 21 has removed 2 perks which will result in having different perks equipped. We recommend replacing the numbers in the (Perks=xxx) line located at the very end of the code with a single 0 and adding the perks ingame. The perks are Huntsman and Cat.
