The Bounty Hunter is one of the playable Heroes inDarkest Dungeon As a highly offensive support hero, he functions best in the {{Rank|ally|.oo.}} middle ranks. His skills are designed around combos with his teammates: his utility skills can apply {{Stun|-}}, {{Mark|-}}, {{Move|-}}, and {{Debuff|-}} to disable threatening enemies; while his damage-dealing skills are greatly boosted by {{Stun|-}} and {{Mark|-}} status effects, allowing the Bounty Hunter to quickly finish off enemies that have been disabled by others.

Combat Skills

A brutally efficient single-target executioner and crowd control specialist. For the Bounty Hunter, planning is key - mark targets for bonus damage or look for opportunities to capitalize on a stunned foe. He can also wreak havoc on an enemy party's order using his grappling hook, flashbangs and powerful uppercut.

— Guild

Note: New Bounty Hunters will always come with the Collect Bounty skill.

(All buffs and debuffs last for 3 rounds unless otherwise specified.)

Camping Skills

At camp, like in combat, the Bounty Hunter is all about preparedness. He can take time to study his notes, bettering his odds against typical foes or even specifically 'big game'. Scouting ahead can increase a party's knowledge of lurking threats, while tracking increases the party's chance of maintaining the element of surprise.

— Survivalist

Camping skills are special skills heroes can use while they are camping. They take a certain number of "respite" points to use, and can only be used once per camp (unless the skill says otherwise). Most heroes have three shared camping skills and all heroes have 4 unique camping skills (with the Flagellant being the exception, having only unique camping skills). Only 4 of these can be equipped at one time. Any Buffs or lasting effects given from a camping skill lasts for 4 battles.

During camp, the Bounty Hunter is able to buff his accuracy and crit chance or increase his damage against large enemies. He can also increase scouting chance and reduce the chance of the party being surprised.

* _{This bonus also applies for enemies larger than size 2.}

Equipment

The Bounty Hunter favors a hand-axe and grappling hook, a pairing that allows him to ensnare and execute his quarry with professional efficiency. His tough leather and scale armor grants decent protection, without sacrificing mobility.
