Treasure Hunter class guide (Human) — strengths, skills and step by step
The Treasure Hunter is the human rogue who thrives on brutal critical hits and speed. Learn its strengths, skills and a simple step-by-step to start from scratch.
In short: The Treasure Hunter is a human rogue who crushes enemies with huge stealth strikes and lots of mobility. It's the perfect class for anyone who loves hitting fast, cracking open chests and farming aggressively.
Picture a nimble fighter who prefers a sharp blade to heavy armor. He closes in silently, finds the target's weak spot and unleashes a devastating strike before the enemy even notices.
Playing a Treasure Hunter feels like hit-and-run combat: you run faster than the others, land a giant "crit" (a hit that deals far more damage than usual) and vanish. It's thrilling, rewarding and very friendly for anyone farming solo.

Strengths
- High sturdiness for a rogue (CON 43): among the class's attributes, resilience is the strongest point. In practice, that means you take more punishment than you'd expect from a nimble character, and survive better while farming solo.
- Solid strength (STR 40): STR is what makes your physical strikes hurt. With a value well above average, every dagger hit already lands heavy, even without elite gear.
- Good dexterity (DEX 30): DEX raises your chance to crit and to land hits. Since the Treasure Hunter lives off critical stealth strikes, this high dexterity makes your damage spikes far more frequent.
- Devastating stealth strike (Mortal Blow): your signature skill is a "blow," a physical attack that deals a sky-high damage spike. Used well, it drops targets in seconds.
- Built-in mobility: with Fast Run, Wind Walk and Haste, you move faster and attack faster without relying on anyone. That greatly speeds up farming and escaping danger.
- Self-sufficient in the field: Recover HP and Recover MP slowly restore health and mana, so you can hunt longer without heading back to town.
Weaknesses
- Low total HP in the late game (among the lowest): even with high CON, your raw HP at high levels falls below the "tank" classes. Tip: prioritize evasion and crit to end the fight before taking too much damage.
- Fragile against many enemies at once: as a rogue, you're built to focus ONE target, not to hold a crowd. Tip: pull monsters a few at a time and avoid filling the screen with enemies.
- Little magic power: your magic attack is extremely low, so spells and strong healing aren't your game. Tip: pour everything into physical damage and leave the magic side to support allies.
- Depends on getting close: with a short attack range, you need to stick to the enemy to deal damage. Tip: use your speed skills to close the gap fast and avoid taking hits for nothing.
Class-defining skills
- Mortal Blow — the stealth strike (blow), a physical attack with an extremely high spike. It's your main button to take a target down fast; open the fight with it whenever you can.
- Power Strike — a strong physical attack (physical strike) for constant use. It serves as reliable damage between one Mortal Blow and the next.
- Power Shot — another physical strike to keep up the pressure and vary your attack combo.
- Haste — a buff that reduces the time between your attacks, meaning you hit more times per second. Turn it on before every hunt.
- Wind Walk / Fast Run — running-speed buffs. They make you faster to close the gap, chase or flee.
- Ultimate Evasion — a defensive buff that spikes your dodge for a while. Use it when you're taking heavy damage to escape a bad situation.
- Recover HP / Recover MP — slowly restore health and mana (heal over time and mana over time). They keep you hunting longer without stopping.
- Unlock — opens chests and locked doors. It's the trademark of the "treasure hunter": extra loot that other classes can't grab.
- Dark / White Assassin Transformation — high-level transformations that reinforce your character with a special aura. They're impact powers for decisive moments.
Attributes: what to prioritize
The Treasure Hunter is a stealthy physical fighter, so everything revolves around hitting hard, landing crits and surviving long enough to finish the fight.
- STR (strength): top priority — it's what raises the damage of your physical attacks.
- DEX (dexterity): very important — it improves your crit chance and the accuracy of your strikes.
- CON (constitution): great to keep high — it gives more HP and helps you handle solo farming.
- INT/WIT/MEN (the magic side): low priority — you barely use magic, so it's not worth investing here.
Recommended gear
Use daggers (blades) as your weapon — they're what unlock your stealth strikes and crits. For armor, prefer light, which combines speed and evasion without slowing you down.
What to upgrade first: focus on the weapon, because more dagger damage means bigger crits and faster farming. Then upgrade light armor and accessories to gain survivability and stats.
Step by step for beginners
- Create the character: pick a Human and follow the fighter path. That's the starting point to become a Rogue and later a Treasure Hunter.
- Do the first quests in the starting area: they grant experience, basic gear and teach the controls. It's the fastest and safest way out of level 1.
- Turn on auto-hunt: with it on, your character hunts monsters of your level on its own, gaining XP and items even when you're not attacking manually. It's the engine of your progress.
- Follow the professions in order: Starter → 1st Class (Rogue) → 2nd Class (Treasure Hunter). Each change unlocks new skills and makes you visibly stronger; do each one as soon as you reach the right level.
- Prioritize the right skills and buffs: always hunt with Haste and Wind Walk on, open with Mortal Blow, and save Ultimate Evasion for emergencies.
- Gather Adena and L-Coin: Adena is the everyday currency (purchases and repairs) and L-Coin is for special shop items. Selling drops and completing missions keeps your pockets full.
- Keep weapon and armor updated: whenever you can, swap to a better dagger and reinforce your light armor. Old gear stalls your farming and leaves you fragile.
- Learn Unlock and use it: opening chests gives extra loot. It's an easy gain that only your class line offers.
Where to farm
- Auto-hunt on monsters of your level: it's the foundation of your growth; let the AI hunt while you keep an eye on it.
- Move up to harder zones as you level: when your character outgrows the current area, migrate to a more dangerous and rewarding one.
- Form a party for raids and bosses: big targets give better rewards, and your stealth damage shines in a group.
- Use the Season Pass and daily missions: they're steady sources of XP, Adena and items for little effort.
Common beginner mistakes
- Pulling too many monsters at once: your HP can't hold a crowd; hunt one or two at a time.
- Forgetting to turn on buffs: hunting without Haste and Wind Walk wastes a big chunk of your potential.
- Investing in the magic side: your magic attack is minimal; spending points or items on magic is money thrown away.
- Running around with old gear: an outdated dagger drops your damage and farming pace a lot.
It's for you if…
- You like hitting fast and seeing big numbers: the Treasure Hunter's critical stealth strikes are pure impact.
- You enjoy playing solo and farming with agility: mobility and self-healing make solo farming very comfortable.
- You'd rather dodge than tank: if your idea is to end the fight before taking damage, this class was made for you.
