You must be an Archer at Job Level 40 or higher to become a Hunter. The Hunter Guild is in Hugel. You will do an interview, gather materials, and pass a practical trap-and-hunt test.
💡Use all your skill points before you start. Hunter Sherin will not process your application if you have unspent points.
Go to the Hunter Guild in Hugel.
Take the airship to Hugel, then find the Hunter Guild building. Inside, talk to Hunter Sherin.
Tell her you want to become a Hunter and choose to start now. She will ask you ten personality questions. There are no wrong answers that disqualify you outright, but aim for the considerate options. You need a score of 90 or 100 to pass on the first try. If you score lower, talk to her again to retake the interview.
Bring materials to the Demon Hunter.
After passing the interview, Sherin sends you to the Demon Hunter (the Guild Receptionist) at the back of the same building.
He will assign you a random set of three items. The NPC will tell you exactly which items and how many. The seven possible sets are:
- Set 1: 5x Insect Feeler, 5x Trunk, 3x White Herb
- Set 2: 3x Bill of Birds, 5x Skel-Bone, 3x Green Herb
- Set 3: 3x Rainbow Shell, 3x Animal Skin, 5x Red Herb
- Set 4: 3x Horn, 3x Poison Spore, 10x Fluff
- Set 5: 9x Shell, 9x Worm Peeling, 9x Yellow Herb
- Set 6: 3x Tooth of Bat, 1x Sticky Mucus, 1x Bear's Footskin
- Set 7: 2x Porcupine Quill, 1x Yoyo Tail, 1x Acorn
Collect your assigned items and return to the Demon Hunter to hand them in.
Get directions from the Hunter Guildmaster.
After handing in your materials, the Demon Hunter sends you to the Hunter Guildmaster. Depending on your set, he will be at one of two places:
- Sets 1 to 4: Guildmaster is at the Payon Central Palace (Payon Interior).
- Sets 5 to 7: Guildmaster is at the Archer Guild in Payon.
Talk to him and choose to begin the test. He gives you 200 Silver Arrow to use in the exam.
Pass the practical hunt test.
The Guildmaster warps you into a test map. You must hunt monsters named Job change target while dodging traps on the floor. Kill all 6 target monsters and hit the escape switch in the center of the map, then exit through the north side.
If you fall into a trap, you restart from the beginning of the room. Only one person can take the test at a time. Wait in the chatroom at the entrance if someone else is inside.
After passing, the Guildmaster gives you a Necklace of Wisdom (item 1007) as proof that you passed.
Return to Hunter Sherin with your Necklace.
Bring the Necklace of Wisdom back to Hunter Sherin in the Hugel Guild. She will confirm you passed and complete your job change.
You are now a Hunter.
