All Mistfall Hunter Class Abilities

Combat system basics

• No lock-on. The devs removed target lock to raise PvP depth — aim with your camera.
• Dodge, block, perfect block. Universal defense tools; there's no sprint key, so movement is skill-based (see our movement guide).
• Weapon switching mid-fight. Swap between your class's two weapon branches to handle different enemies.
• Skill types. Basic Skill (free/basic attacks), Weapon Skill (the branch's active kit), plus utility and ultimate-style slots that differ per class.
