BestiaryBestiary (Old Hunter)

The Old Hunter is an NPC vendor that sells various items related to the ranger class. He will move in once the following criteria have been met:

  • There is an available vacant house.
  • Awakening him by bringing all 4 Old Hunter's Body Parts to the Giant Web in the center of the Spider Grotto biome. Afterwards, if the Old Hunter NPC is killed, he will move in again after some time as long as there are vacant houses.

When threatened by enemies, the Old Hunter will defend himself by throwing Bone Glove's XBones.
