But still, they hunt, hoping that if they can save even but one life from the forces of Hell, the world will be better for it. They cannot hope to return to their former lives, and are perpetually at war within themselves, striving to balance their hatred for demons with the need of discipline. Yet they dare not dream of victory, or, even less likely, peace. They hone this power, for their resistance to this taint enables them to use the demons' power as a weapon. There is something in all Demon Hunters that gives them the strength to resist the demonic corruption that would drive lesser men to madness. It was from one such act that the creed of the Demon Hunters was created. When their homes are burned down and their families butchered by demons, most newly scarred refugees give up on living – but a few bury their dead, band together, and swear vengeance.

Rather, Demon Hunters are those who have lost their homes and loved ones to demonspawn. Sworn to the destruction of the creatures of the Burning Hells, the Demon Hunters are few in number -only in the hundreds and do not owe their allegiance to any one king or country. In the year 1270, the Demon Hunters were just starting to form. Evasive skills like defensive rolls and jumps, as well as targeted attacks that hamstring and slow enemies, are as crucial to survival as any arrow or bolt in a hunter's quiver.

However, Demon Hunters’ focus on ranged combat and limited melee-weapons training leave them in danger when they’re cornered or surrounded. Hunters’ pinpoint accuracy also allows them to deal with stronger monsters at a distance: they can snipe at key targets or fall back while snapping off kill shots at advancing foes. With sweeping blasts of shot, wide salvos of arrows and timed explosives at their disposal, Demon Hunters excel at devastating groups of foes who cluster together. They crouch and take aim far from danger, relying on bows and crossbows, deadly traps, and projectiles to swiftly bring an end to the creatures that haunt their world. Demon Hunters are relentless vigilantes who execute their infernal targets with an arsenal of ranged weapons at their full disposal.
