The Huntress is a hero focused on ranged attacks, missile weapons, and interacting with the environment. She can attack enemies from a distance with her Spirit bow, which isn't limited by durability or energy. After beating the second boss, she can become the Sniper who can perform special follow-up attacks with her bow after using a missile weapon or the Warden, who gains additional benefits from interacting with grass and seeds.
The hero is unlocked by hitting 10 enemies with the help of thrown weapons in a single run.

Characteristics[]
Huntress's unique item is her Spirit Bow.
| ||
| A bow made of out ancient magical wood. The bow's string and etchings glow with a pale blue light. When the string is pulled this bow will conjure a magical arrow which can be fired at an enemy. The bow cannot be directly upgraded, but will instead steadily grow stronger as you level up. At your current level, arrows shot from the bow will deal 1-6 damage and require 10 strength to use properly. | ||
The Spirit Bow serves as Huntress's limitless source of ranged damage, allowing her to keep using ranged attacks as long as she can maintain her distance from enemies. It cannot be equipped, it's used from inventory just like missile weapons, although it doesn't fit into the magical holster.
The Spirit Bow cannot be upgraded by the player. Instead, its level scales with the Huntress's current experience level, gaining an upgrade every five levels (thus peaking at +6 at level 30). That said, the damage takes into account fractional levels, so if a player is level 3, the bow will do 1-7 damage instead of 1-6. Reaching level 10 will cause the bow damage to increase to 2-8.
The bow, however, can be enchanted or cursed. As it cannot be upgraded with a scroll, it never loses an enchantment unless it's overwritten by a different one. It also benefits from the Ring of Sharpshooting, the Ring of Furor and the Ring of Arcana as expected.
Additionally, the Huntress only furrows tall grass when walking through instead of trampling it. This lets her use grass as cover much more effectively. She also automatically identifies potion of mind vision and scroll of lullaby.

Sniper[]
The Sniper's thrown weapons and Spirit Bow will ignore armor as long as their targets are not adjacent to her. After using a thrown weapon (other than the Bow itself), she will be able to use a special move corresponding to her bow's augment.
| ||
| The Sniper is honed in on the target she most recently attacked. She is able to perform a special attack with her bow which will vary based on how the bow is augmented. An unaugmented bow will fire a snapshot, which deals reduced damage but does not take any time to fire. A bow augmented for speed will fire a volley of three arrows. Each arrow will deal reduced damage, but can still activate enchantment. This volley takes 1 turn to shoot. A bow augmented for damage will fire a sniper shot. This shot is guaranteed to hit, deals bonus damage based on distance from the target, and takes 2 turns to fire. | ||

Warden[]
The warden has the ability to see through grass. When planting a seed, furrowed grass will erupt all around the plant, allowing her to break line of sight. If a plant has trampled by her, it has a more powerful effect and plants with which would normally be detrimental are now beneficial. For a detailed list of these effects check the page about plants or see the table below.
| Plant | Effect |
|---|---|
| Furrowed grass | Grants level+5 barkskin that degrades by 1 every turn. |
| Blindweed | 10 turns of invisibility. Repeated uses of blindweed will add their new invisiblity duration to the current, so if you have 4 turns of invisibility left, you will now be invisible for 14 turns. |
| Mageroyal | In addition to regular effect, grants 10 turns of blob immunity that can stack. |
| Earthroot | Instead of regular effect, gives (depth+5)∕2 barkskin that degrades over intervals of 5 turns. |
| Fadeleaf | Warps Huntress to the exit of the depth above. |
| Firebloom | In addition to regular effect, gives 15 turns of fire imbue, granting immunity to fire and causing attacks to apply burning with a 50% chance each. |
| Icecap | Grants 15 turns of frost imbue in addition to its regular instant freeze in a 3x3 area, giving the hero immunities to chill and freezing and causing attacks to each stack 2 turns of chilling onto targets, slowing them down. |
| Rotberry | Grants 200 turns of adreneline surge, boosting the hero's strength by 1. Rotberry is incredibly useful due to its trait of dropping itself after you trample it, giving the warden easy access to furrowed grass while also keeping her strength 1 point higher than it would be otherwise. |
| Sorrowmoss | Grants 15 turns of toxic imbue, giving the hero immunities to poison and toxic gas while also causing the hero to produce toxic gas. It is very important to note that the toxic gas will still be there AFTER the effect wears off, so make sure to scram to keep the toxic gas from killing you. |
| Starflower | In addition to standard effects, grants 20 turns of recharging (which cannot stack past 20). This trait alone makes the wand of regrowth have a very powerful synergy with the warden, as a single starflower will give many charges to the wand, allowing it to be zapped much more often, giving even easier access to warden effects and grass. |
| Stormvine | Grants 10 turns of levitation instead of inflicting vertigo. |
| Sungrass | Grants healing instead of herbal healing; this heals 1 HP per turn for as many turns as you have total HP. For example, a 20 health hero will get 20 turns of 1 hp healing. |
| Swifthistle | In addition to granting 5 turns of time bubble, grants 5 turns of haste, allowing easy kiting of enemies. |
