'''Hunter''' is a [[members-only]] [[skill]] in which players catch different [[Hunter creatures|animals and creatures]] in ''[[RuneScape]]''. Although Hunter is a non-[[combat]] skill, players can still be damaged while hunting. Using hunting equipment bought from [[hunter stores]], players can hunt specific creatures obtaining rewards such as [[spotted kebbit fur]] for [[spotted cape]], [[chinchompa]]s, [[black salamander]]s, and the fabled [[dragon impling]]s.
 
Hunter can be trained in a variety of locations throughout the game, with most players beginning their training in the [[Feldip Hills]]. [[Birdhouses]] are often utilised at later levels, and at level 46 players can access the [[Hunter Guild]], located in the [[Avium Savannah]], along with its associated [[rumours]].
 
Released in November 2006, Hunter is the most recent skill added to ''Old School RuneScape''.

Talk to the hunting tutor and purchase 1 of the 3 skilling outfits for a 10% XP BOOST!
 
Setup bird snares up until you can move onto swamp lizards (crimson swifts up until lvl 19 then switch to tropical wagtails).
 
Continue doing this until you can move onto net traps. Once you get to level 29 move over to swamp lizards. Have a small fishing net and a rope in your inv then click on a tree to setup a trap and wait for a swamp lizard to get caught. Every 20 levels you are able to setup 1 additional trap.
 
Continue doing this until you get to level 47 then move over to orange salamanders. Same concept.
 
Once you get to level 53 start doing chinchompas by laying box traps in the designated area below:
 
Keep doing this until you get to level 60 then start placing 4 traps at a time. I like to place them into a square or a straight line to increase odds of getting a catch.
 
Move over to red chinchompas when you get to lvl 63, placing 4 traps at a time.
 
Move over to black salamanders when you can at level 75 located ::champ north. Once you're level 80 you should start putting 5 traps up at a time.
 
Continue doing this until you can do black chinchompas at ::chins. Be sure to place 5 traps at a time and continue doing this method until you reach 99

==Hunting techniques==
===Bird snaring===
{{Main|Bird snare}}
 
The bird snaring technique is used to catch several [[Bird (disambiguation)|birds]]. With the required Hunter level, the player may set up a bird snare and wait for a bird to approach the trap.
 
===Box trapping===
{{Main|Box trap}}
 
The box trapping technique is used to catch [[ferret]]s and [[Chinchompa (disambiguation)|chinchompa]]s. With the required Hunter level and completion of the [[Eagles' Peak]] quest, the player may set up a box trap. When a chinchompa or ferret passes the trap, it may be caught, but only when the player is not standing on the trap.
 
===Butterfly netting===
[[File:Butterfly net detail.png|right|100px]]
{{Main|Butterfly net}}
 
The butterfly netting technique is used to catch [[impling]]s and bats. With the required Hunter level, a [[butterfly net]] (or [[magic butterfly net]]) and the appropriate container (a [[Butterfly jar|butterfly]] or [[impling jar]]), the player may left-click on a flying creature to capture it.
 
===Implings===
[[File:Dragon impling jar detail.png|right|100px]]
{{Main|Impling}}
 
[[Implings]] are small creatures that can be hunted on the skilling island and in the wilderness.
 
===Net trapping===
{{Main|Net trap}}
 
The net trapping technique is used to catch [[salamander]]s. With the required Hunter level, a [[rope]] and [[small fishing net]] in the inventory, clicking on a [[young tree]] will set the trap. When the lizard or salamander passes the trap, it may be caught, but only when the player is not standing on the net.[[File:Herbiboar.png|right|100px]]
==Miscellaneous==
===Bait and smoking traps===
There are three ways for player to increase the catch rate of creatures: a higher skill level, using bait and smoking the trap. Many [[Hunter creatures]] have a preferred bait that players can use on a trap to increase the catch rate. To find out what the preferred bait of a creature is, visit the creature's page or the in-game Hunter guide. By smoking a trap, the player's scent will vanish, and thus make the creature less suspicious of the trap. A trap can be smoked by using a lit [[torch]] on the trap.
 
Adding a creature's corresponding bait to a trap will increase the catch rate by +3%, while smoking a trap with a [[Torch]] will increase the catch rate by +2%.{{CiteTwitter|author=Mod Ash|url=https://twitter.com/JagexAsh/status/793829284288851968|date=2 November 2016|archiveurl=https://archive.is/MBH14|archivedate=29 May 2020|quote=+2% for the smoke, +3% for the bait.}} Due to the low increase of the catch rate, most players believe that smoking or adding bait to traps doesn't justify the extra actions it takes.
 
===Multiple traps===
Box trapping, net trapping, bird snaring and rabbit snaring can be done with multiple traps at once, with the maximum amount of traps depending on the player's Hunter level.
 
An extra trap may be set while hunting [[Black salamander (Hunter)|black salamander]]s or [[Black chinchompa (Hunter)|black chinchompa]]s in the [[wilderness]].
 
Temporary boosts make it possible to use more traps at lower levels.

===Hunter shops===
There are two [[Hunter stores]] in which players can buy hunter tools.
*
 
===Hunter and camouflage clothing===
{{Main|Fancy Clothes Store}}
[[File:Custom Fur Clothing.png|right|400x400px]]
Some Hunter creatures will reward the player with the creature's fur when caught. These furs may be traded in at the [[Fancy Clothes Store]] in south-east [[Varrock]] for different types of [[hunter gear]]. In addition to the furs, the costume maker will also charge a small fee to create this gear.
*[[Polar camouflage gear]] - [[Polar kebbit fur]]
*[[Wood camouflage gear]] - [[Common kebbit fur]]
*[[Jungle camouflage gear]] - [[Feldip weasel fur]]
*[[Desert camouflage gear]] - [[Desert devil fur]]
*[[Larupia hunter gear]] - [[Larupia fur]] and [[tatty larupia fur]]
*[[Graahk hunter gear]] - [[Graahk fur]] and [[tatty graahk fur]]
*[[Kyatt hunter gear]] - [[Kyatt fur]] and [[tatty kyatt fur]]
 
Wearing camouflage gear does not improve the chance of successfully capturing creatures {{CiteTwitter|author=Mod Ash|url=https://twitter.com/JagexAsh/status/570364523552509952|date=24 February 2015|archiveurl=https://archive.is/ZRz6J|archivedate=29 May 2020|quote=[Does any hunter gear work?] Nope.}}, although the tops and legs reduce the player's weight when worn by 3kg and 2kg respectively.
 
The Larupia, Graahk, and Kyatt hunter gear sets reduce damage from Hunter creatures by 20%, 40%, and 60% respectively.
 
The costume maker can also make a few other items. [[Spotted cape|Spotted]] and [[spottier cape]]s reduce the player's weight when worn, and the [[gloves of silence]] made from dark kebbit furs make pickpocketing easier.
 
==Hunter pets==
===Baby chinchompa===
[[File:Baby Chinchompa (grey).png|right|90px]]
{{Main|Baby chinchompa}}
The [[baby chinchompa]] is a skilling [[pet]] that can be obtained while catching any kind of [[Chinchompa (disambiguation)|chinchompa]]. The chances of getting it are dependent on the player's Hunter level and the type of chinchompa being hunted.
 
===Herbi: make it say herbi is herblore pet on roat and redirect to herblore===
[[File:Herbi (follower).png|right|85px]]
===Quetzin===
[[File:Quetzin (follower).png|right|width=85x85]]
{{Main|Quetzin}}
[[Quetzin]] is a [[pet]] that can be obtained as a [[Hunters' loot sack (disambiguation)|potential reward]] from completing [[Hunters' Rumours]] in the [[Hunter Guild]]. The pet can be obtained from any tier of rumours.
