How Do Hunter Talent Points Work?

How many talent points at level 60? 51. The first point arrives at level 10, with one more per level through 60 — the same budget for every class.

Row gates. Each row beyond the first requires points spent in earlier rows of the same tree: 5 points per row tier, up to 30 for the final row. Points in other trees never count, and points in the current row do not unlock themselves.

Prerequisites. Some talents require a specific rank in an earlier talent first. The calculator enforces both rules as you click, including when removing points that downstream talents rely on.

Legacy bonuses. The standard ruleset counts only points earned by leveling. Legacy early-spend effects are not modeled in this version, and would ship as a separate budget profile rather than silently changing this one.

Hunter Talent Reference

The full static reference lists every Hunter talent with its rank text, grid position, Classic counterpart, and per-rank source status — 70 of 148 ranks currently have effect text, and unconfirmed ranks are labeled instead of guessed. It is plain HTML, readable without JavaScript and safe to cite.

51 points: the first at level 10, one more per level through 60. Legacy bonus points are not included in the standard budget.

Can I share my Hunter build with someone?

Yes — copy the share link from the calculator. It encodes your class, level, point allocation, and data snapshot in the URL, so the recipient sees the exact setup with no account on either side.

What happens to my Hunter share links after a data update?

They keep opening on the original snapshot. Share links record the snapshot ID, and published snapshots are never overwritten, so an old link always restores the build against the data it was created with.

Is the Hunter data final?

No — this is preview-stage data published September 15, 2026. Tree structure has been reviewed, but many rank texts are still source estimates or unknown; each rank shows its own evidence status.
