Yahar'gul Hunter (Rifle Spear & Ludwig's Rifle) ❘ 黒衣の人狩り	Hunter Enemy

This Yahar'gul hunter and his Tonitrus-wielding partner guard the path to the village from the Cathedral Ward and will attack together if you charge in carelessly, but it's possible to fight them separately if you lure his partner away first. This hunter wields a Rifle Spear and can shoot at you with it in its transformed state; he also wields Ludwig's Rifle, a scattergun with considerably longer range than the Hunter Blunderbuss, and will take full advantage of its longer reach to harass you from a distance while his partner pummels you at close range.

Tables below consist of datamined stats and equipment, this specific information is for NPCs, hunters or less, that uses a player-like human model and skeleton, practically every NPC that can be equipped with player's gears. Some characters are equipped with items that they aren't programmed to use by the AI, such items are highlighted. All characters have infinite Quicksilver Bullets and 99 copies of any item they hold (including Blood Vials) and the only thing that prevents from infinitely consuming them is written in their AI script. For information about all characters visit Datamined NPCs Stats & Equipment wiki page.

Eliminate the other hunter before attacking this one - his scatter shots are much less dangerous without an ally to support him. Interrupt him and perform visceral attacks when possible; otherwise quickstep forward through his scatter shots and hit him with quickstepping attacks or R1 combos. He'll usually evade slower thrown weapons like Molotovs, but Poison Knives or gems that add poison effects to your weapons are effective for wearing him down.

	Pungent Blood Cocktails don't attract this enemy, making the item ineffective.
	Shaman Bone Blades affect this enemy, making it hostile to other enemies.
