When going into a revamp for this class we wanted to keep the core concept of the class focusing on single target basic attacks while adding new tools to assist this playstyle. We have removed Radiant Arrow and replaced it with Shadow Seekers. Shadow Seekers uses a new resource called Seekers that are gained from basic attacking Shadow Marked targets. The Shadow Hunter now deals increased damage to Shadow Marked targets and Sun Snare now applies Shadow Mark to enemies damaged by it. Additionally, we have implemented a new ultimate called Sacred Arrow which fires a large arrow, applying a damage over time effect to any targets hit by it. Holding down the ultimate button will continuously fire these arrows until the Shadow Hunter runs out of energy. Sacred Arrow’s damage over time effect can stack multiple times.

• Passive – Dark Whispers – Nearby enemies periodically receive a Shadow Mark, increasing damage done to them by 5% as well as making them visible through walls. When the Shadow Hunter uses a basic attack on Shadow Marked targets a small explosion is triggered at the target dealing 100% damage and granting the class one Seeker. Additionally, when dodging the Shadow Hunter gains a movement speed boost for a short time. This boost is refreshed when dodging if already active.
• Basic Attack – Basic shot attack damage increased to 375% up from 250%. Projectile size has also been increased. Additionally, basic attacks can shoot through walls and enemies.
• Gem Attack Shadow Blitz – Basic Attack becomes a rapid-fire stream of arrows. Increased damage to 200% up from 100%. Additionally, added the ability to shoot through walls.
• New primary ability Shadow Seekers – Requires one Seeker to use. On use launches all Seekers that hunt the closest target and explode on contact dealing 250% damage. The Shadow Hunter can store up to 5 Seekers at a time. Damage scales with the number of Seekers available when fired (350%/450%/600%/750%/900% – more Seekers, more better). Shadow Seekers also deal increased Critical Damage.
• Sun Snare – Throws a trap that detonates on proximity, dealing 350% and stunning nearby enemies. Now has increased area of effect and applies Shadow Mark to targets.
• New Ultimate Ability Sacred Arrow – Fire a large damaging arrow of energy that deals 450% damage every second for 7 seconds. The first contact with an enemy will deal 550% damage. This arrow pierces targets and blocks. As long as the ability button is held down you will continuously fire arrows until running out of energy. Slows the player greatly. Damage over time effect can be stacked multiple times on the same target. This ability has a 45 second cooldown.
• The Tactical Shot Hidden Effect has been replaced by Tactical Seekers.  When enemies take damage from the Shadow Hunter’s Sacred Arrow a Shadow Seeker will fire from the Shadow Hunter and attack the closest target.

• Trove combat is now conducted with 64-bit precision for health and damage. No longer will bosses be limited to a mere 2 billion health. 
• Opponents in Delves will no longer rely on somewhat random damage reduction to suppress damage (although deeper bosses are still protected by Darkness). Abyssal and Nightmare depths of Delves should have more accurate feedback on how much damage is actually being done.
• Floating Combat Text now shows more digits. Space has additionally been added between the digits of floating combat text to make them slightly easier to read (credit goes to ab for this, who went as far as making a mod for players on PTS before we could implement essentially the same change by accident.)

The idea here is to make some balance changes to classes overall and shake up the overall meta play.  Some classes have been brought down a little to bring them in line with others, while most classes have been buffed.
