“ | "Now, hold on," you keep saying. "Aren't bows and arrows primitive and harmless?"
Why don't you ask the dinosaurs? Except you can't, because the cavemen bow and arrowed them to death. — Huntsman publicity blurb
|
” |
The Huntsman is an unlockable primary weapon for the Sniper. It is a wooden recurve bow held together with black tape. When the Huntsman is equipped, the Sniper carries arrows in the rifle case strapped to his back.
Unlike the Sniper's other primary weapons, which fire bullets, the Huntsman fires arrow projectiles. Holding the primary fire button (default key: MOUSE1) draws the bow and begins charging a shot. Releasing primary fire launches the arrow. The longer primary fire is held, the greater the charge and the more damage and speed the arrow has. Fully charging a shot takes 1 second, and the player can hold that charge by keeping the primary fire button held. However, if a charge is held for more than 5 seconds, the Sniper's arm begins to shake with tension, and the arrow flies wide of the crosshair and deals minimum damage when fired. Pressing the alt-fire button (default key: MOUSE2) cancels a charge without shooting the arrow.
Because arrows are projectiles, there are several considerations when using the Huntsman that aren't shared by the Sniper's other primary weapons. Arrows, unlike bullets, take time to reach their targets and are subject to gravity. This means that long-distance combat is more difficult, due to needing to account for the travel time and arc of the arrows with each shot. Uncharged arrows travel around 1875 Hammer units per second (roughly 128 km/h or 80 mph); a fully charged shot increases the arrow's speed by around 25%. Arrows also have a larger hitbox than bullets. Like most other projectiles, arrows can be deflected by a Pyro's compression blast.
Compared to the Sniper Rifle, the Huntsman carries less ammo, deals less damage on fully-charged shots, and lacks a scope. However, it also charges its shots faster, and allows the Sniper to move faster while charging (53% of normal movement speed, compared to the Sniper Rifle's 27%). The Huntsman's shots can also be charged whilst the Sniper is falling or jumping, and the weapon can be fired in midair. In addition, headshot kills scored with the Huntsman net a total of 2 points, as compared to the 1.5 points obtained from a headshot kill using the Sniper Rifle.
A friendly Pyro can set fire to the Huntsman's arrows with any of their flamethrowers. Enemies struck by a flaming arrow are set on fire. However, Pyros do not get kill assists for lighting a Sniper's arrow. A charge can be cancelled without losing the lit arrow; switching weapons, however, douses the arrow. Some map elements, such as the torches on DeGroot Keep or the flaming barrels on Coal Pit and Devastation, can also light arrows on fire. Submerging in water does not extinguish a lit arrow.
Enemies killed with an arrow while near a solid surface (such as a wall) have their corpse pinned to it by the arrow.
Taunting with the Huntsman equipped results in the Arrow Stab kill taunt.
The Huntsman is automatically given to any player who obtains 5 Sniper achievements.

Bugs
- While having the Huntsman or Fortified Compound equipped, it is possible to still use the Arrow Stab taunt while stunned. The taunt's animation is not played, but the Sniper still says the taunt's line "Stab, Stab, Stab", and can still kill a nearby enemy player by moving the camera towards them before taunting.
- Lit arrows are not extinguished when going underwater.
- With a lit arrow, the fire particle stays when performing special taunts.
- Pressing primary and secondary fire at the same time causes the animation of letting go of the arrow without firing it to play on repeat.
Trivia
- The Huntsman's view model was originally left-handed.
- When first revealed, the Huntsman was to have eighteen arrows. Five were removed, however, it is unknown why.[1]
- The concept of lighting the Huntsman's arrows on fire was not in the original design. The ability was added after the item was shown to the public based on community feedback.[2]
- In the files, the Huntsman is referred to as
tf_weapon_compound_bow
. This is incorrect, as the Huntsman is not a compound bow, but rather a recurve bow.
