Hunter

From the Pantheon Wiki

Hunter involves setting traps and tracking creatures to catch them for resources. Different creatures require different trap types — box traps for chinchompas, bird snares for birds, and net traps for lizards. Red and black chinchompas are valuable Ranged ammunition and sell for high prices on the GE.

Pantheon notes: Black chinchompas in the Wilderness (80 Hunter) offer the best XP per hour but carry PvP risk. Red chinchompas in the Feldip Hills are a safer alternative. Herbiboars on Fossil Island (80 Hunter + 31 Herblore) give excellent XP and passively train Herblore. Bird Houses on Fossil Island are worth running every 50 minutes for passive Hunter XP alongside any other activity.
