Overview

The Blue Hunter provides excellent high DPS through mobile ranged attacks. Less range then red, but can induct on the move. 

Making them ideal as a DPS for all types of content. With the ability to trait for more AoE damage, they can also dish out significant damage to multiple targets, which is useful for trash pulls.

Stat Priority

For stats you’ll focus on Critical Rating -> Physical Mastery -> (Enough)Finesse -> Tact/Phys Mitigations -> Vitality

When it comes to stat prioritization for a Red Hunter, Critical Rating (25%) should be prioritized over Physical Mastery (200%), followed by Tactical Mitigation and then Vitality.

Keep in mind that, through the traits Shoot To Kill and Critical Eye, the cap for Critical Rating is increased to 30% and the cap for Ranged Attacks is increased to 210%.
