Demon hunters are relentless vigilantes who execute their infernal targets with an arsenal of ranged weapons. They crouch and take aim far from danger, relying on bows, deadly traps, and projectiles to swiftly bring an end to the creatures that haunt their world.
With sweeping blasts of shot, wide salvos of arrows and timed explosives at their disposal, demon hunters excel at devastating groups of foes who cluster together. Hunters’ pinpoint accuracy also allows them to deal with stronger monsters at a distance: they can snipe at key targets or fall back while snapping off kill shots at advancing foes.
However, demon hunters’ focus on ranged combat and limited melee-weapons training leave them in danger when they’re cornered or surrounded. Evasive skills like defensive rolls and jumps, as well as targeted attacks that hamstring and slow enemies, are as crucial to survival as any arrow in a hunter’s quiver.

Patch note for Demon Hunter on 2.1
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
Demon Hunter
Philosophy
We've chosen to focus the Demon Hunter more on Cold skills and away from Poison skills. This change allows us to provide more Cold options to the Demon Hunter. Going from five to four elements for the class overall increases the likelihood you'll get an elemental damage bonus you want.
Preparation – Punishment has been redesigned. The previous gameplay encouraged using all of your Discipline for offensive purposes, which undermined the role of Discipline as a defensive or tactical resource.
Patch 2.1.0 brings changes to how the heroes of Sanctuary recover Life. Health globes are being de-emphasized while item and skill choices will be more prominent. Numerous healing related skills on the Demon Hunter have been increased.
