Huntsman can be a major threat during your retrieval and extraction mission in REPO—unless you know how to counter him.
REPO, the sensational steam hit, has maintained a stable player count since its launch. The 6-player co-op horror game features different types of monsters that hunt you and your teammates during missions. Huntsman is a unique monster who uses his shotgun as a walking stick due to his blindness. However, if you attempt to exploit his blindness, the tables will turn, and you will quickly become his prey.
Resembling the blind man in the Don’t Breathe movie, Huntsman can be a lethal enemy if not handled carefully. While he may not be as challenging as other monsters, understanding his weakness is essential for survival. Here is how to counter and defeat the Huntsman in REPO.

How To Escape the Huntsman in REPO
Huntsman is a blind monster who usually wanders along designated paths, using his shotgun as a walking cane. He usually appears in Swiftbroom Academy, patrolling specific paths. Despite his blindness, he has exceptional hearing ability. He can sense minute sounds and immediately fire a fatal shot in that direction. If you make a sound and he detects you, he will likely kill you with a single shot.
The best way to counter Huntsman is to remain as quiet as possible and avoid crossing his paths, as even an accidental bump can trigger him. You can throw objects to distract him, creating an opportunity to sneak past him. Turning off your mic or staying quiet is the crucial strategy against Huntsman—running should be your last option. If triggered, he will shout before firing. Use this brief window to get somewhere safe or hide behind a barricade like a wall, shelf, or table.

How To Kill the Huntsman in REPO
Since the Huntsman often patrols the extraction point, he can be a major threat when you are collecting valuable heavy items. Fortunately, there are several ways to kill the Huntsman. While using a gun might seem like the obvious choice, it may not be available early in the game.
Instead, use items like Baseball Bats, Sledgehammers, Traq Guns, or Stun Grenades to stun him. Then, use the opportunity to finish him off with melee weapons like a Frying Pan or Baseball Bat before he gets back on his feet. Alternatively, mines and explosives are effective against him, as he is unable to see them.
A notable weakness of the Huntsman is the stairs. He will trip and fall when navigating stairs, taking significant damage. You can use this trick to lure him up and down repeatedly to gradually weaken and kill him.
