FAQ

How much does the Bounty Hunter class cost in Drill to Earth's Core?
Bounty Hunter costs 30,000 Cores (Tier 5 in the Academy). The four Tier 5 classes - Bounty Hunter among them - sit at the top of the price ladder, so treat the unlock as a savings project rather than an impulse buy.
What does Bounty Hunter start with?
Bounty Hunter starts with Bounty Hunter Armor Set, Bounty Hunter Cleaver. Starter gear alone does not decide a class - the four level passives below it do - but it does mean you can use the class the moment you buy it.
What is the Bounty Hunter Level 3 passive?
Defeated dungeon bosses become bounties. Level 3 is the last personal upgrade; Level 4 turns the class into a team asset.
What is the Bounty Hunter team bonus?
Enemies have a 5% chance to become Bounties. Level 4 is the team bonus - it applies to the whole 30-player server and gates on career total depth, not on anything you do in one run.

What Bounty Hunter actually does

Bounty Hunter is a Tier 5 Academy class at 30,000 Cores. Like every class in the game, it hands you starter gear (Bounty Hunter Armor Set, Bounty Hunter Cleaver) and then scales through four levels - three personal upgrades and a team bonus at the end.

The Level 1 passive is the identity: Bounties give 100% extra Coins. Everything after that builds on the same idea rather than switching lanes.

Level by level

Level Unlock What changes
1 30,000 Cores Bounties give 100% extra Coins
2 Class level requirement +50% Gun and Melee damage
3 Class level requirement Defeated dungeon bosses become bounties
4 Career total depth gate Enemies have a 5% chance to become Bounties (team bonus)

Level 4 is the team bonus - it applies to the whole 30-player server and gates on career total depth, not on anything you do in one run.

Is Bounty Hunter worth 30,000 Cores?

At Bounty Hunter’s price point the question is never whether the class works - it is whether it fixes a problem you actually have. Tier 5 unlocks cost more than everything below them combined, so buy one when your runs are failing for the specific reason this class solves.

Where it fits in a team

The team bonus is what makes Bounty Hunter show up in multiplayer lobbies: Enemies have a 5% chance to become Bounties. In a 30-player server that is a bonus nobody has to spend their own Cores on, which is why team-first classes get picked even by players who main something else.

Bounty scaling is covered alongside enemy types in the enemies and mutations guide.
