Another useful thing is blocking hunter pounces... when a hunter is pouncing, if it is from a distance away, you can step back.. this normally causes the hunter to miss and allows you to nudge him away and kill him... the other way is to nudge when he is about to hit you... it will also prevent a successful pounce as shown here... and important to note is that the nudge can come from the ranged or melee weapon equiped =3
