The Hunter is a hybrid class of Druid and Ranger from the Advanced Class Guide. He casts spontaneously, using the six-level spells per day/spells known progression of bards, Inquisitors and Summoners. He learns spells from both classes' lists, taking it at a lower level if it shows up on both lists at different levels. He pretty much takes the animal and nature abilities of both classes and combines them, with a neutral alignment requirement, the weaker BAB of the druid, martial weapon proficiency, and no restriction on armor materials.

Generally not a very popular class due to the aforementioned underspecialization problem and the fact that most people have no interest in teamwork feats.
