The Dawn of the Hunt update's big new addition is the Huntress, a new class that will join the Warrior, Ranger, Witch, Mercenary, Monk, and Sorceress already available.

Grinding Gear Games says the Huntress' "brutal arsenal is designed to make combat feel like a relentless pursuit, always in motion, moving into and out of Path of exile currency melee range at a moment's notice."

She can also parry attacks and use elemental spear attacks, which sound like a lot of fun, and she has a couple of Ascendancy Classes that players can earn. The Ritualist is all about sacrifice and wielding plague against enemies, while Amazon focuses on the elemental side of things.

Other Ascendancies being added are the Witch's Lich option, which deals in curses and "undeath", while Warriors will gain the "Smith of Kitava" Ascendancy class to "forge weapons of destruction in fire and suffering". Rounding things out is the Tactician path for the Mercenary, which "brings military-grade brutality to POE currency for sale the battlefield".

The following new Skills are being added, too, as per the devs:

Raise Spectre - This skill lets you trap and summon the souls of almost any monster in the game. With hundreds of monster variants in Path of Exile 2, expect endless experimentation to find the perfect undead army.
Summon Rhoa Mount - Call forth a Rhoa to fight by your side or mount it to move at full speed while attacking. But beware, taking too much damage can knock you off, leaving you vulnerable to a brutal fate.
