Manhunter pulse is a level 6 psycast that drives animals manhunter in its area of effect.

Acquisition

There are two ways to acquire Manhunter pulse:

  1. A randomly selected level 6 psycast is granted to the psycaster when they gain psylink level 6. Manhunter pulse is one of the options that may be selected. Note that this occurs regardless of how the psylink level is gained.
  2. Manhunter pulse can also be acquired from a psytrainer naming it. See the psytrainer page for further details.
