Eternium Stalker Bounty Hunter Trial 122 Farming Guide

To farm Trial 122 efficiently on a Bounty Hunter in Eternium, combine the burst damage of the Stalker gear set with dense pack-pulling mechanics. The clear speed depends on using Magnetic Trap to gather large monster groups, activating Smoke Screen to drop threat and boost burst damage, and firing a piercing Snipe through the center of the pack before finishing the trial boss through disciplined kiting.

Recommended Skill Loadout

In higher trials like Trial 122, enemy health scaling outpaces basic attack damage, making cooldown-driven burst windows essential. The Stalker set relies on pairing Snipe with Smoke Screen to guarantee massive critical hits while protecting you from lethal ranged damage during Snipe's cast animation.

Skill Slot	Ability Choice	Combat Role	Primary Synergy
Primary Attack	Explosive Shot or Scatter Shot	Area crowd suppression	Tags scattered trash mobs and maintains steady gauge progression
Secondary Attack	Snipe	Piercing burst damage	Guarantees critical hits when fired from Smoke Screen stealth
Active Ability 1	Smoke Screen	Threat drop and burst amplifier	Provides defensive protection and activates the Stalker burst multiplier
Active Ability 2	Magnetic Trap	Crowd control and grouping	Pulls dispersed enemies into a dense cluster for Snipe
Active Ability 3	Thermal Shock or Rapid Fire	Status effects or single-target burst	Applies elemental shatter or burns down durable elites

Gathering Mob Density

Beating the Trial 122 timer requires continuous forward movement. Fighting single, low-health monsters wastes time because the Trial progress bar fills based on the total experience value of defeated targets.

Sprint through map corridors and tag distant packs with your primary attack to draw them behind you.
Continue moving until you assemble a screen-wide mob cluster that includes at least one or two champion enemies.
Kite in wide circular arcs around open areas or environmental choke points. This forces ranged casters and archers to walk toward the center of the melee pack.
Do not initiate your main burst sequence until enemies are tightly grouped. Wiping twenty monsters at once advances the trial gauge far more efficiently than clearing small, separated packs.

Smoke Screen and Snipe Burst Rotation

Once a cluster forms, execute your burst rotation to clear the pack without taking return damage:

Deploy Magnetic Trap: Place the trap directly in front of the converging front line to pull the entire pack into a tight point.
Activate Smoke Screen: Tap Smoke Screen as soon as the trap activates. This instantly sheds targeting from incoming ranged attacks and triggers the Stalker set's elevated damage boost.
Fire Snipe: Aim Snipe through the densest line of the cluster, ensuring the piercing projectile passes through champion mobs and the minions behind them. Do not cast Snipe before Smoke Screen is active; an unbuffed cast leaves you exposed to stray projectile hits during its animation.
Clean up and move: Use secondary area attacks or primary fire to finish off any low-health stragglers. Immediately sprint toward the next pack rather than waiting to kill isolated, low-value enemies.

Defeating the Trial 122 Boss

Summoning the Trial boss shifts the encounter from area crowd control to survival and sustained burst damage. Bosses at Trial 122 can defeat a Bounty Hunter with a single telegraph attack.

Clear the arena: Reposition to an open area immediately upon summoning to avoid lingering trash mobs or environmental hazards.
Maintain distance: Circle the boss counter-clockwise at maximum weapon range while sustaining primary attacks.
Hold Smoke Screen for defense: Do not cast Smoke Screen on cooldown during the boss fight. Save it to evade lethal boss abilities, including leaps, homing missiles, or charge attacks.
Counter-attack: When the boss initiates an attack telegraph, activate Smoke Screen to cancel its tracking, step out of the danger zone, and fire a buffed Snipe directly into the boss.

Stat Priorities

Speed farming Trial 122 relies on avoidance and positioning rather than stacking armor or life. Allocate gear stats across your Stalker armor, weapons, and jewelry using the following priorities:

Critical Rating and Critical Damage: Prioritize these on every eligible slot. Pushing Critical Damage over 1,000% allows Snipe to take massive chunks out of elite and boss health pools.
Ability Rate: Stack enough cooldown reduction to align Smoke Screen and Snipe availability with each new mob pull.
Movement Speed: Maximize movement speed on boots and pants to outpace aggressive melee enemies while gathering large packs.
