Best Setup for Doom Hunter Ship Class in High Seas Hero (Post May 2025 Update)

When building your Doom Hunter ship in High Seas Heroes, you have a lot to consider – mainly the active and passive class skills and how they work with the different weapons, heroes and frigates in the game to make sure you perform the best way possible.This class is the entry for the combo archetype ship classes. Basically dealing a lot of basic attacks that have the chance to either deal additional damage, crit or trigger more additional attacks to deal constantly a lot of damage

Important! Please mind that all ship (classes) in High Seas Hero have very individual playstyles and while none of them is better thant he other, they require very different ways to build them. If you’re not sure which one will fit you or you’re not that happy with the ship you chose, make sure to check out my guide about the ship classes in High Seas Hero here to pick the ship class that will fit your preferences and then use my guides to build them. You also find progressed builds for all ships linked there, absolutely the core of guides for High Seas Hero.

Forget all the ‘this is the best ship to pick’ guides out there – every ship class is equally strong in High Seas Hero, but they all work differently how they encounter enemies so building them with the right weapons, heroes and frigattes is absolutely essential – and this is what this guide is all about

Best Equipment Traits for your Doom Hunter Ship in High Seas Hero

When forging equipment, it’s important that you choose the one with the higher stats – but as soon as you leave the first rarities, you will get gear that has some extra traits on it and they HAVE TO fit your ship class skills.

With the Doom Hunter class you should always look out for those traits:

Combo Rate
Combo RateBest
Crit Rate
Crit RateOptional

Since the devs literally changed the whole mechnaics we needed to test everything from scratch. Also please be aware that skill damage and skill crit damage for whatever reason is not working correctly right now and will be fixed soon. This means some builds can give funky results for you but that should be back to normal in the next hotfix or so.

Best Weapons for your Doom Hunter Ship Class

From the available weapons these are the best ones to pick:

Ideally pick Dark Iris Tracker, Ether Interceptor, Odins Whisper, Laser Railgun and Luminous Barrier. If you don’t have them you can see the alterntives above that you can swap in. Also if you have the alterntives at least 15 levels highter, they might be worth using.

NEVER EVER use Quick Equipt! It will only use the highest rarity/level weapons and not mind any of the synergies, ship skills or any other aspects of your build!!!

Best Heroes for your Doom Hunter Ship Class

From the available heroes these are the best ones to pick:

Ideally pick Iron General, Rose Clamp, Obsidian Trekker, Fashionista and Firefighter. If you don’t have them you can see the alterntives above that you can swap in. Also if you have the alterntives at least 15 levels highter, they might be worth using.

NEVER EVER use Quick Equipt! It will only use the highest rarity/level heroes and not mind any of the synergies, ship skills or any other aspects of your build!!!

Best Frigates for your Doom Hunter Ship Class

Frigates are nothing to mind at this stage for you.

Best Intel (Stats) for your Doom Hunter Ship Class

At this point you will not have to think all too much about your intel. Primarily you want to increase your Intel Center Level to Level 4 to be able to actually get S-Rank intel. If you pick up some B-Tier or higher intel of Combo DMG or Global ATK you can keep it. Luckily this won’t affect your progress in raising your Intel Level when you lock slots like it does in other similar games. TLDR is get your Intel Center to Level 4 and keep suitable B-Rank or higher intel but you will replace them later anyway.

Best Navigation for your Doom Hunter Ship Class

Navigation is not really that important here for you since it is unlikely that it will be available until you upgrade to a succession ship class

Best Drone(s) for your Doom Hunter Ship Class

Continue using the Guardian of Magnetron here until you have access to the Mad Bee, which is the best drone for you.

Best Treasures for your Doom Hunter Ship Class

From the available treasures, this is the ideal lineup:

Best Super Chips for your Doom Hunter Ship Class

Super Chips are nothing to mind at your level here.

Conclusion

I hope this guide helps you optimizing your build in High Seas Hero and progress faster. I know that with all the different weapons and hero choices, one can feel a little lost sometimes, so please if you have any questions just post a comment below and I will be happy to help.

  1. Hi, Thanks for your post, help a lot. Some questions: why there’s a X in high lvl treasures?(Equip something is best than nothing, or no?) and same in weapon 5ft slot.
