  • 1–9,999,999 credits: Shows player name and bounty amount only.

:paperclip: Additional Notes

  • Your bounty credits are immediately deducted from your Elemental Bank (EB).
  • If successful, the bounty is automatically transferred to the bounty hunter.
  • High bounties increase the likelihood of the target being hunted.
  • Track players via HWS Connect’s Online Players feature — includes sound alerts.

:dna: How Guilt Works

What is Guilt?

When you commit crimes or engage in chaos, you’re labeled Guilty. Once Guilty:

  • Your name appears on the Hunter Board (even if you’re offline).
  • Hunters can track and eliminate you for fame and rewards.
  • Guilt adds consequences and deeper immersion into HWS roleplay.

Check your Origin to understand specific penalties and bonuses.


Hunter Board Rules

  • Guilty players are listed with playfield info on HWS Connect.
  • You can earn up to 10 rewards per day for killing Guilty players.
  • You must possess the correct Origin Epic/Enhanced Weapon to gain HWS DNA.
  • The board updates every minute and is exclusive to HWS Connect.
  • Manual fire only triggers the system — no automated turret kills.
  • Killing the same player repeatedly yields 1 HWS DNA bonus/day max.
  • Guilty players are denied access to PvE playfields.
  • Becoming Guilty causes an immediate loss of 5 HWS DNA.
