Hunters are fun to play with. They turn slowly, so you can literally run circles around them. If you get behind him he almost always turns left because that's his meleeing side. Run in a tight right circle around him and he can't catch up to you and you can beat him down with impunity.
Plasma weapons do work but they're slow, only burning the surface of his armour or gelatinous form. You end up draining an entire plasma rifle to take one down. It's been a long time since I've used my plasmas on a hunter. If you're using the plasma pistol, don't use the overcharge. It's a waste of battery, it always is when your opponent has no shield. Hunters have a lot of health and doing one extra bar of damage means nothing when you waste a huge percentage of batter on it.
