In addition, the Huntsman can headshot enemies at any charge and any range, dealing 150 damage uncharged and 360 damage fully charged. The headshot hitbox is different from that of the [[Sniper Rifle]] and [[Hunting Revolver]], meaning that headshots can succeed or fail in non-intuitive ways. The user can also cancel the charge by pressing the alternative fire key, causing the Sniper to lower his bow, not firing his arrow, and delay his next shot. Switching weapons will also cancel the charge without firing the arrow. If the user charges for more than five seconds, their charge meter will turn red, and their current shot will become extremely inaccurate when fired.

The Huntsman arrow can be lit on fire by a friendly [[Pyro]]'s [[Flame Thrower]], certain map geometry like the torches on [[DeGroot Keep]], or if it travels through the flames of either an allied or enemy Pyro. Impacted enemies will suffer [[afterburn]], lasting for 10 seconds and dealing 3 damage every 0.5 seconds for a total of 60 damage. The arrows are not affected by water and will remain on fire even while the user is underwater. This means that a fire arrow shot by an underwater Sniper can set an above-ground enemy on fire. Enemies that are underwater will not suffer afterburn at all. In any case, the friendly Pyro will not receive assist credit for the kill, and the Sniper will receive full credit.

The Huntsman has the Arrow Stab kill taunt, in which the Sniper will twirl an arrow with his hand, stab it into the first enemy in front of his crosshair (vertically and horizontally), then pull it out. Doing this will stun the enemy (including invulnerable enemies) and deal 1 damage on the stab, then deal 500 damage to them on the pullout. The pullout and stab are separate actions, meaning an enemy can get stunned without dying, or die without being stunned. The taunt effect extends significantly beyond the animation's apparent range. The user's crosshair position influences where the taunt will stab, meaning they can hit an enemy above or below them, even though the animation always faces forwards. The taunt will not penetrate multiple enemies, and will not damage buildings. If the arrow is on fire, it will not cause afterburn, or even a flaming corpse. It also cannot deal [[critical]] hits, but it can deal mini-crits. Unlike in Team Fortress 2, taunting with an arrow charged will fire the arrow before taunting.
