  I've considered a duellist Hunter with a 1lvl dip into monk to access the bonus hand attack and flurry of blows. Sounds quite good with hunter's mark.
  
  And it gives you more options in term of weapons since you can convert pretty much any non two handed weapon into a dext weapon (just don't get defensive duellist if you plan to get a non finesse weapon)

  Is it correct that Hunter has nothing but some HP at level 9?
