Gunslinger

  Hey would you think ranking up close combat skills that raise str first before ranking gunslinger? or should i just start ranking gunslinger off the bat?

  I suggest you rank up warrior skills first. o -o gunner is really really weak without the stats, and terrible at killing anything that has lots of hp. Well in the beginning anyways. Also better to have a class you can rely on for those mobs w/ range/magic stander, ya'know like zombie.

  Suggested you rank STR and INT Based skills for your gunslinger skills to do worthwhile damage. Since its a Hyrbid set, you need to work twice as hard to be great in it.

  Result of high-end stats with low dual gun skill ranks:

  Because everyone fights Brown Dire Wolf Cubs. [S]Instead, everyone fights Mutant Rabbits with Rank 1 Flash Launcher with Step 4 R Dowras with 321~453 Damage range[/S]

  Pretty much guns are a nice hybridization for players who have already put a decent amount of effort into their int/ str or and/or have pro as shit dmg gear/ reforges. The three main attractions are shooting rush and bullet storm for AoE damage and Way of the gun for taking bosses down. Melee imo has a lot more to offer a newer player considering guns should be picked up late game and never off the bat. [S]Unless you're kinsoo [/S]

  What is this supposed to imply?

  To put it in perspective, gunner is more end game than puppetry. The amount of ap required for magic skills is pretty absurd, and you also need some str to back up gunner stats too.
  
  For the most part mages would have more int than str. If you want to do gunner I highly suggest starting off warrior to gain some str. Then rank bolts and Musical Knowledge/Composition for some easy Int. Get a combination of Str/Int so you can reach +1000 stat easily.
  
  Then gunner will be useable in Int and Adv missions. 1000 stats is not enough for Hardmode or elite.
  
  Also keep in mind max damage enchants helps gunner a lot.
  
  If you're choosing a gun to start off with, i recommend Dowras. They have higher clip than Taunes, and shoot fast. If you don't have attack speed set go for Automatic for Suffix on Guns.
  
  Gunner is meant to hybrid with other talents, and it's very good at it.

  Personally I wouldn't recommend going gunner until you have a combination of 1500 strength/intelligence. If you want to go against my advice then feel free to; it's a game and you might as well do whatever you feel like doing, just know that it might be a bit more unpleasant and/or difficult.

  That depends on how you view 5k damage as.
  
  I don't see 5k as a remotely high digit, but that depends on people.

  I see 5k~ as pretty high, without hax reforges and enchants, and maybe not Climactic Crash. How many people can even hit that much?

  You're probably just boasting your superiority. I can hit 9.6k with master flash launcher (no title), 1.3k combined str and int, and unenchanted/unhaxreforged Black Stars. Though you're coming pretty damn close despite the skill rank gap...
  
  Anyway, my point is high end str and int makes a huge difference than Gunslinger skills alone.
