- LUK: None
Gears & Cards
Headgears
- Top: Any Demi 35% reduction helm + SPICA Card (defensive staple)
- Top (Switch): Stormy Headphones ([SPICA]) – Lv.1 Storm Gust for breaking cloak
- Mid: Physical damage rare wings – +25% demi-human damage, +30% ACD (with fused kiel card)
- Low: Any Anti-stone + Anti-sleep aura ([Glorified Orc Hero]); rare version preferred (ie. Digital aura link or other similar auras)
- Low (Switch): Poring Rings of Balance or similar – +40% Desperado damage (use once you’re in range)
Armor
- Main: Exile Armor OL ([Demi Freya Card])
- Switch: Divine Aegis ([Demi Freya Card]) – for higher HP and survivability
- Shadow Gear: Ragnarok Shirt – gives Gunslinger sprite faster Desperado spam than Rebellion sprite
Weapon
- Main Hand: +10 Peacemaker ([NOX + Fused Dracula + Schulang + Fused Atroce]) – Ideally unbreakable enchant. – Replace 1x Schulang/Fused Atroce with [Fallen Valkyrie Card] for unbreakable effect. – Alternative: Replace with Broken Thanatos Card for lifesteal + DEF piercing (if using this, swap Faceworm Queen card in boots since it does not stack with Thana).
Shield
- Shield: +8–10 Demi Freya Shield ([Hades Card])
Garment
- Main: +10 Protector’s Guard / Daehyon ([Juncea])
- Attack Option: Lv.10 Brewmaster ([Sakray or Juncea]) – for more damage + lifesteal
- Defensive Option: +10 Protector’s Guard / Daehyon ([Cautious Howard])
- Budget: Asprika (non-slotted)
Shoes
- Shoes: +10 Modified Temporal STR Boots ([Faceworm Queen Card]) – Switch to Furious Seyren if using Thana weapon variant.
Accessories
- Accessory 1: Warborn Sigil ([Gem of Desperado or Fused Ifrit]) – Battleforged reward (~500 BG games)
- Accessory 2: Arctic Seal ([Pneuma Gem / Fused Ifrit]) – Battleforged reward (~500 BG games)
- Notes: – Without 500 BG games, Arctic Seal leaves you vulnerable to Freeze → compensate with Divine Aegis. – Revolver Buffalo + Shotgun Buffalo combo = more lifesteal. – Double Fused Ifrit = stronger Rapid Shower focus.
Skills
- [Rapid Shower] – Primary ranged DPS skill.
- [Desperado] – Main melee-range skill, bypasses Pneuma; also effective for portal defense or choke-point control.
- [Cloak] – so you can move and escape and also get closer to enemies
- [Storm Gust] – Switch to storm Gust Helm to use SG to break cloak
- [Magnum Break] – From Schulang Card; use before engagement for +20% damage boost.
- [Flip Coin + Increased Accuracy] – Extra HIT for better Rapid Shower/Desperado accuracy.
- [Disarm] – Use with Peacemaker Revolver (Elite). Great against enemies lacking FCP or recently who died so they probably have no FCP.
- [HSS: Revitalize] – Use for extra healing, can be obtained through HSS skill scroll
Playstyle
- Leverage hybrid flexibility: stay backline for Rapid Shower, then switch to Desperado if enemies cast Pneuma or push close.
- Position carefully—Desperado requires committing into melee range. Use Cloak to approach safely. Dont forget to switch to poring ring of balance aura
- Start with Holy Bullet; if it misses (no Pneuma present), switch to Shadow Bullet. Misses may also indicate high Flee.
- Use Storm Gust helm to reveal cloaked enemies, then return to your main helm quickly.
- Defensive Switch: When cornered/trapped, swap to tank gear: Divine Aegis + Demi Freya Card, +10 Protector’s Guard + Cautious Howard, +8 Temporal VIT Boots (Miguel/Infernal Horn), 35% demi-human reduction helm, Anti-Stone/Sleep lower, Arctic Seal (Pneuma Gem).
