Tactics[]

Solo Play[]

A gunslinger should always try to stay at ranged, this can be done in two easy ways

- building Jump will allow you to hover over melee enemies whilst raining bullets downwards (at the cost of halting Energy Regeneration*, try to use Charged Shot and Blast Jump before starting to jump for more offensive energy use).

*Energy cost for blast jumping is VERY LOW, if using this strategy don't worry about it.

- building a platform unreachable by melee enemies, this gives you more offensive energy use than jumping but is impractical against certain enemies (such as Dark Mushroom Men, who will knock you off and place a damaging area of effect on the platform)

Against non-boss mobs try to initiate with a manually Charged Shot and follow up with a Lucky Shot Charged shot as soon as possible, if appropriately geared this should kill most enemies before they reach you, if they do still reach you then follow up with a Blast Jump

-Also when using the ultimate move circle around your enemy, making it easy to blast jump the out of existence.

The ☀Lunar Lancer subclass mixed with the ultimate can make a machine gun like effect that keep the enemies back and do a lot of damage all at once

Beware of:

• Ranged enemies - focus these down whilst using vertical movement to deal with melee enemies

• Teleporting bosses - jumping ensures a boss will immediately fall when it teleports to you. If using a platform as a safezone then make sure you stand right on the edge, (the boss teleports directly to the front of players) reducing the chance of them getting a foothold on your platform

• Spinners - Most spinning enemies (such as beetles and power plants) gain a damage reduction effect whilst spinning, hold off using any damage burst abilities until they stop, or use the time they are spinning to manually charge up a shot

• Dark Mushroom Men/Lava Crabs - debatably the most dangerous ranged enemies, try jumping from side to side in the air to dodge the projectile

• Teleporting bosses - try to stay close to them (but either to their back or just out of their range), this will prevent allies (especially Knight, Dracolyte and Neon Ninja) from losing damage time after it teleports

Teamplay[]

Whilst staying at range is still fairly important, try not to stay at max possible range as:

- bullet travel time is reduced, meaning you lose less hits when an enemy suddenly changes position (either by aggro change or knockback)

- will allow allies to kill enemies aggroed on you much easier

If you gain aggro then utilise vertical movement (Blast Jump or normal jumping) to hold the enemy in place below you; letting allies pick them off easily

Gunslingers can benefit from the Candy Barbarian rage gumdrop to increase their attack speed greatly, even if they have a class gem equipped their ultimate attack speed will increase, so try to time your ult with their cone to achieve max damage.
