Gunslinger - Chaos Dungeon/Cube Build . Ranged DPS in general tend to have longer cooldowns on their interrupts, than Melee, so if theres something specific that needs repeated interrupting, a Melee DPS or tank will be assigned to it, though this doesnt mean you cant interrupt things as well. You can still use non-rotational abilities that are on the GCD even before its time for the Charged Burst grouping, though its less ideal since the gap will get moved for the next cycle to before Penetrating Rounds instead. Unfortunately, you cant really use this rotationally, so unless theres a phase where the entire group is only AoEing, its best to hold off on using it and see if other classes rotational AoE and DoT spread can take care of it or switch to Dirty Fighting or Saboteur if you know them so that you can do rotational AoE. Aside from damage #s its completely irrelevant what pistol im using with it. In PvE, this will generally only be used for specific mechanics since most things youd care about stunning are immune. Ive had an amazing time over the years and cant wait to see whats in store for the years to come. The 2 charges give you a lot more flexibility with your burst since you can save them up without losing sustained DPS until after you have both charges available. You can learn more about Legendary Items in SWTOR 7.0 from my dedicated guide. The reason for this is that you dont have to change the way you gear in order to benefit from the effect. I will not be writing out ability descriptions and I will only be transcribing the components of discipline passives that directly relate to the ability and rotation. It is essential that it is channeled on cooldown. Mixing all three bullet imbues with powerful dagger skills makes this build deadly at any range and able to control and disable enemies with repeated stuns and high burst damage. Stringing together attacks with the relatively low AP cost of pistol shots is the best way to deal maximum damage. In this video I showcase my Paladin Build featuring the unique sword called Brand. Refraction Point also has a very nice bonus, since it causes Penetrating Rounds to deal damage to multiple enemies and Penetrating Rounds applies the armor debuff, this tactical allows you to provide the armor debuff to multiple enemies at the same time, which is super rare. A strong Gunslinger build is all about VATS. When Burst Volley is available, you will not see a gap in that cycle since youll be using Burst Volley before you would observe it.

(Ranged/Energy/Direct/Single-Target/Casted)This is the weakest of your rotational abilities, though since youll be using it more than twice as often as your true heavy hitters, it still accounts for a considerable amount of your total damage output. Hunker Down also provides CC immunity. One final thing to note, you do not need bullets for this setup. Stay behind the boss and cause havoc. Its not the end of the world to use this ability for movement though since there isnt a lot of damage you can do when out of cover anyway, so sometimes you just have to give up the GCD. A lot of the time things are immune to being knocked back and when they arent immune, its better that theyre all grouped up to be killed as fast as possible. The teleporting animation is significantly longer for Hideout because theres an actual teleportation animation you have to do prior to teleporting but after pressing the button rather than Phase Walk where you just wave your hand and pop up somewhere else instantaneously. Trickshot has 2 procs that are relevant to your rotation: Recoil ControlFiring Charged Burst twice in a row, firing Quickdraw or Aimed Shot once, or completing a Penetrating Rounds channel now finishes the cooldown on Trickshot.

The Relic of Serendipitous Assault is generically good, but the Relic of Devastating Vengeance is better specifically for the Burst and Versatility Build. Peacemaker Gunslinger Guide for Lost Ark. The concept of this build is simple, Cannon Gun (58 dmg, 100 Impact, Confusion on hit) + shatter (1 iron scrap, no cooldown, Pain on hit), will increase your Opportunist Stab damage by x4, there is craftable dagger that deals a total of 40 dmg, 50 impact and Extreme Poison on hit, that should be around 150 to 250 damage with skills while buffed. This ability can also be used in the gap slot for some rotational AoE, though make sure at least one target gets hit by the entire thing. Since Defense Screen has such a short cooldown and is relatively weak, this ability wont really protect you from a whole lot on its own and its much better served just keeping your health high and mitigating minor spikes so that your health will be higher when the actual damage comes. (Yes, I know Arsenal also offers the armor debuff, but that spec is in such bad shape, I dont consider it to be fully functional at the moment). This means your average AoE RDT is only 20% compared to most other disciplines which have 100% uptime on 30% AoE RDT. It also has a full list of all currently available Legendary Implants for all classes. To be clear, Operative / Scoundrel DPS is by no means required and is not the only Combat Style that provides the DPS debuffs used by Sharpshooter, they are just the most efficient and allow greater flexibility in terms of what the other group members can bring. Thanks to the Agitating Energies tactical, this ability accounts for a gigantic proportion of your total damage output. This means that the cover bar isnt really useful anymore, so feel free to turn it off in the settings (User Interface > General > uncheck Enable Cover Bar).

With a bit of optimization the Gunslinger is easy to play and produces a reliable stream of damage against nearly any enemy. If a tank is out of defensive cooldowns and needs another its okay to use. Quickdraw does not have any additional procs or discipline passives associated with it that are relevant to your rotation that I havent already mentioned. It also makes Dexterity-based skills like Stealth a viable choice, allowing you to also serve as your party's Scout. Its still necessary to activate Cool Head ASAP if you find yourself below 45 Energy, but its less optimal to wait that long if you can help it. Right now, Sharpshooter is one of the best and most authentic specs in the game for solo content. Usually, the raid lead will tell you when they want it or a tank will ask for it, but if you see someone getting hit by a bunch of enemies, chuck this at them. In actual raids, youll probably need to apply it more often. From the perspective of the highest burst, the second option is best, though from my limited testing, I didnt see a noticeable difference between the two from the perspective of sustained DPS. How mana do you need? Unless theres a mechanic that prevents you from dealing damage or forces you to stop DPSing, you should not stop DPSing. There are three different combat modes for three different weapons. A lot of the time, adds just dont survive that long. If youre having to use Sweeping Gunfire consistently during the fight and there isnt a huge single-target DPS check, definitely use this tactical, but single-target DPS checks almost always take priority over AoE DPS checks.

The earlier you activate it, the earlier youll be able to activate it again.

Technically its okay to use this if you genuinely think you will die if you dont knock the enemies back right now, but honestly I think the better play is to just let yourself die and then throw a tantrum about why the tanks didnt keep the adds off of you and why you didnt get enough heals, though make sure youve used your threat drop and all your DCDs already. In case you arent familiar, pushback is when the progress of your cast is pushed back as a result of taking damage.
