Best Lost Ark Gunslinger builds: Best skills for PVP & PVE

Wondering what the best build is for the Gunslinger in Lost Ark? Here’s all the skills you’ll need to slay Arkesia’s demons as the fearsome Gunner.

While the classic Mage and Warrior may be more up your alleyway, Lost Ark‘s Gunner class offers a blend of high damage DPS and fast-paced combat that is the perfect balance of all things powerful.

Split into four different Advanced Classes, the Gunslinger channels classical Western film tropes to slay her opponents with three different guns: dual pistols, a shotgun, and a sniper. Blending these different guns together to create smooth combos is one thing, but having the right build will underpin your success.

So, here are the best builds for Lost Ark’s rootin’ tootin’ Gunslinger to help you dominate the game‘s PvE and PvP spheres.

Artillerist, Deadeye, Gunslinger, or Sharpshooter?

While Gunner is made up of four different Advanced Classes, the Deadeye and Gunslinger are perhaps the most difficult to fully master.

While the Artillerist is better for players who prefer to do high damage at a slow pace, the Deadeye and Gunslinger are much more suited to Assassin-style players. However, both wield three different weapon types, making them harder to play than the Sharpshooter, but in many ways more rewarding.

If you prefer faster-paced combat we’d recommend the Gunslinger, as her nimble fingers and fast feet make her harder to pin down. For those who are willing to sacrifice a little bit of speed, the Deadeye is for you.

Additionally, as the classes are gender locked you may just want to play as a woman, or as a man. The two classes are similar enough that you’ll get a similar experience, just a different in-game appearance.
