As we’ve stated before, the most popular builds came from two class engravings for Gunslinger: Peacekeeper and Hunting Time. There are many substantial differences between the two, so it’s best to explain it further right now.
Peacekeeper build is the most common build there is. You can use different weapons to slam an unwary foe with a quick aim rifle shot or back attack with a shotgun. Close range gameplay can deal damage, but thanks to the excellent mobility of the Gunslinger, you can get out of the tight spot in a matter of seconds!
Peacekeeper build mostly relies on shotguns. You get an attack speed increase to pistols, cit chance to shotguns and it increases the damage on your sniper rifle.
The second one is Hunting Time Build which removes the shotgun, focusing on the rifle and pistols.
Hunting Time, on the other hand, makes your shotgun essentially useless, but it grants you a 30% crit chance increase on your sniper and pistol. Pick what you like and let’s go to the next one!
You will also need some engravings that will increase your damage output. For that, use Grudge that increases the damage dealt to bosses. You will also receive more damage so be aware of that.
The other one you’ll probably like is Precise Dagger engraving. It increases the crit damage, and you are all about that critical, we can’t deny that. It pairs best with Peacekeeper built, because your Hunting Time crits are already very high.
You can also get some Cursed Doll to increase your attack power. Adrenaline is another one you should utilize. It’s best for increasing your damage. The same goes for Keen Blunt Weapon if you need some bonus crit chance, but it can also decrease your attacks by 20%.
You may need some Heavy Armoring as well to increase your defense by 20/50/100 % depending on the Engraving’s level. Or - just be good at dodging.

Utilize what you can. Whether you want some incoming healing, cover some weakness exposure, or just make those damn debuffs disappear - gems are your game! They give you different buffs, they’re great at reducing incoming damage or increasing your AoE damage output!
Gems give your character a power boost, increasing your damage or cooldown. You need to attach them to a certain skill so they could work. You can only have one damage and cooldown gem for a skill.
In this case - try to use them for greater damage with some attack speed bonus on the side. It may not seem like the best idea, but trust us - you will be pleased with the results.
Thank you for going over some guns-slinging action! There are many incredible mechanics in this game. Switch between three equipped weapons and discover a world full of boss fight and, well, gunslingers.
