New Character Classes: Gunslinger

The Gunslinger is a new expanded class available for players to chose from beginning with episode 10.4: Hugel. Gunslingers, as the name suggest, specialize in wielding a wide variety of guns and weapons, masters of ranged combat.

Gunslingers change class directly from Novice once you hit Job 10. Unlike most classes in RO, they do not have an advanced form. To make up for this, Gunslingers have a different job experience requirement, and reach max job level at Job 70. While this one class role may seem restrictive, the different types of skills and weapons you can specialize in will make you different from those gunslingers around you.

Gunslinger Details

Gunslingers have two different kinds of skills, 'Coin' skills and 'Gun' skills. Coin skills are usable with any weapon (even unarmed), and all require a certain number of gold coins to activate and use. Gold coins can be collected by using the skill 'Flip the Coin'. Gun skills are different as they are either passive or active skills that affect performance with only one or a specific group of weapons.

The following is information about specific weapons that gunslingers have at thier disposal.
All types of guns deal full damage against all three sizes of targets.

While Gunslingers share the same faults as other ranged attack classes as they are vulnerable to damage, thier HP mod is not so bad. Thier HP and SP modifiers grow unusually, starting off slowly but increasing with higher levels. At level 99 with no stats Gunslingers will have about 4510 HP (just under rogue/hunter), and 456 SP (just under that of Monk). Thier base weight limit is 2800, and increased by 30 times thier base strength.

Like hunters with bow attacks, gunslingers do not have thier attack boosted by skills that boost attack speed, such as advanced andrenaline rush. Because of thier coins, gunslingers cannot gain or recieve spirit spheres from any skill or item. Gunslingers can use all 3 types of attack speed potion, given they hit the required level to use them.

Gunslingers, like all other expanded jobs, cannot be adopted or rebirth. There is no restrictions on marrage though.

Equipment Restrictions

Gunslingers like other classes are restricted in the type of gears which they can equip. The following is a comprehensive list of different gears that you can use. Of course, be careful that you meet the minimum level requirements as well of equipment you wish to use. Gunslinger Job Change Quest

In order to become a Gunslinger, you must be a novice at job level 10. A short quest is required before you will be able to change jobs.
  1. Make your way to the Gunslinger guild in the city of Einbroch. The guild is located under the Einbroch Tower in the middle of the city with the entrance on the left side (location is 134, 199).
  2. Fill out the application to become a gunslinger. He will ask you to go to Payon.
  3. In Payon, in the 5 o' clock direction, you'll find Fansole.
  4. Fansole will ask you for some random items. Depending on your base level the items he asks you to bring may be different. He may ask you to bring some or all of the following: 10 Scell, 3 Fluff, 1 Trunk, 3 Zargon, 3 Green Herbs, 3 Rainbow Shells.
  5. Give the items he requested, and you'll also need to give him 1 milk.
  6. Return to the Einbroch Gunslinger Guild. Talk to the guild master, and he will change you into a gunslinger.
Gunslinger Ammunition

When attacking with a firearm, the attack power and element of the bullet you're firing are added to the base attack of the weapon. This element can be overwritten by elemental endows however. In addition to this, many types of ammunition have additional effects that can be caused against the target.

There are two types of ammunition. The main type, bullets, are used by the main guns Handgun, Rifle, Shotgun and Gatling Gun. Bullets can be purchased from an NPC in the gunslinger guild, and can be discounted. The other kind, spheres, are used to power the shots of Grenade Launchers. To get spheres you will have to manufacture them by gathering certain items.

An NPC in the gunslinger can make bullet cases for you. Bullet cases are similar to arrow quivers. They contain 500 bullets or spheres, and weigh 25 for regular bullet cases and 35 for sphere cases. You can make any number of cases you want by bringing the bullets you want to box up to a gunslinger guild NPC, for a handling fee of 500z per case.

The following is a list of different types of bullets and spheres.

From 36 to 50, the rate jumps to one half that of second class characters plus that of first class characters. From 51 to 70, the experience required follows a custom formula.
