Potent aoe.... try ER with 2x damage and tell me what's potent aoe

2x damage makes TMG > all other gunner weapons

This is basically the same as if hunter stance and ups and ja boosts ONLY worked with a sword

Who would use Partisan and Wired lance?

Well then this is the same exact thing , a 2x damage bonus to a weapon I think it kinda sides the balance fully to their side

Even at double damage, ER is not AoE, and will not compete with well placed ABs.

I kinda agree with you but GS still has it's place and is definitely my weapon of choice during PSE bursts when you have AB on it. That combined with killing bonus is awesome.

I LOVE Heel Stomp. Heel Stomp>Reverse Tap>Bullet Squall is such fun with mobs.

the last 3 hits doubled kill most aq mobs easily

on burst gunlash ? don't want to help the party with RT + SA/BS?

Again go ra/hu if you want to use gunlash , I think those 3 new skill define a different kind of class for gunner

[Narrillnezzurh]

RT, SA, and BS have a far smaller range than AB, and it doesn't matter what ER's last three hits do, by the time you get to them you could've had three full ABs.

Again go ra/hu if you want to use gunlash , I think those 3 new skill define a different kind of class for gunner

Must you think in black and white?

[kabutozero]

whatever , keep subbing RA and slave gunner for WB'S , I'll play a class that does damage , tyvm , leaving this thread

Not really, doesn't seem like a lot of point fighting for the mobs affection when there's a Force in the party that's spamming Zondeel.

[UnLucky]

Well it makes sense, the SRoll doubles your TMG damage, but it's not exactly spammable since you need to dodge after every attack.

A gunslash on Gunner is going to be weaker than a Ra/Hu no matter what, but if TMGs can't be used in every situation then AB is still a good choice. And besides, Gunners can equip good rifles naturally, so WB is an obvious thing to take.

[Bellion]

I can only see Stylish JA being good on bosses or mobs with high hp. Addition Bullet is still the better choice on weaker mobs. Why is that? Addition Bullet can hit multiple heads for a x2 headshot multiplier damage. Elder Rebellion at most can only hit one head for the first 6 shots. Also, not many players seem to manually aim their Elder Rebellions on the heads of the weaker mobs and only get body shots.
By the time you finish one Elder Rebellion, someone else can get 2-3 Addition Bullets off and wipe off most mobs. There are exceptions where Addition Bullets can't get weakpoint/headshot damage easily.

Also, more Gunners not being team players, I see.

Exactly. I personally love not being a selfish Gunner.
