first time playing RO need help build Gunslinger

[dokebi]

Hello all, this is my first time playing RO. I play in iRO chaos server.

I have been researching which class to play and gunslinger seems like very fun class to play.
I heard you can't reset your pts once you put in, unless you pay yhe real money...
I hate to replay my character because I raised the wrong stats and skills. I wouldn't mind learning from my mistake and replay the class, but my play time is very limited and I would like to reach high lvl and play the end game.

That being said, I need help from Veterans of RO. What is a good build for gunslinger and which skill pts should I put in and in what order? Mostly for PVM. 
Wielding dual gun looks very cool, but is it good as the looks? Should I go for shotgun?

Thanks in advance. Hope to play with you all in RO!

I've seen alot of people just saying "What card is good for x class plz reply!" or "How do i kill X?", so i've made a mini guide for those who don't know how to ask for help, since custom items, drop rates (MvP Cards in low-rate servers are extremely rare), and etc can differ, these are some of the things you need to specify (some are optinal)

1) Job Class (We aren't psychics)
2) Build (Specify, many classes tend to have over three builds)
3) Item Rate (Likewise, you are not going to see Full +10 MvP Carded Equipment players on a LR)
4) For What (PvM,PvP,MvP,WoE)
5) Against What (Specify the classes or mobs that you are going against)
6) Custom Items (1337 Wing can give +10 Allstat in a server and give +400 Allstat in another)
7) Other Customizations (Some admins can meddle with skills and items)
Max Level,Stats and rates ( Yeah...)

Anyway, follow these steps and do not use "plz,pls,plx" or another form of internet abbreviation as it irks some people, also try to use the Search Feature before asking or look at here: http://write.ratemyserver.net/

If you don't find a guide that fits your need then use the above format and ask your question and some members would be glad to answer.

- What are the server Rates
- Custom items

etc..

Hey thanks for the reply, but I am sorry I don't understand the half of the things you mentioned or quoted from someone...

what do you mean by server rates? Like I mentioned above, I am playing In iRO chaos server...are there more servers that has the same name as iRO chaos server? I only saw Iris, Loki, and Chaos servers that I can play on...Max lvl in iRO servers are lvl 99.

also I think I answered like half of the quote you wrote...like I am going for gunslinger, dual gun or shot gun depending on experience from the veteran players, it's for PvM.

If there is any veteran RO player who can help me.

Thanks.

A little help with terminology

rates-how fast you gain base exp/jobexp/item drop compared to kRO (and some iRo servers, I think some have a bit increased rates).
customs-items that are available on server but not on kRO/iRO
max level, stats etc...some, mostly mid and higher rates (take a look around and you will see what does it mean) increase these, normally max stat is 99 and so is base level. iRO sticks to kRO, so there is no problem with that for you.
Limited play time and you don't like to pay for playing? It's your choice, but I think iRO is not for you. There's a whole world of private servers, and most of them are free to play.

Now let's get to GS. It's a fun to play class, but it's really only for fun. It's no match for normal rebirth classes. If you wanna have some fun and don't want to compete with other people, it's ok for you. But most MMORPGs are sooner or later about PvP and such stuff, and GS is not the best for this.
Most used builds are revolver and shotgun ones. In every case, you need to have dex rounded to multiplies of 10 including equip, and as high as possible. Then there are two possibilities, agi and vit build, just get it to max, and those few remaining stat points will go to int. Agi is pure PvM, and I wouldn't recommend even entering PvP or WoE with it. Vit builds are meant for PvP a bit too, and are based around smart using of your skills.
Revolver builds aim for Desperade and Rapid Shower as their main skills, shotguns go for shotgun frenzy.
I won't give you exact stats, use simulator at ro.doddlercon.com/db/calc/ to make the build yourself depending on equip you can get. For skills, use skill simulator athttp://ratemyserver.net/skill_sim.php.

They will be better able to assist you.

I heard you can't reset your pts once you put in, unless you pay yhe real money...

There is a FREE skill reset NPC in Prontera, just outside the Toolshop. But you have to be base 40 and below. If you are above base 40, you need to use a Neutralizer to reset skills. For stat reset; more restrictions are applied and it also cost more.

I think it will be hard for you since you are new at this. Gunslingers are known as Extended Class, they are not a class most people (including Gravity) takes seriously. Your initial problem will be finding zeny to buy lots of bullets. Then you will notice that your SP pool is considerably smaller than others - thus requiring SP healing items. However, Gunslingers do have an abnormally high damage output for a Non-Trans class.

i don't see why he can't help here him?

For starters, you got iRO Chaos rates wrong! It's not X1. And most private servers have not fully implemented Battleground gears which are really nice for GS from what I heard. So, lets just say we are either "out of touch" or it's beyond our expertise.

Thanks all for the advice and especially to JJJ for links to the builds. 

I became gunslinger and loved monsters die before they can hit me. Kiting is always fun, but since I was hunting at where monsters doesn't attack me unless I attack them(poporing island), so kiting might be hard in the future where monsters are aggressive...Later on with GS, do you just take the hits and spam health potions while shooting or do you keep on kite them? I am putting every stats into DEX at the moment, but is it better to put some into VIT and maybe to INT before maxing out DEX?

Thanks all again. Happy hunting.



p.s-I just killed master poring!!! That thing was huge with porings following him!!! I kited that thing and popped it.

Later on you will depend alot of the Desperado skill, it's a very powerful one.


Also, when you start mixing around with different builds/weapons, you should know the different grenades are really powerful when used right.

[ragnadiktus]

I'd suggest VIT-INT-DEX...

STR - needed for decent weight
AGI - not really needed cuz GS class has low attack and ASPD compared to their bow counterparts...
VIT - everyone needs some HP...GS has low HP anyway but you could atleast get some DEF
INT - Skill spamming...Use your super high DMG skills to your advantage
DEX - Attack and Hit...
LUK - As said earlier...you'll be spamming skills rather than simply attacking....

I also suggest using Revolver as main weapon due to its many skills and bring a shotgun along if you'd like for damage purposes...

For skills...I'd choose:

Coin flip 5
Last stand 1
GS panic 1
Increase Accuracy 1
Single action 10
Snake eyes 10
Disarm 5
Bullet shower 10
Desperado 10
Cracker 1
Crowd control 10
Full blast 10
Spread attack 5

Hope I helped...XD

I really wouldn't put in STR ,as topic creator is playing a 99/70 server, and wtf at no agi, my build for Hunters/Gunslingers is usually 99 Dex, 99 Agi and the rest in either INT or LUK, my fave weapon for GS is usually a gatling gun for it's high attack speed,

[horo]

Gunslinger don't need agi because they'll only ever use Desperado for anything. Max dex, High vit (total of 80 would be great for WoE, but 40 or 60 would be fine otherwise) and at least 30+12 int, which should help with sp recovery coupled with appropiate gear. I recommend posting/browing on the irowiki forums, as they're far more knowledgeable than a private server forum such as this, and there might be equip specific to your server like the battleground stuff.

STR : For carrying stuff...bullets, SP pots, equip switching, etc...
AGI : I dont think GS need AGI cuz they pale in comparison to hunter's ASPD and base attack...
LUK : You've got suuuuuuuuper powerful skills...why crit?
Gatling Gun : Yes...high ASPD...but very very low damage...XD

Bullets aren't that heavy, unless you are carring 30000 of each, and wtf are you getting at comparing a GS and hunter's ASPD? And wtf at gatling gun being low at damage? Get a good 99 DEX and AGI Crit-Based gunslinger and give him a gatling gun, Topic creator is saying he plays on a x1.25/x1.25/x1.25 Server without healer or anything plus, this is his first job, so SP Pots are pretty much out of the question for now,  Gunslingers do have high modifier skills but they however have very good buffs, Desperado sucks in comparision of a DPS agi-gatling gun Gunslinger, plus, long-range is pretty much one of the gunslinger's best weapons, Desperado is only good when you are being mobbed (With nowaday's mobs with high difficulty and good rewards really outdo mobbing), DPS Agi-Based GS are also good because there are no healers on officials, that means no sp-healing or anything like that.
