Lost Ark Gunslinger PvP Guide: Stats, Skills, And Builds

by | Last updated Feb 1, 2024

Welcome to our Lost Ark Gunslinger PvP guide! We’ll cover everything you need to know about playing the class in PvP content. 

Gunslinger is a top tier PvP pick, featuring high damage and high mobility, as well as a good amount of disruption. The class can absolutely carry matches in the right hands, but does have a high skill cap due to its complicated toolkit, especially its mechanic of switching weapons. That being said, it’s a great pick for anyone who wants to dance around the arena doing tonnes of damage. 

Best Gunslinger PvP Stats

  • 750 Swiftness
  • 249 Domination
  • 1 Crit

The Gunslinger follows a standard PvP stat split. It’s vital to cap out Swiftness for movement and attack speed, as well as the cooldown reduction. This is then followed by Domination for increased damage and one optional point in Crit to gain the ability to critically strike. 

Gunslinger PvP Skill Build and Tripods

The Gunslinger has a range of useful skills in PvP, so you can feel free to experiment with builds to see what you like and what works for your playstyle. That being said, there are a lot of strong abilities that should be included in most builds. We’ve put together a general build that works well as an all-rounder for PvP.

This build features a lot of key Gunslinger abilities. You have Last Request, Catastrophe, and Perfect Shot as your main damage tools. Then, there’s a range of crowd control skills like Quick Shot, AT02 Grenade, Aimed Shot, and much more. Make sure to use High-Caliber HE Bullet as your Awakening skill. With Gunslinger, it’s important to get practice time in and get used to switching around your weapons and handling all the skills.
