tbh i dont think salv or nm make that much diff at all. If you play gs you are most definitely playing out of love and game experience, because gs loses out in dmg to most of the top tier burst classes either way.
One thing might be helpful to a beginner though, pay attention to how you feel on various levels of swiftness. You can test them in the playground. As a beginner you can opt for more swiftness, but its difficult to efficiently rotate thru all your skills if your swiftness is too high, or the pressure to spam skills might lead you into reckless playstyle. Later on with more experience you should opt to reinvest your swiftness points elsewhere. Perhaps crafting a build that allows for modular changes like such is something worth trying.
basicly now you go PM lvl 3 as the rework gives you extra shotgun damage. as set its best to go salvation in my opinion as it has very good damage and gives attack speed. NIghtmare is anoying asf because you need to use awakening skill to activate it. This is not likely on a gs but if you drop under 30%mp you lose all your damage. i dont recommend using it. also you need the attack speed to quickly use your stagger skills during stagger check or burst damage.
Most gunslinger pm focus high crit mid spec. think of like 1200/700. You can chose to go swiftness but it has lower damage potential. if you want swiftness its better to go time to hunt and go full spec/swift build.
so… 1.7% more dmg on nightmare. considering i put more swift into nightmare for QoL it is less again… 500 spec is 10% more dmg on rifle skills (i tested with target down) so theoretically crit/spec NM is best, but dogpoop to play and u need high CDR gems to compensate the missing swiftness AND if you end up in boundless mana u miss out a lot of dmg. so for me i stick to salvation crit/spec bc I think i have a better uptime.
what ??? not at all everyone is switching to peacemaker 3 because it deal the most damage now with shotgun rapid fire . If you have a 9/7 you go peacemaker 1 .
Swift is outdated crap, even with lvl5 gems crit spec out dps swift. Also cdr gems are not as valuable as dps, lvl9 dps gem in any skill will give more dps than lvl9 cd gem on same skill.
Again clueless, just open Loawa and check yourself idiot, it is not that hard.
What people understand? is there any article where people announced ? or even half the KR playing salvation? any proof? Stop talking from your ass, you can do simple calculations and can tell NM have more raw damage and you don’t even have to test and GS don’t need move/attack speed to run NM, yearning lvl 2 is more than enough unless you are just a boomer GS who can’t play class without swiftness stats.
It is only run by bussers or hellmode players or newbies like you who need move/attack speed to play class with yearning lvl2. I play 3 GS at 1490+ and don’t tell me how to play class lmao. Can easy out dps ur boomer salvation GS. Playing Salvation explains alot about your skills that you are that swiftness andy who can’t dodge shit and need extra move/attack speed to overcome your boomerness.
Yeah clearly you are just a bad player who don’t understand anything about dps per cycle and how damage work in this game. Congrats you play 3 characters that you have no idea how it work. You probably get carried every week in every raid. Embarrassing Keep running your Nightmare crit/switf/spec and last thing you gonna tell me is that you still running peacemaker 1 ? lmfao
Maybe start reading properly, maybe your brain need some swiftness buff too, i never said i run Crit/spec/swift. I run NM + 1200crit/800spec with lvl 10 cd gems.
Again boomer PM1 is more damage than pm3 and better build until ancient accessories.
Ok buddy GL. I am a bad player and get out dps by Supports too, your knowledge is very high and whatever you play becomes the meta. I just got call from KR GS community and they said they will switch to Salvation as Suleth is playing salvation.
? Ye non existent you must be criting like a switfness scrapper . You getting outdps by everyone at your ilvl.
