Uhh Gunslinger is new?

[PocketYoda]

Pretty sure that was around in 2009, but the cash shop is making out its new and shiny?

You are thinking of Specialist, Gunslinger is pretty much that, but a dedicated Ranged damage AT.

Gunslinger was made with the recent changes and additions to the munitions tree. It's mostly just a way to show off some of the new stuff that got added with the power update

I see thanks, is it pretty much the same power set as old?

Again, Gunslinger was made during the muntion changes which was a couple months ago.
It makes it the third munitions based AT, the first being the free Soldier AT and the second being the Z-Store Specialist AT.

I've never played the Gunslinger and haven't gotten around to using the munitions yet but from looks it's a DPS build with a focus dual pistol powers like Specialist but instead of dual swords there's powers the stack and use the Furious buffs for various effects like healing

I haven't played since 2011 but i have a gunslinger power email i made back then, to give to another character so i could remember what skills to use.

Maybe they removed it and readded 3 months ago, i've been away from this game since 2011, i can link a screen shot of the build email if needed.

Edit
I think if i remember Gunslinger was actually a gold free form setup back then.

The POWERS existed back then for the most part (Save for a number of passives and reworked powers) but this AT was made in Feburary. They're different things and the AT was made to showcase the reworked munition powers/systems

Ah got ya, makes sense as it was a hugely popular Freeform back then.

New passive (offensive) - Composure

New advantages - armor-piercing, furious (munitions element), wall of bullets (for SMG).

AR was changed to a high tier power / SMG replaces the AR, drastically cutting down on the range Soldier ATs can engage mobs early on.
