Skills and route selection

Pistol uses Chain Action, Platinum Altar and repeated Desperado. Later Gatling builds use Last Stand and normal attacks; Rifle pairs Bull’s Eye with Tracking; Shotgun uses Spread Shot and Crowd Control Shot.

Stats: what to prioritize

AGI, DEX and LUK form the guide’s general attack foundation. Equipment priorities include Hit, attack speed and Critical support; weapon choice determines which effects are useful.

Gear, traits and cards

Start with one weapon package. Skills and traits are weapon-restricted, so a developed PvE set is not automatically a PvP set. Compare general physical and Critical cards before committing to an element-specific card.

Runes and investment order

The guide suggests Water or Wind resonance for damage and Fire for PvP. These are single-source priorities, not guarantees for every weapon or current patch.

Complete one coherent route before funding an alternative. The source supports a starting plan; it does not establish current prices or a guaranteed outcome for a particular account.
