Gunner (CoS Class)  

City of Steam Wikibase™ Classes

A dabbler in soul magics, the Gunner is also an exacting marksman empowered with abilities that can turn normal firearms into siege engines.

It’s sometimes said that the most dedicated warriors pour their heart and soul into their weapons. Gunners that practice the art of Trigger Magic do just that, using their own blood in special rounds and powder blends to transform their sidearms into occult implements.

The Gunner is capable of runs of intense damage output followed by very little while his weapons cooldown. For this reason, the Gunner's greatest needs are Critical, Precision and Impact.
