  • Shotgun — Close rushing target · Do not force long shots.

Quick notes

  • Three combat directions. The skill system supports revolver-oriented Gunslinger play, rifle-oriented Ranger play and shotgun-oriented Trapper play.
  • Weapon roles. Revolvers support flexible close and medium combat, rifles reward precision at range, and shotguns excel nearby.
  • Reload where the next shot is protected. Weapon handling matters as much as damage.
  • Read a skill before committing. The next skill should solve an observed problem: slow handling, a preferred firing style or pressure at close range.
