Gunslinger is a subclass of Hunter. The specialization of Gunslinger is dealing damage from afar. It excels in solo-play and single target damage. Gunslinger's super ability is the Golden Gun. Golden Gun transforms the player's weapon into a glowing magnum. Players will have a maximum of 3 shots with the magnum. Each shot will instantly kill weaker enemies in PvE and enemy players in PvP. Gunslinger's jump ability is Double Jump, which allows the player to jump consecutively. Gunslinger's melee attack is the Throwing Knife. It allows the player to throw their knife when meleeing enemies not in melee range.
