So far, there are two Shadow Lair armor set that gives bonus to swords (Snarbolax/Heavenly Iron set*) and one to bombs (Mercurial Demo set) with the others having either no bonus or bonus to certain monsters. If there is a Snarbolax Lair armor set for sword and bombs, there should be one for Gunslingers too (somehow I fell that OOO neglects gunslingers...)
My suggestion:
Normal+Shadow or Elemental defense
One status resist (maybe Fire?)
Gun damage bonus medium each/Gun damage bonus low for one piece, medium for the other piece (like Volcanic Demo set) - Since VH ASI is common and this is a SL armor set so it is harder to get so it should get more bonus.

*Heavenly Iron set gives low damage bonus per piece to swords against any enemy and low damage bonus per piece to every weapon against fiends.

" and this is a SL armor set

" and this is a SL armor set so it is harder to get so it should get more bonus."

the same concept doesn't apply to any current sl armor. They are not that great for what they offer, compared to regular armors, except maybe the snarbolax set.

This is cool... Ant it should be Roarmulous Twins based, with them being the ranged boss and all...so, THIS IS A MUST!!!

+1?

the shadow lair armor would look like all the other gunslinger armors, the same Lol XD

Enough with the jokes, I think the gunslinger helms should get reskinned before OOO starts on a new gunner set. I overall do like the idea of a shadow lair gunslinger set. I dont think the stats should be better though since almost no SL armor is better.

@OP

maybe.... ugh since IMF theme is taken by Demoes.... maybe some what.... RJP theme (no, not jellt coated ponchoes, maybe something antique to match antigua's descp?) well first, maybe give it some sort of holy preist-ish theme (to match argent peacemaker) so normal/peircing+shadow def with curse res (which maybe useless for pure gunners), and med CTR per set (i would put neg asi since its and antique so it rusty and stuff but most SL stuff dont have negative buffs). i would replace/or add in poison res.

i hope most gunnes would like this, SL gunner set, u could shoot this down if u want, +1 if u want, it just a suggestion to change a suggestion (suggestception)
happy gunning

Deathshot is already "holy

Deathshot is already "holy preist-ish theme".

What about Arcane Gunner set? - it would be a pun of Arcane Archer, and could have CTR for handguns.

Let's even call it Arcane Arquebusier (for those two A, as in original Arcane Archer)

I can imagine Arcane Arquebusier Tabard (made of Sunset Duster, but using Tabard model) and Arcane Arquebusier Hat (Gunslinger Hat model without sheriff star, but with Rose Chapeau feather attached). Probably it would be somewhat violet in colour like Arcane Salamander. With some glowing indigo sigils here and there.

Anyway, talking about SL Gunslinger Gear I think the priorities are:
1. Introduce new boss (T3? T1?)
2. Make a SL version of that boss
3. New material, obtainable after defeating this new boss, will enable creation of SL gear with Handguns bonuses.

Of course all three above could be introduced at once.

Metagenic

let's see

Swordsmen: 4 sets

Vog Cub: elemental, fire, ASI
Skolver: piercing, freeze, DMG
Snarbolax (SL): shadow, poison, freeze, DMG
Heavenly Iron (SL): shadow, curse, negative shock, DMG

Conclusion: Swordsmen need Shadow Lair armors to get defense against all damage types.

Bombers: 4 sets

Volcanic Demo: elemental, fire, CTR
Bombastic Demo: elemental, freeze, DMG
Mad Bomber: elemental, negative everything, CTR, DMG
Mercurial Demo (SL): elemental, shock, DMG, MSI

Conclusion: Bombers need Shadow Lair armors to obtain more status resistances…and they still only have elemental armor.

Gunners: 4 sets + 1 helm

Justifier: piercing, stun, ASI
Nameless: elemental, freeze, ASI
Deadshot: shadow, curse, ASI
Shadowsun: shadow, poison, DMG
Perfect Mask of Seerus (OCH): elemental, fire, shock, negative freeze, negative poison, ASI, CTR

Conclusion: Gunners have everything already.

This made sense before, when deadshot wasnt really a gunner set and shadowsun was pierce, meaninng there was a lack of proper shadow protection, wich could have been filled with this idea.

Now metagenic is right. The only flaw gunners have is lack of a 2* startup.
