Full gunner Chaos?

Chaos gives awesome abilities to each weapon type --- swords, guns, and bombs. But yes the abilities are still awesome if you use just one weapon type. And that's especially true if your weapons are charge-oriented, such as Autogun- and Magnus-style guns.

What you should consider is: If you're using just guns, then there are other armors whose offense is nearly as good as Chaos', but whose defense is much better. And there's also Black Kat. For more information check out the Handgun section of my detailed armor guide.

Chaos set is good but there are further more options if you are going to be a full gunslinger.
These are my **Loadouts** as full gunslinger:

Helmet: Black Kat Cowl (Expensive; although if you are lucky enough to get the book it is accessible)
-Alternative (s): Chaos Cowl; Perfect Mask of Seerus (Expansion)

Armor: Shadowsun Slicker
-Alternative (s): Padded Armor Series ( http://wiki.spiralknights.com/Padded_Armor )
Comments on the Padded Armor Series: These series is awesome! There is a variety to choose from; say if you are having trouble with zombies and fire inside Fire Storm Citadel; you can route to the Sacred Firefly Ghost Armor ( http://wiki.spiralknights.com/Sacred_Firefly_Ghost_Armor ). The stats that gives are purely for gunning. DISCLAIMER: You can only find the series recipes through the ARCADE VIA BASIL. (Random stock) They can be a burden to find.

Shield: Swiftstrike Buckler
-Alternative (s): Crest of Almire; Grey Owlite Shield; Omega Shell; Dragon Scale Shield
Comments: Choose only the alternatives if you can access Attack Speed Increase (ASI) via Unique Variants (UV)

Trinkets: http://wiki.spiralknights.com/Trinket
Press CONTROL+F
Keyword(s):
*Handgun Focus(Charge Time Reduction)
*Trueshot (Increase Damage)
*Quickdraw (Attack Speed Increase)
Comments: This will vary and will suffice any stats that you are lacking on.

Good luck fellow gunslinger :) !

And let me point out, as I do in all of these threads, that the 3-star Black Kat helmet is easy to get during any Kataclysm. Its offense is just as good as the 5-star helmet's. Its defense isn't quite as good, but one doesn't really wear this armor for defense.

Every player (who has been in the game for sufficiently many months) should own the 3-star Black Kat helmet (unless they have an even higher-star one).

But if you're using autoguns, you definitely need ctr, chaos will cover you there. But autoguns can still work really well with asi as it can speed up their charge animations and be really helpful in singleswitching to kill enemies that are almost dead.

Yes if you are using the [Autogun] or [Magnus] line CTR is very important. The only use I can find for [Autogun] line is for destroying bosses such as Jelly King, Vanaduke and the other being the annoying Trojans. The [Magnus] line is very similar to the [Brandish] line; piercing enemies in a straight line in front of you. The [Magnus] line is fun to use in Arenas where monster are clunked or grouped up together; watch those numbers fly especially if they "ride the bullet" in which it hits the enemies multiple times.

their charges are useful too
