A Guild of Gunslingers?

A Notice to All Fellow Gunslingers:

My name is Kizmet, and I’ve been a gunslinger from the day I fell in my pod. We deal with a lot of flack, not just from our guns but also from other players, who prefer more sharply-edged or explosive means of bringing the hurt on their enemies. Indeed, gunslingers are often criticized as the weakest of three “classes” that Spiral Knights has to offer. But I beg to differ! Gunslingers possess several advantages beside their obvious range and consequential kiting ability. Unique strategies and levels of control apply to gunners that can’t be found amongst swordsmen- our ability to deal any type of pure damage, provided we possess the right weapon, is one advantage. Our ability to inflict status ailments reliably and continuously is another. Perhaps soon will come the time when we can show our sword-toting comrades that if they and we squared off IRL with our weapons of choice, it would end with a whole lot of swiss-cheese corpses and celebratory charge attacks. So I ask you, my fellow marksmen, what would you say to a guild specifically for our range-loving people? A team of four gunslingers bringing down a horde of mobs is a beautiful thing indeed.

Would anyone be interested in this?

Sound interesting really,

Sound interesting really, myself I'm not a gunslinger, sorry...

Anyway, people should be able to decide which class they want to be. Also, combination is the key to success. Of course 4 gunslingers ain't useless either.

I lead my own guild (Afterglow), and am the only gunslinger in there :).

Figured I'd throw my gear up here.

Shadowsun Stetson
Shadowsun Slicker
Grey Owlite Shield
Callahan - working on getting + dmg to fiend
Vailance (+ high dmg to gremlin)
Hail Driver - working on getting + dmg to construct
Shadowtech MKII: (+ med dmg to slimes) - working on getting it 5*

I use my shadowtech to take out the JK

After i get my weapons built up, i'll start rockin out the armor.

My Guild

I just found this thread and for those gunslingers looking for a sanctuary to relate to fellow gunslingers, just Pm me in game (Purepwn) if you are interested I'm joining my guild (Riflemen Mercenaries) which is all about gun slinging. guns is not mandatory but the guild itself is for the love of the art and the class. sadly this guild just mostly consisted of my personal friends but I would LOVE some serious gunslingers to join to get things going and if things go off right it will only get better such as big meetings gunslinger uniforms the works.

the guild master is yours truly.(and yes OP it is a beautiful thing)

Hey all.

I'm already in Guild and not looking to be recruited elsewhere, but I am a dedicated Gunslinger. I just wanted to say good luck starting your respective posses, and I'd be happy to run along side other Gunslingers some time.

@ Damon

Why shadowsun stetson over nameless? I actually rather use shadowsun too (for cosmetic reasons) but I can't get over how it gives increase low vs the medium of swordsmen. Nameless also seems pointless though, cause IAS for 2 bullets is pathetic. It honestly seems like the worst armor for guns... is gunslinger gear.
