Gunslinger Build (Lv. 10-200)

Air strike seems only useful on layered maps. I would wait until CWK II comes out before making any drastic changes, as skeles and newties could easily be replaced in a high level, elementally friendly area like that. The maps are going to be what decides what one maxes of course. If the good maps are flat/have little platforms, max torpedo. If they're really tall, go for air strike.

Good point. I doubt I'd be 120 by the time we get CWK2 anyways so I have lots of time. However, Air Strike's 5 second cooldown still limits its usage in layered maps as well. You're going to have to climb up and kill off the mobs. You can't solely depend on Air Strike to kill a mob unless it OHKOs.

Don't forget about skillbook availability.

Rapid Fire 30 and Elemental Boost 30 seem to be the rarest Corsair skillbook. I've only seen 1 Rapid Fire 30 in the FM so far and 0 Elemental Boost 30. Cannon 20 also seems kinda rare as well. Air Strike 30 drops from Horntail but they're really cheap right now. I've seen them as low as 1 mil. Other than that, the rest of the books don't seem that rare at all.
