Original General Dungeon Fighter Thread

Fiel laughed at you for getting backstep? I consider backstep and cancel into backstep essential skills for PvE for a gunner. You can shoot shoot shoot backstep, shoot shoot shoot backstep. Canceling into backstep is extremely helpful against monsters that like to cast spells onto where you are, like the sky tower puppeteers.

Once I have more of my HC-only skills and use HCs exclusively, even in dungeons, I won't need it as much (jump + shoot to go flying), so I probably won't invest in backstep cancel, but backstep itself is glorious for screwing with melee'rs. Let them get just close enough to hit you, then backstep before they attack and unload on them.
