![]() Being able to perform a literal airstrike or a powerful laser blast that can only be described as a “Kamahama” is truly a sight to behold and even more fun to pull off before unsuspecting friends. The two most powerful skills at a Gunner’s disposal, Bombardment and Balder’s Vengeance, are so strong that the game will queue players in on how awesome the skills are by creating two black bars on the top and bottom of your screen to give the attack a cinematic feel to it. Time Bomb and Arc Bomb can be used to liter the battlefield with traps that will either explode in a small AoE or stun them for a brief period of time, which leaves them wide open for the more powerful, willpower consuming attacks such as Burst Fire, which turns your heavy gun into a mini-gun, letting players spray bullets as much as possible. Skills like scattershot and point blank will turn your heavy gun into a shotgun, firing shots in a small arc that damages every enemy inside of it, as well as knocking them back (respectively). The different kinds of active skills for Gunners can range from fiery, to explosive, to just plain nuclear. The passive trait of double jointed ankles is also a nice plus for pivoting in heels. They also have a new meter resource that players must build up and manage in order to deal powerful attacks, called “Willpower.” You build up willpower by either killing enemies, using skills with special willpower granting glyphs, or simply using the “Replenishment” skill to build up both MP and Willpower at the same time. The feel of playing a Gunner in TERA is completely unlike the other ranged DPS classes in the game (Archer, Sorcerer) simply due to the fact that Gunners can move and shoot at the same time, resulting in more of a third-person shooter type of combat. But the Gunner immediately felt like a great departure from the usual class formulas featured prior. Since I was already familiar with TERA, having played multiple classes through quite a bit of the game, it didn’t take too long for me to get adjusted to a new class. I was invited to try out the new Gunner class recently and CM.Treeshark was there to give us a crash course in how to master the art of PEW PEW. The new Gunner class, along with many other new features will be coming to TERA: Rising this May 5 th. En Masse and Bluehole Studios are introducing a new ranged class simply called “The Gunner,” a highly DPS-focused class that’s all about using brutal force to get the job done. Coming soon to the world of TERA: Rising is a brand new update that will excite new and old TERA players in more ways than one.
