THE SPELLSLINGER

MAG PISTOLS

For centuries, the number of bullets Spellslingers could shoot per second was an infuriating bottleneck. Then, belatedly recalling that they were ambidextrous, they added a second pistol to their arsenal. The rest is exit wound history.
MAGIC SIGILS

If there's one thing Spellslingers hate, it's a fair fight. That's why they supplement their deadeye marksmanship by juicing up their weapons and ammo with sorcerous sigils. Who says gunfighting and the occult don't mix? The Spellslingers' victims, and they aren't talking.
ACROBATICS

If there's another thing they hate, it's losing. For generations, Spellslingers fought duels by standing stationary at opposite ends of deserted streets, only to find themselves defeated by the agile. Humiliated by their own immobility, they delved into the arcane arts of somersaulting. Needless to say, their win percentages improved by leaps and bounds.

    Arcane Missile
  • spellslinger-roles-dps-flame-burst.png
    Flame Burst
Playing your Spellslinger with a focus on healing should get abilities such as:
  • spellslinger-roles-healer-regenerative-pulse.png
    Regenerative Pulse
  • spellslinger-roles-healer-sustain.png
    Sustain

Since time immemorial, there have been Spellslingers. Lean, craggy types with dead eyes, their only weapons pistols, their only mailing addresses the grim and dusty wastes, their only social contact in saloons so violent that most patrons brought along their own body-bags.
