Lost Ark Gunlancer Build: Engravings
As a tank class, the Gunlancer has a great Engraving choice in Combat Readiness. It’s a damage engraving, sure, but it provides these damage bonuses while in defensive stance, something you’ll be doing a lot as a tank! It buffs your normal skills damage by 20%, your shield amount by 30% in defensive stance, and your damage by 4% when hit in defensive stance for a short time. In PvE the benefits of this are obvious, it allows you to deal more damage while holding the attention of bosses and the like. In PvP, you can survive assailing players while keeping your own counter attack strong. Additional Engravings that should be used with the Gunlancer are as follows (all showing level three effects):
Master Brawler: Increases your damage to the head (the front) of enemies by 25% Grudge: Increases damage against bosses and higher-leveled enemies by up to 20% and decreases damage taken by the same amount.
Lost Ark Gunlancer Build: Priority stats
Swiftness is always a great pick as it allows you to move, attack, and use abilities faster the more swiftness you possess. As a rule of thumb, always try and equip gear with Swiftness on it when possible.
