Gunslinger Rebirth into Night Watch

The time is finally upon us. Our first expanded class able to rebirth is Gunslinger! Just like with any other trans class, upon hitting 99/70 and paying the appropriate zeny fee they can rebirth and start the journey all over again, this time with access to better gears as well as improved stats and new skills.

Night Watch Hideout

All new Night Watches are welcome to come to the guild's secret hideout. You'll find this north of Einbroch, in ein_fild04. It's very tucked away and well hidden, however, but here's a picture that will show you where to start looking.

.

Inside you'll find the Night Watch guild hard at work to craft gears for each other that can only be worn by them. This includes various guns, as well as a few headgears. You can save, rest, and shop here as well if you want to stock up on ammo or use the Kafra like most other inn type locations.

You can buy these gears at the main desk from Pekora, but you'll first have to get your hands on some Night Watch Coins to buy anything from her. To get Night Watch Coins you have a bevy of options as there are many Night Watch members who are looking for different types of help for the guild and will give you varying amounts of Night Watch Coins for your troubles.

We won't reveal what everything is here, just explore the hideout and talk to the members, they'll explain it!

Gunslinger Skill Adjustments

Rebirth for Gunslinger doesn't just give them new skills, it looks over their entire skill tree and tries to make sure no skill is left behind. Every skill should have some niche use now and other staples of the class have been rebalanced to give a better overall feel for the class. This is pretty much exclusively buffs so Gunslinger even before rebirth should be exceptionally better as a class. There's far too many details to list entirely on this page so make sure you go to the Gunslinger page on our wiki and look at each skill's page for more detailed descriptions of the changes.

1.) Coin Flip skill lowered from 5 skill points to 1 skill point.

2.) Increase Accuracy buff duration increased from 1 minute > 4 minutes.

3.) Bull's Eye skill ratio lowered to 110% ATK ratio and reworked. Now marks enemies. Enemies who are marked will also be hit by auto attacks by the Gunslinger who applied it.

4.) Triple Action no longer requires Chain Action, Level 10 to learn, it only requires Level 1 coin flip.

5.) Magical Bullet reworked. No longer deals damage. Consume 1 Little Ghost doll to endow you with Ghost element. This persists through weapon swaps.

6.) Cracker stun chance raised to consistent 100%. Enemy VIT based resist is ignored by this skill in PVM, but not PVP.

7.) Chain Action now applies to all guns/weapons at different rates. Skill points lowered from 10 > 5. Gatling Guns gain 14% proc rate per skill point, Revolvers gain 10% , and other guns gain 5%.

8.) Rapid Shower bullet cost lowered from 5 > 1. SP Cost now changed to 16-25 based on skill rank down from 22-40.

9.) Desperado Reworked, no longer applies individual hits around the caster. Instead always hits enemies with 3 bundles of two hits for a total of 6 hits around the gunslinger in a 7x7 area of effect. Knocks back enemies 1 cell.

10.) Desperado skill points lowered from 10 to 5. SP Cost reduced to 22-30 down from 32-50 previously. Skill ratio adjusted to 900-2100% ATK. (ends up same damage/dps on average compared to old desperado)

11.) Gatling Fever skill points lowered from 10 to 5. No longer requires Desperado, Level 5 or Rapid Shower, Level 7 to learn. Instead requires Chain Action Level 5.

12.) Gatling Fever SP cost reduced to 15-30 down from 30-48. Skill formula is now only the latter half of its original formulas (basically level 1-5 now is the same as 6-10 was previously). Cannot be used with the new Gatling Berserk skill.

13.) Tracking reworked. Now has a fixed 2 second channel time at all ranks. Deals 1-4 hits based on channel time with 4 hits at full channel. The skill can critically strike on each hit and deals double or triple damage depending on target under the effects of fully stacked Intensive Aim.

14.) Tracking Damage ratio adjusted to 100-235% per hit based on rank. No longer requires Single Action, Level 5 and instead requires Snake Eyes, Level 5. SP Cost reduced to 22-40 down from 15-60. Now hard requires a Rifle only instead of a Rifle or Revolver.

15.) Disarm reworked vs monsters. Now has a 20-100% chance based on rank to affect monsters. No longer reduces monster attacks by 25% and instead applies a debuff the causes monsters basic attacks to miss 35% of the time. This affects boss monsters, but not MVP monsters.

16.) Piercing Shot reworked. Now also applies a debuff on monsters that affects the caster who applied it. When attacking a monster who has been pierced by this skill, the caster will ignore 20-100% LUK based defense for purposes of calculating critical strikes based on skill rank.

17.) Full Buster no longer requires Dust, Level 3 and instead requires Spread Shot, Level 1. Skill points lowered from 10 to 5. SP Cost reduced to 15-35 down from 20-65. Number of bullets normalized to be always 4 regardless of rank. (down from up to 10 bullets per cast).

18.) Full Buster Damage ratio changed to 500/700/900/1100/1300% ATK based on rank. (same at max rank as previous). Cast Delay based on rank changed to 1.5/1.875/2.25/2.625/3 seconds. (same at max rank as previous).

19.) Ground Drift skill removed entirely and replaced with Basic Grenade in the skill tree. Can be learned as a Gunslinger.

20.) Dust skill points lowered from 10 to 5. Ratio adjusted to 400-600% (same at max rank as previous). SP Cost adjusted to 8-20, from 3-30. Ranged increased from 2 > 6 cells. Knockback increased to 7 cells from 6.

21.) Spread Shot damage ratio increased to 125-350% up from 100-280%. SP Cost reduced to 11-20 down from 13-40. No longer has any pre requisites.

Transcendent Gear Updates

As comes with transcending, Night Watch can now equip a myriad of new rebirth gears. For the sake of consistency we've kept a general rule here for the upcoming expanded trans classes. The rule is if it already applied to "all" classes then it will work for the new expanded. If it was meant for only a handful of classes or one specifically (example: sniping suit) then they will NOT be able to equip that gear. However, there were many cases an item was specifically coded for essentially any trans 2nd job but not "all" and those have been included as well for consistency. For gears like the Valkyrian set the bonuses will mirror that of an Archer since we feel this is most close to their archetype. For choosing which gear they can equip for things like Diabolus Robe vs Armor we also looked for consistency by comparing them with an Archer class. So there you'll see them able to equip a Diabolus Robe. There's a bit too many to keep going over all of them, however so here's the complete list.

Night Watch Job EXP Table

This information has already been added to our EXP chart page, but I'm reposting here for anyone interested on release of what the Night Watch Job EXP table looks like. Because Night Watch has a unique 85 job levels we had to create our own table for them that scales a bit more linearly near the end rather than having a huge spike randomly like other trans classes. This was to ensure that each job level takes more EXP than the previous like normal, but the total job exp by job 85 still mirrors that of other trans classes.
