Overview

The Gunner's Twin Machine Guns revolves around the class's skill Chain Trigger and utilizing Chain Finish's 3 second duration to deal increased damage in bursts. Its Weapon Action, Stylish Roll, is overall safe and can also be used to deal damage and build chain. Despite being a ranged weapon, the weapon's ideal range to deal increased damage is close to medium range (1.2x and 1.1x damage respectively, signified by an orange reticle in target at close range).

Twin Machine Guns deal low damage overall until a sufficient amount of Chain is built up for Chain Finish, making the weapon effective only for Gunner. Performing combos during Chain Finish can be mechanically demanding due to its short duration.
