i got 11 summersault and maxed bullet time and i do fine that 1 point in invisable shot at 30 is good enouff mob control that extra accuracy allowed me to 100% hit alisher at 37

Bullet Time. SSK sucks with a gun.

I maxed SSK because even with 30 str, it will do close to 300 per monster with a pumpkin spear and I didnt like pq too much so I went to train instead But you wont even need SSK on ur key settings once u reach 40 or when you are close to max invis shot My gunner has Max SSK, double shot, bullet time, 1 fist, 0 dash Dash is really optional

The extra avoid is always nice, I've never found ssk useful, despite what kazoo or takeback3r say.

In my opinion, at the lower levels SSK really is more useful than BT for the low level grind. With Pirate Dex being what it is, it's not like you need the extra help or dodge against the enemies you'll be facing, and the mini-level mobs fall pretty quick to SSK while you're getting to 30 and IS. If you're going to take Grenade to 11, maybe then you'd max BT and leave SSK low, but that would be your choice, I suppose.

We only get 1 Avoid per 8 Dex. The extra avoid helps. I only ever used SSK as a quick close-range, moving away attack before I got Blank Shot and didn't need it anymore.

I left somersault at lv11 myself. I don't know why you would max it. The damage from it with a gun is pretty crappy and I immediately stopped using it as soon as I got invisible shot. Bullet Time at least helps in the long run with the avoid and all.

max bullet, sommersault is useless for gunslingers
