is being strless as a gunslinger worth it in the early levels? I thought it would help since gunslingers have really weak damage but it seems like pirates with reg str clean equips are still hitting higher than my funded pirate. What exactly does str do for a slinger? Does it make your range more stable at all or is it solely for equips? Sorry for all the questions Basil. Basically, should i turn to reg str? im lvl 27 now with 4 str. Or should i wait for the lvl 35 maple gun. Thanks!

Just make a normal str gunner >_> This whole strless thing is silly, everyone is all "Oh maple guns came out strless must be 1337 now" They'll end up just like strless bowmen

It will be worth it until about 70, since the highest maple weapon is 64....but then again, why not just go normal str, and get dex equips? O_o

STRless only helps when you can wear a maple gun. So below level 35, it only has a negative impact on your damage. But even at 35 the bonus isn't that high. Level 43 maple guns are really hard to get, but i suggest staying STRless if you can get one. At or slightly after level 80, convert to normal STR.

Be normal str pl0x. I'm normal str and I do almost 70k cannon damage added up.

The damage change from being strless at early levels isn't substantial enough to make it worth it. Even strless, without other good equips, you'll be weaker than nearly every other class. At the moment, there aren't many well scrolled Maple guns so your best bet is on regular str.
