About this class
Gunfighters are among the fastest weapon experts around. Able to react to danger and clear leather in an instant, their reflexes are prized throughout the world. Any true gunfighter knows that it takes more than reflexes to really get the job done. Awareness, intuition, insight all go a long way in the career of a Gunfighter. Perhaps most important; the knowledge of how to maintain and tinker with their favored weapons. Gunfighters by nature have chosen a more exotic line of weaponry to master and it takes knowledge of that weaponry to become as lethal as one can be. By knowing their favored weapon inside and out, using it as an extension of themselves and knowing when NOT to use it, a Gunfighter cements themselves as one of the best in what they do.
