Rebel Gatling Gun Crit
RebelSingle-target PvE / boss DPSAs of 2026-09 (SEA)

The Gatling Rebel stacks attack speed and crit, then lets Gatling Fever and Last Stand drive rapid basic attacks from long range. It's a very popular Gunslinger build and the base for the Lv 70 Night Watch grenade build. It is fragile, so positioning and the Platinum Altar escape matter.
Well sourced
Our take
The RO New World team's own view
- For players who want boss and single-target PvE damage and can position carefully; it is also the base for the Lv 70 Night Watch grenade build. If you die often, start with Pistol Desperado, which has far more mobility.
- Max Gatling Fever first, then put Endless Frenzy on the weapon for near-permanent uptime. After that, AGI to about 185+ ASPD with Concentration and Awakening potions, then LUK, with Kobold Archer Card or Archer Skeleton Card in the weapon.
- The trap is casting Last Stand just because it is off cooldown. It roots you, so cast it only from a safe spot behind your frontline and keep Platinum Altar ready to cancel it.
- Our verdict: our Rebel pick for bosses and the late game, but fragile and demanding. If you cannot keep a frontline between you and the enemy, the damage never shows up.
Stat Priority
- 1. DEX
- 2. AGI
- 3. LUK
Keep DEX first, raise AGI until about 185+ ASPD with Concentration and Awakening potions, then add LUK for crits. Some players run 64 AGI / 53 LUK and hit the 193 ASPD cap with Gatling Fever, Last Stand and priest buffs, while others reach 189/192 ASPD. Some builds skip DEX entirely (AGI/LUK/STR), so DEX is not a strict requirement.

Tips
- Play Pistol until Lv 40, then craft a Gatling Gun once you are Rebel.
- Never cast Last Stand just because it is off cooldown; only from a safe spot behind your frontline.
- Set attack range to 12 m so you do not chase targets out of skill range.
- Guild skill: invest in Physical Attack Training.
- Use food buffs and consumables before GvG; ASPD cap usually needs Concentration and Awakening potions.
