Gunslinger (Duelist in Brazil) was an ancient title bestowed upon a particularly active legion during the First Demon Wars. The only extant record from that time, the Chronicles of Klayah, reveals that although the title "Gunslinger" had fallen into obscurity, it was indeed used by the most powerful kingdom of the time during the First Demon Wars.

The Rune Casters of Kounat displayed much power and influence during the First Demon Wars and invested a great amount of magical and mechanical resources; however as the war drew on, they realized it was going to be impossible to sustain their efforts for much longer. To solve this problem, the most esteemed Rune Caster in the kingdom, Jean-Sanque Gulio, invented a powered gun designed to fire magical rounds while conserving the operator's own energy. The elite legion trained to use this weapon was called the "Gunslingers." The weapon proved to be a success. The First Demon Wars ended with the surrender of the Demons.

However, Kounat came to an untimely end with a mysterious explosion. The secrets of the Maverick and the secrets of building them were lost forever. It is believed by scholars that the rifles used today by the Dwarves of Archimedia are based on the ancient design of the Maverick.

The Maverick-wielding Gunslingers have a variety of unique magic and machines at their disposal that can induce their enemies to walk right into thermal traps, allowing for effective mid-distance attacks. The Gunslinger's Triple Missiles attack compensates for the fact she has a weak long distance attack by enhancing the Maverick's inherent strengths. The Gunslinger continues to use the Rune Caster's Mana Shield and Dash Jump; however the Gunslinger's version is stronger than that of the Rune Caster's, who has always been weak when it came to close quarter combat, and the summoned W.D.W. has also been enhanced. The Gunslinger's many skills can be confusing at first, but with practice and training she is a force to be reckoned with on the battle field.

Basic Movments

Overheat Meter

The Overheat Gauge, empty as no shots have been fired.

The Maverick has Overheated. 7 seconds are required for heat to vent completely.

Displayed below the MP gauge is a bar that may seem similar to the Charging Meter used by Jin and Sieghart. However, this the "Overheat Meter". Using sustained shots from the Maverick will overheat the gun, preventing it from firing. Eight consecutive shots will overheat the weapon, forcing a 7 second cooldown period wherein you may not fire.

Keystrokes	Name	Effect
	Basic Combo	Mari fires her Marverick thirce: its bullets travel about a little less than mid-screen and explode on impact. The shots can be aimed up or down with the arrow keys.
+	Critical Attack	Mari spins and fires one bullet forward. (Note: contrary to Lire's Critical Attack, Mari will shot in the direction designated by the arrow key, and not the opposite).
+	Double Attack	Mari spins and fires one bullet forward. (Note: contrary to Lire's Double Attack, Mari will shot in the direction designated by the arrow key, and not the opposite).
+(	Jump Attack	Mari fires her Marverick downwards.
+(Overheat)+	Jump Attack (Overheat)	Mari jumps and slaps her hand downward, summoning three small magic bursts to hit the opponent. This attack can be used only when the Maverick is in cooldown.
	Dash	Mari leaps forward.
+(Pause)+	Rocket Boost	Mari conjures runes from her hands, which propel her above.
+	Dash Attack	Mari performs a high kick.
++	Turning Shot	Mari quickly spins and fires on the opposite side.
+	Grab	Mari climbs onto the opponent, points the muzzle of the Maverick to the opponent's head, and performs a contact shot while jumping backwards. (Note: Both players are invincible throughout the animation.) (Note: Only works in PvP; Dungeon monsters cannot be grabbed.) (Note: Due to lag, it may not work, or may intercept the opponent's attack/skill.)

Stance Change

Keystrokes	Name	Effect
+	Stance Mode	Mari changes pose, allowing her to use numerous abilities by a combination of buttons. (Note: This ability will wear off if a command is not used)
++	Push Board	Mari deploys a crate denominated "Sector Lv1" that will explode dealing damage to nearby opponent, However. if is pressed, Mari will set up the crate, creating a small blue construct that triggers a push board when an opponent touches it. The construct can be destroyed by opponent's attacks and will expire after few seconds. If, instead of , is pressed, Mari will switch the crate into one of the next level.(Note: only two constructs may be deployed on the field at the same time. Attempting to deploy a third one will remove the first one.)
++	Triple Missile	Mari deploys a crate denominated "Sector Lv2" that will explode dealing damage to nearby opponent, However. if is pressed, Mari will set up the crate, creating a small white turret that fires a missile in the air which splits in three smaller missiles that drop down and explode on impact with the ground. The turrent can be destroyed by opponent's attacks and will expire after 6 shots have been fired.(Note: the first missile neither deals damage nor can hit opponents; and only two turrets may be deployed on the field at the same time. Attempting to deploy a third one will remove the first one.)
++ (Spam)	Summon W.D.W.	Mari attracts screws to summon the Wing Drive Weapon. However, when she is charging, she is a sitting duck as she can only cancel the charging pose with a skill. If the key is not pressed fast enough, Mari's attempt to summon the Wind Drive Weapon will fail.
+	Mana Shield	Mari evelopes herself in a shield made of blue flames that cause damage to be taken from MP instead of HP. The shield last 10 seconds, although there is no cooldown and thus it can be summoned again to create a new one or to refresh the cooldown of the old one.(Note: Ironically, MP does not drain while the ability is active, despite it intending to use Mana for protection.)
++(Full Duration)	Load Ice Cartridge	Mari charges runic energy by doing a gesture. After few moments, a runic symbol will appear over her head, meaning that the charge is complete. Mari will load the orb into her marverick upon completion. The orb is stored forever until is used to fire the Freezing Bullet or a map transition has occured. When she is charging she is vulnerable, but she can just move or dash away at anytime she wishes.
(Ice Cartridge)+	Freezing Bullet	Mari fires a freezing round from her Marverick: the bullet freezes the opponent on impact.

Trivia

File:MariwithNerf.jpg

Mari holding a Nerf weapon with the same name and general style as her own.

"Shock Wave" shares the same name as a monster's property, one of Magician's basic movements, and Druid's 2nd grade skill.
The Gunslinger's Maverick seems to be based on the Nerf Maverick.
Strangely, the foreign name for this job ("Duelist") is also used by Sieghart.
- In Brazil, the job Gunslinger is named "Duelista" while the name of Sieghart's Duelist job is named "General".
A Helper Bot is used in the Gunslinger's taunt.
The characters summoned during Chaos Beam are references to the 'Super Sentai' or Power Rangers franchises. Hero teams in these series often include red, blue, and yellow costumed members, and a number have used similar large cannons as full-team attacks. Much like with Chaos Beam, there is typically at least one member of the team simply posing during such sequences.
- Interestingly, the words "OK" and "GO" appear when preparing and firing the beam, respectively.
Gunslinger is Mari's only job that has an asymmetrical costume.
Gunslinger's Chaos Beam resembles the beam from Spell Knight 's Ray Freeze skill.
