Rebellion is a high-damage inflicting class with some unique damage mitigating skills that makes you harder to kill than other long ranged classes. Having different weapons to choose from, each has its own way to play! So pick your gun, aim and fire!
(This guide will be edited as ideas/experience come in)
I'll be straight forward on this guide as listed,
-General things to know/do as a Rebel
-Best Weapon for each type
-Builds for each Weapon/Gear
General Things to Know
- Always use the correct bullet element for maximum DPS.
- Most of Gunslinger/ Rebellion skills has been highly modified/customized, take the time to read it all!
- Rebellion's weapons naturally give High WATK and ATK scaling of offensive skills are very high, with that idea in mind, you can build your equipment with much more resistances than just focus on damage stacking.
- It's MANDATORY to get the following supportive skills; Fling, Increasing Accuracy, Adjustment, Rich's Coin, Platinum Alter, Crimson Marker.
- Always Fling the enemy you are dealing damage on, except when using Mass Spiral as dps.
- Keep Platinum Alter/ Adjustment up all the time to increase survivability
- Platinum Alter's shield scales with VIT, the higher your VIT the stronger the damage absortion shield is.
- You can't stack the Damage bonus of Platinum Alter to Madness Canceller / Heat Barrel as they cancel each other out, BUT the shield stays.
- Treat Madness Canceller (MC) as a lesser version of Heat Barrel (HB). Madness ROOTS you for the duration (Can be canceled) while HB applies a special status that is undispellable when canceled/weapon swap/disarmed called Rebound. (Prevents attacking/ skill usage/ item usage for 10 seconds. Basically, you're a sitting duck! Quack Quack!)
- Grenade Launcher has the highest HIT bonus out of all guns.
- Here in Leika, Chain Action can be toggled on or off! Revolvers naturally double attack.
- Eternal Chain makes all gun types to double attack!
- Crimson Marker reduces enemy flee by 10%, use it on high-flee targets/mvps. Did you know that it also marks the mob in the mini map? Your party members can see it as well! Useful for finding specific mobs/ mvps!
- Fling debuff goes through even if it misses! Useful in breaking Kaupe'd enemies.
- The higher your ASPD the faster your cast animation will be. Applies to all Gunslinger/Rebellion skills.
- Banishing Buster and Shattering Storm dispel/ equipment break only works when it successfully hits.
- You MUST make sure that the marked enemy is inside the cast area (4x4 cells) of Hammer of God (HoG). Otherwise nothing will happen.
- Platinum Shield comes first before Kyrie Eleison.
- Flicker reveals enemies in a 5x5 area.
- Disarm helps by reducing the outcoming damage of mobs/mvps, use this to help your party members! Especially the tank!
- Out of bullets? Magical Bullet requires no ammo! Uses 1 sphirit sphere per cast.
- You have enough skill points to use 2-3 weapons! Thats right! You really are the GRAND ARSENAL!
- Quick Draw Shot only uses 10 sp for each cast regardless of the amount of the targets marked by Crimson Marker.
- Bind Trap is one of the strongest movement impairing traps in game. The damage is only applied on enemies inside the trap.
- A fully stacked Ground Drift can detonate all at once if the enemy is immune to Knock Back.

Revolvers
Desperado - A Modified LDR% build is highly suggested, Mandatory Royal Marksman's Cuirass for the armor's passive to combo with adjustment to receive a total of 40% damage reduction to physical and magical damage. You can change the garment into Nidhoggur's Shadow Garb with Exploration Rover Card, Raydric Card or any of the Elemental Resistance Cards. Max Desperado, Fire Dance, Fallen Angel. The DPS of this build is greatly boosted with Poem of Bragi.
Combo: Fallen Angel > Fire Dance > Desperado for maximum utilization of skill cast animation/ cast delay
Quick Draw Shot - You can either use LDR% or CAB build for this. Mandatory to use Infinity Revolvers [1] with EA enchantments. Quick Draw Shot can only be used right after a Chain Action proc. Also triggers on Crimson Marked Targets! Continuous usage drains sp fast, highly recommended to have Service for You. The DPS of this build is greatly boosted with Poem of Bragi.
Rapid Shower - LDR% Build, Sp Intensive. The DPS of this build is greatly boosted with Poem of Bragi.
Rifle
Piercing Shot - The main reason of the CB. Modified in LeikaRO to CRIT and follow CRIT Damge %. Mandatory use of Infinity Rifle [1] with EA enchantments. High ASPD is advised to achieve cast animation efficiency/ spammability. The Critical Hits landed by Piercing Shot goes through Neutral Barrier.
Tracking - Requires LDR% Build and Temporal Boots of Dexterity for the 0.5 Cast Time Reduction. Mandatory use of Infinity Rifle [1] with EA enchantments. Continuous usage drains sp fast, highly recommended to have Service for You. The DPS of this build is greatly boosted with Poem of Bragi. You can actually cast this skill instantly without animation! It's hilarious! Just use Lvl 2 Tracking with Temporal Boots of Dexterity!
Mass Spiral - LDR% and requires Full Metal Jacker (FMJ) Catalyst each cast. Golden Rule: Efficient Damage = IF enemy def >= 500, THEN use. WARNING: DO NOT USE FLING WHEN USING MASS SPIRAL AS DPS.
Anti-Material Blast - Treat this the same as Fling, use it everytime for additional damage.
Hammer of God - LDR%/ CB/ CAB whatever. It has very high ATK scaling so it can be used on all types of builds. Recommended to swap to Exodus Joker XIII Rifle on each use for maximum damage output. High damage AoE skill, follows bullet element for damage. Requires Crimson Marked Target. The cast area of HoG is 4x4 cells.
Shotgun
Shattering Buster - LDR% Build. A deadly combination of Shattering Storm & Banishing Buster having a chance to destroy/ disarm/ dispel the enemy hit.
Slug Shot - LDR% Build. The Solo MVP killer skill. Also known as the "Long Ranged Asura Strike". Can 1 shot mvps/ high tier mobs/ players when the right conditions are met. Has a chance to miss the farther you cast it. Highly advised to have high HIT or Reduce enemy FLEE as much as possible. Best used with Infinity Shotgun [1] with EA enchantments.
Full Buster - LDR% Build. High single target damage. Only fun with Poem of Bragi. Uses ammo so fast, faster than Usain Bolt.
Magical Bullet - LDR% or modify it with MATK Gears/Cards. For fun only build. Has potential when used with the right elemental bullet. Even though monsters take additional damage based on their base level, it is still mediocre damage and is outdamaged by other skills. Use it as a final resort when out of bullets or to pierce thru Illusionary Shadow or Cast-off Cicada Shell. Best used with Rolling Thunder [1] because of the MATK bonus it gives or Infinity Shotgun [1] with EA or Spell enchantments.
Gatling Gun
Auto-Attack Eternal Chain - LDR% or CAB for maximum damage output. The fire and forget play. DPS is based on Chain Action/Eternal Chain and Quick Draw Shot. But not intensive use as Revolvers because of the high ATK bonus you can stack with Gatling Gun. Namely; Gatling Fever > Madness Canceller or Platinum Alter or Heat Barrel.
Auto-Attack Critical - CB, this is only for fun build. This is heavily outdamaged by other skills/ builds.
Triple Action - Recently updated! Use LDR% build for this. ASPD/ Cast animation speed dependent. Uses 1 Spirit Sphere per cast. Skill Type version of Auto-Attack Eternal Chain (Not Affected by Double Attack Damage Modifiers).
Round Trip - LDR%/ CB/ CAB. Mostly used just for farming and for crowd control.
Fire Rain - Actually deals high amount of damage when hit. Recommended LDR% but other builds can use it as well. REMOVES ALL TYPES OF GROUND SPELL/TRAPS! Even that pesky PNEUMA!
Grenade Launcher
Note: Grenade Launcher Build is like the "Caster Type" of Rebellion. 100% Relies on offensive skills for massive damage output. It is advised to use LDR% Build for all types of skills.
You can modify your stat distribution to;
Main Stats: DEX, STR, INT
Sub Stats: AGI, VIT
Highest is DEX of course, followed by STR due to most Grenade Launcher skills are customized in LeikaRO to scale with STR and the heavy weight catalysts/ammo you need to carry. INT for sp requirements. Highly advised to use with Service for You & Poem of Bragi. Just use ASPD Potions if cast animation speed becomes a problem.
New Mechanic: Sphere Loading
- No longer replaces Bullets and has a completely separate loading mechanic. Basic thought of Bullets = Auto Attacks; Spheres = Skills.
Ex. You can auto attack with grenade launchers with Bullets but you can't use skills without the Spheres.
Howling Mine - Requires Projection Landmine Catalyst and Flicker to trigger detonation. Detonation sequence ONLY WORKS WHEN IT HITS THE TARGET. The EXPLOSION goes through Parrying, Auto-Guard, Weapon Blocking, Cast-Off Cicada Shell and Defender.
Dragon Tails - A high scaling ATK skill that hones to marked targets by Crimson Marker (Can hit all 3 marked targets independently). This skill can Miss.
Bind Trap - One of the best traps in game but hard to use. Ignores DEF, FLEE and Reductions. Scales with caster's DEX + foe's current HP. If the enemy is MVP, uses caster's MAX HP instead. The 1 thing to take note of is the massive MSPD reduction it does to enemies, especially on high levels as it affects MVPs as well. You cannot place the trap on obstructed surfaces/ MUST be clear of obstructions/ cannot overlap/stacked. Use lower levels for smaller traps if you are having a hard time placing it down.
Below are the Combos to achieve maximum dps/ Skills to be used. This is to maximize the after-cast delay some skills give when used.
Howling Dragon
Fling > Crimson Marker > Howling Mine > Dragon Tail > Flicker
Howling Dragon Trap
Bind Trap > Fling > Crimson Marker > Lure to Trap > Howling Mine > Dragon Tail > Flicker
Spread Shot - Only fun with Poem of Bragi. Mediocre damage, but good for AoE when spammed.
Ground Drift - Recently updated. Acts like a trap/ can be stacked but does not detonate all at once because of the knockback/ spammable through ASPD/ Cast Animation Speed. Scales with base level above 100. The skill applies the status effect of the equipped sphere on its explosion radius BY CHANCE. This skill goes through Parrying, Auto-Guard, Weapon Blocking and Cast-Off Cicada Shell.
