Shotgun slugs: yes, they are an option. Shotguns have the scatter prorpiety, so they can fire slugs normally or buckshot attacking a cone but taking -2 to attack.
Special bullets: for firearm bullets, barring special abilities like Tomasz's, the best you can hope for are banishing bullets: they are silver and act like bane against summoned entities. I'll list other changes in equipment soon. Not much luck for explosives, they weren't even much of a prototype at the time. But you can buy the trick arrows, if you can swing around a bow.
Sam: go ahead if you want to!
All: I have a doubt about language: With the system I have in place, there's no way you can learn Czech well enough to infiltrate Prague, but I wouldn't want to trivialize the language problems.
My idea would be to grant a bonus according to the Slavic languages you already know: So Tomasz, who speaks Native Polish, could get free Proficient Czech, and Sam, knowing School Russian, could get free School Czech.
In addition or in alternative, I could let you retrain a number of Linguistic ranks.
I was planning on putting another rank in linguistics to learn the basics of the language,
Would I be able to maybe buy thunder stones made into bullets?
Or maybe develop such custom bullets with research and the gunsmithing feat?
Or should I just be happy with my +2d10+3 damage from leveling up?

Likewise, are special bullets an option?
I've already got a few silver and adamanite bullets
But what about Explosive ones, one ones that carry the special effects of some of the specialty arrows/bolts like the acid filled ones or the incendiary ones? Or ones with resiviores of holy water like Raining Arrows?
If pierce has to justify this to a requision officer he'll point out how few bullets he typically fires on a typical mission is much less than the average soldier

I'm going to be taking a level of gunslinger for dex to damage, more deads and a larger deed pool and taking the vital strike feat since I only make one attack a round anyway

Pierce would have reached forward to heal L but with the surge of psychic energy he gets better for now and he decides to focus more on ending the threat of the banshee, firing his gun as best he can at her.
Cale's father was a stage magician for a traveling theater/carnival called the Umbral Circus (around expert 6, bard 1) his mother worked with them as a medicine woman (adept class, somewhere around Lvl 3 to 5 or so maybe with a level of alchemist) and fortune teller so because of their jobs Cale had always been fascinated with real magic, and because of the stories they would tell he always wanted to be a hero, to have his name go down in legend, often making such a proclamation while play sword fighting with his fellow circus kids, whacking each other with wooden swords.
While he was at the carnival he worked the firework display and did a firebreathing act and worked with the animals.
Ever since he found that what his father actually did for a living was mostly fake, simple slight of hand and alchemical trickery, he vowed to learn real magic and real swoedsmanship and become the greatest wizard... No... Greatest hero ever known.
He took the first opportunity he could to leave his family after that point, signing up to be a bodyguard for an elf family, in particular the daughter as a result of her awakening new and powerful Psychic magics, in exchange for watching over the young woman the family taught him magic and tactics and alchemy, and he served them for a few years before the two of them left her parents to research ancient Thasolonian magics, and Cale'anon decided to continue to act as her Bodyguard, despite no longer being taught by her parrents. Cale'anon woeked as her bodyguard and magical assistat. One day he noticed That she had been burning herself out when he heard about the festival and eventually managed to convince her to live a little and join the party.
This is what would be known as a bad idea.
The party was attacked and the town was filled with monsters. Cale and his charge assisted in the removal of said monsters, mostly out of a desire to keep themselves from being killed if the city were to fall. It was hard fought but between themselves, the town guard and a few others, they managed to win the day, but Nixis wanted nothing to do with the region after that and instead decided to rejoin her family in their research, her adventuring career more or less over, and Cale's services no longer required.
Facing unemployment, Cale decided to hunt up more work for someone of his talents, whether martial or in understanding of arcane and he came across the expedition to the lost ruins and decided to try and sign up, figuring it was mostly similar to what he was originally planning on doing but with the Azlant instead of Thassilon as the dead empire he'd be looking through and finding things out about.
When listing his skills he wrote that he was a skilled swordsman, a proficient hunter (who knows how to fish m). He writes that he knows magic and languages and after some hesitation writes that he was a skilled researcher, telling himself that that last bit was just stretching the truth a bit.
Quirks
he taps his fingers together when excited,
he waves his arms a bit when he talks sometimes
he paces back and forth and talks to himself and/or his famiiliar when thinking hard on something in particular
he frequently flips a coin when bored
Likes:
Himself, alcohol, Fighting, Art,Learning new things, Fame/Power, flirting, hunting.
Dislikes
People who were born with wealth and/or magic that didn't have to earn it and don't work to maintain it, Liars, Gnolls, and Goblins
Please tell me if you want me to expand on this. I don't want to be piggybacking on someone else's quality.

Pierce grits his teeth " chose to study the occult. Do you think someone masters five languages on accident? No I studied languages and history and magic because that's how I can change the world.

That is also pierces position, downside of being a sniper is that you don't really get to weigh in on social type interactions unless there's a prolonged cease-fire
Here's saw undead horses and horse men just showing up, and multiple explosions

That Doesn't really make sense given that you'd then take a -4 to hit with every weapon and be incapable of wearing armor, you'd be a pretty shitty martial
But whatever
I guess I'll just have to have my gunslinger levels be a one level dip after all
Shame

Well, my original plan was just to take one level in gunslinger so this is strictly a buff for me since i already have my gun/armor proficiencies.
But some of the archetypes I'm seeing are very nice too, and might encourage me to take at least four levels in gunslinger

Well, from looking at it, i can give up my gunslinger weapon/armor proficiency for the combat gunner tradition which includes the barrage or sniper tree and the gun Kata talent
