Investigator with Gunslinger dedication


Advice


I've been trying to work out if an Investigator with a Gunslinger dedication is workable.

It seems there are some nice potential synergies, since Devise a Stratagem allows you to not fire (and thus need to reload) if you're wasting a shot.

If you go Way of the Pistolero and build a Charisma investigator, at level 10 the Slinger's Reload allows you to Demoralize when you reload, which would allow for this kind of turn:

> DAS (and Recall Knowledge with the Know Weaknesses feat)
> Strike
> Reload and Demoralize

Has anyone tried an Investigator with Gunslinger dedication? If so, how did you find it?

This is a free archetype game, which should make things easier.

I haven't played this, but I have toyed with the idea, and I really like it.

Gunslingers have quite a few feats that are really good on a hit and punishing on a miss. These feats pair excellently with Devise a Strategem!

The easiest to grab are:
Risky Reload
Alchemical Shot

Also, investigators often don't have a good use for their reaction, so picking up fakeout is great!
