Artillerist (also known as Blaster) is an advanced class for the male gunner found in Lost Ark. He is primarily a ranged class that uses heavy launchers as his main weapon.

Additional Info

“	Artillerists believe in firepower and lots of it, blasting their enemies with some of the biggest guns under the sun. They may not be the most mobile fighters, but they make up for their lack of agility with huge mechanical launchers and other hard-hitting weapons, heavy armor, and incredible destructive force.	„
