I think about creating sth like this:
:exo::lak::bst:
:jan::malehero::inv:
:mnk::art::ora:
What do you think? I thought about Princess in place of arty but Willed gunners use phis. dmg so arty debuff would be useful.
So far i have 2 gunners + main and it's cutting through everything.:D
Waiting for advices.

I previously thought about doing a build like this, and I'm going to tell you what feedback I got from it:

Get a shaman and kick the oracle

ditch the arty for either a viking or a princess. Viking is for freeze, which, along with your stuns, will disable the enemy, forcing them to HG instead of awaken. Princess is just to intimidate your opponents :-0

another optional thing you could do is ditch one of the guns for a cannon (you already have the arty). This way, princess doesnt own you with bombing campaign and you have a little more stun leverage (cannon covers more area)

Strategy is pretty simple. Your melee in front basically do nothing. Sure, they can attack sometimes, and BT has some stun pressure, but your objective is stun, not damage. Exo, however, needs to NEVER attack. You need him ready to Mana Seal when you get 2 counters on the monk. also, dont use will on the guns/cannons. You want a very controlled stun game. Freeze whenever you can with the viking, guard when you can't. Think carefully when firing the guns. With 3 guns, you want nothing less that PERMA STUN.

its in bold, italics, and underline. listen to it -.-

100+ pvp things get really tough for gunners. Monks being able to awake 2-3 times in a turn, scrolls, musicians, ect. I think it boils down to AP management on your mercenaries and playing smarter.

Despite running a 3 gunner formation, those scrolls can still be mega tricky to get down. I get too greedy with my gunners too early making them lose too much precious AP for when I need it. Combined with warcry and smoke bomb, you just can't bring them down.

Musicians are tough, especially those that run stun pressure with requiem. Without scrolls, your forced to pick between being perma-stunned or eating the requiem. I am almost considering jumping the scroll bandwagon every time lol. Too expensive though so I never do.

Play smart, be flexible, and you will always do well :D
