Blast your foe repeatedly with both pistols.

Number of shots: 8
Combo Finisher: Physical Projectile (20% chance)

To

Defensive Barrage ( Provvisory Name ) (3/4 casting time) (4 ip)
Blast your foe ( 4 shots ) then leap backward.

Damage 101 (0.3)
Number of shots: 4
Combo Finisher: Leap
Leap Range: 450

Another build who can play with Black Poweder.
Ofc you will trade damage ( half ) and ip ( to gain stealth u will use 3 and 5, as for d/p ) to gain stealth benefits, but also u will can build up dmg with sneak attack, might stacks and toughness.

What do you think?

i think if unload ended on a blast finisher, P/P would work better. with some reliance on traits (namely boosting initiative gain from entering stealth), it could even be viable, as sneak attack is a good hybrid skill.

maybe add a backwards leap (not that long though) to body shot, since P/D also has low mobility.

oh and backward leaps can’t really be leap finishers, i think, since they’re technically not an attack. see: sword ranger.

you have to know that your leap out at the end also ruin overall DPS which is the point (and also only 1 skill that actually do dmg) of Unload.
