The Artillerist is the heavy-weapon wielding tank of the Gunner class in Lost Ark. They deal massive amounts of damage with their big gun from a distance and withstand lots of incoming attacks. To get the most out of the Artillerist advanced class, you will want to make sure you are running the right build. Here is our Lost Ark Artillerist Build Guide.
Artillerist Class overview
The Artillerist is a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield. Itshigh-damage ranged attacks and high survivabilitymake it one of the most rewarding advanced classes to play. The only drawbacks of the Artillerist are the long attack animations and lower mobility. Luckily, the Artillierist’sIdentity Skillhelps outweigh these slight cons.
The Artillerists Identity Skill charges up yourFirepower Gauge. When this gauge fills up, you can enter a large stationary turret. In this mode, you will have access to a bunch of high-damage attacks until the gauge is depleted. This is why you should strive tofill up your Firepower Gauge as often as possible. Your build should work to increase your effectiveness both in and out of the turret.

Best Artillerist build
The Berserker will perform best when your build focuses on maximizing theoverall damage outputof the class. While this specific setup does lack mobility, it’s ideal for players looking to do huge AoE damage from a distance. Players will receive skill points each time they level up. Players should work toward the below build as they level up to 50. We recommend youfirst max out skills that you use most oftenor are the most powerful, then fill in the rest of the skills from there. Players canreset their skills at any time, so feel free to play around with maxing different skills.

Artillerist Engravings
Once you’ve reachedlevel 50, you can start taking advantage ofEngravings. Each class hastwo Class Engravingsthat slightly alter the way your class functions. For Artillerists, these are Barrage and Firepower Enhancement. We recommend that players use theFirepower Enhancement, as Barrage is not really viable due to its movement lock.
You will also have access to somegeneral Engravingsthat can further increase the Artillerist’s damage. These can be leveled up a maximum of three times and activated using Engraving points on rings, necklaces, and earrings. Below are a few great Engraving options for Artillerist.

Awakening Skills are extremelypowerful abilitiesthat have longer cooldowns. You will unlock these by following along with Beatrice’s post-level-50 questlines. Each class hastwo unique Awakening Skills. However,only one can be equippedat a time. We recommend you use theMissle BarrageAwakening Skill, as it is capable of doing the most damage and refilling your FIrepower Gauge.
This is an all-around Artillerist build, but keep in mind that there are builds that are more focused on specific types of content. Builds are somewhat subjective, so feel free to tweak this build to fit your playstyle as needed.
