Lore

“

By igniting the residual aether surrounding their gunblade in fierce combat, the gunbreaker is able to unleash a barrage of attacks at blinding speed. As it takes a hefty toll upon the practitioner, this technique can only be performed to its full potential by masters of the gunbreaker's art.
