Another one for the stamp collection, here's a 5-3 Gunner run with Fireteam Elitists @inexorablewarrior and Devilsno1. No Demo bleed to rely on this time, so we're having to be more on-point with balancing the trash clear and damage on the Queen.

The new Mini-nades are a nice addition to the armoury, with much faster cooldowns and 3 charges, and despite the reduced damage and AOE it still does enough damage to kill runners on impact. Detonating on impact also means it can be used on enemies on the ceiling, which the default nade has problems with. It's no longer a "Nuke-the-room" button, but is useful as a reliable knockdown with Disorienting Blast that's almost always ready for use.

Let's Rock + Short Controlled Bursts is yet again a great combo with the Auto-Burst fire of the Astra, making it laser accurate, and the stability bonus is also very useful for keeping the Jaipur's absurd recoil in check. Jaipur's an interesting CQW, its pellet-count helping to near-instantly proc Focus Fire and Overwhelming Fire (and other classes' on-hit procs like a Tech's Resonating Impact), while having the tight accuracy of an SMG.

For attachments, I've focussed on firerate for the Astra given its huge magazine, and a balance of firerate and reload speed on the Jaipur - the new Compound Magazine is a very nice balanced option for that. On other classes, I might look for something with some bonus stability, but SCB+LR has the Gunner covered!
