Hey guys as the title says I want some help on how to optimise my fallen aasimar gunslinger. I will be using Matthew mercer's gunslinger and the character is at level 1 right now. I will be using him in the upcoming Waterdeep: Dragon Heist campaign that comes out in September. The stats for my character :rolled + racial stats are shown below.
Cha 11
Dex 17
Str 8
Con 13
Wis 16
Int 12

Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you

Which Aasimar are you playing? Protector, Scourge, or Fallen?

So you're telling me..

You're an angel with a shotgun
Fighting til' the wars won
You don't care if heaven won't take you back?

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Right. Unfortunately Fallen's ability key's off charisma, which you don't have much of and which Gunslinger is not going to gain much benefit out of. Protector would have given a way to add a little radiant damage to one Shot per turn.

With those odd scores I would want to add +1 to dex and +1 to Con at level 4. For the next ASI youi would iehter want to get dex to 20, or consider the Sharpshooter Feat.

you could get Crossbow expert to be able to fire into melee without disadvantage, and maybe skulker if you are planning on doing a lot of sneaking.
