Players will have access to a maximum of 2 cartridges starting at level 30. This upgrades to 3 cartridges at level 88.

A Gunbreaker's Panoply
Form & Function
“While they fulfilled a role similar to the Sultansworn, the royal protectors of Queen Gunnhildr eschewed each plate and chainmail as Ul'dahn paladins prefer. The reasons for this are twofold: Firstly, the Bozjan monarch was, above all, a shaman whose religious duties required concentration in silence—a silence too fragile to survive the ambient clanking of armored guards. Secondly, the annealed metals of traditional armor are poor conductors of aether, so those legendary gunbreakers chose to clothe themselves in long leather coats more appropriate to their craft.
While trends of fashion come and go, this fundamental preference for leathers over steel has survived, and modern gunbreakers strike a silhouette shockingly like that of their precursors.
