Guns without Demolitionist Mastery?

Hello, I’m just getting into the game, thinking about classes that I want to play, and I am wondering if using guns is only good with Demolitionist classes. Can you use guns with primarily caster Masteries like Occultist and Arcanist?

Druid… (Shaman+Arcanist)
2h ranged using primal strike.

Spellbreaker (Nightblade+Arcanist)
2h Ranged using Blade Burst (limited support but technically works) More of a hybrid setup

Witchblade (Soldier+Occult)
Either 2h/DW/1h ranged. Using Cadance

If you have a Silverbolt you can make pretty much any combination of masteries work …

OK cool, so it is viable. Thanks!

There exists a lovely 2H Aether rifle, that I will someday bother with.

That’s all I know.

I eagerly await dual 2H classes, and twin gunning Silverbolts.

i think elementalist can also work very well with primal strike rifle, mortar, totems, wind devils etc.
