Well each weapon can hold it's own, it's a weapon after all, it really comes to how you choose to use them.
Being a Gunner I have 1/2 the def of Blade Masters period, so it get's very tricky in some fights as I don't have the leeway to take that 1 hit usually.
The worst part of being a gunner is that I can't just go all out on the monsters when I'm with a team, I risk messing the team up or worse. So I seriously have to pick my shots and be semi-supportive. (debuffing)
Or clust shots aimed particularly and timed specifically to take enemies from the sky, it's possible to control the monster totally but I can't actually get in to do what I could do.
In Offline, I fight Uragaan and just unload pellets on it then triple burst water and it dies before I run out of water shots. I feel each weapon is that way, so I settle back and let my team mates get it in also.
That's really the key to online, just knowing what your team mates are doing and avoid interrupting them.
The plus side is that all my shots are magnetically attracted to where I aim now.
I'm Unamerica and you can too.
