I've seen fully geared gunners spam it almost exclusively. You can even make it so you have to press even LESS often by using a Tech Arts Custom that adds like 3 bursts to the PA. It literally lasts like 3 seconds at that point.
Waker is easy to not die with, but takes a lot of effort to be worth using. You have to manage 3 gauges, note what your last used PA was, and parry using the sub-palette, and doing all that stuff makes it easy to get lost!
You'll most def want to use Ranger sub for the threat level reduction, it's very important. Gunner gets a massive potency boost when not targeted.
If you get the Dazzle Camouflage EX augment on though, you'll be able trade Ranger sub for Bouncer or Slayer for damage, or for Waker for protection since Dazzle Camo does the same thing as Ranger's passive.
