Whats the best spec for a Gunslinger in PVP?

I prefer Saboteur. It has a good combination of burst, mobility, and utility. Sabotage Charge + Sabotage + Thermal Grenade + Series of Shots provides good burst. Most of your abilities can be used on the run providing good mobility. Incendiary Grenade has utility on top of being an AoE DoT and Snare. It can also be used to stop caps, and reveal stealthers. Scatter Bombs on your roll has a 3 second root that is not affected by resolve.

 

On top of all that, it's just extremely fun to play. Check out some vids by The Angry Sniper at

He plays the Imperial version (Engineering Sniper) but it'll give you an idea of what Saboteur plays like.

Is there a Sabotage class tree I can go by? Not sure if Dulfy has one up for pvp yet.

Not sure if you're asking for a saboteur class tree or if you meant guide. But if it's a class tree

 

Here's a discipline calculator at Dulfy

If you meant guide, other than the Engineering PvP guide on The Angry Sniper's YouTube channel, I don't know of anything else off-hand written or video specifically for Saboteur.

I agree on sabotage, nice aoe, lots of dots, mobile if needed and quite high dps. But its "harder" to play than typical marksman and doesnt really feel sniperish if you know what i mean :D

 

It's quite good for denying cap. The only thing it lacks is the single target burst, but for regs it's quite viable.
