How the run plays
+2 projectiles and +1 pierce on every ranged weapon, +10% Damage per different Tier I item, and no melee. Damage is reduced heavily to balance the projectile count, so the Tier I item collection is the real scaling: cheap, varied, lots of them. Shotgun-style weapons multiply the projectile bonus.
Weapons
Renegade fits the Gun class best. Start with Pistol, Revolver, Shredder, SMG, Laser Gun, Medical Gun and hold six weapons of one class for the set bonus; the weapons list shows everything in the Gun class with per-tier damage.
What to buy, what to skip
Many different Tier I items, Ranged Damage, Max HP.
The shop has no favoured tags for this character.
The mistake that ends runs
Buying Tier III items early; they do not count and they cost the Tier I budget.
