After the recent patch I believe that MM have the edge over BM. I have A lvl 76 strless Ranger, and lvl 70 reg Sniper. I enjoy both classes but I want to make the stronger one since there both already third job and im capping both bases at 70 as I can use lvl 100 items with my str items, and 110 with some modifications. So witch is stronger in your opinion. I have no regrets of making either, they were both fun.

They're both quite balanced still. Aya, go with what you think would be most fun.

Overkilling monsters that you train on=bad BM 1 - MM 0

I've played both to 200 many times(illegally), and they are both quite fun. Although, I found the marksman slightly boring, since it uses strafe basically till 200, with a moment of snipe and pierce. Bowmasters are a blast cause you can walk-shoot And, hurricane is very fun, easy, and powerful.

my pap time before and after this patch is 9 minutes. my MM friend (159) before patch was 10minutes. After patch, it's 6 minutes. If all you do is boss, looking at that might give you a hand.

that's exactly my point lol. we have pinning power, which only applies to three bosses: crow, bf and anego. at anego, her time is 18mins, mine is 24. she doesn't pin, i do. crow, neither of us touch, it's basically suicide. bf is the same as crow. Pap, as i said before, she beats me now. We use the exact same strategy at pap though. in training efficiency, i'm pretty sure she beats me too. then again, i wouldn't know, because all we do is boss lol.
