Name says it all. Tell me what you think. Explanations would be appreciated.

I think they're decent. DPM isn't horrible and invincibility is a bonus, including speed infusion/time leap for party bossing.

They have their pros and cons, just like every other class. Pros: hp, invincibility, 2nd job rush Cons: Lower DPM on single targets than normal, best damage done by demolition, which is only while transformed I'd say it depends on which boss.

The pro is you can survive any boss(even PB and anego easily). the con is one lag spike and your a goner. We have useful party skills and such. So Buccs are very unique. Not the same old boring boring same skill you need skills and strategies." Buccaneers do NOT have the lowest DPS in game excluding mages.

I was with her for her first Pap run, from which I got the quest key, and it took us probably 10 minutes. I'm guessing she could have soloed it in double the time easy.

Yes, like BM/MM they are good for supporting the party as well as attacking.
