Well, I know most of you or some of you have seen my Melee Rivals thread and I made the choice of being a Page but everytime I see a Brawler, it just makes me regret leaving it and when I'm playing a Brawler and I see a Page, the same thing, I regret leaving it. What am I suppose to do? I'm too selfish Basil. I went back to watching videos on Youtube and after thoroughly looking through I've seen both classes have their differences. I love how the Buccaneers can do so much combos but I hate how once in a while you have to use other skills to cover up for that delay time which at the same time could be fun x_x Barrage is a damn sexy skill as well. Paladins drag my attention because of Blast. I can't really decide at the same time because I like to go on mini boss runs or even bossing and I am a damage hoar so I try to look at the one with the best damage. >_> At the same time I want fairly easy training without worrying about it getting boring :P Which one advances in training, which in better damage? Which can save me money with pots for training? Either a Buccaneer or my BW to be Pally. Thank you for your help and I'm sorry for being such a pain in the arse. =P

Low dex Brawlers are the smex. I leveled so quickly through all my levels and actually had fun doing it, unlike grinding at himes on my priest. There's so much variation and actual thought process that is put into training that it makes the feeling of accomplishment when you level that much bigger and better. Dunno much about Pally's but they seem fun...I guess. o_o

Make a Paladin, and when KoC comes out (1 or 2 months), make a Thunder Breaker/Striker.

Paladins make alot of money at skeles, buccs have invincibility frames = win.

If I had the time I would totally make a bucc because of this vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=de9rUafKkkI I don't know too much about either class, but warriors in general are using PS and SB from 1-70. For Paladins, they use it in combination with elemental buffs for another 50 levels, or roughly so. Once they hit Paladin, they get Blast and ACB, which are two pretty sweet attacks. They also get Holy Charge, making them really useful to train at Skeles, and Heaven's Hammer...need I say more. But it kind of seems that you would just be using HH, then spamming ACB, then HH, then ACB, and etc. (someone correct me if I'm wrong since I'm a cb) Buccs actually seem kind of fun. They're a lot like cb's only more likely to be accepted into bossing runs because of Time Leap and Wind Booster. Transform and Super Transform make you look really awesome. Barrage is just plain smexy. But yes, they are a combo-ing class like dits because of the delay in some of their main attacks. But that makes it fun doesn't it? Not seeing one animation used over and over again.

Hmmm...I would assume that Paladin would have better damage/DPM, not sure though. My opinion remains with buc's. They are just awesome at training in general, cool moves, combos, and cooler equipment IMO. It all comes down to your opinion of the classes though, not ours.

While watching that video I was focusing on the damage the whole time trying to see which one would be better at bossing and have better damage.

Paladin, they're better at soloing.

SlyOne said: "Hmm. Which has the better damage or DPM?" Single Target - Paladin, and their damage is around the same on mobs (Buccs may be higher abit).

Paladin,Buccs are only brought to bossing cause of speed infusion and timeleap which to me is like using you only for the speed boost and reset skill thingy.they don't need it but would like it.Paladins aren't really invited per se but they do high damage early on,each build has its pros and cons.my bro has a 130 palladin and he hits 40k's on elemental weak monsters with acb so with blast its like 60-70k i believe
