Why ignore WindBreakers when it comes to bossing?

I know, I know. They have low hp. Well they have Wind walk. I don't see how hard it is to just not cancel it when you're getting attacked. They hit just as much as DWs with a much more rapid attack. They get an attack bonus from Wind walk as well, so why not use it?

I almost know nothing about bossing I also do not have experience with bossing. But arent bowmen only wanted at bosses because of SE? Wind archers do not have SE so thats why they are ignored I guess they would be better of with a nightwalker. They arent wanted either but they would be better of with a nw I guess.

It's more xbows than bowmasters.

Wind walk won't help Wind Archers if they die in one hit. Most 120 bowmen don't go to Zakum or HT because of their HP.

Unless you get hit right when you start, and there isn't a way to dodge it, then that argument is too situational. All bowmen don't even have the option of Wind walk.

Because it's a lolcygnus. Unless the Wind Breaker is a friend/guild member of mine, i'd rather take a decent attacker.
