Ii made an archer and i noticed that they are waaaaay more fun than sins. Right now my archer is level 12, but hes still more fun that my level 76 hermit. I miss the mobility of haste with the avodability from luck and I dont know what to play :OOOOOO

Yeah, bowmen are fun in a more indirect way. We're not bouncing everywhere like sins. We prefer to sit in one place and avoid direct fights. You rarely die in boss fights if your KB is good enough -- when I did ludi PQ way back when, I stunned Alishar with almost every double shot. And I've got to say, looking back, Ludi PQ was a lot of fun. I never made it to 3rd job on my hunter. However, I've made a Wind Archer and look forward to raining down havoc with it...

Good choice. I really like playing my hunter.

I pushed my hunter all the way to ranger, but it started getting a bit boring, so now im making a sniper that will be different in every way to my ranger to add even more variety. Ranger: double shot, fa, rain build Sniper: arrow blow, fa-less, strafe build

they have the 2nd highest damage per minute at high lvls and at 3rd job you get a skill similar to haste just with out jumping which just be scrolled easily for perma haste,....and they rock with cool looking attacks =D

I thought it was 3rd highest? Corsairs first, then heros, THEN Bm/Mm? But yeah, we have strong and useful skills, and we have the most skills that never get replaced. Mb is never replaced, pkb has it's uses, hawk is never completely replaced, rain is one of a kind, db is very helpful, arrow bomb has multi-target stunability, strafe is a good finisher, inferno is an effective lure and decent with damage aswell, and thrust for passive speed. I love bowmen because you still use all of your skills even late in the game, making us very versital and not spamming one skill for hours on end.

You left out frostprey, the only summon that freezes, pierce, the only skill that breaks the damage cap, snipe, the only skill that 1 hit KO and never misses, and puppet, great at luring mobile bosses. Oh yea. Forgot about SE. Best party skill ever!

i thought m.e also broke the damage cap

In solo? It's corsairs, then BM/MM. BMs only become better than MMs at 1v1 at like 180+ or higher. In a party, where the NLs get SE, and are apple'ed, they come second.
