well we all know the the corsair's ship is godly but the bs thing about it, is that it breaks. how can corsairs attack bosses with their godly ship full time if the boss like zakum or horntail keeps hitting them , which will eventually cause the ship to break? rapid fire isnt gonna do better than hurricane or is it? answer or correct me(if im wrong) NICELY and POLITELY.

rapid fire does basically the same overall damage as hurricane but a bit more % damage i guess

DPS comparison without any buffs outside of what your class has (photobucket) DPS comaprison with your typical party buffs like SE and SI (not that it does anything for RF or TT) (photobucket) Maybe the numbers will help you answer that bit about which attack does what. You learn to dismount the ship when the boss is about to do 1/1 or something of the like, and in this way you guard your ship's HP and make it last longer. And you know, even when the ship breaks, okay, you no longer do the highest damage (for all of 90 seconds) but you also do not do the lowest, because RF is still a rather kick ass skill, even though comparing it to the likes of something like Canon makes it seem like an utter loser.
