I've looked through some guides and i think each different path to take for a bowman is great, im just wondering one thing which path seems to be mroe wanted for pq's? Like the Zakum pq, etc. I wasn't able to find the answer in the crossbowman vs hunter ultimate decision guide.

The one with a higher level of Sharp Eyes. Both classes are equally accepted aside from that.

in PQs no one really cares either way. but at 140 BM starts to pull away from MM in terms of 1v1 damage meaning that their preferred at bosses, but it's not like people say "urgh an MM" and then don't invite you because of that. you'll still get into boss runs about as easily unless there's always a BM that's at your level or higher waiting.

MM at Scarlion and other weapon-cancel abusing bosses: probably should be more preferred since their Snipe attack still deals 199k damage.

[/quote] I think it's the other way around for the 140. MMs pull away from BMs at 140 and BMs get passed MMs at 180, but the rest is so right. People think MMs suck because we don't have hurricane. People mainly cares about what lvl your SE is, but whether it's smart to get SE first or not is a different story.

People still awe in amazement as I progress through the dojo in a party, they didn't know such a skill was possible~

MMs can easily outdamage BMs on pretty much any bosses o.o Only tricky part is they need max snipe. High level boss' defense kills alot of damage from BMs.
