Training wise, Buccaneers win, no competition. Damage, I'd say it's not such a far gap, but Bowmasters win. However, demolition is insane x.x Bossing, both are very much wanted. SE is usually for the NL's such as in Zak, but SI and TL for HT, CwKPQ, and I think PB for res? o.O

BM's aren't fun. I don't know what you guys are talking about. Life of a BM?, SE+Spam hurricane. Tell me if that's fun.

i'd say bowmasters are better at bossing and training in general. the bucc control is so freaking annoying and not even easy to mob. dragon strike + barrage is a bad combo

If you're going to be participating in boss runs (e.g. Zakum, Horntail, Ergoth) Def go with BM If you want an all around fun job go with buccaneer

What about MMs? MMs are cheap, easy to train, strong and fun! I have a sniper myself and love it :D A BM is a tad stronger then MMs at bossing but with the same amount of mesos, MM>BM @TS, Bucc>BM Bucc easier training and hella fun BM Cool, good bossing, probably fun.

kay they're like total opposites lol, ones ranged and ones physical (totally up close lol). i have no idea, I really like buccs, cause you get combos of attacks to do. BM's just stand there and click a button to hit =_=

Both are reasonably strong, and can boss. Both work well in teams. Buccs train faster. Bowmasters do not only spam hurricane, although it is their main attack move. They have arrow rain, hawk, puppet, Dragon Breath, and lots of other skills to use.

Lol like many people have stated; Buccs are better for rushing and killing mobile bosses i.e BF BMs and Corsairs (ranged classes) are better at killing more stationary bosses i.e Zakum. That's what i think. They both have great Party skills; Time leap (shorten time limit for ress), and Speed infusion (improve DPS/dpm) for buccs, and SE for Bms.
