Which ones would be better in terms of Damage? Bossing? Training? Expenses? How have your experiences with BM/MM been? EDIT: This thread was NOT created to start a "flame war". It was simply to get input/opinions from Basilers.

In terms of damage, Maxed Hurricane and Maxed Snipe+ Strafe combo is fairly even and balanced. BM's are slightly better for moving and non-moving bosses. MM's maxed pierce does great damage on mobs for training. MM's are cheaper when it comes to crossbows and skill books.

[quote] keorynz : BM have the 2nd best DPM in the game MM have the 5th best DPM in the game... Have any more questions? [/quote] That's situational. If you're talking about solo 1v1 DPM, then they're actually pretty even until late game, when bowmasters gain a slight advantage. Markmen are never bad though. Also, since Marksmen equips are so much cheaper, they're likely to have better ones.
