I really getting pissed off with ppl say that shadowers arnt useful when it comes to boss runs. What skill ur expecting to gain from us. I thought the whole point in boss runs was to kill the boss not get 1 lame ... skill from use (haste). Hello, shadower is a very good class to party with. we can out damage any class when we use meso explosion, we dont die as much as other 4th job class since we have losts of avoid skills at 4th job. But i guess were just hated cuz we have the avoid skill Thats like saying theres no point in making a dit/shadower at all I guess meso explosion is a waste of skill, ds is a waste of skill, sb is a waste of skill, bstep is a waste of skill, meso gaurd is a waste of skill U know what lol, the whole rouge/dit/cb/shadower is a pointless class I guess having the highest avoid class in the game is really a pointless class to play with, and O iforgot to mention that there coolest moves in the game is a pointless also I guess a lvl 100 sin is much much much more better then a lvl 120 shadower Now I understand what it means to be a shadower and just stay as a soloer class Thanks other mapler class for making the dit class a useful class to party and boss run with

I know what you mean, I've been used as a haste slave for my friends when they trained... And I didn't even get any exp. No way! I think Shadowers are pretty cool, they have better moves than NL's. I mean seriously we get to throw 3 stars at 4th job. Lame. >.> Shadowers have Smokescreen no? When I grind with my shadower friend, his smokescreen is very useful x) And I've seen shadowers solo Zak before, it looks pretty pro. Don't be so downed, Shadowers are one of the best jobs there is!

Shadowers are not useless when ti comes to boss runs. They aren't as strong as some other classes, but that doesn't really matter, unless you're going for a speed-run. You are disliked because of your low DPM, not because of your avoid... why would people hate you for your avoid> Meso explosion does a lot of damage in a short period of time, but has relatively low DPM , given the time it takes to drop the mesos. You can do a lot of damage quickly, but even with meso explosion, you're kind of weak overall. Also, saying that shadowers aren't very useful at boss runs (which isn't very true) is not the same as saying that entire class is pointless. A level 100 hermit could actually be better than a level 120 shadower, just as a level 100 hermit could be better than a level 120 Night Lord. At level 120, your new skills have so few points in them as to be insignificant, so it all comes down to funding.

Idk what your talking about, ive never had trouble getting into boss runs, people just overexaggerate that so that we at least look bad in one aspect, but we arnt the worst, just not the best either.
