Making an archer class

Recently I've been going on a spree of jumping from character to character after reaching 150-ish
including an NL, Kanna, Mercedes, and Beast Tamer.

I'm honestly just trying to find a class worth spending all my funds on. I heard dex% was cheap so I thought maybe an archer class would be good to make? I already made a merc, but they needs tons of funding which I can't dedicate myself to.

I was thinking of making either an adventurer BM or WH ---> Which would be better in terms of damage? assuming that im NOT super funded, but decently funded

I'd go with Wild Hunter. Bow masters require the same if not more funding than mercedes.

[quote=destrutionx]The thing about Bowmasters unless you're bossing everyone is going to out damage you, and even then while bossing most classes will out damage you. I find it's a job you play because you really enjoy the class rather than something that you play because you want to be insanely OP. Wild hunters have an easier time mobbing and their mobility is a lot more solid when compared to Bowmasters, but as you upgrade on a Bowmaster it feels really rewarding to hit those landmarks. Also in the higher stages of funding 1mil+ range your buffs give you almost 600-800k range which is a lot considering we have a small number of buffs.
Depending on how much funding you have if you can afford to make a bowmaster with at least 200-400k Range then it'll be enjoyable, because bowmasters are all about bossing not mobbing.[/quote]

then we got that 25% att from the most recent skill revamps over in korea

I think my problem was a bit more extreme
I have at least 4 friends who have started funding BMs since they tried them out. The ability to transfer nx is too appealing, not to mention BMs keep getting buffed.
That being said, I think WHs are currently ahead in terms of DPS. Not sure about after the KMS patch though.

Wild Hunter. I had the same problem as you (check all my characters o.o ) and I finally found one I'm sticking with. At least give it a try
