Shad or Db?

Hi guys! I have both a shad and a DB, but I can't decide which to main. I'll mainly be bossing if that helps. Which one is stronger for bossing/will get revamped the most?

Depends on how much funding you have. If you have minimal funding, that would only achieve a 30k range, Shad > DB as you have not reached the maximum potential of Assassinate and DBs without funds plain suck.
With funding... DBs all the way.

Just a suggestion (don't take it if damage matters most), but you can buy tradeable equips (thief top/bottom, vip pendant/belt [or whatever], earrings, cape, and so on). The hat might be the most difficult to get, but you can always end up buying two. The only thing that will be added to your cost other than that would be for your katara and shield.

I have had both in the past. Ever since the DBs revamp, they have been better than shads for bossing. So make a DB.

Shads imo, flip the coin hyper is too op and their lvl 170 hyper attacks by itself while you can use other skills

[quote=innocentguy]Shadower because you can share nx and DB stole most of the skills from them. Shadower got smoke to protect them from all damage and meso explosion, many more good skills.[/quote]

Lol. Flashjump and Shadow partner are the skills they "stole" and those came from NL.

DB is stronger than Shad's by a lot (Asura).

I'm guessing DBs will be revamped a bit more during RED because Nexon stated that they will receive "special treatment" along with Cannon Shooters.
Personally, I think DBs are better for bossing.

Not to mention we totally "stole" midnight carnival, pick pocket, smokescreen, and assassinate.
