Thanks for all the feedback guys, i think I'm gonna go with marksman only because of how much bows cost atm, but also because of snipe, that's gonna be really hilarious.

Wind Archers. Even after the nerf, Wind Archers will still be a viable class to play. Once the nerf hits, Wind Archers will probably never be touched again for a long time, but BM and MM will most likely experience changes because of the simple fact that they are explorer classes.

Wind Archer always wins polls.

If you're talking about Bowmasters, they're pretty cool.
They're just not my cup of tea

I'd go Wind Archer if you're talking absolutely no funding. No mastery books saves you ohh idk around 100 something mil? I don't know an actual number so I could be wrong. But if you're willing to shell out a bit of funding for books, most people will agree on MM. I personally haven't played one but I have always liked my Bow Master and I've already made it my main. Played it for around a month and I'm 178

[quote=LokiBare]Marksman would be great if you're looking for minimal funding, Fafnir Xbows are cheaper than Fafnir bows (at least in GAZED).
Marksman have passive boss % on snipe, which has 0 cd at ~155, and do more damage the further they are from the boss. Damagewise you'd get to see a huge number you normally wouldn't with the same amount of funds. Pierce mobbing is amazing and there's a hyper that gives it +2 mobs hit later on. MM also get a puppet skill for bossing which is pretty useful.

Wind Archers are also great with little funds because of all of their atk buffs. They're a little more mobile than MM because of windwalk. They're pretty fun IMO but I don't like the color scheme of the character (green/purple). You don't have to buy skill books for WA's as well so that's definitely a plus. WA's also have a puppet skill that helps a ton when bossing.

Hope this helps you make your choice ^__^v[/quote]

Im currently playing a 198 BM and its great, also cost a lot to increase range. Isnt mobbing really well but bossing is great.
If u have low funding id recommend Marksman, since they train fast and hit hard on bosses.
