General

I think the TS mentioned v2. So, status resist, iframes and general utilities that Mercedes have will be an advantage over MM.

But seriously it's up to funding and character control(knowing what the DR animation is helps alot as well as resisting yourself from just slamming down your main attack key).

Depends on the boss. If its like MAgnus or Chaos Vellum, I rather play a Merc. If its like Zakum or HT, I rather play MM.

@QuantumLegend:

Oh, I was referring to future patches (although they're in the future so yea you are right hehe). Uh pre unlimited I believe mercedes are best as the damage cap hinders a ton of classes. A merc hitting maxes per hit would best a pre unlimited marksman. Post unlimited/ revamps, wind archers destroy every other archer dps wise (although the adventurer revamp may change things around and bowmasters will hopefully regain their former glory while marksmen receive some nice new and improved mobbing skills/ less damage but more uniqueness <3

Wild hunters are stronger, with 270% hurricane vs. Mercedes 130% x2 hurricane, but I'm fairly sure WA are weaker. They can only go up to 120 atm anyway.

I endorse this message ^

but merc is better if you're funded. We cant clear mobs as fast, or have awesome mobility, or any i-frame skills

Not sure early on but I don't think mercedes can beat snipes damage @ 195...
