Oak Barrel was sooooo good. It reminds me of my days playing Wind Waker on the Gamecube. xD

[quote=tricks122]You used MP as a Buccaneer? Something's wrong. Perseverance should cover you, at the latest, once you get to third job; I haven't touched an MP potion in quite some time. The Health regeneration component isn't great, but once you get more health it doesn't get bad; I rarely use Health potions since I had about 30k HP, but we do take a fair bit of damage.

Part of your bad damage is how your AP is probably not well aligned, and I don't want to be rude, but if you're somehow wasting MP I think you might have skilled incorrectly as well. The damage is still bad, but it shouldn't be so bad it's unplayable; remember, your gear is sort of antiquated so you won't tend to compete with 'twinks' or mules who will just beat your gear. I came back from a two year break and my damage was horrible; I got some more modern gear and it went to 'tolerable', even if I would've been better off investing in other classes. But you can definitely manage the 'average' bosses as a Buccaneer, it's the further bosses(Normal/Hard Magnus, Hard/Hell Gollux, etc) that tend to pose a problem/challenge due to our limitations.[/quote]

Meh i'll deal with it later

[quote=leeway46]Yeah someone ig told me the same thing about hitting 145

Yeah i was told Empress set is pretty worthless now, i remember when a friend gifted me the set, he worked hard for it, he had three whole sets (minus the shoulder), now it's like damn, those 5 days of constant work is pointless now.

I'm enjoying my Pally, tanking like everything lol, it's like, "Oh you hit me? I'll see your 1hp damage and raise you 200k!"

Bucc really need one now after this latest update. It's kinda not fun anymore, I never really played for the Damage, but damn their damage is horrendous now. Ontop of they take hella damage and run thru MP like a mofo.

I appreciate the input everyone.[/quote]

[quote=tricks122]Buccaneers are weaker than a lot of other classes. They aren't as weak as they were before, but are still pretty bad, and the changes to other classes have indirectly made us much worse(Many classes which benefited from Speed Infusion either no longer do, or benefit a lot less). 145 is a week's worth of casual work at most if you're efficient about it, and Shark Tooth(That's Empress, correct?) isn't really important because of Fafnir gear outperforming it.

Buccaneers have always needed a huge revamp, or drastic balance changes. Nexon is just notoriously bad at doing those sorts of things, so we're either going to get Buccaneers that are bad, or 'Buccaneers' that are like other classes and retain little of the play-style.

Have fun on your Paladin. They got nerfed a while ago, but I still think they're better than Buccaneers despite that; it's unlikely that Buccaneers will end up outperforming them anytime soon.[/quote]

I started a Paladin with my BC slot, I'm enjoying it, made it 106.

Bucc's seem a lot weaker now compared to when I left honestly.
They need a huge revamp.

I'm gonna stick with my Pally for a while.

You can buy AP resets for mesos now. Bucc's in general are pretty clunky and a little weak compared to more flavor of the month classes but play what you like. Getting to lvl 145 should take you around 3-4 hours on a burning character now.
