[quote=1CrazyCleric]I wouldn't say dragon strike is useless, but it definitely has less utility now, way less. You still should have level 1 dragon strike to get energy quick as well though if your Nautilus is on cool down or there aren't enough monsters (ex: at zakum arms).[/quote]
That true, even though right now energy charge duration at max level is 1 minute ( I read skill changes and no duration change after revamp ) , And Im pretty sure Nat Strike cool down in level 1 is 1 minute, thats perfect. And if its more then one minute, add some SP and it will fit great. Laser is just great at max level, 550% dmg x4 time on 10 monsters, 2200% dmg on 10 monsters ! amazing.
Also, we get awesome buffs ! Viperstition increases 15% dmg at max lvl and 70% knuckle mastery, plus status and elemental resistance. and Guard Crash is just pro - 40% chance to ignore 100% of a monster's defense at max lvl, including bosses! how great ! Waiting eagerly for revamp, and enjoying the last times of true pirate hood with my bucc and sair thanks alot for all the help!

Thank you both ! Been a great help to me.
So basically Dragon Strike gets useless, 1 Nat Strike to max energy charge and then laser. Oh well.

Energy Orb will be turning into Laser.

Books usually have specifications on what classes they work for, so you'd know if it's AFA for WH/Crossbow Masters/Bow Masters(I believe it works for all three) or an AFA for Arans. So while I assume Nautilus Strike will be similar to AFA(Cannoneers/Buccaneers and I believe Corsairs) will all use the same book, but Demo will still be changed into it.

[quote=1CrazyCleric]There's really no point in saving mastery books, it will transfer. Only reason to wait is to sell to other people.

If that was the case, they would still allow you to trade demo for nautilus strike. Regardless, nautilus strike has little utility past level 1 because it hits enough monsters to fully charge your energy, and then it's laser spam. You give the example of AFA, but there's also mercedes and aran and wildhunter AFA's, and not all of them work for all the classes lol. Just pointing that out.[/quote]
Ah ok. Btw, nice energy charging with Nat Strike. Laser at max lvl is a beast, what skill turns into laser?

Oh alright, thanks alot ! So I should max all skills that are getting replaced before the new skills will arrive and mastery books will cost way more. Thanks!
however, Nexon can suprise us, So it is better to just keep mastery books and exchange them later?

@1CrazyCleric
Just something I thought off - There are some mastery books in game that can be used for several jobs, like AFA for bowmaster and hero is same book. Since cannoneers already got Natulius Strike, and buccs and sairs will soon have it aswell, probably cannoneer's book will become buccs and sairs aswell. Im pretty sure nexon will do it. So if I will be right, it would be a good idea buying Nat Strike 20 & 30 aswell, however I might be wrong
