Buccaneer

is there something like Buccaneer hell?

so hey, I made a buccaneer with the 1+1 event potions, and the grinding from 70-72 was so slow, that i thought i might be doing something wrong. does anyone have any tips regarding skill use, combo's training spots and stuff on how to speed up grinding.

thanks in advance

Made 2 buccs to 200. First was made day of pirate's release, got to 161 before big bang. Second made August 17 of last year, 200 this past January. Both non-UA but 2nd has sharks after getting to 200. Experienced zero hell.

Mob up to charge energy then spam blast. Fairly simple right? Suggestions have already been posted so no need to repeat combos and whatnot.

[quote=andrewthepro]Wrong. Even training at jesters is "hell" for an unfunded level 70 marauder. You're comparing the current level up rate to old maple, in the sense that leveling now is no where near how hard it was back then. 3rd job levels are still concered hell levels for marauders. Nice try though[/quote]

Wrong. Jesters isn't the only training location at that level, nor are 3rd job levels considered hell for Marauders. Oh sure, if you go to maps where EVERYONE trains and get yourself KS'ed of course it's bad training because you don't have the mobility, AoE or damage to consistently keep up with other classes. Your logic is based on the premise that EVERYONE must train at the same location; if you take a Marauder to other training spots they do relatively well. Not the best, but decent enough.

Nice try though. But your logic is based on KS'ing hotspots where no class but KS'ers excel, and that's not the ONLY training available.

With aliens, lv70-120 should be a joke for any class. I got from lv70 to 4th job in a few hours on my Jett during a 2x event.

There is no such thing as Hell levels for ANYONE anymore.

[quote=andrewthepro]Bucc hell levels only exist if you're a non UA and don't have sharks[/quote]

No they don't. Hell levels don't exist for any class unless you're training at the most horrible places you can think of or decided to go pure-secondary stat. Training is easy as heck for ANY class; just because Marauders are the slowest right now doesn't mean that it's "hell".

[quote=Toukie]Why does everyone think our class has [i]any[/i] sort of "Hell" to it these days? e___e
Maple's easy enough now, and has been for a while. I believe people are simply "lacking patience", and thus are calling it "hell" to make it sound harder that it honestly is. Really, what people used to call "Hell" died when we received Big Bang. It's been a cake walk for us since.

Anyways, on topic.
Much like previous posters, I'd simply just suggest waiting 2 days for our revamp. If training now is too slow or boring for you, then you'll be happy once the 8th comes~[/quote]

I agree. There was this huge hype about levels 100-110 being extremely tedious and whatnot and I bought into it when training my BM, but realized that those levels weren't so tough on my Bucc. And breezed past those levels on my DS. If I'd have to really break it down, 10-40 is super easy, 40-50 is still pretty easy, 50-70 is a joke, 70-80 is blurry (I can never remember what I do for these levels...), 80-90 is actually fun, and 90-110 is somewhat easy. After 110, everything just gets boring, though...

I don't understand what was so difficult about Marauder-Hood... I'm actually at a bigger roadblock right now at level 144. I just... can't find the motivation to train at LHC anymore. That, and my guild has moved onto SH without me

It's slower training. You have less range than other classes. Just go to a maple with a big spawn and bacspinblow till your charge is up . And max the little blast thing first

Just use corckscrew to mob and charge up energy and then energy blow. If energy isnt ready do corkscrew *turns around* backspin blow. If u want u could do corkscrew backspin and summersault. Your timing is essence but itll work trust me if not stick to the energy blow when its charged
