Question about UA corsair

This is my dillema. Ive always wanted a corsair, and my buddy just made a UA one and im really jelly. Lol. Should I take the few days to grind up a CK and make a UA? Or start from scratch and get shark from the quest? How hard is that quest and is it worth it?

[quote=UberNat]Anyone complaining about hp problems is noob and doesnt know how to properly use potions.
Anyone saying ice splitter and flamethrower are better, is wrong, you hit more with Shark Wave and it can be use while in the air, it can also att monsters above and below you, unlike ice splitter and flamethorwer. This is great for mp3 during 70-80 because you can just stand on top of the cab and spam SHark Wave.
Anyone complaining about the lack of use slots is noob, There is no need to have more than 8 sets of bullets, and unless ur using poor quality potions, you will not have any issues.
The UA Corsair is 100% worth it and if you dont agree with me then you obviously dont know how to properly use your corsair >__>[/quote]

hp: given that sairs only have about 5k hp, 300hp is a noticeable difference. a 300 hp difference, after you add rex earrings and a czhelm, becomes a 360 hp difference, which with hb becomes a 576 hp difference. i don't know about you, but 576 hp is quite a bit. also, most low hp character will have auto hp? so it's really not an issue of being able to use potions

sharkwave: indeed during 3rd job sharkwave is very useful for both its vertical and horizontal ranges, but once you hit 4th job it becomes obsolete. nowadays, the only time i ever use sharkwave is when someone goes "omg UA sair, sharks pl0x" or when i run out of bullets on a boss run because i forgot to recharge beforehand (for the lolz; not for the damage)

use slots: 8 slots for bullets, 1 slot for return scrolls, 1 slot for pet food, 1 slot for energizers, 2 slots for mana bulls, 6 slots for honsters, 1 slot for power elixirs (because ani tends to give them out), 1 slot for cube fragments, 1 slot for all cures, 1 slot for all those mushroom mount coupons i still have left, and that leaves 1 slot left for whatever scroll/recipe/mastery book you may encounter. it really is a tight squeeze in my opinion. i am constantly having to drop things because i simply have not the space for it

equip slots: basically my equip slots are always full with untradeable items that i would like to keep: medals, mon, helms, etc.

etc slots: this i can usually keep in order. only think i really need to keep in here are magic rocks and magic seeds. but it can still get a bit crowded when doing quests that require a bunch of etc drops.

but what do i know? apparently i'm a noob~

UA sair here. IMO not worth it.
The Loss of inventory slots -.- I recently bought some USE slots because I needed rooms for bullets. 6.4k nx for 8 new slots. UAs get 4 less slot in each category.
I rarely use sharks and yes flamethrower/ice is a lot better. Sharks does help with training but just in the gunslinger and early 3rd job.
THE HP problem sucks a lot too
and don't just make one for the equips, because when i had the equips I've noticed other normal gunslingers/outlaws were outdamaging me a lot.
I regret making my sair, I wish I have made a Drk or shad.

if you are willing to take the time make a ck
Benefits :
CK Blessing + 24 attk (theres 2 blessings now )
It also counts as Explorer's Fairy bless w.e (if you dont have a 120+ on that acc or w.e)
Peridots are way easier then the soul lights and lunar dews or w.e they called
To lvl up your sairs shark wave you lvl up 10 times rather then having to get more soul lights or w.e they called
Non Benefits
You have to get to lvl 120
KoCs lvl fast but get boring if you don't know where to train X_X
UA sair has less slots for bullets

[quote=sleepyheadXIII]Sharks isn't needed to help faster lvling as like a Bucc. Honestly, the only thing I see worth being a UA for is the medal and 24blessing which even then the only exclusive of those 2 is the medal.
So for a 2atk medal, you lose inventory space for your bullets/potions and less hp.
Sharks isn't even worth for normal sairs to get in a normal quest way.

@nicksroom12:
Sharks isn't much better than fire/ice combo when maxed. Heck, I think it was even proven that when both lvl30, fire/ice combo>sharks in Damage.
Plus sharks is pretty useless once 4th job hit and in your boat almost constantly. Overall it's not worth the less inventory space and hp.[/quote]

but but but....
i totally rely on sharks when i run out of bullets during boss runs! =D
oh wait....that's because i'm missing slots QQ
