pierce does not need charging any more.....
Also, you will be able to spam snipe like one per second. but damage wise snipe is too good and perhaps the nighest damage single hit skill that can be spammed.
For example, if u have 20-25k range, you can spam 3 mil snipes at Hila, Hilla will be down and out in less than 5 min. All you need to do is get a basic set of CRA Bowman set. Only the Xbow would be costly... like 300 mil.
All together, marksman is for the average Joe who wish to decent damage and for moderately funded people to hit close to damage caps.
They are not squishy any more as they have a shield that absorbs 65 % damage when hit. Also , if you need more control, just get an HB nebulite and add your bottom.... <3...

I deleted mine one day after making it, so boring imo

I guess I'll be the stick in the mud and say that I don't enjoy mine as much as I used to. Spammable snipe just means playing the game becomes even less engaging. If I recall correctly, pierce used to involve a charging mechanism, but now that's gone, too. No more strafe, either, but that's been gone a while.

Honestly, the only fun thing (for me) about being a marksman is the hookshot grappling skill. Sometimes when I feel like being Batman, I'll go on my marksman and just whip around a map for a couple of minutes while grunting "I'M BATMAN" multiple times before getting bored and playing something else.

Are Wind Archers as squishy as Merc and BM?

I think Wind Archers are more fun and even stronger

Yes... Love the damage of Piercing Arrow. Watch as the damage go from 100ks > 200k per line lol
Though it should be the first hit does the most and does less since arrows have to pierce each and everyone of them losing its momentum... Physics Applied

You get spammable Snipe at 155, Pierce is a great mob skill, and relatively simple gameplay, and archer equips are dirt cheap.
Main problems I've found are that its squishy, which isn't too much of a problem anymore, and Pierce only hits in a straight line, which isn't much of one either
