How are TBs?

I know they are really fun to play because I tried one when they first got revamped, and I really liked it. but I heard they were bugged but I don't know exactly how. Are they still bugged?

The only bug that I am aware of was the old lack of stance bug, where when you would combo your skills you would not obtain 100% stance.

Mobbing:
you are able to start comboing once you get to 2nd job with tidal wave and shark sweep, which is a fast way to plow through mobs. In 3rd job you get two more skills to combo, Accension and Thunder, which is an even faster way to cut through mobs in flat maps. You also get gale which increases your damage by 25% when used with a 5 combo stack. In 4th job you now get Thunderbolt, a skill with both horizontal and vertical range, which can be comboed with all previous skills (ie. Thunderbolt + Shark sweep). Meanwhile, the 3rd job Gale skill is upgraded to now give 35% damage. Finally, at level 150 you obtain a hyper buff that allows you to by pass the cooldown on Gale and spam it, Gale + Thunderbolt is an amazing stationary combing skill that obliterates mobs.

Bossing:
in the earlier levels you can use Shark Punch and Shark sweep to boss, but it really starts in 4th job when you can combo Thunderbolt (5 hits + 1 from hyper) + Annihilation (7 hits with 5 combo stack). This combo is very fast. the skill Annihilation is cast before the animation of Thunderbolt is even finished.

In terms of damage:
Thunderbolt: 380% damage x 6 hits (from 2 hyper skills)
Annihilation: 420% damage x 7 hits + 20% boss and 20% PDR (from all 3 hyper skills)
Arc charger buff: increases all damage by 40% (basically shadow partner)
