Versatile class?

Hello guys:
I'm returning to maplestory since 1.5 years ago, and i would like to know what's the most versatile class now: I mean, I'd love something able to mob, boss and survive without failing in the process without too much funding (I'm almost in zeros now)
Thanks!

@chadjask: If you have no funding at all, whatsoever. It's a good idea to make a zero because the require very little money for potions, etc. And all the monsters you face early on are lvl 100+ so they drop a lot of mesos. It's a good way to get some starting funds, and from there you can use other methods (crafting, merching, etc.) to get yourself to a point where you have some decent funding.

Zero has excellent mobbing. It also prevents you from "botting", or "key-down", if you're into that stuff.
Kaiser in my opinion is not very versatile.
Shade is DEFINITELY not versatile.
Phantom is meh, but they get nerfed unintentionally soon.

The most versatlie jobs imo is Zero or Thunder Breaker,

1. Nightwalker - not too great at mobbing, but they are one of the best bossing classes with high speed, damage, HP drain, 50% elemental ignore,and Bind. Their attack range(Distance) is sort of short, but their bats make up for that range and helps drastically with mobbing.
2. Blaze Wiz - may have poor defense, but they attack extremely fast and are able to completely ignore physical resistance. (Their attack speed will be nerfed in the future.)
3. Shade - is a pure melee class. It is an easy class to utilize. They have almost no buffs to cast as everything is passive, and they're great at surviving with their dodge skill and self-revive. They can dish out high amounts of damage, but they do not attack that fast. (Unless you use SI, Green MPE potion, and attack speed IA)
4. Phantom - Phantom can steal adventurer skills. Which lets you play around with multiple skills in various situations: (Cross Surge, Arrow platter, Magic Crash, Frozen Orb, Holy Symbol, Darksight) You name it.
^ The above classes all have a self revive skill.
There are so many classes you can choose though, that it's ridiculous.
Also, you can stick to your paladin too. Paladins are the [b]only[/b] class that are able to reduce damage from % damage attacks from CRA/RA, attacks that would normally kill anyone (Chaos vellum's tail comes to mind). Plus paladins have magic crash, bind, threaten, revive, and the best defense in the game. Their offense is not that terrible, their insane defense makes up for it.
