@meiguihua: darn it! i had my camera ready too..

@chopin: The Mercedes are there. You missed it.
@beefly: I got no pirate class

@meiguihua: why??

@meiguihua: Why not Pirate chat?

Go to the bowman chat

I've seen plenty of botting BM's lol. Sometimes see Mercedes never see marksman and wild hunters and Wind archers just don't exist.

I've seen quite a few

@mrsying: i honestly haven't seen a mercedes yet lol

@mrsying: This isn't 2012.

@beefly I thinks its a toss-up between Bowmaster and Mercedes in terms of popularity.

@beefly: ahh... now that makes more sense. of course, its the damage problem again..

i guess its rare to see people like me who actually quits a class for a different reason. i left luminous because they ruined it with the dumb changes, especially the teleport

@chopin Yeah, but in comparison to the other classes, they are outnumbered. Classes that use STR and INT are more abundant and classes that use LUK are incredibly popular (DB, NL, Phantom, etc)

@chopin: I think Bowmaster is literally the only job that's popular, WA is infamous for the amount of buffing it needs to do.

Marksman would be a good choice too, but most people are put off by its simple animation and simple gameplay. (keep a distance and spam Snipe, but Hits Per Second is slow so it's not amazing to watch for people who play... any other job really)

The rest are weak according to the DPM chart (yes, it doesn't matter, but as you can see people still let it influence them in their choice of job.)

WH's 5th job is lackluster, and is left behind the next balancing of classes so that job's out of the picture too.

Nobody cares about DEX Pirates.

@sadvirgin: i dont believe that for a second, i see plenty of wind archers and bowmasters

i can understand the hp stat being cheap but dex? no

A lot of DEX classes are really unpopular, so the demand for DEX is generally much lower than every other stat. HP is pretty cheap too, since only one class uses it.
