Corsair Revamp Compilation and Opinions Thread

This is just a thread I made with some videos and other things showing what the corsair class will be like after the revamp. A lot of this stuff has already been posted on Basil, I'm just putting it in one thread for people to easily find =). Also, post how you feel and what you think of the new revamp!

[quote=Rosencroft]to save me a headache: Play with what you like and are willing to fund. Personally? I recommend a Marksman or a Corsair. I find the toy gun nx adorable and when a Corsair fights you are effectively pushing out more explosions then a Michael Bay Movie.

I must admit, I'm a little nervous about how any of us will handle to change to Corsairs. Adjusting to the new style will take some getting used to.[/quote]

Just make a Jett for now while we wait for the revamp to see the new playing style more or less. 3rd job isn't that bad so far and is pretty fun.

So you wouldn't even suggest playing a cannoneer?
And a quick question about khaini, is the world dying or are they still quite a few number of people? Cuz I used to play there but moved to bera, now I'm sick of bera and looking to join a new world or khaini again (on my new account. So still no funding)

Hey guys I have a question. So I made a new account and I'm planning on either starting a new world or stay in bees on my new account (I'm doing this so I can try out classes I've never played) I wanna know should I play a corsair or cannoneer (when we are able to make legends again) or maybe a marksman.
So which one is better with like no funding, or little funding, and has a fun playstyle (mobbing, mobility)

P.s. Sorry I didn't make a thread it's just my computer is broken so I have to do this on my iPod and it won't let me post threads

[quote=sleepyheadXIII]Just going to copy and paste from another thread since don't wanna type everything again

There is no denying in terms of numbers and mobility we are better. At the end of the day facts is facts and we are better in terms of numbers. At the end of the day though, all I see now from the corsair bossing video is just another BM and in training videos basically another Cannoneer. If wanted that, I would of just made a BM or Cannoneer. I love our current gameplay and the few flaws that it had like being the only job in the game without stance could of been easily fixable. Apparently the majority here on basil hates our current gamplay which honestly confuses me why they even play their corsair still, and nexon just did what the majority wanted. I don't hate BMs, so I'm sticking to my corsair, but overall feel as though could of done a better job with this revamp and keeping the core gameplay instead of just basically making a brand new job.

Just an opinion though[/quote]

A person from nexon did say pirates will get revamped later in summer.
My guess is it gonna come with phantom since phantoms probally cant steal our ships and our transformation.

Best compilation ever! Now I dont have to look around for different links

Im kind of disappointed that corsairs and just summoning everything to fight now. But whatever. Do you think they will patch the "glitch" that takes away the delay on Fusillade? If they do, I dont think sairs could be effect mobbers with such a slow cast time.

And lastly, does this put sairs back on top of the dps charts? With a 100% rate of final attack, rapid fire would be doing 400% (330%+70%) damage per bullet O:
Im not sure about the AFA rate for Mercedes, but dealing 3200% Damage per second sound really, [i]really[/i] nice [b]♥[/b]

I can't wait for the revamp I can finally show a Corsair HT solo video right now it only leaves me with 25minutes on the clock hopefully after it'll be less seeing how we have stance and resistance and can mob the top three heads and headshot and if the card update comes Ill have more hp thanks to my drk and my Demon slayer for extra resistance.

Honestly, it's fine if this is updated or not. There's not much, if any at all new videos from kms. Plus this thread is linked from the post justice guide so if anyone really wants to see the videos, they can just look at that. Plus most questions can be answered in the forum anyways.

@MyGunner: Eh, even though cannoneer's % is lower, would say they are better mobbers than sair, because of the laser range, anchor helping them gather mobs, and cannon jump being a bit better then wings in some way.

@MyGunner: and @lolnubb:
Actually...
http://www.southperry.net/showthread.php?t=50830
Buccs beat cannoneers in both 1vs1 and mobbing
Sairs beat cannoneers in both 1vs1 and mobbing as well.
Cannoneer is weaker than both jobs at both things

Only reason why would say cannoneers are better at mobbing is because 1st-3rd job they are more mob oriented and that they have anchor to help gather mob
Edit; oh and the pure range of laser compare to fusillade

[quote=Mazzacre]I personally prefer corsair =P[/quote]

I much rather have captain and viper to be honest.
Like seriously, without ever looking it up how many people even know what a corsair is?
Everyone knows what a captain is though.

And idk why, but viper just seems like a better name than buccaneer with their skills and how they look.
If they are going to completely change our playing style, I hope they change the name as well.

@YouAzle: Is yours maxed? Mine does 200-250k I wanna say like....90% of the time. And when it doesn't, it's like 190k which is pretty close to 200k.
It's extremely helpful to me, especially at czak.

[quote=sleepyheadXIII]Eh, not saying octopus is bad, but probably was a good thing. Mean...the majority don't even use it, because they are to lazy to even summon it.
Plus it doesn't mean our damage is so reliant on it which is good because of the cooldown. Think if saw the % dmgs for pirates on southperry, even a 5 sec server lag can drastically decrease our damage.[/quote]

My corsair hit 200-300ks at gun boss, I noticed when i take time to summon octos, it wastes time i couldve been hitting 2 cannons or 3 (1+m damage) Those octos hit like 100k each, go away pretty fast. I think theyre just good for pinning a boss but who needs that nowadays.

@Rosencroft: Nice. I mean more like, we aren't as summon dependent/orientated as we were before Justice. Mean, at the moment I think Octo+gaviota makes up about 40-60% our DPM at high pdr rate bosses. Majority of the sairs are to lazy to summon them though constantly.
So even though they nerfed octo to the extreme, that fact don't have to summon it every 10seconds (reason people hate it) for a huge chunk of our DPM is pretty good. Especially like said before, since people are to lazy to even summon our current octopus.
So the change to octo has some pros and some cons.

[quote=Halfhearted]@Zenarkenstin nope.
Not only did Nexon massively nerf the damage %, lower the duration, AND remove the PDR bypass, but they also made it so you can only summon 1 at a time.

Octo went from being a [i]GREAT[/i] DPM skill to being far less effective and much less-worth summoning.[/quote]

Every pirate has something that they're missing...

For Cannons it's a Hurricane-fast type 1 vs 1 skill,
For buccs it's mobility skills,
For Corsairs it's a laser,
For Mechs... well... Anything remotely that reminds me of a pirate, they don't have.

[quote=Rosencroft]I'd imagine the price of Rapid fire would skyrocket up to... ass backwards expensive just for the sake that 2 classes need it (Corsairs because its a main bossing skill and Phantom... because they effing need it...)

I believe I quit maple for a while until the revamp comes... to much crap going on in my life right now to even bother coming back...[/quote]

Eh...I wouldn't see phantom making prices skyrocket just because of how annoying it's going to be for them to find max rapid fire.
First they got to lvl up their 4th job steal skill thing up to lvl30. (Not sure if the skill needs books, if so then dam going to suck)
Afterwards they have to find a corsair with max rapid fire. Corsairs are pretty rare (probably will be still after the revamp since nl/shad revamp to phantom to db revamp makes thieves the thing to be for bandwagoners) and we don't even have max rapid fire until like 150.
So having to max their own skill, finding a decently high lvl corsair, and hope that sair has max rapid fire....so much of a drag.
