Looking for the wisest of advice

So I have been maining a Phantom since they came out, but recently I haven't been all too happy with it, after losing around 14b from scams and accidentally booming stuff, I've grown a little desperate because I want a nice range, and with %LUK and thief being the most expensive I'm considering changing class. So anyways on my phantom I have a pretty godly cane (315att 9 stars) and some other stuff, that once I sell will have around 20-30b funding. My big question is, should I switch classes? Like I said I like phantoms but with thief stuff being overly expensive I'd rather move to a cheaper class.
Cons:
-I'd lose my IGN (Neuralize)
-I'd have to do a lot of quests again
-I'd lose all my NX stuff (2 perm penguins and a lot of clothes)
-I'd lose untradeable equips (12%LUK badge, 26att 30luk 6%LUK dimension gloves, 48attack heart and berylroid)
-I wont be a phantom anymore and I like phantoms a lot
-I will lose HS, arrow platter, and cross surge, which also means I lose the 130%range boost from priere and cross surge

Pros:
-It will be cheaper to fund the class that I will be making
-Eventually when we get the NX item transfer event I will get back all my NX stuff
-I can find a class with other benefits my phantom didn't have
-I can be stronger than my phantom
-I will have a lot of mesos from selling my phantom stuff

So anyways my eyes are set mainly on Mercedes and Wind Archer since their playstyle is similar to phantom's in terms of mobility and DPS and they are archers which are probably easiest to fund. So I ask of you to help me chose if I should leave my phantom or stay with him, and if I do, which class should I make depending on how fun it is to you. [b]Also to wind archers do the effects of albatross max stack with effects of albatross? Or does albatross max override albatross? [/b]
Thank you all <3

EDIT: Right now i don't have any pieces from the RA set besides my cane, and in Broa it costs 7b to buy the 3 pieces clean, and I don't have any mesos, That is one of the reason I want to change class.

Even if archers are cheaper, achieving a higher range and/or damage on them compared to phantom will be harder by some extent

This is why I only get nx-related stuff on Explorers, while scrolling universal items that all classes can use
So whenever I want to change classes, it costs nothing at all to change (this shouldnt even be an issue in the first place in my opinion)

@stomachulcers so I get the 40 att from albatross and the 50att from albatross max to get 90 att?

Albatross maximum adds to albatross.

i suggest staying with phantom, becuz funding a new class will be more money, since you already have a good funding already on your phantom stick with it Oo.
