General

1) Around 30k should suffice
2) Very cheap. Wait until people start using Empress equips as wallpaper and you should be able to score a Facon Wing Heavy Crossbow for less than 20m, maybe even less than 10m
3) Depends on your crits, actually. With certain skills maxed, somewhere between 30k and 35k should be enough
4) My HP is on 22k, but I do get some extra HP from different places. I'd say around 15 to 16k is average for a level 200.
5) They're okay, I guess. Wouldn't really put them as the top class in terms of enjoyability at some points...

i remember hitting 200ks with 50k clean iirc before hypers tho...65k buffed

[quote=SarcasticMonkey]Recently I got a MM to 100 (Totallynotforinfinitesnipe) I'm having tons of fun but I have question as the title says.

1.What range is needed to solo normal zak
2.How much is a Loveless/Empress Xbow
3.What range is needed for hitting 100k on hit on US
4.What is the average HP of a level 200 MM
5.Your opinion on MMs

EDIT:Just noticed a similar thread below[/quote]

1. Maybe 40-50k to play it safe? Usually it is the survivability that matters more for Marksman because their skills are pretty powerful already.

2. I am not too sure of Loveless equips, but most of the empress set is quite cheap (at least in Khaini), about 50M for shoes, hat, gloves and overall. Cape is about 400-500M, shoulder is about 600M to 1B. When May 16th comes around, the 8th Anniversary Celebration Boxes have a chance to give empress equips, so just hold out and collect those boxes to open until then if you want empress. Loveless tend to be cheap dependant on buyer, I think.

3. I don't remember exactly, but maybe 30-40k? Just a guess?

4. Not too sure on this one, but I have asked around in game and most people seem to have anywhere between 8-12k... With link skills and other stuff I managed an 18-19k, so it really depends on how you equip your MM.

5. I enjoyed my MM, despite the training being 2x faster than my BM (BM = 4 years, MM = 2 years). The transition I had after leveling my BM was interesting to say the least and MMs are definitely unique. I think though, even as I was finishing getting the MM to 200, as well as bossing, it just still seemed to be missing something my BM had, I cannot think of what it could be, but it didn't feel 100% with that "achievement unlocked" feeling I had with my BM. I quickly moved onto my WH without much else of a thought.

In any case it was still fun, Marksman have great potential after the unlimited patch and are excellent bossers, apparently many say they will have one of the top dpm, though it may be true, I still see Marksman being overrated... Fun and strong, but also overrated. Just something about one skill "looking" overpowered but isn't, at least not yet just has me question the whole thing. I will believe when Marksman are overpowered when they eventually get Advanced Final Attack or Snipe to hit more than one monster (Trueshot does not count imho, Trueshot should be stronger as Snipe currently beats it in dps) in 4th job... It would make sense then, wouldn't it? Every other archer has it, why not MMs? May as well give it to them so they can contend with the new revamped Wind Archers that should be coming out soon, if we are all for fairness that is.

3. yep 30k range my range is 32k and i hit 100ks with US

1. Back in the day, people with 3-4k ranges used to be able to solo zak in a matter of hours . Given the time limit changes, I'd say maybe a 20-30kish range? I mean honestly now a days, who zak runs anyways besides for the charm ?

2. They were 100-150mish back when hackers were killing chaos pb. Loveless are a bit pricier though as Nexon started banning them. Empress ones shouldn't go for more than 200-300m I'd imagine.

3. 350-370kish is capping with it so divided by 10, I'd guess somewhere in the 30kish range?

4. Depends on your hp equips. Certain equips like dominator pendants/ chaos ht pendants add % hp while other equips like rising sun pends add big hp boosts. I'd say if funded decently with a decent character card set, 15k+ isn't too much to ask for

5. Gameplay from 100-195> 195 to 200
