Pro and con. and why you choose the class. Thank you (:

bowmaster: can do 40+ lines per second
BaM: same attack for 170 levels

We can be practically invincible if we lock our Healing arrow + Blaster. I think funding a BM will be better in the long run because of bossing and cheap % Dex items.
I'd recommend you play both classes up until 100-110 if you have the time and energy so you can get a feel of their play-style, and then take funding into consideration.
Well, as someone who's mains his BaM and funds a Bowmaster on the side, I'll give you my input on them, but I'm biased towards BaMs, just a heads up.
BaM: High damage, high defense, decent mobility, auras are very helpful in parties and 100% stance (well 90%, but once you get your level 150 hyper, it's 100% stance). Great survivibility with your defense + dodge rate + drain. BKB's (the level 170 hyper skill) range is massive, and does a lot of damage, even when unfunded. Only downside I see no abnormal status resist.
BM: Needs more funding to get started, low defenses, good mobility. You do have a drain skill, so that does help you with surviving stuff. If you do fund it, doing Gollux is really easy since an arrow platter turret can take out the spawns at the bottom while you kill the eye and the jewels.
I like BaM's more, but I do need a break from them now and then, so that's when I play my Bowmaster.
Biased answer:
Not a fan of mage classes (besides i/ls <3). I've mained every mage in the past and ended up quitting them all. I find casting the same repetetive spell to be boring and am more about the simple fast pace hurricane like attacks. If you like the gameplay of battle mages maybe try out paladins as they can tank too but are slightly stronger.
Otherwise, I say that bowmasters are worth funding. They have dps on their side and if you ever decide to mass fund one, you'll become quite the bosser (that set up turret skill they have lets extremely funded bms/ phantoms breeze through dojo..)

Well, %int and %dex are the two cheaper stats at the moment. %dex equips and cRA equips for bowmen are ridiculously cheap right now. Bowmasters will be significantly easier to fund. However, I think Battle Mages are quite worth slowly funding over time. Hope I answered your question.
