Hell gollux is entirely doable, you just need to know when you have to set up turret during the jewel.

I have gone ahead and tested this for bowmaster by tweaking equips. I set myself to 1.995m-2m range clean, I.E. no buffs including reckless hunt, with 89% ignore def, and 256% boss (as close as i could get).
I then buffed myself to well over 2-2 range with basic bowmaster buffs, no hypers or use buffs, etc, and fought Hard Magnus...

Here's what I came up with:
Hurricane was hitting about 11m-14m a line (essentially 22m-28m a shot since it is split through hyper).
Magic arrow and AFA lines were hitting around 28m-31m.
I forgot to test mounted arrow platter but based on these numbers I would have expected at least 8m a line.

I can test at other bosses if you'd like but it should be easy to judge approximately what you would hit just by comparing Hard Magnus' defense to the boss in question.

For your consideration, here's some end game bosses and whether or not they are soloable with that range:
Hard Magnus: Yes
Chaos Queen: Yes
Hell Gollux: Possibly: you would likely run out of time on jewel but with the right hypers and use buff and/or rune of destruction it may be doable. It will be close.
Chaos Vellum: No

Another thing to consider is that in the most recent KMS updates Merc is still weakest, WH got nerfed, and BM got buffed.

For bowmaster, hurricane would do about 20 to 27mils with the occasional 30 from magic arrows (if not a tad bit more). Bosses like hard magnus and cvellum, you would be doing about 8 to 12mils. Definitely need 94+ pdr for those bosses. These numbers are a rough estimate based off my range

Mercedes (including all debuffs like spikes royale and lightning edge) would probably hit about 18-25m per line on regular bosses like Zakum and Horntail.

Coming from these classes, I'd say you wouldn't even be hitting 20m (or maybe close) per line. Thats just my guess though.

main attacking skills. Like hurricane, ishtars, etc. I was just wondering what would hitting 2m range get me

2m2m isnt very explanatory as range keeps increasing. Also what skills?
