Starting a Bucc

Hello to all the [wonderful] people of this forum, soon I'm going to create a Bucc and I wonder if you could share with me some tips.
Secondly (and a more important question) , which class (preferably Explorer) complements/best suited for Bucc for bossing and such ?
Thanks in advance.

to clear some speculation about the tb vs bucc, after red (which according to my source is the last week of October or the third week in November)

TB's although flashyer skills and off the start better mobility are not 100% superior to buccs
There skills are generally much wider in reach and with the mobility allowing them to train very efficiently the skills are also easy to combo allowing for more enjoyable and simpler leveling
That being Said Buccs on the other hand Focus on Strait forward Powerful hits comparitably to tb's after red patch, a Buccs mobility is slightly but not very noticably less, but buccs focus is primarily shifted to Bossing, with all the hyper skills adding % boss some passive some to skill, buccs also ignore all the def on any monster or boss at a 40% rate (44% if co) so with relativly little funding, you can still get great results
Buccs Mobbing ability although arguably stronger doesnt have a very versatile reach, red patch however fix's this with a flash jump Beam combo to bring us almost to par with tb's
haveing said that TB's mobing ability isnt limited to left or right like a Bucc is , but all around in multiple directions

NUTSHELL FOR THOSE TO LAZY TO READ

1v1 Bossing with not so much Funds - Bucc
faster training with every direction mobbing - RB
Easy training with << or >> direction only - Bucc
Flashy SKills pretty lights - TB
Generally easier to fund and play - Bucc
Bandwagon of the year award - TB

And thats my 2 cents on it all~
Personally i Love my Bucc and will never go back

Anyone who wants a speed boost on their slow attacks benefit from us.
Time leap helps Bishops during Bossing because they will be able to revive 2 people in a row.
Hornsters will eventually become your best friends.

Remember some bosses like ra gives you 0% pdr
Also crap mobility lead to insta deaths furring bossing as well as worthless 1v1 skill until 4th job

Any class that has a slow attacking weapon benefits from a Bucc. Of course, our utility is becoming outdated since BaM's get a Yellow Aura buff that applies to everyone and since TBs have our same party buff.

The only unique thing we contribute is Time Leap and that's like... well, it's not great.

Why would there be any difference between eMs and gMs TB ?

What do you mean by the second question? As in when in a party, which other classes benefit with a bucc?

Thanks for the answers. I'm making a Bucc 'cuase I've always wanted one and becuase of the Cygnus' successor medal [already prepared a name] (in EMS it is still possible ) so TB isn't an option.
Still waiting for the 2nd question.

buccs are amazing =) 20%passive bossing at 150, 40%chance to ignore 100%pdr, extra 20% crit rate against bosses, 8sec cd hyper for a 800%x4, lots of +15%dmg/atk buffs, Speed infusion, and sometimes you get 1.3x the exp =)

Tips? Get used to having crap mobility until RED comes out. Also, we have fairly average mobbing in second job, so it might get boring for you.
