Wind Piercing. Good idea?

If assuming the max level of Wind Piercing of the KoC skill is the same as what Wind Archers get, which is 700%, wouldn't that be a really good skill to have as a Marksman? Especially when it comes to LHC where sometimes you get mobs of 4-5, wouldn't spamming Wind Piercing be a lot more efficient than waiting for Piercing Arrow to charge?

I actually attempted getting Luna Dews...but got 0 (NOTHING!) after about 4 hours of 2x! D;
Can any MM with Wind Piercing out there confirm my theory?

I didn't get it. I already have pierce maxed so no need.

[quote=Fcroaonlk]Sorry buddy, but Irena's Wind Piercing is only "600%, Max Monsters Hit: 3" (according to Hidden-Street), for a total of 1800%. Ultimate strafe is a total of 1200%, and pierce on multiple guys multiplies in power each guy, can hit up to six, and its power makes up for its lack of spamability. If you want to spend a lot more hours of 2x for the achievement factor, go ahead, but don't expect WP to be godly for someone of your level. It is convenient in job 2, ok in job 3, but pierce bIows (got in the habit of spelling it that way, stupid maplestory censor) in 4th job compared to pierce.[/quote]

Thanks for that. Guess I won't be wasting any more time then. Did you get it though?
