    Default Bowmen....find a new putdown class

    Everyone disses Bowmen. They are weak, they use bows, they have b in their names.....blahblahblah. Why do everybody put down Bowmen? Every class has it's own uniquness. Take this poll.

    I think its mainly because they arent the strongest ranged class, I mean, they have some fancy skills, but on normal attacks, they lack. Which is why I do not understand thief classes....why do they get ranged, and melee weapons....

    Bowmen can jump and shoot so can mages, you just have to get tthe timing in correctly ...

    Thou i never tried bowman a friend of mine is playing crossbowman and at our current level (i am 33 he is 39) My mage still does more dmg then him at a lower cost of mana ... but i dunno how this will look later in the game thou

    Bowmen are self-sufficient. They have skills purely for themselves and function better as a solo player.

    Come later levels, Bowmen will be one of hte most powerful classes. :]

    My level 46 Hunter is capable of beating Lightening Mages that are several levels above her with Booster and Arrow Bomb. <3

    It's fairly simple to jump and shoot with a bowman. Of course, the shot will act as if you shot it without jumping, but it gives for better manueverability. What you do is set your attack skill (DS or AB.. or you can use your regular attack) to X. Then when you want to do a double shot, just press ALT and X with the same finger at the same time. It works pretty reliably, so try it.

    Thank you.
    AMEN. ;D

    We have no party skills or anything because we're the solo one. We'll be one of the most powerful.. hopefully later in the game.

    Heh, show some of them mages what for.

    I think that the bowmen class is pretty strong, especially later on (I've seen bowmen do insane damage here and there o_O ) and have some cool skills to boot, like that arrow bomb thing. Exploding arrows for the win.
    Only having to raise DEX (with a bit of STR every now and then) makes it easy to level up, too, and that's never a bad thing.

    Also, crossbowmen are the bomb.
