taken from the 4th job DPS thread:
Class
Bowmaster - 102,326
Night Lord - 106,058
Buccaneer - 71,399
Hero - 95,419
Body:
(BM+NL) 106x25 + (102+4k from birds)x5= 2650k + 530 = 3180k per second
(Bucc+hero) 95x25 + 71x5 = 2375k + 355 = 2730k per second
arms - assuming a hero hits even two arms, they down it far faster, at roughly
2375k x 2 plus the bucc's damage. i have no clue what buccs use for a 2-mob attack. outside of the pesky top right arm (not sure how that affects heros, but i'm pretty sure the buccs can't attack it at all), they'll beat us on arms for sure.
edit - i think those are old numbers. his version KMST 1.2.190 is different for BM's by a lot.
2nd edit - by looking at the numbers on his KMST 1.2.190 excel sheet... corsairs get a larger boost from SI than hero's do, and have about 40k DPS higher per corsair than heros. again, heros win (badly) at arms, but would lose at the body to the ranged teams. essentially it's about whether the higher ranged team's DPS can outperform a hero team when they get a head start.
edit@below - the bowmen's birds would kinda... kill off most of the summons anyway, except blues. just as brandish would.
