Lord knows that's one of the most annoying aspects of mounts currently, and considering it would ruin this class, I just wanted to be sure that's not the case.Yeah you can. It makes your hitbox f'ucking huge though, and you attack from much higher, so you shoot right over the heads of some of the shorter monsters. Something kind of odd when you attack from the Jaguar too: the attack doesn't register until the end of the animation.
For example, normally when you press an attack button, the attack registers right then and there, meaning you get the experience, the monster can no longer be out of your range, you can't turn around, etc. However, when you attack from the Jaguar's back, you press the attack button and you go through the Triple Shot animation, but the attack fires from where you are in what direction you're facing after the 700ish ms of cast time. You can actually press the button while walking one direction and turn around right as it's about to fired to fire behind you. Needless to say this takes a ton more planning so it's hard to get used to.
Also, Wild Hunters have no minimum range (on or off the Jaguar, lolmarksmen) and they can attack in midair (again, on or off the Jaguar). They're effectively Sins wearing a Crossbowman suit.
