Even Wrote:Bow masters are terrible at mobbing and so is wild hunters
Actually, Wild Hunters are quite decent at mobbing with Swipe dealing 300% with four hits and healing 5% of the damage done and being able to hit up to eight targets. It's actually rather irritating, however, that the fourth job mob attack is weaker and slower than the third job one and doesn't even get to hit more enemies for it.

As for this comment, Mines is utter crap and loses all value as soon as the player advances to third job. While the skill sounds like it could be useful, there's the inherent flaw of it needing the player to run through the monsters he wants to hit, thus subjecting himself to well over 3k touch damage in later areas. If they took out Stinkbomb Shot and put in a new arrow based mob attack similar to Ricochet, or just make it a passive buff to Ricochet, that would be nice. I honestly don't think they should get rid of Sonic Roar so much as just reduce its delay down to 1280 milliseconds and make it hit 10 targets while reducing Swipe's damage down to 200% x4 or something (that or just switch the two skills around so that Swipe being stronger and faster than a fourth job attack would no longer be a concern).
