Collection of Possible Fourth Job Builds

This is my planned Corsair build. I think it's a decent balance between training and bossing. I didn't max Flamethrower in 3rd job, which is why I left Elemental Boost until the very end.

The build assumes that we will get KMS updates sometime soon, or at least before I get to level 142. I get level 10 Ship pretty early. However, I will most likely just save SP for Battleship until we get KMS updates so I don't have to deal with level 10's 6 minute cooldown.

If MW30 is ridiculously hard to get, I will just max Battleship Torpedo earlier and save SP for MW30.

Hero's Will may come earlier depending on whether I want to HT or not.

Looks like a pretty solid "bossing, but not completely shafting yourself on training, build."

I'm not 100% sure my information is accurate, but MW 30 is going to be the equivalent of MW 20 back when 4th job first came out. It drops from HT and Zak is going to start dropping 20. That means it'll probably be pretty rare and expensive (500m+ price tags?) for some time.

I still don't see why people bother getting skills just to "replace" old skills. Maybe it's just because I'm coming from a BM background and Rapid Fire's flashiness doesn't impress me nearly as much as it does all the other Corsairs. Burst Fire is still useful after you get 5 RF, because it can be used in midair. If you're going to get RF at all, get it to a level where it's actually worth using over Burst Fire. That'll let you max Bullseye a few levels earlier. You won't need RF for Anego.

If RF isn't needed for Anego then I'll just hold off on it until later and max Bullseye earlier. I realize that RF is barely stronger than Burst Fire at level 5, I was just getting it for the sake of Anego.

MW30 dropping from HT isn't so bad. I was worried that it would be from Pink Been or something xD. But yeah, I can definitely see it at 500m for quite some time.

Slaughtering HT is easy and quite common now though (compared to back then), so i don't think it'll stay at 500m for a very long time. No doubt nexon would load them into a box event anyway.

I heard with these new equips from v70 rapid fire is supposed to be the best by far

Edit: No.

Please remove.
And stop trolling me SP.
I DEMAND BANHAMMA!

To be honest, it's hardly being killed in Windia lately.
CWPQ pendants kinda ruined the Horntail business and most don't even bother anymore aside from a few.
Not to mention all the hack's are patched/blocked/whatever'd now so hackers aren't killing it anymore either.

This is what I think my build will be:
120: +1 DS +1SI +1Barrage
121: +2 DS(3) +1 Timeleap
122: +3 DS(6)
123: +3 DS(9)
124: +3 DS(12)
125: +3 DS(15)
126: +3 DS(18)
127: +3 DS(21)
128: +3 Barrage(4)
129: +3 Barrage(7)
130: +3 DS(24)
131: +3 DS(27)
132: +3 DS(MAX)
133: +3 Barrage(10)
134: +2 ST +1 Demo
135: +1 Snatch +2 Barrage(13)
136-140: +3 Barrage(28)
141: +2 Barrage(MAX)
142: +3 SI(4)
143: +3 SI(7)
144: +3 SI(10)
145: +1 SI(11) +2 Something

Then... Don't know, probably going with demo/ST... not sure yet.

I could definitely see that...I'd like Barrage maxed before just about everything except DS. Some SI and Time Leap in there...I like this build.

After MW30 assuming nexon doesn't bomb it's prices too, no doubt everyone will start HTing again for such a valuable book.

Thanks =) I'm not sure if I will flip Wind booster with barrage cause I'm still confused about how helpful is wind booster 11 compared to 1...

On Hidden-Street, they have "Pirate's Rage" as a Buccaneer skill, that works the same as Hero's Will (break from being seduced). Can anyone vouch for this? I don't have a Buccaneer so I have no way to check really.
