i believe the gun would be the cheapest option, as you can use 3 40%s and 4 60%s and pull off a 77 att

Is there any reason anymore to train at CGs for Buccaneers, or does the Skele dungeon blow CGs clear out the water?

Imo, CG = solo and skeles = party. I wouldn't know how the exp compares though, since i can't train at either spot yet.

I must factor in the annoyance of Seals. Carrying 400+ Holy Waters wouldn't be the problem as much as the time it takes away from training having to unseal yourself.

Yeah, but hopefully time temple covers for that annoyance. After that it'll be "captains of oblivion vs skeles???" :/

Better yet, krakia. Higher level mobs that aren't annoying as pineapple please. >_>

I found one, and bought 3 others for 30m. There weren't ANY Cannon 30's in Kradia for a loooong time so I just went ahead and bought them 'cause I was desperate to work one. :S

Did you use all 4? lol

mkay 2 things in one a what to do next and what to buy next post =P

What to do next:

Build is as follows:

max ds, 8 barrage, 1 demo/st/tl/SI

all for barrage? or 2 barrage, 1 SI till level 11?

What to buy next:

+12 dex overall (i don't need anymore dex to wield my king cent) 100%'d
90/9 king cent
6 str shoes
4/4dex pac
8 atk wg
avg MoN
clean zhelm
10 dex earrings

i might buy a glove eventually. That's my first guess on what to upgrade next.
Thanks in advance!

since barrage is 8, get it to 11, then get si to 11. then whatever you want.

since you good with dex, upgrade glove.

There's no need for SI 11, only if you're gonna boss and be in warrior party. So I would certainly barrage for now.

As for equips you could also get an overall with some dex and finish rest with STR. You're right about upgrading glove, that's probably what's gotta come after overall. Then either shoes or king cent, whichever is cheaper for you at the time. Best of luck!

I'm a little afraid of scrolling a PAC at the moment, I have five 70% cape str and I'm not sure how to go with that. Should I use the first three and 60% the last two or just go all the way using up all the 70%s?

70%s are eeevil and making a PAC go boom could hurt, I'd go for all 60s if I were you.

70%s are the scourge of maple

do what i did, 1 random 30% and 60% the rest that got me an 11 dex cape ...which i want to trade for an 7 dex 5 att cape a-@

Thanks for your inputs about the scrolling. I guess I'll sell the 70s and buy 60&s instead.

I'm really discouraged today. Since I couldn't find White Pioneers worth a damn, I decided to scroll up another Brown Pollard instead. However, the results were really horrible. I managed to scroll one with 15 DEX 7 slots (10% + 30% + 50%) and failing to get anything good with the first 15ish Brown Pollards, but afterwards it ended with 19 DEX and 1 slot. ie 2/6 Overall 60%s worked.

In anger I blew it up with a 30% because I already have a 20 DEX Brown Pollard. I probably spent ~90-100m worth of Overall DEX scrolls in a futile attempt to scroll something better and have nothing to show for it. I should have just sold that 15 DEX 7 slot overall for a huge profit.

Should I keep trying, or just give up and recoup my losses, while waiting in the future for a pre-scrolled Brown Pollard or White Pioneer with over 20 DEX? I still have ~340m left; I'm trying to save up as well.

I would wait for maker. My overall [20 str 10 dex white pioneer] is gonna be on sale once we get maker. With it, I can basically 100% an overall and it'll be close to 30 stats more or less.

Mmmm okay then.

I'm not on the level where I can use Wings and Recoil Shot yet and I'm wondering what would be the most efficient way to use them both?

Is it to just jump, recoil and then wings??
Macro Recoil+Wings?
Macro Wings+Recoil+Wings?
or just use Recoil without using wings?

I use Wings + Recoil + Wings. I just tried Recoil + Wings, it is about the same except you have to jump before your press the macro.

So I've just recently hit 4th job for my gunslinger and i've been questioning myself about this question since lvl 70.

When does the skill Bullseye/ Homing Beacon really come in handy?

I read the builds for Corsairs and most of them recommend maxing out Bullseye. I want to know why one should max out Bullseye. I know its good for bossing, but how? You only need to cast bullseye once or a couple of times to hit the monster and constantly aim at it. Its not a skill where you can constantly spam like Burst fire.

one last question, how does the extra damage from maxing it out really help? o.O

I apologize for my stupidity
