Hey, I was looking to fund an attacking class after getting my bishop to a reasonable level. I was looking for a bossing class that was looked for in bossing groups, however still didn't require much mesos for HP washing / end-game equips. The class I am sort of interested in is the BM as Se is looked for, and washing isn't all that expensive in comparison to NL. Estimated cost for washing on BM to be 5b or so
Well, shadowers don't need to HP wash very much because they have a skill that blocks damage. They also have meso explosion which does damage based off mesos on the ground instead of your actual damage range. For classes that are wanted in boss runs, the archer classes offer sharp eyes which is incredible valuable. They have low HP and require a good amount of washing. Buccaneers aren't the best bossing class, but they don't require alot of washing and with demolition they have good damage. They also offer speed infusion and time leap which are both good abilities for parties. Dark knights offer great damage and have Hyper body which almost everyone loves. They don t require alot of washing and are always needed.
Unless I am mistaken, the cost to wash a bowman class is more than any other class in the game (other than mages & beginners.) Contrary to what seems to be a belief for most people, NLs aren't even a class that is necessarily more expensive than other classes until you get to the point where you want a 60 attack & x amount of luk or perfect sleeve. It sounds like you are thinking about making a BM & I think that it's a pretty good route to take, you will have two of the most essential buffs in the game to boss & will be wanted in parties if you are a somewhat new(er) player.
You are correct. Archer classes have low health and no defensive abilities so they need more washing to survive than any other class.
I can recommend the buccaneer. Calculated the cost for 30k hp without HB at lvl 150. Cost for such hp beast is around 8-10bil depends on ur int equips and the amount of double wash. Also the gear prices are not that high, which makes the class even cheaper. Hope you have a blast with ur new char!
