Made a level 120 shadower, and i dont know if i should regret it. I hear bowmasters are more suitable in bossing etc. The only downside is that hp washing...
Talking about DPS, shadowers win. Since 5k of bag x10 its like 50k - 70k of dmg. Also no need funded, just mesos. Bowmaster its a support DPS class, wish provive Sharp Eyes and DPS at the same time (most of bm goaling for 30k dmg). I really think shadower should be a good attacker, since also its a support as well.
Pre level 170 ish shadowers are one of the best dps bossers, but also fairly expensive. The best part is that you can start doing insane damage right from level 70 without needing SE SI or even any gear. I even soloed krex once in under an hour with the basic starting razor. Shadowers are in no way a weak class but because they are not very well understood most parties will prefer SI. For a shadower the funding will be mostly twords bombing, while as an archer you will use what you would have used to bomb in ap resets gear ect. Shadowers are just easier to get straight into bossing imo. I love them!
Shadowers lvl extremely fast as well. I did 73-100 in around 8 hours. Meso exploding himes with a priest pulling. Or you can just go kill BFs and get multiple lvls at a time. The only other class that comes close to a shadower in terms of lvling is a f/p. That mist brah..... I made enough mesos to gear myself pretty well and I'm even funding a mage now with the extra mesos. Weird doing it the other way around lol. You have so many options to make money with Shadowers. Booming elder wraths at lvl 7x and selling the rags, selling BF toes and HH heads, etc. I can make around 80-100 Mil an hour on my Shadower. Top that off with shadower gear being extremely cheap and the 4th job books costing 5 Mil on average in FM. gg And they're good for nearly all bosses minus HT which isn't out right now anyway. Smokescreen is a great party support skill. 2 Shadowers and a Bucc mean no damage taken or knock back for 4 minutes. Seriously, it's OP, you let the other attackers go completely ham on the target and they don't have to worry about potting or really doing anything for 4 mins. In a Zak run I can solo 3 arms by myself while the rest of the attacker party has to work together to kill the rest. While they're doing that, I'm already dropping on the body to start booming the next stage.
Lol, a lot of it depends on luck. Get yourself a priest bishop for BF leech. Find a BF, should take you about 10-15 mins to kill it. During that time the priest is looking for other BFs, when it finds one, it tags it to get mapowner, comes back for leech at the one you're about to kill then you move onto the next one. Sell toes for 50mil, winning. HH you find along the way are 20 Mil. Or, you can seriously just farm elder wraiths for an hour. Depending on the your drop luck and your damage, you can get anywhere from 60-80 soiled rags an hour at around 130. They sell up to 1.2 Mil. Also, during your grinding levels from 73-100 at himes. They drop so many earing dex scrolls. I made 5 sets of 10 dex earing while making a decent amount from npcing and simple pick up.
