    Hey so I just rejoined again after quiting a year ago (I had a hermit then) but i want to try something new this time and I like underplayed classes.
    So can anyone tell me their strengths and stuff and weaknesses? Like which are more item dependent?
    Can u guys also tell me how to put points in the str n dex n skills lol I'm clueless on that stuff and i don't wanna mess up thanks :)

    Paladins

    Pros:
    • Higher DPS than Buccaneers
    • Decent DPS at elemental weak bosses
    • Tanky with Power Body and Achilles
    • Easy to HP wash
    Cons:
    • Blast has a short attacking range if using 1h swords
    • Outclassed by other Warrior classes
    • No useful party skills
    • End game weapon is hard to come by
    Buccaneers

    Pros:
    • Speed Infusion is awesome
    • Flashy animation for skills
    • Reliant on skill chaining
    • Knuckles are cheap to scroll
    • HP Washing isn't too hard
    Cons:
    • Some skills do not work
    • One of the worst DPS of all non-mage classes
    • Stun doesn't work on bosses, which Buccaneers need to do decent DPS

    Also how is skill chaining a pro? Wouldn't that be a con. Since we cant spam barrage/dstrike

    Guess it's both. People like mixing up skills in an efficient manner rather than holding down one key. That's a major appeal to Buccaneers back in the day from my own personal experience.

    .... I don't understand.... if anything that IS the problem (CON) with Buccaneers since we can't spam our main dps skill.... Sure dragon strike looks nice and is flashy but the damage is horrible (considering the speed) on single target bosses. If anything it is inefficient, definitely not EFFICIENT. Proof of this, is the reduction in delay of the skills in later patches.

    Also regarding grinding we can't spam dragon strike, so we have to mix in useless uncharged corkscrews, plis....

    Honestly, play what makes you happy. I'm going to be a Paladin regardless of their low DPS and short range.
    Just don't play Bishop we have enough :D
