Obligatory "which are you gonna be" poll.

[Daakun]

Gunslinger, myself.

Nabbed the name 454Casull, too. >:3

I got Pat Garrett ready to roll

[Beserker101]

Personally, I'm gonna go infighter. I like close range classes anyways, and dislike guns all together (my reasons).

[Mira]

I love my Sader a little too much to quit it and make a Pirate. I would love to party with them, though. =)

[xDae]

Ah come on. Gotta go with Infighter :D

[Loose]

Methalize is ready to become an Infighter, all I need is the Pirate patch.

[Nukester]

If antything im making an Infighter

[Arcanum]

Gunslinger here. Still gathering equips in preparation.

But can anyone confirm if you can retain your SP even if you move beyond level 10 when becoming a pirate?

[Ryan]

I have a gunslinger in KMS, and I can say it's rather cool.

Weak though. :mad:

Is KMS full of pirates ever since they came out?
And what was the situation with equips?

I did this yesterday, Before (http://img118.imageshack.us/img118/4382/beforewv7.gif) and After (http://img118.imageshack.us/img118/4411/afterwn3.gif).

The only problem with that is that your HP/MP might suffer.

It works, but I seriously don't recommend it unless you want to be the #1 ranked Pirate or something.
You gain more hp and mp on level up as a Pirate than you do as a Beginner.

That's a permanent loss. :<

[French]

I'll be making a dexless infighter. I have most of the dex gear I'll need already on my cb.

[Cactuar]

You only gain as much as a 10 - 29 Bowman. Not much of a loss.

[Goatku]

My name is from DBZ, so I have to pick infighter :D

[Sn1perJohnE]

Infighter for me, i just needa remake my character, got to lvl 10 with 15 dex >_> name is gonna be iPunchInfight or PunchInfight, cant remember which it was

[xDae]

Methalize is ready to become an Infighter, all I need is the Pirate patch.

got a Lvl 29 Beginner? :P

Im still keeping mine at 10, cause im old fashioned like that

[Ryan]

Is KMS full of pirates ever since they came out?
And what was the situation with equips?

Basically, whenever I would play, people in Korea would be sleeping. So I'm not sure if there's a lot.

And I was too poor to bother with equips. I was still using the equips the job instructor gave me at level 10 up until level 30. :x.

Wow, I'm so bad for information. :confused:

[Loose]

got a Lvl 29 Beginner? :P

Nah, he's at level 10, ready to go.

I hope some of my friends can help me out with level +50 Pirate gear.

[wobbufet]

I'm not sure if I'll be joining the whole pirate hype, but if I will I'll probably try both classes. They both seem kind of fun but not really my type of characters.

[xDae]

Yea alot of people in my guild are gonna be sticking to their mains. Also, we will still HT and Zak on a regular basis, so really high level Pirate equips might drop for us :D

But Lvl 50~80... my wallet can feel the burn already

[wobbufet]

It's a really big advantage to have a good attack glove and z-helm from level 50, you don't really need all those godly pirate equips :P

[Mira]

Note to self : Get a Zhelm before all the lvl 50 pirates buy groups out.

[Blake]

I'm not going to be either. I'm going to stick with my Bishop.

[wobbufet]

Note to self : Get a Zhelm before all the lvl 50 pirates buy groups out.

Shouldn't be that hard now that there's multiple zak channels open :p

[Mira]

Shouldn't be that hard now that there's multiple zak channels open :p

Well, it is when money's an issue. I'm trying to get my friends who dou and trio zak to let me come. ;3

[xDae]

Note to self : Get a Zhelm before all the lvl 50 pirates buy groups out.

My buddy / guild master already let me know Im gonna get as many helms as I need to make a 25+ Dex one :D

[Mark]

Infighter here. I already have it all planned out.

[Hazzy]

Aww, I feel like a Bandwagoner choosing Infighter. I choose Infighter over Gunsligher for a few reasons. To start off, Bullets are worse than stars, and I hated recharging when I owned and played an Assassin. Second, more of a primary reason, Infighters have HP. I've played low-HP characters, and barely being able to take a hit from high level monsters just drives me insane. D:

[Ryun]

I'll most likely be an infighter myself. MapleStory strikes me as one of those "big numbers + pretty skills = happy player" games, and Infighter seems to accomplish both, at least in videos.

Overall I found the new class addition a little disappointing, but they can't make the classes too spectacular or they'll draw away from other classes. :rolleyes:

Of course more NERFAN and BUFFAN games will be played with Pirates, it's only natural, they did the same with 4th jobs and even beginner skills.


Although I'll probably wait until a good private server gets them working when they are released, because I just don't have the patience to do some MEGA-GRINDAN.

[Bribery]

I think I'm gonna be a Gunslinger. They seem fun and I'm sure their equips will be cheaper since everyone is going to be an Infighter.

[Mira]

I think I'm gonna be a Gunslinger. They seem fun and I'm sure their equips will be cheaper since everyone is going to be an Infighter.

Everyone's going to be a Gunslinger, too. I wouldn't hope the equips for pirates are gunna be cheap, beacue they arn't going to be. =(

[DrRusty]

infighters are jus so sexy lol. I wanna infighter =D

[Sora]

Infighters. I've always wanted to be a close-combat melee class, so I'll just wait for Pirates.

[wobbufet]

Hmm after looking closely to the skill tables it seems that I'd rather make an infighter than a gunslinger... I'll just see when they come out.

[xDae]

Believe me or not (no one ever does) one of the first time's I played MS two years ago, I asked my brother if there was a martial arts type character.

He just laughed at me, claiming it'd never work :/

[Hazzy]

Yikes, Pirate Prices will be high for the first four to ten months. :[

If this poll were accurate to the entire community, 92% of players would be making a Pirate. ._.
Epic Bandwagon.

[Bawblehead]

id be an infighter too :X cant play any range characters at all >_>

[Bribery]

Everyone's going to be a Gunslinger, too. I wouldn't hope the equips for pirates are gunna be cheap, beacue they arn't going to be. =(

Gunslinger equips are dirt cheap in KMS. The level 70 bullet doesn't even cost 1 mil because everyone is an Infighter.

[Hazzy]

Whoa! :eek:
How long have Pirates been out? o.0
I'm sure the prices are going to soar through the stars in the beginning as everyone tries out Pirates.

[Cardboardsnail]

Gunslinger

I don't care for damage that much

I just want to ride a boat :D

[Worthyness]

I wanna be an infighter only because i can play on a ranger and a hermit.. that's enough ranged classes for me. Infighters provide me with a different play style away from ranged and i can get hurt without worrying about dying after 2 hits =D

[Dagger]

I made both, one in Mardia (yay for very small funding) and one in Bellocan so I can hang out with my friends from online.
The Mardia one will be the Infighter, and the bello will be the gunslinger.

They are for entertainment purposes only, I'm not quitting my Bandit for them. xP

[White Adapt]

Infighter. I've had mages for so long that I decided I wanted to make a class that could actually be useful and wanted at bosses. Also, I'm tired of low damage, and I want to try something not ranged.

[Holypie]

wait... gunslingers have bad hp?

[Hazzy]

wait... gunslingers have bad hp?

Infighters get an HP boosting skill in 2nd job, Gunslingers don't. They should have around the same HP as an Archer.

[Holypie]

awww.... so, they'll die alot?

[Hazzy]

awww.... so, they'll die alot?

That's more dependent on the player than the class. :/
If you're a laggy player, yes, you are at risk to dieing. D:

[Viper]

Infighter. I loved the idea of being able to hold a gun AT FIRST, but then I saw gun slinger's skills and how weak they were I changed my mind however Infighter's skills are great and the flashy skills like Transform and S.Transform will probably be fun to use and dual-wielding, I mean come on :DDD.

[Loose]

...I saw gun slinger's skills and how weak they were...
They're only as weak as you want them to be. I'm sure that using them right (summons, burning, etc.) they can outdamage almost everyone.

I think Gunslingers aren't weak, they just have to use a lot of skills to keep up with other classes' damage. They aren't a one skill spamming class.

[z0mgc00k13]

im gonna make both my char name is fr0stgunn3r :redface:

[Worthyness]

Gonna make both eventually... but Infighter first =)

Name is Futurition <<,--- random word generator xD

Gunslinger is either groundedammo or worthyshot, haven't decided yet =P

[aznegglover]

Goooooooooo INFIGHTERS!

[Xyphang]

Gunslingers are a little weak for my taste, so I can't really stand up to a sin KSing me. Infighter would be the best, super combo fighter. :cool:

[Cardboardsnail]

I'll make a gunslinger to start and then maybe an infighter once I get more $$$

[Eneko]

Im gunna be a Infighter man! I got the name FistyCuff!!!

[Insane]

Definitely infighter, I even have the name "Infighter" reserved for when the job comes out. (Though I haven't bothered to get it to level 10 yet, but whatever.)
Maaaybe a gunslinger later, but infighters seem so much cooler to me.

its cause there DBZ. Lol infighter. I like fistycuff

[Insane]

Not really, I liked Infighters more before third/fourth job was revealed and they were going around mobbing stuff without DBZ-style moves. >_>

[Eneko]

lol i like any thief kind of class. Thief and Pirates are Pillaging classes

[Eneko]

i actually got another character ready to be pirate but im not gunna make that one a pirate for a while.

[Lana♥]

I'll try infighter first. They look cooler~

[iiMarik]

I iamgine GunSlinger has like.. those wood things with a string in the middle, like people would fire rocks with them in movies? is that what a GunSlinger uses?

[EtherealAsen]

They're only as weak as you want them to be. I'm sure that using them right (summons, burning, etc.) they can outdamage almost everyone.

I think Gunslingers aren't weak, they just have to use a lot of skills to keep up with other classes' damage. They aren't a one skill spamming class.

Exactly why I'll make a gunslinger! I want to play a class that actually requires technique. Holding down one button = boring.

[EndlessAxis]

imma be an infighter ign is LordOfAesir

[Kabanaw]

I'm gunna be a gunslinger. Already got KabaShot ready :D

And also, thoseof you saying how pirate equips will be a lot, once Magatia comes out and we get the Maker skill we'll be able to make all the pirate equips we want :D

[Worthyness]

That's assuming Magatia comes out...

But i think i can stick with a 100%ed lvl 40 robe unto; people can mass scroll better overalss i guess...

[Rayquaza2233]

Starting with a gunslinger, and I'm getting one before most of you.

<=== Is making gunslinger in JMS first

[Kabanaw]

That's assuming Magatia comes out...

But i think i can stick with a 100%ed lvl 40 robe unto; people can mass scroll better overalss i guess...

Well, it'll probably be out by the end of the year.


Also, those of you getting a pirate to 29, remember that if you're making a gunslinger that 400-500 hp is a big thing.

[Greg22]

Oh man... gunslingers... that's a good one.

Inifighter named Overhaul.

[Eldin]

Also, those of you getting a pirate to 29, remember that if you're making a gunslinger that 400-500 hp is a big thing.

Oi, no exaggerating - it's 80-280, iirc.

Which is still a lot, mind.

[ShadowMarck]

I'm making both. My infighter is gonna be on Mardia (where I normally play) and my gunslinger is on Broa. Also, my gunslinger's IGN is Siugres. Serguis, first infighter in Broa, meet first gunslinger in Broa. :excellent:

[Daakun]

With Pirates so close, figured this topic could use a bump.

[ItzTaylor]

Uh. Gunslinger. I'll announce the name of mine when they come out.

[Chocobo]

Gunslinger.
They have guns and lots of summons :glitter:

[D-F1am3]

Infighters cause i want to be part of a bandwagon for once

[randompeep]

I never actually saw the point in the hype of pirates, but whatever.

As for the bandwagon, I already have an archer in the making. =)

[nannerz]

Neither lol...no interest :( ...I think I'd rather try to make an archer instead. *_*

[Worthyness]

Neither lol...no interest :( ...I think I'd rather try to make an archer instead. *_*

lolz i has an archer already :cool:

Still looks to be maining an infighter for now (I love how people only bandwagoned cause they had 1337 damages). But gunslingers do look fun. I might make another one if i have time. Senior year is killer...:f3:

[Sivrat]

Infighter, got Kensidan lined up and am slowly filling his inventory, as well as all other characters on that account, with EQ items, got some equips enough to where i shouldnt need to raise my dex or upgrade anything until level 70. Then i get to start scrolling ZHelm, and looking for better FS.

[Eriko]

and here i thought infighters would have an overwhelming majority lol

[Moonlapse]

Gunslinger.

Multiple summons and high single target damage DPS at 4th job=my style of play.

[Acim]

Gunslinger. I hope eventually people quit their Gunslingers or the majority of the community doesn't make one, I want cheap guns.

EDIT: Wait, wtp? Who bumped this from July?

EDIT2: I should lrn2readtopics.

[Colyo]

I'm so going gunslinger. Every RPG that has a gunslinger I go gunslinger. Ragnarok for example... Not only that, but they look like they play like sins except actually using strategy, which looks like it'll be a blast.

Looking at the drop tables, bullets are probobly going to be pretty cheap, which will be wicked. Not to mention they have a 1337 skill book! Float and backstep shot are both the coolest utility skills evar IMO, and theyre 2nd job. Not to mention they get a full screen AoE attack AND a hurricane like attack. I know they arent near as powerfull, but they have a solid and fun skillbook.

[Granada]

You only gain as much as a 10 - 29 Bowman. Not much of a loss.

Not much of a loss? Were talking a loss of more than 450 hp here.
For Gunslingers, thats critical hp.
Of course, Infighters get alot more hp than Gunslingers, but its not like lvl 10-30 takes a long time :f3:

[Colyo]

I don't see the fun in skipping 1st job anyway. Does rank matter that much? I wanna KPQ with my new gunslinger!

[Potora]

Both. I think that's what most people will do even if they don't admit it. :f3: They want to try out both of the new classes to see what all the hype is about. But I'm betting gunslinger will be my main.

[ItzTaylor]

Why is every1 going gunslinger?

I thought people said they were weak, and majority would be infighter. o.O

[Corn]

Why is every1 going gunslinger?

I thought people said they were weak, and majority would be infighter. o.O

It's called a gun XD.

But expect people with no strategy to drop off extremely quickly.
