Musketeer or Cannoneer

Hi guys, i got my new Archer to Rank 6 today.

My build is Archer 2 - Ranger - Scout 1 - Rogue 1 - Falconer

Stats are 50 con and the rest on dex, what should i pick now? Musket 2 or Cannon 2? Should i reset my status?

Will Musketeer work with this build?

Thanks for the help in advance

if you go musketeer, it isnt advisable to use feint+barrage because it will create weapon swap lag.

If i were you, i would pick mergen, because with rogue you have capture+arrow sprinkler, and with falconer you have circling+homing arrow. That is the complete set of mergen

i prefer musketeer over canoner

But If i go mergen path which Rank 7 class should i get?

Is it ok to be full dex musketeer?

it is very ok to go high dex as musketeer.

if you go mergen, at rank 7 it is either:
archer3 for lv 15 swiftstep and lv 15 multishot
or
ranger2 for lv 10 steadyaim and lv10 barrage

What is this weapon swap lag are you referring to? I have been a cannoner and that issue was fixed long time ago.

musketeer still has that lag

Try using a pistol and then using cannons skill ( with cannon as your alternate weapon) it does have a little lag lol

The lag is actually due to the server sending checks to your character to ensure that your character is holding the correct weapon stance.
Auto swap mechanics works like this.
If you are not using the correct weapon stance it will show
(your character is using the wrong weapon)
(tapping too fast)

It’s extremely visible esp with charged skill or hold on skill.

Quick cast skills will experience the most. Like snipe, and headshot.
Hold to charged full skills have minimal impact.

Same applies actually to multi shot types but when you need to release early it proc wrong weapon like quick tap.

If you question is it a ping issue. I will say it’s not i have way lower ping than you expected normally around 10-20ms total.

It’s just poorly coded weapon swap + stance check.
Also this is the main reasons why Koreans player assign weapons to hotkey. To ensure manual swapping so that it will not “roll back” to the auto swap and screw up the skills he wanted to cast.

the lag will become worse/noticeable when FPS is dropping. Try weapon swap when worldbossing for better result :stuck_out_tongue:

Don’t remind me.
That was horrible when every one there was skilling and “server calculation damages overload at types” to WB jesus cries rip auto Weapon swap.

Even skill cast with over heat or general skills that modify damages get stuck on cast -_-…

Is Muskeeter good for grinding/worldbossing?

What about Cannoneer? Im rly in doubt :frowning:

musketeer is good at worldbossing although a little riskier because you need to buttstroke the boss in melee range at the start of your combo. musketeer lack of AOE which is a necessity at grinding

if you want bad damage pick cannoneer
if you want good damage pick musketeer.
depends on your preferences.
if you want actual aoe then just go mergen.

Does Falconer supply the lack of AoE Muskeeter has?

i think it is circling+snipe but it is not easy to execute circling+buttstroke+snipe combo in under 10 seconds. Wait a minute! will the enemies who doesnt debuffed by buttstroke get the same damage as debuffed one??

Is cannonc2 that bad?
