I saw a baucaneer use transformation and a short ranged laser skill, but someone on gamefaqs told me they got rid of transformation or something.

    Well, the transformation is half half. It's now a Mount. But when you shoot the laser, you will get transformed for the short time.

    Oh I see. I remember they said it was a mount now. They should've made it to an on/off skill.

    Yep. They also changed for Corsair the Ship to a Mount and the skill to a spawnable NPC that shoot. This sucks.

    At least they get to keep baccaneer blast. Mechanics and cannoneers lost their laser skills, which really sucks.

    Oh so it's just like any other mount. But at least you can still briefly transform.

    Just get to level 200. You get the transformation for a duration, which you can use your skills while its active.

    Bucc here.

    Transformation mount - I forgot how I got it but it's male regardless of your characters gender.
    Laser - still have it. Short when not charged, as long as sharkwave when charged.
    Trans and skills - doable via 5th job "meltdown" skill. It transforms you and you can use laser during said transformation. That or shoot two balls of fire. Looks pretty neat when you use POU while transformed

    Oh okay thanks! How does the charging thing work? And is there a cooldown to it?

    Well to be honest, Buccs & Corsairs are the worst class at the moment. Probably will be for a long time. The skill isn't very maneuverable, short range blast from buccs. Also transformation goes down slowly every time you use a skill, but to be honest. It drains so fast that i barley get to kill anything with it. Also corsairs are just a no. The bomb coming out of the ship isn't very controllable or does it barley kill monsters. Also the fact that Buccs & Corsairs don't have ANY RANGE or maneuverability.

    I feel like we should post a poll and ask the CM's to talk to someone above them to revamp corsair and bucc.

    I agree. They should make it so that bucc's blast is usable again by having a constant wide range laser beam attack instead of a short range one, and also, make it so it doesn't consume energy, just mp. This is like a less effective version of mihile's former 3rd and 4th job laser beam skills. I'm just playing buccs cause they seem pretty cool.

    I don't like crosairs cause you have to use bullets. Jetts are actually the worst class since they're just a reskin of buccs and crosairs with a mix of mercedes. I'm glad they brought kana and hayato to gms over from jms and I'm glad they kept the japanese voices for the two classes in game.
