    I know it's starting to get old but another day, another Marauder/Bucc related suggestion. :banghead:

    The actual stance % for Energy Charge does not match with the skill description. I think that it's currently 50% chance for level 40, instead of the expected 90% like it says in the skill description. There's an old guide that shows the old % chance.

    https://ayumilovemaple.wordpress.com/2008/09/19/maplestory-buccaneer-skills/

    Although this could also be reported as a bug, I really think that Marauders deserve to have 90% stance for their Energy Charge, considering that they can't always keep their charge full. 50% is not enough, we may have higher avoid than Warriors do but as a Melee ranged class it seems quite unreliable and lacking.

    Here's me testing with Level 39 Energy Charge, seems quite far off from 89%, definitely not within margin of error.

    I have also noticed this on my Marauder. The description of the skill says 90%, but it could very well be 50% in-game. It could be a typo on the description, or just something that wasn't changed.

    Hello Kimmy, is it possible to change the percentage to 90% or not possible?

    They already have skills with invincible frames. Having a 90% KB evasion on top of it is bit over the top, imo.

    I respectfully disagree, though I'm curious to hear what others think.

    As a fellow Bucc, I think that's a bit overkill to have I frames and 90% stance.

    If our 1v1 DPM output was more closer to Warriors then I may agree that 90% is slight overkill.

    Warriors get 90% stance and Achilles, Heroes and Pallies get PG on top of that, and DrKs while only maintaining 50% HP get HB Elemental Resistance.

    It takes longer for Buccs to max their core skills and even then we're only DrK+SI tier with maxed Demo when transformed, and worse than that without transformation.

    Demo, Barrage and Dragon Strike are grounded skills so we lose a bit of our already mediocre DPM when we do unfortunately get KBed, so we need a boost in 1v1 damage to compensate imho if stance gets left at 50%. Our mobbing damage output however is already great though thanks to removal of delay on DS.

    thats the benefit of a Warrior. is having 90% Pstance.
    its like benefits of a priest having Holy symbol and a thief having Haste. some classes has their pros and cons. i think iFrames are broken, as i see my bucc friends sit on zak body forever and not get hit lol

    you can be a bucc and kill Kaachan Musha and have iframes, while a Warrior still takes hits but not knocked back

    Interesting, I guess I will wait until I level up have bossing experience on a Pre-BB Buccaneer, only then will I find it if the iframes do make up for it or not. I'd probably get hit a lot less than i think I do then. Thanks for your insight.

    It was perhaps a beta patch that slipped through public version, but just for the description. I still remember doing it though c:

    Also as a Bucc, I'm with Kimberly. We have iframes and corkscrew blow/backspin blow. There's just no need for 90% Stance chance.
