No. THF subjob is only good for money making.

Anything to say about choosing between bows (archery), and crossbows -> guns (marksmanship)?

And how many arrows do you get when you spend a measily 32000 conquest points? (gulp)

Crossbow is only for skill up. Use both long bows and guns in your level up PTs.

As for the conquest point bow, the answer is.... ONE.

Ture... but THF does give you the supplies for a Ranger to get good bullets. But Warrior is the best one for attack power?

THF subjob helps a little in moneymaking, but unless your main job THF is high (around 60 or so), don't expect to get rich. A subjob THF won't help THAT much.

Have you ever used the conquest point arrow or seen someone use it? Is it really worth all those points?

All those conquest points could buy me a lot of dezone scrolls that always seem to dezone me posthumously. :sweat:

Are you kidding me?!!

Sigh... at LEAST I thought it would be a 99-pack.....

Does it kill an enemy instantly or something? Otherwise, I cannot imagine anybody spending 32k conquest points to get ONE arrow.

No, it doesn't instantly kill. And no, I've never used it^^ It's a very frequently asked question in 2ch though so everybody in there knows how it works lol.

Basically it does do very good damage (and the extra elemental damage is very good too). But no way anybody is going to use it especially with the TP reset for switching arrows.

hmmm.... how about using it with Endless shot ability (so you never lose the actual arrow?)

Considering the TP loss, you would have to use it in the beginning of battle, or right after you do your WS, but as long as you can quickly change the arrows back and forth, and with Endless shot ability, this could work.

I guess I will definitely get the conquest arrow and try~.
