UA Sair vs UA Bucc.

There WILL be a revamp, the question is really " When is the revamp?" Nexon can't go about revamping 3 of the adventurer branch and adding awesome passives to the heroes and NOT do anything with the classes that need the revamp the most (mainly looking at Buccaneers and Nightlords. Shads have it pretty good and corsairs could use a few adjustments here and there as well, but they're mostly set already).

Even then, I give it Summer of 2012 before that hops into GMS, so I hope that if you know you'll be playing maple in 1 year, you should be good on deciding now. Otherwise, look into other Possible UA characters. Here's my keyboard layout for my buccaneer. Note that I have a funny place that I put [jump] and [loot] so all my attacks are based around the far left of the keyboard. the insert button has a macro for SI and booster.And the other macros are for the glitched haste and HB.

And finally, builds wise, Muppy has it right: sharkwave will get you instantly to level 120 no problems at all. It outranges pretty much any attack you will ever get in your arsenal (minus Dragon strike, but even then it's questionable) and does decent damage and a faster speed than Dragon strike. You essentially max every single one of your skills anyway (except maybe dash in 1st job, but i have max haste so it doesn't make a difference). You will use sharks till at least 125 when you have a decent level of dragon strike. even then, it may be better to have sharkwave until you max out dragon strike. Otherwise, go visit the pirate section for takebacker's buccaneer guide.

Oh thanks so much for posting your layout!!!
Playing MS in another year is questionable (because honestly I'm a lil surprised that I'm still playing it now) but I know the only 2 possible UAs I would want would be pirate class.
Now back to the layout. I'm assuming you are not a UA bucc (since you didn't mention that you are) with that said wouldn't my layout consist primarily of Sharkwave and Dragon Strike like you said, not talking about buffs. I see you have a lot of skills in your set up and my guess is you alternate attacks a lot to cover more ground (front and back attacks and so on). That's one of my main concerns if I go the Bucc route. I just can't see myself being able to juggle more than maybe 4 different attacks (not counting buffs again).
Thoughts?
