    Define suck and good...

    They can buff allies with a random chance of it being exceptioinally good or bad..or with bad judgment/luck they can make it so you lose it all. However they usually provide more good than bad considering your COR doesnt suck, and can still put out great damage. 600 dmg Slug Shot COR? Definetly possible. Evoker's Roll for Refresh? oh yeah.

    A corsair's buffs are like playing blackjack on a scale of 1-11. 11 is jackpot, and 1-11 get stronger as the numbers get higher. Rolling a 12 is a bust and is undesirable. Each buff also has a lucky number besides 11 that's second only to 11 in potency. Since the highest number a corsair can roll on a single die is 6, a conservative corsair can hold on any number 6 or higher and never bust, ever. I however held on 7 or higher, because well, it's a gambling job.

    I played with my first COR a couple days ago. Reminded me of a bard, except with guns.

    Cor are fun to pt with, I think. My highest job is 32 so I don't know what it's like partying with them past that, but it's been fun so far. They just make things easier for everyone. Similar to bard, but they're pirates.
    No.

    there definetly one of my faveorite Allies.

    I love there smexi randomized buffs (speccially if you get the best one).

    and the ONLY thing they have minutely in a relation to a Bard is the fact that they can buff party members, Id definetly rule a fact out that Corsair is similar to Bard because it just isnt a truth

    Yes. All that really matters is whether you enjoy the job or not, and the only way to find out is by playing it.

    Not just that; all jobs have their place in the game. We all know that many are interchangable in most party situation (most specifically the different DDs), and because of this, people start to name some jobs better than other.

    I really liked corsair the last time I partied with one. Evoker's and healer's role were freakin' awesome on top of my refresh.
