			== Skill notes ==
			* '''Snipe''' (Marksman) normally hits for a fixed 195,000 to 199,999. If your own crossbow damage multiplied by 1,000% (critical hits included) is higher, Snipe uses that instead. Damage past the damage cap of 199,999 spills into up to 3 more hits of up to 199,999 each, so one Snipe shows at most 4 numbers, just under 800,000 in all. Anything beyond that is lost.
			* '''Concentrate''' (Bowmaster) keeps its usual duration: 120 seconds at levels 1 to 10, 180 seconds at level 20 and 240 seconds at level 30, with a 6-minute cooldown.
			* '''Buff durations.''' Every buff whose top-level duration was between 200 and 599 seconds now lasts up to 600 seconds (10 minutes), and lower levels scale the same way, so each level still lasts longer than the one before. Cooldowns are unchanged, and buffs that already lasted longer keep their time.
			* '''Maple Warrior''' lasts 600 seconds at level 1 and 10 seconds longer for each level after that: 690 seconds at level 10, 790 at level 20 and 900 at level 30.

			{{Changed\|In MapleVerse, a strong Snipe can pass the damage cap, buffs that lasted 200 seconds or more last up to 10 minutes, and Maple Warrior lasts 600 seconds at level 1, rising by 10 seconds a level to 900 seconds at level 30.}}
