I always wondered what the point of the concept of str bandits was, it always seemed really pointless and I'm not sure what they were going for. They had the cooler daggers but they were weaker.
>>736425041https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNt2xiTBYM8&list=RDyNt2xiTBYM8
>>736426081The STR daggers were actually stronger, but the extra attack didn't offset the damage lost from less LUK.STR Bandits did win in the end though, because of those attack shields, Khanjar and Dragon Khanjar.

I always found it odd that you were permanently locked out of doing pq's once you were above the level threshold. Maybe they could "level sync" you down once you're past it, and not reward any xp but that way you can carry your friends through it?
>>736427405>but that way you can carry your friends through it?That's something they would obviously want to avoid.
Remember that feeling of going on a journey down the Eos Tower in Ludibrium?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSPCrPrepREhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqWeh-dkwu4

>>736423837What should the name of the /v/ guild in classic be called?We've already had Spooky, Archived, PageTen, NotAgain, Comfy, Kusoge, Skeletons, retards, Trash, Infinite(this was actually a cripplechan guild),
>>736427910Man I really yearn for a version of Maplestory where everyone is wearing the vanilla armorsets.No NX(or at least minimal), and more importantly, no gay autism equips (sauna robes, bath robes, maple weapons). The latter ruined all the private servers; nobody played the game humbly.
I will play solo and quest just like i did back in the day
>>736428540Should they make quests give meaningful xp?
>>736428540Anon, make some friends.
>>736428618Nah internet friends are not real, i just put on deathmetal and grind for 10 hours alone in serenity.

>>736426615closed beta sign ups are here... you DID sign up, right? :)
>>736432857but anon this is a blue board!
Why would they need to drag the release out this much? It’s an already released game. Just get on with it
>>736433316They already said they want to make sure the release is as good as possible, and that requires time.They already said they could've released it late last year, but chose not to because they wanted it to be better.Classic is a passion project driven by Nexon America, not the Korean branch. There won't even be a Korean Classic.
>>736433554>Classic is a passion project driven by Nexon America, not the Korean branch.Oh wow, I did not know that.
Why could mages equip some maces?
>>736433695Maplestory had a different philosophy back then.Whereas STR bandits were simply an alternate build that didn't work out well, Maces were an option for mages to have a stronger melee attack for when they ran out of MP.It wasn't good nor smart but without them, mages literally couldn't function when manaless.
What are they doing with magic guard? That was one of the skills that completely ruined the balance of old maplestory. Mages should not be tanks.
>>736432354>add you>gets you to tell me the track>boot you from the party>add my friend instead>get inNothing personnel.
>>736434796It's just a toggle now.Also mages are fine as "tanks" because "tanks" aren't a thing in Maplestory. Otherwise they'd literally be unable to play the game.
>>736434796Without magic guard, mages would literally just fucking die. Also it's not tanking if they still have to constantly chug pots even with MG.
>>736435190>>736435240No, it's a load of shit that mages can take hits from every hard-hitting enemy in the game while archers and thieves don't.Being able to tank hits should be a quality unique to warrior classes. Other classes should be required to depend on support, or be forced to rely on bulk-providing equips and items to survive, not a skill that makes it braindead.
>>736435391Extending from this, if you're going to have the skill at all, it should be restricted to magic attacks only. Magic Guard should not guard against physical attacks like touch damage.
>>736425507Nipple boy
>>736434796I see nothing inherently wrong with magic guard. % based potions should be removed however.That way there is an actual cost on the skill in the form of the higher costs of mp potions compared to hp, much like the way ranged classes have to deal with their consumables.
>>736435391>>736435469You're still not providing an alternative so mages can play the game and not instantly die.
>>736435391Don't get hit then
>>736435537You're still not justifying why mages should get free bulk while archers and non-bandit thieves aren't allowed that luxury.I know it's hard for your autistic brain to understand this, but being frail is a perfectly valid weakness, and a way to balance a class. Warriors are slow but bulky. Mages can teleport and fma attack, but die more easily, oh wait nexon made them bulky too, no wonder the old maplestory meta is so heavily centralized around them.
>>736435391Archers had their huge range, higher avoidance, and later on, puppet.Thieves had their extremely high mobility and dark sight along with skills like Endure mitigating chip damage.Mages had to attack in the same range as warriors with no mobility outside of teleport and nothing to help them dodge attacks.
>>736435675Perfectly valid. In exchange for having an FMA + teleport, mages should be incentivized to actually avoid getting hit instead of being able to rely on their huge mp for survivability.
>>736435793>Archers had their huge range, higher avoidance, and later on, puppet.>Thieves had their extremely high mobility and dark sight along with skills like Endure mitigating chip damage.Absolutely none of this helps for bosses.>Mages had to attack in the same range as warriors Now you're being completely disingenuous.If we're talking about the 4th job meta, mages had the most broken range in the game by so far it isn't even funny.Every class could get far better exp by just leeching off a bishop than actually killing the monsters themselves.
>>736428512Sauna robes and bath robes are fine. Getting rid of them will simply disproportionately benefit classes like magician, pirate and warriors that will go with low-level overalls as their alternative.Maple weapons though should get nerfed.
>>736435712I can tell you've never even tried playing a mage, you have no idea what you're even talking about. Go on, go find a private server right now and try playing a mage without using Magic Guard and seeing just how unfun it actually is.
>>736435712>>736435831>>736435974Just get rid of FMAs instead.
>>736436025why can't autists like you even consider the possibility of making adjustments to the game to incentivize all classes to use their job equips and disincentivize x-less builds.
>>736436085I can tell you're an autistic idiot because you keep missing the point.Frailty is a valid weakness when a class has teleport and a fma. You have zero arguments against this.It doesn't matter how much this upsets you. One of the major problems with your shitty private servers is how much late game revolves around mages.
>>736436123can guarantee you that would make >>736436085 cry even harder.I'm not aware of any other games that allow mage classes to supplement their mana pool for health. It contradicts the very nature of being a mage. They are not supposed to be strong tanks that can take heavy hits from huge powerful monsters.
>>736436231Yep, never even played a mage. Just some brainlet warrior seething at a skill he doesn't actually know shit about.
>>736436374I've played mage, my retarded autistic friend. My point is still entirely valid though.Unfortunately your demented autistic brain doesn't allow you to see the bigger picture.
>>736436374NTA, just want to say that I can't be bothered to reply to that retard anymore.
>>736435974>Absolutely none of this helps for bosses.They did though. Archers were the safest against bosses due to that range and puppet and dark sight along with haste and their natural mobility let thieves be able to maneuver around attacks.If you're talking about 4th job then you're already out of it because you're complaining about the potential a mage has and not the actual journey to achieve it -- whining about magic guard because holy symbol exists is retarded.
>>736436486You lost the argument, idiot.
>>736433316The last test was full of bugs, assassins couldn’t properly jump and attack, magician skills had a fucked up range, and so onThis is not the same exact game they made 20 years ago but in HD, it’s a new game made from scratch
>>736436338>I'm not aware of any other games that allow mage classes to supplement their mana pool for healthIt just comes in different forms like "shields" (Skyrim does this)
>>736436605>it’s a new game made from scratchThis. It's not a 1:1 port of old Maplestory files to form a 1:1 Classic experience.It's rewriting everything from scratch using the old files as reference and doing balance changes along the way.
>>736436553LOL what bosses champ? 1st - 3rd job had no relevant bosses. Dark Sight? LMFAO, do you even realize this doesn't protect against non-touch damage? In fact, it's a completely useless skill in combat because you can't attack while it's active.>If you're talking about 4th job then you're already out of it because you're complaining about the potential a mage has and not the actual journey to achieve it -- whining about magic guard because holy symbol exists is retarded.This entire paragraph is utterly idiotic and doesn't make even a sliver of sense.
>>736436683>1st - 3rd job had no relevant bossesI'm not reading the rest of that post before you tell me how you expect mages to reach 4th job without magic guard
>>736436715By actually putting in an effort to avoid getting hit you laughably stupid idiot xDOr better yet, focusing on equips that actually improve their bulk instead of minmaxing damage like you autistic freakazoids are so obsessed with.
>waaaaaah I'm getting outtanked by those stupid handsome mage CHADS they're supposed to be fucking nerds how can this happen???????????
Also love how the autistic moron ignored this idea entirely >>736435469This would actually be a perfectly reasonable middle ground, and afford mages plenty of options to train without trying to hard to avoid hits, because magic guard would still protect them from ranged magic attacks.Alas, the autist will remain in his pattern, and demand mages remain as bulky as warriors, while also having teleport and fma.
>>736436778>By actually putting in an effort to avoid getting hitIn those levels you have no range and no mobility beyond a set range teleport. Fighting mobs that randomly spawn in while only being able to be hit twice before dying (and then losing XP when you do die) makes it impossible.
>>736436338It’s because of the 2D nature of the game, most multi target skills expect you to take damage, like Lightning bolt, how are you supposed to use Lightning bolt without taking any damage? Sure there are some maps with platforms but those are very limited
>>736436914Rather than autistically dig your heels trying to rationalize a dumb skill that makes mages bulky, perhaps you should try thinking outside the box.Perhaps what really should happen is mages should get their HP buffed, or get certain range-based skills buffed, or be forced to actually invest in luk which contributes to avoidability.
>>736436873You already got BTFO by the anon that mentioned tanking isn't even a real thing in Maplestory. Do I need to remind you that mages weren't even the best class in Classic maple? Clerics were but for reasons that are completely irrelevant to your complaints. All the FMAs and Magic Guards didn't do shit to make them better than other classes because that's not what's important in Maplestory's meta.
>>736437046So the lightning mage should be forced to train on monsters and/or areas that don't swarm you with high touch damage.High spawn rate flat maps should work specifically for warriors that can tank the touch damage and utilize skills that clear mobs.
>>736437093>Rather than autistically dig your heels trying to rationalize a dumb skillIt's not rationalizing, it's how the game worked. You're being asked to provide an alternative and the only thing you've been doing has been crying about people not agreeing with you while saying mages are supposed to be two-shot despite no other jobs being that frail.
>>736437201Anon, relax, you lost. You don't need to keep doubling down on your own stupidity. Everyone who played old Maple, Royals and Legends realizes how centralized the late game is around mages.
>>736437093>Perhaps what really should happen is mages should get their HP buffed,>>Magic Guard is terrible because it makes Mages tankier than Warriors>>To fix this lets make Mages as tanky as warriors without the potion burning
>>736437237This just tells me you're illiterate.There are plenty of alternatives and I've written multiple.>>736437304I suggested buffing mages HP to make them slightly more viable in the context of not having magic guard.Somehow, your demented autistic brain interpreted this as "make Mages as tanky as warriors".I didn't even come close to saying this, downie. Learn to read.
>>736437397All this posturing and you still can't offer something good to replace magic guard with
>sharing a guild with these people
>>736437295So why isn't Classic World doing anything about the specific things you're complaining about while they are nerfing things like Assassin and the Cleric skills you seemingly don't care about? Maybe the devs don't actually see a balance problem with them and your dumb ass is just seething?
>>736437476I already did, but your autistism-riddled brain failed to comprehend. You are forever stuck inside your private server frame of mind.
>>736437484>sharing a guildPeople like this don't play the game. They just live in the time they played the game a decade ago.
>>736437484Just have to hope they're not the guildmaster.
>>736437513So now you're falling back to claiming the developers know best and must be trusted as absolutely correct? Nexon?My god, you're an even bigger moron than I first thought. Good job.
>>736437539>I already didYou just ambiguously suggested an HP buff without understanding the rest of the mage's kit.
>NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND! MAGES HAVE TO BE EXTREMELY BULKY OR ELSE THEY WON'T SURVIIIIIVVVVVVVEEEEE!
>>736437594This is the first time they've ever gone back to classic and started rebalancing things. If they're not touching Magic Guard, then it just shows how much of a non-issue this actually is and you're just being butthurt for no reason.
>resorts to wojack postingwelp.
>>736437707He's resorting to spamming wojacks anon
>>736437609No idiot, I wrote that as one of potentially many things that could be adjusted in order to make them viable without allowing them to allocate their mana pool as bulk.My main point is that they should be forced to be more cautious about being hit, but your tiny autism-riddled brain cannot even comprehend such a notion.
>>736437707It actually shows how much of an idiot you are for blindly trusting Nexon of all companies with game design, and still being too mind-numbingly stupid to realize how dumb it is for mages to be just as bulky as warriors.
>>736437736Why do autistic retards like you always cry spamming every time someone posts something you don't like? Do you not understand what spamming means? Or what it entails?
This isn't even the first time he's sperged out over Magic Guard. Dude is an obsessive schizo over this skill.
>>736437969>lose an argument>"g-ghh man this guy is such a schizo! how could anyone even dare suggest taking bulk away from my favourite class?!"You're finished, moron. Swallow your pride and move on.
>>736438029NTA but you still haven't explained how to fix magic guard
DID SOMEONE SAY MAGIC GUARDGRAAAAAAAAAAAAH
>>736438067Nope, I have. You were just too autistic and unintelligent to address the suggestions.
>>736438067He's never played a mage, he thinks they can function properly with their minuscule HP pool.
>>736438114>Nope, I haveHow?
>>736438171I'll repeat myself for you, autismo.1. Get rid of magic guard, buff mage HP slightly, force mages to invest in bulk-improving equips, luk AP for avoidability, buff range-based skills like thunder spear, element composition. Buff Partial Resistance in conjunction with a revamped defense formula so they can derive resistance per elemental class (ice/lightning actually resists ice/lightning attacks).or2. Change magic guard so it only works on magic attacks. This way mages can still efficiently train on maps with magic-attack using monsters with safety platforms and/or non-high spawnrates. High spawn-rate flat maps are more favourable to classes that are actually suited to mobbing, eg- warrior.
