>>549989147As Astra Aegis comes, KMS warriors will embrace shield too just like GMS interactive. So pic rel should be more accurate explorer warrior illust. Ascent cutscene should have Hero and Paladin with shield. As no human warrior uses 2 handed weapon aside from Chad DK and Aran. 2 handed sword is Kaiser only, no one would use 2 handed axe and hammer after Astra Aegis arrives!! Just like GMS interactive!
>Kinesis remasterthe fuck
is this the worst showcase we've ever gotten, holy fuck its literally nothing
>>549992054found the loser that isn't even 280 lmao
imagine having to get to 285 for lvl 3 link skills, stupid fucking ricemonkies deserve it
Sex with AB after she uses the gender change coupon
>>549992950Why is maple world being woke, with Mihile being transgender after empress has fallen, 9810 must die? Would maplestory have black class?? Need Yasuke as 3rd Akatsuki class(Warrior/pirate) who uses both sword art and arquebus like DFO's gunblader.
>>549992950Is there Hijab hair or helmet cosmetic in GMS, to put the Knight of Light on Hijab?
turn on ur voicechat vbwo we goin bossin
>>549991795Can't Kinesis lose a shit ton of burst if the boss moves even a tiny bit or was that changed with the 2min update? They kind of do need an update, I probably would have considered making a boss mule of it since the class concept is cool.
>>549997158I was hoping for a Kaiser remake desu.
>>549989147Would KMS explorer warriors still use 2H weapon or convert to 1H and shield when Astra secondary is released?
Do we like the AI yes or no
>>549999306which part is the ai
>>550000205the art
>>550000381meh its not a big deal.AI is advancing so fast these days you won't even be able to tell the difference soon
>KMS adapting the extalia monster park meta Eggbois we won
>>550000381They blocked strapless bikini from AI portrait. I wanted to make Female knight in bikini armor portrait. Fuck Lee Jae Myung for censoring custom portrait...
>tfw predicted the second sol anus being bossing and SF secondaryman i am just too smart for this shit lmao CHANGSEOUP and Inkwell both get their ideas from my posts
so what exactly did maple do to attract bikinischizo
>>550001759I tried AI portrait system with Dawn warrior on Strapless bikini, but strapless bikini is not allowed to take portrait.
>Maxed regular Sacred Symbols will also give +10% additional EXP each.woah
can I get a QRD (quick rawdog) on the showcase?
here you go bro>2 endgame bosses>improved cw3>some qol>worst class remaster
>>550004910https://www.reddit.com/r/Maplestory/comments/1pli2tp/maplestory_crown_showcase_highlights/it was a whole lot of NOTHING
>>550004910>Ymir and Jupiter boss, new true end game ahead of XKaling >295 area, leveling around 275-280 smoothed>Secondary>level 11 symbols give a boost against a specific grandis boss now and bonus exp>Destiny Lib part 2, TFA Limbo Baldrix in that order>CW3 has a burn to 280, a partner mechanic or something, and an exclusive boss>New bossing universal core thingy>Kinesis aura farming rework, okay but imagine if 7th job actually was friendstory though>optional AI gen avatar but I guess it's ethically sourced off the game's own assets so whatever
when is the next tms showcase? i want a new jianghu class for cw3
oh yeah I guess 3 bosses 295 area posts were correct. good job leaker-chans
>>550000381Overall a step up from having your sprite displayed in the text box. I think they should still give the option to players who are playing a class with an already existing portrait should be able to use that class's portrait.
>>550007006-2
>>549997382Kinesis is in a much worse state than Kaiser tbf, people just don't think about it because it has less players and dodged meme bad status like WH
>>550005183the changes are pretty good, even a retard like yourself will be able to hit 295 with the monster park changes, idk why so many retards are seething about new bosses they consider "out of reach" when they are making hitting end game freer than ever
>>550000381damn I hate ai slop but this is a pretty intriguing application, interested to at least see how it does my characters
>>550007496people are very shortsighted in this game, weird because this is the most long term planning game I can immediately think of. like people didn't probably weren't even thinking about oncoming brilliant set meta when they saw pitchie stuff they thought that was it
>>550008279I can understand why people thought pitch would be a more long lasting meta, since it looked like higher end game bosses would just keep them relevant by adding "enhancements" adding stats to previous equipment instead of replacements, I think it will still be a long time before brilliant replaces most pitched items, maple metas still last a very long time, I used to play wow and your "bis" got outdated and replaced every 6 months whenever a new raid came out and it was honestly boring and exhausting having everything invalidated every 6 months, that said maple gear also takes a stupid long amount of time to acquire since the sf system is so shit that an item dropping doesn't even guarantee a gain.But yeh the average mapler is short sighted and retarded and cant see beyond their own nose
>>550008909brilliant set is worse than pitched 10 set, it won't be meta for another 10 years, you are the short sighted retard you describe
>>550009040did you even read your own post
>>550007675if you ignore the artifacts it does a pretty decent job and it seems to be compatible with most cosmetics. It also helps that it generates multiple images so you can pick the best option.
>>550009257regshitters are short-sighted retards? yes
>>550009408I know you feel threatened because you know it's about you, but try to think more than a month ahead next time you see a patch note.
>>550009040Brilliant items can receive 3 exceptional enhancements compared to pitched's 1. Brilliant items also have higher base stats. Cumulatively brilliant's set effect beats pitched for the same amount of items equipped. Yeah of course pitched is better at the moment because the set is complete but when the brilliant set is finished it will outclass the pitched set.
>>550009741>when its completeyeah in another 10 years, as it stands its worse than pitched
>>550009731>do nothing>winits that easy hombre
Kaling if she green
it's gonna be 8 set in a year and you won't have any btw
i'll monster park to 295 past your ass and be 10 set brilliant in 6 months lil regbro
another heroic dubinteractive is truly at a loss here
you still won't be clearing anything even at 290 I dunno where you think the drops are coming when you'll be hardstuck gene weapon until eos
>>550000381gms won't get it
the only one hardstuck here is you my regshit friend, i will be doing everything you did in a fraction of the 15 years it took you to reach 290 from 20 hour days of wapping i will be doing in dailiesi won bigly and you are btfo forever and cant recover :)
stop coping and put the black mage in the bag already no one cares
>everyone gets to do strawberry farm to 29x now in like a half yearwappers lost
>>550009040>I think it will still be a long time before brilliant replaces most pitched itemsI literally said this u fucking retard mong
once again my dailystory gains have been invalidated
>>550012282wappers still win, monster park/strawberry is like buying sauna, you'll be high level but have no frags and no mesos, trust me in the future no one will give a shit about your level they will be inspecting your 6th job progress and sf levels
>>550000381holy tits
>>550012505he doesn't wap so he doesn't know why it's called a wap and not an eap, the drops are the important part
how do i add huge boobs to my ai generated maple avatar
>>550013539no point in wapping when all your time is invalidated on a whim>>550012505they'll start handing out as much frags as nodestones so that point is moot
none of it was invalidated, even if you hope it will be
if you're playing more time than what it takes to do dailies, you've already lost.
this is like getting shat on by your teacher for never missing homework and letting all the chad daily jocks pass you easily with less effort
guys pls big boobs
>>550014480>they'll start handing out as much frags as nodestones so that point is mootThe cost of 6th job upkeep just keeps getting more and more expensive, and it will continue to get more expensive, if you think event check ins are going to give you 50k+ frags anytime soon you're delusional
you didn't pass anyone though, all your gains are for the fashion you might as well be afking in cernium for all the good it does you if cw2 characters are more accomplished
>>550014925you get big maple boobs by taking a screenshot of your maple character and telling grok to give it big boobs
>>5500150696th job is ending soon and its only logical they will start making events and checkins to get as much frags as everyone who wasted hours wapping for them lmao
>>550015118solo prog bm kill mogs fraud cw and taxi'd to grandis cucks so i think im still the best player here
HYPEGODRION GODCHADS WON AND KEEP WINNING
>>5500154126th job doesn't even have most of it's shit yet and we haven't even said hi to darmoor either what are you talking about. We're still basically in the mid game of the grandis narrative arc that this job is centered around, if anything it's gonna slow down
>>550015412>6th job is ending soonbwo we're still missing 2/4 common nodes and 4/6 skill nodes which will take at least 3 years at the rate things are going
fucked up to say this but realistically we aren't even 50% done with grandis
what % are we at? 30%?
this is only the 3rd apostle fight out of who knows
>>550016773only 2 more origin slots and 2 more support slots, they can release the hexa stats in batches of two or three, 6th job is pretty much 80% done and will be finished with by end of 2027>>550016562will likely all release within this year if they just announced a pack of 3, we can expact another pack of 3 or 5 next
>half of grandis is just fighting angry woman, first adversary and some random gods instead of the main enemieswhat is changsoup thinking?
we've fought like 4 apostles out of 12 including Ymir and excluding Magnus and Darmoor himself, and 1 died so far nothing is happening we're gonna be here for a fucking minute dude
that's what people said about bm changes, they said it wont happen till 2030 lmao
>>550017762but you've forgotten about... the tab that has yet to exist and is unlocked at lvl 295...
>>550017762uhh bwo you might want to check ur maths
My guess is that they will all be released at once in an Epic Dungeon lvl 290. Last boss will paid stage to enter, 15k mp points.
>>550018319Enough space for one more tab
not related, even if they went fast and did 3-4 bossesthat were all apostles per year and then went immediately into darmoor it'd still likely be going into 2029 or something just to reach the end of that, and then maybe a couple years later for them to make 7th. 5th to 6th was 7 years, mind you, so that's still a decently liberal estimate.
>>550018319Two origin skills + 1 support node + two hexa stats in summer and again in winter so it tracks.
>>5500185074th to 5th = 14 years5th to 6th = 7 years6th to 7th = 3.5 years so basically mid 2027 or 2028
>>550018484definitely future proofingwonder what they'll stick there
>I'm not shortsighted! You are shortsighted!>so uh 6th job is almost over right guys? surely?are you serious right now nigga
>>550018695Hexa familiar
>>550018701More than 70% done, anyone can tell its almost over besides your faggot discord
>>550018695I'm guessing that's the 7th job tab.
>>550018992that would be the lamest shit ever
>>550018865this mapligga doesn't knyo we're ending this at 350
short-sighted is everyone who rushed legion champs (invalidated by 280 burn) or 290 (invalidated by exp crunch + grandis mp)waitgods won big
>There's also a CW Partner system added, where you can pick one other person to progress with. Farming will give your partner exp, and vice versa. You can also clear bosses together for fragments, an partneroid, a couple ring, and a title called "Eternal Partners" we can share a poopsock, how romantic...
which archived wants to be my girlfriend(male)
>>550021496I miss chase...
>>550018525>Two origin skills + 1 support nodebwo did you skip math homework to wap we're not missing 3 skills we're missing 6
This game's dead, just release Classic at this point.
>>550022154Yes, 3 slots in summer, 3 slots in winter, done by end of 2027
>>550022380there won't be multiple at once since the skill cores and common cores are meant to be big game changers, that's why origin, janus, ascent and hekate were all separateyou're looking at 6 big updates minimum but probably more than that to also introduce the remaining 4 nova/flora/anima classes before darmoor's defeat
>>550024491I think if they wanted to drag it out so much they would've released more slots for boost nodes or skills but since they haven't I'm leaning towards them just ending hexa early and moving onto 7th job and releasing new level cap and areas before darmoor.
it's gonna take at like minimum 3 more years if they move efficiently and only do things that would move us towards the end of 6th job but realistically like 4 or 5. We'll probably end up in Central Grandis for the end since there's nothing there on the map besides Savage Terminal which is really weird looking and not how they usually do map screens
>>550012760boobs indeed
>>55002668710/10
>>550025285there's no need for more boost or mastery cores because most classes don't use that many earlier skills, and those that do can just have 1 mastery boosting multiple skills. it's also necessary to leave room on the keyboard for the 10 new skills from common and skills cores. if nexon was trying to rush 6th job and grandis they wouldn't be padding things out with all these non-apostle filler bosses while drip feeding the actually new common/skill cores(2 in 2023, 0 in 2024, 2 in 2025).
>>550026687pretty excited for this to come to gms
lol? they look like shit
im not sure why they're so pale but ill buy a few of them
it's doing a pretty good job if it can recognize that's supposed to be miku
yes it is i will be hitting up my tespia account and speedrunning every character from a litigious franchise so that this does not make it to main server and especially not gms
it recognizes the miku part well, but then completely flops when trying to interpret the AB horns.

>bikini schizowhat the fuck
losing my mind
am I correct to assume that the Challenger Keys grant the challenger set effect to non-challenger equipment? if so, would it be a good idea to buy an arcane weapon and try to make it better than the challenger sword?or would it be better to try for better lines on my secondary?
of all the arcane items the weapon is the worst one to get, you're replacing it with the genesis weapon
Would GMS interactive's warriors change to 2H if Astra subweapon arrives? Warrior shield doesn't get scroll carried over to Astra Aegis, and Astra medal/rosary/jewel is starforcable.

nyothing in the fan art section idk where they'd put them3x treasure chests got them like
>>550074072why is strapless bikini(cutie bikini) costume not allowed on portrait generator? Hope GMS allowed swimsuits on portrait generator as West doesn't ban bikinis unlike Korea and China.
>>550082383i cannot wait until someone accidently gens a nude character
>>550082575Yeah. Wonder if Mermaid overall for body type B is allowed on portrait generator if strapless bikini isn't allowed.
>>550082575Can Mihile have gender affirmative surgery, since Cygnus has fallen?
I'm fairly sure they feed the character's gender into the prompt otherwise you could use a female hair on a male character with swim trunks so it thinks the character is "topless"on another note it doesn't handle the stack of pancakes hat very well it keeps trying to make it a real hat
90 minutes and only 3 rare chestsshit game
honestly think the ai portrait thing is kinda neat, even as someone generally against ai slop
>>550085131Does it allow mermaid overall, if strapless bikini is not okay?
the way i see it the only way to make this a job that could have been done by people is to create cookie cutter templates for the various skin colors, eyes, eye colors, hair, hair color, and equipment visiblewith how many decorative items there are in maple in addition to cash shop equipment now being able to be dyed there's no way that's feasible to be pushed out for every existing item in one update while also keeping up the production for every future cash shop update that brings new clothing and hairstylesif this was a game with much more limited fashion choices i would rather they take the cookie cutter approach than use ai but fashionstory is too bigit gets rid of the problem where all the important npcs have portraits and then whenever your character speaks it uses your sprite
it's tasteful imho so i'm fine with it
do i attempt 22 from 21 for my cra rn
FINALLY GOT CHOP WOOD YESSSSSSSSS

GRINDING WITHOUT CCPB IS SUFFERING
just $70 goy
>>550085131this might be literally the first time ive seen ai used in a way that wasn't a soul sucking vampire techbro ghoul way
I will NOT p2w
>tfw going to need to actually play the game during crown i imagine 4x exp coupons will be normal as well, and we will also have chest exp pity by then..game will be like 90% wapping...
finally, returning back to classic roots: grinding is king
all the cool kids were grinding anyway
all that grind only to get invalidated whenever changseop feels like it
the last 5 or so years of wapping is getting crunched into 1 year
not everyone got the foresight for this game all the 290+ are btfo rn
when is the anime collab happening, kinda dont want to waste money on this shit vac reviving for 10$ instead of 2$
holy shit not having a vac pet anymore feels so fucking ass i cannot go back to regular petsnexon really tried getting people hooked on this and it's working..
>>550118720if i was a new players and it was my main id just buy one for sure, but i already have 2 vacs, i'm not buying a 3rd just for fucking cw when I'm never going to grind on that char again after it leaps
imagine noticing that a certain feature in your game needs improvement, then instead of adding this improvement as an update to the feature, creating a new category within this feature and making it exorbitantly expensiveyou don't hate nexon enough
imagine needing to pay for skill books for some of your own class skills
>>550122363its worse than that, pre grandis maps you could get away with having no vac pet and still loot everything easily, it was slightly more effort but it was doable, grandis maps are designed so that without a vac, you can't loot/kill efficiently without getting worse rates, and it only gets worse the further into grandis you go
uh bros they only cost like 80b and can be revived with mesos?
so sengoku rework and sia m2 are probably in february too, right?
initial buy in is excusable if you didnt have a $9 or $2 us dollary doo sub to use the thingthe fucking sub is the most ridiculous part that shit adds up
>>550146828sea doesn't seem to get it until like april apparentlythey could conceivably add the new-flavored ascents in february without the revamp since they're simple and won't interact with any other class mechanics

do combo xp orbs even make a differencewhy even have them if they don't give any meaningful xp

im at like 279 11 i think ill train 1 more hour and then im good i got all my boxesill 280 this week between the tomato and epic dungeon and whatever elseafter patch is gonna be the shit (derogatory) so ill save my maplevril for it with the understanding that 280 today or 280 next saturday r functionally the same in the grand scheme
just hit 281
281 - 86%trying to see if 285 is possible before the end of the month...
Currently 283, 50%. I'll probably hit 285 by end of month.
>used all my boosters for the day without popping vip buff for that extra 15%im bwicked, bwos
nice cw gains guys, I'm tapping out on cw grinding without a vac pet until at least ride or die, think im like 276 60% or something, just dailystory for me, still aiming for challengerim focusing on grinding on main pushing towards 290 but mainly farming erda and funneling it to mules, think I've farmed at least 150 erda in 3 days, so far its going to my 3rd legion champ who is already prob pretty overkill for hseren champ mission at 60k hexa, easy runs are nice and I want to start doing bm on it monthly fairly quickly, once ascents come out all erda is going on main until that's maxed and then back to funneling to mulesrunning blaze wizard bosses this afternoon and its family mario party day so no more grinding for meim just doing a few hours a day, whatever I can manage, if I get a cor oh man maybe I can go for 6+ hours some days, I'd love to get in 10+ hours but alascombo orbs are really outdated and def need a revamp of some sort
280 before the end of the year is good pace if you have a job or somethingyou don't need 280 to hit challenger anyway 2bh I'm just planning on main swapping so I want to hit 285 before CW is over
nibbas do 1 sunny sunday grind and are like im going for 290
its really that easy yea
>10 bpot cubes>didn't tier up once from rare
10 cubes sounds awfully low
dem freebies from the event check in bruh
i forgot how boring this was
if you're not 290 already no point in doing it before the exp crunch
there's plenty of point for me but yeah to each their ownI want lv fd on xlotus, I'm gonna be trying to solo with ascent release, fd on normal kaling, fd on chaos kalos, fd on normal limbowouldn't be caught dead not able to do tallahart monster park on releasebut seriously stuff you do now you don't have to do later, I'd rather be focusing on 290-295 when that stuff comes out than 285-290its good mesos and great resources for my mules as well, pushing my strongest legion champs further into quicker grandis solo's, my bish I'd like to get to xlotus duo and then solo, so after main gets max ascent and I'm happy with night walker im feeding erda to bishop for the rest of the patch2x erda is good enough for me, almost 10 erda an hour is nutty even if you lose 70% of it transferring, building bank too can't complain
tallahart's story is really good and enjoyable and the maps are big rates at afk effort and apostle baldrix is a fun boss
the levels are for the content, starting it early gets it done faster and gives me more fun stuff to do
the familiar rank didn't change *makes you watch a 3 second animation of smearing shit in your face unless you manually take the mouse and click on the X*
I dunno why wapschizo is so furious about everyone catching up to him. I basically dailystory (although I do everything including maxed Guild Castle which is apparently not normal but seriously guys do it it's great and is only going to get better next time it's updated), my main will probably be hitting 290 right before the Summer patch (event EXP willing) and my 6th job is slowly starting to hit diminishing returns (although given how much more is still yet to come that isn't exactly a problem either way). And all that wapping for what? Being able to visit the new area right away and being able to get into the highest bossing parties? Okay yeah, that's not bad. But according to my outdated scouter I should be able to solo Normal Kalos (although given the boss has super negative uptime I'll probably need Ascent to help out) and party in Chaos. It's just not what I'm interested in yet, although I do want to give Limbo a try one of these days since it seems reasonable and 290 will give me enough extra fd% to not suck shit.

>>550170006I dunno man, his one post in this thread seems pretty passive aggressive about people catching up to him and has been pretty actively aggressive about his levels in previous threads. The gap's going to get a lot smaller. Hell, there's an entire pass for 280+ players in the new update meant to give people levels and includes Sol Erda Energy, which is the KMS/Interactive equivalent to the frag gate which might imply a change in GMS to better suit the two server solution. All I'm saying is that the game is designed around KMS whales spending money on mesos at this point either for frags or better gear upgrades, so level and 6th job are secondary and they're willing to accelerate it. It's weird that they haven't increased the level cap yet, the last time we got anywhere close was with Black Mage and the Tenebris areas coming out at the same time as the cap increase. Neo's update was right before Arcus before the area crunch, so it's not exactly unheard of but whatever. And given how they've been doing new areas as the first half of the update it's just a bit weird. Whatever, they're probably going to take an entire year to add anything good, but they're running out of older areas to pad with new bosses so I dunno what they're going to do.
i fartgot about the 2000 advanced exp vouchers in the checkins i will enjoy that on my len very much in our cheesing 280 endeavor
do u guys do 30min waps now cuz of buff sequence ? kinda annoying if i have to have 2hr waps on a separate key
*nom* *nom*(Lepa seems to be enjoying the snack)
>>550179575I haven't used buff sequence for that, but it would be weird if it automatically popped buffs that usually get a text box asking if you're sure you want to use them. Like, defaulting to no seems like the safe bet, defaulting to yes just seems unnecessary. That also having been said I'm pretty sure the smithing buff acts the same way and I'm too much of a coward to add that to the other one so I guess we'll never know. Regardless, there's an explicitly better mini only eap and its trivial to craft mini waps so that shit isn't relevant unless you have a gorillion regular eaps and/or have run out of the better mini eaps.
How are you guys able to comfortably watch a show while grinding? Janus expires in 1 minute and if you were watching something on another monitor, you would still have to be mentally keeping track of the time before setting up janus again.
>>550189220>you would still have to be mentally keeping track of the time before setting up janus again???
>>550189914So this just means that you would have to still constantly look between monitors keeping track of the timers and watching your show. I'm still wondering if this is considered comfy grinding
>>550190737also put janus and fountain on macro notifier, mute all sounds except UI so you get the ding
>>550190901Oh i didn't know it plays a ding that's a lot better
>>550189220put on a podcast or something that doesn't really require you to look at it too much, zone out for around a minute until summons expire, repeat 30 times until mini wap is completed, stand up and walk around for a bit
>>550191084Less a 'ding', and more a 'bwoop'
ride or die cvell doesn't know what's about to hit him
back in the day when we were black gate northern heights farming we used an online timer tool, if I recall correctly loot despawned at like 1min 52 seconds, so we had a timer for 1min 30 for lootinganybody know if they've changed the loot timer since then?been watchin joseph anderson lately while grinding, idk I got 3 monitors don't have an issue watching and grinding
Keeping track of a timer seems more complicated than just muscle-memorying a route and letting your vac pet whirr everything
well yea we didnt have vac pets back then this was like just a bit before 5th job and early 5th job, but yeah its a diff ball game with vac pets nowsummons on buff favorites is enough for me, I don't watch anything that needs 100% of my attention
interval-timer-offline ting ting every minute or minute*1.5. good setup for non-vac looting for 12 hours straight.
the optimal vac-less farming method is playing demon slayer
honestly i've wapped for so long that i've obtained a sixth sense when janus or fountain needs refreshingno need for timers
niggas with 3 monitors b like yea i got no trouble watchin...
>>550164507is this the first time you wapped in like 5 years? bro relax your not going to keep it up more than a week
>>550171475some retards probably don't even know the exp crunch is coming and will continue wasting their time wapping for 1/10th the gains
>>550207479u still need a fraggy crunch to catch up lil bro...
>>550207479When exp crunches happen it also adjusts your level to compensate, so someone who is level 300 might become level 330 after an exp crunch patch, it's not like their time wapping gets invalidated, they still get all the benefits and gains for the extra time spent in the game, and there will be no exp crunch till the lvl 300 cap is raised, tldr you're retarded
the extra exp from sol janus/symbols/boosters/portals/monster park IS the exp crunch u dumb fuck lmao exp needed per level won't be changed till lvl 300+ content comes out which is atleast 5 years away
that's not what a crunch is you stupid fuck, even then that doesn't really change anything because you'll still be a fraglet with hecate at level 3 or something
idc what level you are if your 6th job isnt maxed you're not invited to the party
>>550207910that's not how it works, all their time is invalidated and their level stays the same while everyone else goes on ahead
>grind to 290 in 3 months instead of 9 years>start farming more frags with the drop rate boost from symbolsi think i just found the loophole bwos
showcase was actually a really good way to show why all the serious people use hexa converted instead of cp or level and why no one gives a fuck about sauna ironically.
hexa/frag crunch is next so no one will be using it after that anyway
Can we use ascension skills in the field, or boss fights only?
shitters need maxed hexas to clear bosses lmao while everyone on reboot just bosses with lvl 1 hexas on mules
for definitions of bosses that include "chaos tenebris" yeah I guess that's true but we're talking about 6th job content not 5th
6th job content can be done with lvl 1 hexas as well if you got handsneeding max hexa is a cope for having no hands
the only thing blocking people from content rn is levels and not hexa, i think max hexa can be gotten in like 3 monthsmeanwhile 3 months is just 1 lvl from 285-286they're making 285-290 3 months instead so everyone will have max hexa at 290 anyway
so the only people who lose out currently are those with max hexa and 290+ since they just reduced the whole process by like 1/10theveryone behind them will max hexa and levels in a fraction of the time it took
there's already 290+ lens in kms like lolisamurai it does not take 1.5 years to get out of carcion alone what are you talking about brother
V matrix means 5 hexa means 6(:
what your saying isn't wrong that this will end up speeding up the process for everyone, it will and that's good because it does take too long, but the whole point is nexon knows they can get away with it because that's not enough to get people into the real end game by itself and they have to grind for that anyway which is probably healthier given the current state of the game because unless you can stream work from home or neet it up that's way too time consuming for most people
>>550210680chest pity + challenge world + 4x exp being standard pretty much made it too easy, they're training on 7x over there
>>550209294idk if you're retarded or trying to troll either way you're retarded and a troll and a massive shitter in ms
>>550210452>so the only people who lose out currently are those with max hexa and 290+ since they just reduced the whole process by like 1/10thThose people will just keep grinding and get closer to 300 and will get giga boosted to 300+ and beyond when an exp crunch does happen (still like 5 years away)>everyone behind them will max hexa and levels in a fraction of the time it tookThere is nothing to indicate that nexon is increases frag drop rate, even nodestones the old job currency is still a pita the acquire, you currently need 50,000 frags to max 6th, and the cost only increases as more cores are introduced, you also need meso to play this game which you won't get running monster park all day, you are retarded as fuck stop talking and coping shitter
>>550211598im not the one who needs max hexa for grandis bossing lilglup
>>550212386>lilglupduky watcher, confirmed retarded
>>550211807>Those people will just keep grinding not everyone will, i think most people will quit when the exp crunch happens since it invalidates years of grinding they had to doonly extreme nexon paypigs will stay after getting cucked
ok now i can sleep the dummies are arguing with each other
spent 5bil on symbols today
>>550212498again, there is no exp crunch happening anytime soon, no exp crunch will happen during 6th job, it will only happen when grandis is old content and level 300+ content is released, and it doesn't invalidate anything, levels get adjusted to compensate, that's not how any of this works, it's not like if you're 295 when a crunch happens you're still 295, that level 295 person will get automatically pushed forward to whatever the new end game area is, stop talking, you are retarded as fuck
kmst changes hot off the pressthey made it where demons can only convert ruin force shield secondaries into the new secondariesthey also gave DA a skill that lets them swap between 29 and 30 frenzy whenever
>>550213695there's an exp crunch that was just announced yesterday bro and we are getting that in summer, people who are 290+ who took years to get there have a level or two to gain tops before everyone is same level as themthe exp crunch happened way earlier than expected and it only doesn't effect the few lvl 300s atm, everyone short-sighted basically wasted their time for nothing, anyone waiting for the crunch to grind won
>>550213759>demon still dependent on pitched drop and now they can't even update to astral until they get the pitched drop or they're brickedjapan should've won the war
>>550213759oh my god man how is demon even more bricked without a rfs just let them gear
>>550214575monster park is not an "exp crunch", this is a live service mmo, the level cap is always increasing, new content is always being released, you either move forward or you fall behind, just stop talking because you are clearly retarded as fuck, there is no "frag crunch", there is no "meso crunch", you will always be a meso poor low hexa shitter if you don't wap, monster park will not save you, just like sauna it is the illusion of prog
why would he stop being a retard when you keep encouraging it
>>550214978keep coping shitter all your progress will be meaningless when everyone gets to do strawberry farm for 2% at 290 then get tallaheart symbol to get more mesos + frag gains
>>550215139easily gapped everyone here without even trying so whos the retard
>60% exp boost is not an exp crunch bwos
there's no reason to grind past 295 right now so anyone who did it already lost big
hypegodrion godchads going to be eating goodfree 295top 10 in dpm chartbest ascend out of all classesfree frags from hexa crunch events to maxx out 6 legion champs50bil/week income
>>550216497Based hyperionbro. We just keep winning.
I miss when different exp sources were multiplicative
burning field was like that right
>>550215349monster park wont give you free 295, if you do talahart monster park everyday you will get 1 level per year, again, you're retarded>>550215929sol janus is a 100% boost but it doesn't make a difference if you don't wap, an exp crunch means the amount needed per level is reduced, passive exp gains is not a crunch retard
>>550217129that's cope, wapping is the easiest thing in this game and it'll be made even easier so anyone who wasted their time wapping before the exp crunch has nothing to gain from it besides see others gain progress faster
>>550217734Wapping is only free if you macro, otherwise you're wasting hundreds, if not thousands of hours of your life doing the most boring shit grind in the gaming world.
>>550217734you're so desperate to be some le epic troll but I think you're actually retarded and believe the shit you're saying, everything you say is always just a bunch of shitter cope, no changes will ever make you good at this game, you will always be meso/frag/exp poor and behind everyone else no matter what happens
>>550218228no i waited for the best time to grind when exp crunch happens, its cope that the grinders will stay ahead since they can't outgrind the powercreep anymorepeople will have max hexa anyway on a main and it's all about legion champ mules in the end and i already got 6 LC's ready for whenever they unlock the slots and making 50bil per week just gotta play smarter, not harder
>>550217953yeah i sort of agree, wapping before the crown changes is only for retards who have no hands and need to max their hexas to overpower the bosseveryone else is basically fine doing grandis bossing with a maxed ori/m1/m2 and some lvl 10 boost nodes (like 10-15k frags)
wapping is a thing of the past, there's no fun in maxxing out to one shot the bosses
>>550218438>>550218665>>550218941retarded samefag coping
>>550218438just wait for the crunch after this one bro it'll be even more efficient!!!!
im not worried about fomo wapping or hexas because the lvl 280 epic dungeon will give out like 10T exp weekly and 500 frags and it'll be free on reboot :) meanwhile regcucks will be slaving away all their time over a $15 ticket every week
>>550219235wow grats u beta tested 6th job now everything will be given for free to those who wait it out instead of rushing :)
The only people wapping are service buyers and interactives anyway. Everyone on heroic just does dailies + boss bulers.
we are going to be one shotting ctene with lvl 1 ascent bros nothing to worry about
>>550220519Since when has maplestory ever given anything for free?You are reeeeetardedAlso the entire "just wait and hope for things to get easier" is a cucked mindset, you're going to be waiting a long time, and when the thing you're waiting for finally becomes free, it will be irrelevant.
>>550224279You arn't already one shotting ctene lmao?What a shitter, you're lvl 7 ascent isn't going to save you
if what you were saying was true then the first 250 should've been the first 275 and first 275 should've been first 300 but that wasn't the casethey went too hard and all got exp crunched/power crept by waiters/daily players and are nowhere to be seen now same will happen with the next level cap increase, the grinders today wont have any advantage and lose their time while everything they've done becomes invalidated
>>550226586you still get pushed forward retroactively relative to the exp you accumulated, this isn't world of warcraft where a new expansion drops and everything gets invalidated, when 300+ content releases in 5 years or something the people close to 300 will be pushed further into the 300+ zone and still get a massive head start on everything relative to where they were at previously, that is their "advantage"and you will still be struggling to get beyond 300+, and it's a live service mmo, the entire point is that the game is always building new content and higher levels are coming out, the grinders today will still be grinding and you'll still be a shitter in old zones "waiting for it to get easier", who gives a shit if you're finally lvl 295 in talahart in 5 years if there is 7 new zones above talahart and everyone else is level 330+, keep on waiting bozo cuck.And again, get this through your retarded brain, exp alone is almost irrelevant in modern maple beyond sacred power symbols and level fd for bosses, fragments are the most important resource in the game, do all the monster park you want, do all the strawberry farm you want, those 5 30x fragment coupons you get every 3 months won't save you when 6th job is going to require 50k+ fragments to be maxed out, I have friends who barely farm and cheat their levels with sauna and their 6th job is awful and so is their damage, how are you going to max all the masteries, your origin, your janus, your ascent, and that new bossing companion if you don't farm, you really think they are going to start handing out 10s of thousands of free frags when 6th job isn't even close to being finished yet? .
>>550228564>the people close to 300 will be pushed further into the 300+ zone and still get a massive head start on everything relative to where they were at previouslydidn't happen at 250, didn't happen at 275, didn't happen at 300, won't happen at 300+ nice fantasy you made up>the grinders today will still be grinding and you'll still be a shitter in old zones "waiting for it to get easier"where are the grinders from 250/275 cap today then? i've gapped and done everything they spent 12 hours a day grinding on already>who gives a shit if you're finally lvl 295 in talahart in 5 years if there is 7 new zones above talahart and everyone else is level 330+, keep on waiting bozo cuck.lol i'll be the one thats 330+ just from doing dailies, the current grinders will all be burnt out and quitting the game from having all their progress invalidated>fragments are the most important resource in the gameso were nodestones for 5th, now you can make 12 maxed nodeskills mules in less than a year
>>550229235>lol i'll be the one thats 330+ just from doing dailiesTalahart mp will take you 1 year of doing monster park per 1 level, it's 0.3% for doing 7 runs, so good luck with that retard, if you're 290 now, all you gotta do is wait 6 months, then do your dailies everyday for 5 years and you'll be 295 lmao fucking retard>so were nodestones for 5th, now you can make 12 maxed nodeskills mules in less than a year5th job released 10 YEARS AGO RETARD LMAO, so yeah if you want to wait another 8 years for fragments to be easier go aheadAlso let me ask you something, did you ever consider that all those wappers WILL ALSO BEING DOING ALL OF THESE THINGS LMAO, your tiny pathetic little brain hasn't even comprehended that the wappers will be getting the same amount of exp from new monster park, they'll be getting the full 60% exp from symbols, they'll be running the new 280+ strawberry farm.so congrats, if you never miss your dailies in 5 years you'll be level 295 with the 6th job of someone in shangrila, just in time for the release of 7th job.
>>550229235also this is nothing new, is this your first time playing an mmo or something, new content comes out, new levels need to be grinded, old content becomes out dated, easier and irrelevant, what was once bis becomes trash, everyone already knows this, it isn't some kind of big revelation, yeah the game gets easier if you "just wait", but also you never actually hit end game if you "just wait" either.
where are these imaginary wappers who never stop wapping and never burn out? oh right u never hear of them ever again once they quit and then an average daily gamer gets to do everything better and faster than what they did and no it doesn't take 10 years, they keep making progression faster before even releasing new relevant content so no one feels left out otherwise no one would keep playingthere's no 8-10 year gaps, its more like everything done today will be done easier in 6 more months, and then even easier a year laterthere's no point in wapping because wappers aka service buyers like ereklo needed to tap 20+ pieces of eternals before seeing 22 meanwhile daily gamers get to tap to 22 on first try since the game can't afford to lose them loldoes anyone know who inmate or zerobydivide is anymore? can anyone even tell who the first 275 was without looking it up? there's already 10 other 300's and no one knows anyone besides niru and none of them are doing baldrix even lmao
wappers have like a 2-3 year lifespan before they burn out n become irrelevant and get chopped by the exp crunch cause they thought they'll be ahead forever no one from 2015 is still doing 12 hr grind days
>>550230784niru has like 99999999999999999 hexa frags and isn't even doing baldrix nigga ur just straight up wrong dawg
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5WRCSNN5yk>float>dash>tp>flash dumpthis remaster looking a little brazy bruh
>>550230991most people don't play games, especially mmos forever retard, there's a good chance in 5 years you and me won't be playing either, all this talk is irrelevant, only what you're achieving here and now matters.The thing is you are right, but you are also wrong for not seeing the bigger picture, yeh if you just wait long enough you'll be able to solo hbaldrix in 10 minutes, but at that point you've waited so long that it's now old content and no one cares anymore.Waitgang is a viable strat, IF you accept you will always be behind, and when you do finally "catchup", new content would have been released and you'll be "behind" once again, still waiting, there is absolutely nothing wrong with playing this way, and time efficient wise it is the superior play, but you will always be doing out dated content.Who gives a fuck about who wapped hard 10 years ago, there are people wapping hard today, if wappers burn out and turn into waitgang who gives a fuck, there will be other people wapping that will be pushing the new content, so they either keep up, or get replaced, it's no big deal, and it doesn't change the fact that waiters will always be somewhere around 2 years behind the curve in terms of progression.It's like in wow, a new expansion comes out, and all old gear becomes irrelevant, anyone can go into the old bosses and one shot them and get the gear, but at that point, who gives a fuck?Maple does a good job at keeping old sets relevant for longer but hey, do you wanna be the guy wearing cras and pitches killing ctene with a ror4 and your old black mage weapon or do you wanna be the guy with full eternals full brilliant set maxed 6th job killing hbaldrix with your new 25 start destiny libbed weapon?
>>550232814and your argument only makes sense if there is actually new interesting content worth pushing towards, extalia proved that right by withholding nebulites and RED content, game was still fun and not ruined by crunchs/power creep which causes mass exodus of players every time since their progress gets invalidatedso if you are not pushing the latest bossing content already and close to 300 then you already are behind as well, which is fine since 99% of the players are behind tooright now there's no point in rushing limbo or baldrix or any new bosses coming out because they only give +10 all stat +5 atk over pitchedwhy spend an xtra 3000-5000 hours over basically nothingburgers?
no one even remembers who killed hlimbo first anymore and hbaldrix clear was by people in ugly event nx all the achievements you can get in current maplestory are basically muddied by years of rwt/botting to the point no one is legit at the top anymore so no one even cares what goes on or whos a wapper or not
everyone whos not behind is either a massive p2w whale on interactive like bane or service buyers like ereklo on reboot, everyone else is behind and all the new content may as well be irrelevant, there's no invisible wappers faction outgrinding bane or rwt service booters
everyones pretty much stuck in the same hellzone weather you got max hexa 290+ rn or 285+ half hexa both are behind and never seeing any new content like Jupiter for at least 2-3 years+game is kept alive mainly by dailystories or waitgods
>>550233686why play at all, just quit completely and come back in 10 years when you can do the level 370 giganigahypersupersuperburn max+ kill all the bosses you can and then quit again for another 10 years, your doing dailies? what a waste of time
this is why osrs mogs maple btw
>>550234175im already 9.5k legion and 90% as strong as most endgame booters who played since 2015 in a bit less than 2 years, what u are implying is that it would take me another 8 years to be like 40% as strong as the current endgamers which just don't add up
>>550234238i wanna try osrs, but that game is just so fkn ugly idk how anyone does it
i think if it doesn't have a maple image i might not read itone thing all the bad posts have in common besides for not talking about the game is that they don't have maples so i will try this experiment for a bit
Statistically, true!
>>550232814>so they either keep up, or get replaced, it's no big deal, and it doesn't change the fact that waiters will always be somewhere around 2 years behind the curve in terms of progression.I went to sleep but yeah, this is essentially the main thing. All this stuff isn't putting you end game anyway, end game in mmos is fundamentally temporary and replaced by new stuff. Lucid used to be THE end game, now it's like not even early game. The end game moves up, so the mid game moves up so it doesn't take infinite time. They expect new players to fight Kaling in less than half a year now if they try and wow they can with minimal changes. That's not a mistake of poor planning or ruining the time you spent that's like the whole point of a game like this. There's no player worship because no one cares about you playing the game as intended by the devs, no one gives a flying fuck about niru or whoever the fuck anymore besides people that legitimately do not understand mmos which is a lot of people but not the actual grinders and proggers like congrats but you aren't fangblade you did this in an era with stuff in the game you actually have to do now
you guys are right, not having to read any post without an image is so much better
>>550248719>actual grinders and proggersthere is none anymore, there's only pay2win whales (bane) and reboot service buyers (ereklo)no one else is "endgame" besides these peoplethere's no group of imaginary grinders passing these people ever and they're the only ones doing endgameeveryone else is in the same tier
>>550250145you say that like the lynn grinders didn't show out and starting running shit in hbald and it's just ancient accounts with 20k hours of jose service when in reality that's a minority
>>550252396a support class that gets taxi'd there with half the cp req?
the only people who are truly behind are those who started in 2010-2015 and still haven't destiny libbed
>>550252736They weren't that far behind in hexa, actually. I know one was 103k and the rest of the party was 104k and 105k but that's pretty small. Lynn itself is a massive damage dealer it doesn't coast on hypercarry buffs it fucks by itself mind you. Again in around a year
yeah good memory, the power gap isn't actually that wide even considering lynn being 100% the best class in the game, if you've seen the destiny weapon lib min clear numbers those have way bigger gaps for example
he buyed 12 hours of service daily no one is getting into those whale/service buyer parties without getting vetted to not snitch the others out
Kain is OP but many people don't know it yet.
Kain?
the mo xuans are coming too btw and that class can actually afk farm, give them like 2 to 3 months
kain is too difficult for the bandwagoners so it won't take off
abel class when
>3 fucking vac pets in cwholy shit
i'd rather wait for the frerein ones and do a cheeky 2 dolla roll
don't pocket watch our humble mvp blacks
if we were going to get either of the anime collabs, when would that happen?
>>550268313that's a great question i'll get back to you after i consulted my magic eight ball and won the lottery
okay thanks pally.frieren was october for jms so i guess it would be april or something if it happened
bro was just asking a friendly question, no need to act like a little BITCH.
u don't know he's a paladin
bwos is it a bad idea to have my next hyper burn be a hoyoung...? im a shade mainam i gonna have to grow hands...
ugh guess i have to stop playing until they release frerein collab for vac pets
aren't the collab vac pets from a lootbox? seems sketchy
reviving 3 vacs for 6$ sounds insane compared to the 30$ for 3 regular vacs
I told someone I was training in train with no destination 6 and they called me a virgin
>>550269919https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MM9vJiCmRw4&t=26sthats the wrong idea buddy, we're all making a chadsis, the class is cracked now, it's the best mage in the game.
he sure is pressing buttons in river, impressive
no 60 second summon? not playing
female kinesis origin does do something to mebut it'd be a cw3 angle if you're playing itour upcoming hyperburn I'm using on mercedes to get that block but dunno really what I wanna play in cw3 at this pointmaybe illium, lynn, paladin aren't bad optionsho young maybe, could always play kain to make a certain thread poster flip maybe that'd be interesting
erel cw3 release will save gms, sorry generic korean teenagers back of the bus for you with sung jin woo
for cw3 i think i'll be going as cadena because shes so fr*cking coolyea if u played kain and killed black mage first before the stinky no pictures arguing with himself poster i think he'd die (he's already a puddle of radioactive waste because the bunnies killed black mage at 101m combat in 4 weeks but imagine)
me and my challenger's partner in cw3it would be funny but idk if I have the motivation to play a class for just thatI'm not against it, nova cs branch is a bit eh but maybe I can finally live my dream and play angelic busterwould get gear handy-downs from bowmaster I supposesurely they add more than 6 legion champ slots haha
>>550273705new fem kinesis is ugly
Is rentals + item burning alone enough for ctene in cw?
along with dailies/weeklies for level, symbols, and frags, yes
since ursus got go wested and is still in the game for some reason hidden behind a ui no one uses can they buff his drops so i dont have to run it so much like just make him drop 5 buff boxes worth of mats every time i solo him in 3 seconds instead of 1 mat per kill please no region has this boss still because it sucks
yeah but uh check out the new skeleton system

so like why did they just skip phantom and lumi

What's the optimal way of using RoR? I'm going to rent some gear and attempt CTene but I'm a newb and have never done them or had an Oz ring before. Should I be using the ring only when my origin is up? And would I have to make a separate equipment preset to swap to it before bursting?
It's up every two minutes. Look up how to burst for your class on Google dot com. Unless that class is ren in which case look here
>>550304584I thought the ring had a 180s CD based on the videos I watched, but if it's been reduced to 120s that makes things much simpler. Danke
>>550305286Maplestory shifted all classes to having a 2 minute burst instead of a split between 2 minute and 3 minute classes in one of the more recent patches to help make it easier to coordinate bursts with parties, so every 3 minute cooldown skill was updated to a 2 minute cooldown.
that's why you need to look at current resources brochacho but fortunately people play the game here
2nd 40% boss in cw2
>>550307074whats it like to rob the bank so hard
>>550307273something like finishing ur last boss mule of the week and getting a et(I think im in double digit drops on ET) and then logging onto cw and rolling a single senpai to unique from yesterday's 30min grind for event procs and hitting 40% bossfeels like a nasty case of account seed nglbut its like uh everybody hates u for existing, my guild is forming a hatewatching group for me, luckily I can't compare to the other guildies with multiple TC drops (just yet)
>>550286751I see thanks
>blog posting paypig thinks he has seeded accountyou just spent enough for the patented Nexon RNG to give you a bonus
posting about stuff that you are actually doing right now is higher quality than this thread is 80% of the time
excited for the exp vouchers tomorrow and 2 more heart scrolls and the um *checks notes* 50% more rune exp!!!
btw your eternal clockworks expire in less than 24 hours
wtf put them back
not sure if i wanna stock arcane boxes on the main or send them to mulesprobably the main since he's only at 18* arcanes right?i actually got one to drop after being dry for several months
>>550274485p2w passes + rentals + CW buffs is baby tier compared to solo prog bm kill you'll always be a taxi's grandis baby and not a solo prog god chad
there is literally nothing difficult about playing kain idk where people get that idea from
dont send them to mules unless they are your level 280+ cw onescw will gear your mules that you would want to use
>>550317393that pic is from months ago
benny has been reposting his pitch drops every 2-3 months right before he's about to pay2win
next week is going to be the berserked pic on donated
that's actually a good pointill save the boxes for cw graduation if i don't use it for a spare to attempt 20 or 21*not like one spare is going to push the main to a new boss or anything, and i still gotta focus on other pieces anyway
all the interactive players here are frauds basically
>gets a high value drop>makes a gainretar
have you ever noticed how your cp goes up after you starforce? curious
>>550326510>just remembered arcane boxes expireripi have redeemed the box sars
fucking wednesday patch day is still bullshit all these years laterclassic will also be going down every time nu-maple has to patch will be abyssal dogsheik sibao
did they nerf abso and arcane box drops recently?really feels like it
they drop faster than i can use them :(
>>550340768https://www.reddit.com/r/Maplestory/comments/1png7uu/statistical_analysis_of_arcane_armor_boxes/tldr: Pre box change the average for boxes was 8%, after the box change the average is 4%, so yeah inkwell is a massive piece of shit that made boxes tradeable but then also halved the drop rate. The statistics were produced by some spergs in a guild who tracked their arcane box drops on all their characters and compared their findings with another sperg that for some reason tracked every single drop they got pre box change.So yeah, all the retards who keep saying "RNG IS RNG BRO" are proven wrong, arcane box drop rates were nerfed by half.After last sunday I also suspect that the current sf rates are completely fucked and bugged as well, usually every sf you hear about some lucker dogs, I don't know a single lucker from this event, literally everyone was complaining that all their shit boomed, do not sf off event anymore because you will boom all your shit
i think its just a knee-jerk reaction to the new sf system, peoples first was SSF, this is basically standard nowi did sf off event before the SSF to see how it is and never went past 19 in 5 spares so i knew what was coming but yea inkwell is evil for putting them sunny sundays all out like thatwe still got a second SSF this month if they're not totally gay
who r u talking to 56
what the FUCK is that disgusting 4chan theme
>>550349843my schizo theory is that the new sf system is designed specifically to boom as much shit off event as possible on purpose to protect the whales "investments" by basically destroying the spare markets anytime someone over in kms decides they randomly want to try sf items off event.Seriously makes 0 fucking sense to not have a flat boomrate and instead have a sunny sunday where you actually get the real rates back, scum as fuck

>improvements>it's a nerfhuh?
at least I'll get one guaranteed eternal clockwork from the new event...
its mnyot a nyerf you just couldnt do that before
it's insane that nexon thinks 8 extra weekly points from extreme lotus warrants a 1750 to 2300 and 2500 point increase for eternal and brilliant setthis system is already pretty dire the way it is now and nexon nerfs it even furtherbtw nexon, are u aware that amount of people that can solo xseren/xbm in reboot is so fucking minimal it might as well be <20 playersalso where's any mention of pitch rewards from mystic frontier? is the line "account progression items" supposed to be the pitch or did they purposefully keep it vague here?this company many never stops giving us Ls()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()

>>550427482I'm guessing inkwells pathetic logic was "they can restore their arcanes with star specks now so we gotta nerf the arcane boxes to compensate"
good things will never happen

so we just got grinding oz rings or something
oh and boot didn't get the eternal piece distribution change thingy I guess
soloing ckal and getting half an eternal sounds really nicesweaty but for 2b every week we might make it workeven if i keep duoing thats 2.5 pieces/week which is an improvement
ill solo ckal on my 5 legion champs and get 10 eternals per week

they never said they were only going to do it once
it was still heavily implied it'll be a one time thing during cw only (it wasn't)
is the implication in the room with us rn
I've been attempting Hard Darknell for 2 hours, and the lowest I've gotten him is 35%. Judging by my damage i'd need around 20 minutes to kill him. The fuck even is this boss? It's just a clusterfuck of shit all over my screen, is this the boss design philosophy these gooks are going to be using on bosses past Niggernell? I might settle for normal at this point, but it feels wasteful since I bought the rental gear.
zro does not know prenvrf dvrknvll...
Is anyone using the macOS client? How is it running? Picking up a laptop for classic/doom scrolling and an m5 mbp is at the top of my list.
dorknell looks a lot scarier than he actually is, try to keep him in the middle of the screen so you can get behind him when he starts attacking and dodge faster elite boss sloppa
>>550453848keep the boss in the middle, retards get baited into hiding in corners when they get scared which makes dodging boss patterns harder, and whenever darknell does an animation, jump away from him because that when the minions spawns
hope the mythic frontier rates for a pitched arent too bad. I thought it was gonna be a selector but since it’s random, I’m praying it’s at least 3-4 pitched a year without needing to spend money
stinkwell the liar already removed any mention of pitched in the patch notesthis whole patch is an actual nothingburger to be skipped
The current pitched pity doesn't even solve the spares problem, we basically got +1 pitched per year instead of nothing, system is still super ass with 0 chance of ever attempting a 25* on GMS
Can Nexon just announce Mabinogi Mobile Global already so I can stop playing Inkwells game
>this patch will be such a nothinburger that maint will finish up like 3-4 hours before the given time
This is the third time you guys are rolling out Ride or Die, and ever since it was introduced the entire community has spoken against it. We hoped it might improve after the first iteration, and while there were minuscule changes, every time it returns it’s still an awful, buggy mess that most players would rather skip than participate in. The worst part is that there’s real potential here - I remember being genuinely hyped when RoD was first announced because it sounded like fun, meaningful content. This year, me and my friends who watched MapleCon together were literally crossing our fingers not to hear this announced again.This is GMS-exclusive content, so why is it some of the worst content we’ve received? You’re effectively putting your name on something that is universally disliked by your own players.The rewards make this even worse. After the last iteration, players were very clear about the potable badge issue - not just because it was temporary, but because badges are a core progression slot and some players still have legacy potable badges that are stronger than the supposed endgame Genesis Badge. Instead of addressing this imbalance or even acknowledging the feedback, you chose to simply remove the Ride or Die badge entirely this time and say nothing. Ignoring the problem doesn’t fix it; it just leaves a broken progression system in place while pretending it doesn’t exist.
p2w pitches in a rng senpai system, yeh i think im done with this dogshit ass game and company
why does this game need 8 fucking hours of maintenance?
>booters are crying over p2w againpay up those servers aren't going to maintain themselves
>>550468876the servers arnt going to maintain themselves when maples back to being a dead game either
uh mabinogi said they are getting rid of pay2win because that is better for the game, why can't maplestory just do that?
>>550471138you can take the gook out of korea, but you cant take korea out of the gook
>tfw everything from 2023-2025 is invalidated by two (2) genysis passes (60$)
so called waitchads realizing what being multiple tiers behind means
it means you didnt ruin your enjoyment of the game like a cuck
the bus wasn't from your position to current end game it was from literally nothing to your current position
its just more content for later rather than having it on repeat now

>>550453848Darknell isn't even hard anymore after they removed random meteors. All you need to know is that the eboss spawn directions depend on where he is facing when he attacks. You can literally move backwards after every attack and never get hit.
also it's really lame that they removed PP just because current kms devs are too stupid to balance a resource gauge

>they brought inferno wolf back but as an alienholy kino....
>>550513894is it worth playing is a better question I guess. the game seems overwhelming as fuck lol
>>550515709visually it's all overblown for the most part, if you don't like looking at pretty particle effects they can all just be turned off and you can enable outlines and stuff. in terms of progression mechanics all the horizontal stuff ends up being a variation of either you get something for grinding or level another character for a bonus which ends up being easy the further into the game you get. bosses have mostly turned away from just lazily flooding the screen with random bullshit and are now just kinda normal mechanics that are actually fun
can we please delete the bronze coins and instantly redeem the rest upon pickup for the next ride or die event pleasehalf the reason I stopped running this shit is the inventory management every week
>failed llama shitter 2>3 10 times in a rowFuck it. I'm just claiming my one (1) fragment and being done with it.
>>550504334>>550505940seems legit
so with ascent ride or slop is free?
BH drops are enabled this patch still
oh right too busy thinking about familiar dnd to acknowledge ascent skillshad enough sol erda in the inventory to instantly hit level 10, does about 27% to cgloom with all 3 useslooking forward to maxing it out
27?????????????%ayo we cooking
it's gloom who cares
...did they nerf the fucking octo event?
waiters won big with ascend
I love inventory clogging!
I don't know but the gms version of octo was easier than korea's so maybe they went back to defaults
>>550513635challengers server does force you into understanding the gamewell the current event is by far the best time for getting into the game with massive newbie powercreepits a 2 decade old mmo with nonstop vertically progressing contents so will be overwhelming at first even with all the in game new newbie guide contents
how come no one is complaining about this dudebro does NOT look like a boss, especially a boss supposedly stronger than the monstrous looking ones we've been gettinghe should've been a new class and he woulda been my TRUE main
I don't have a picture of Will saved on my phone but imagine I posted it and said this was the hardest boss like a decade ago and kaling was the hardest boss until he came out, seren before thathe's going to turn into something anyway
lotus does look like a bossdamien does look like a bosslucid does look like a bosswill does look like a bosshilla does look like a bossseren does look like a bosskaling does look like a bossros does look like a bosskai doesnt look like a boss but hes only a mid tier and he looks like an anime recurring rival character so he gets a passgreen ark with extra kpopmaxxing does NOT look like a boss, especially an endgame boss at that
so what stage of the alpaca thing is it better to stop at?
how are you going to say kai doesn't look like a boss and then have your explanation as to why just say "yeah they look like a recurring boss fight", didn't even make it through the whole list bruh
effects that r always active seems to be the play
tempting to get a few points into ascent, but im also like 3 levels away from 20janusam i also crazy for wanting to rush 30janus right after even if none of my nodes are over 20

>i was so excited i forgot the picture!!!
Looking at these rewards, I can't tell if its worth doing or not.
the crystal coupon was for 2x so if you can get pitched ones I guess it's not badlv4 exp ring is 200% exp but costs something like 600 senpai points every 2 minutesmight be cute to stack with rune event
fuck do you mean worth bro you press a button and free stuff comes out later you say that as though there's opportunity cost
>>550000205bwo?? your patch notes???

*starts farting and pooping rather loudly*what.the fuck.
twenteena is molesting my use inventory with these unstackable exp coupons and nodestones i thought we were over this
i have three types of small exp accumulation potions and none of them stack but they're all permanent. this game is so fucking bloated bwos *wilted_heart, broken_skull emoji*

send this maplenigga to the guillotine
this is a really good patch idk why people were knee jerkin
anyone made a mystic famamalama guide yet
it's because i thought i would get free 30* pitched items

we're doing it bros we're going west it's happening
here's ride or die 50, u rike?
ok /msg/ listen up, stinkwell fucked up the twenteena boxes, its supposed to be 10 entries per world, but its 10 per character so u can get fuckin tons of them and they shit out exp tickets and sol frags so get it while u can. I've just been rotating between characters killing about 1k mobs getting a portal spawn and moving onto the next mule
*enters one portal a day*
*enters portal and fucks up threads of fate Ask*
*reports *I hate u**
>>550642650i didnt have any portals spawn 2k kills in on my mule
>>550648454the first portal spawn of the day only takes about 1k kills, after that if you rotate back to that mule its around 15min to get each portal so its better to just rotate it on fresh mules, im not gona hyper autistic and try to actually cap multiple characters just 20 boxes a day is enough for me it prob gona get patched soon anyway
let me in or im calling ice
got 2600 tickets yesterday just doing one char, was nice
can you still double dip rod in both your cw ren's ass and your main's ass?
do i have to complete all the bosses for ride or die to get the legion block?
>>550658701yea
>>550660609I think the minimum participation is just entering and leaving a bossyou can already attempt/claim the first week's reward to prove ityou must do so on a non-challenger world for the block
can verify that's how it worked last time, just entering is enough for participation
is there even any grandis area with aquatic type monsters
mermanima class+region soon, trust the plan
im using bellalion for my aquatic ran down commons for it, honestly not bad setup for double dipping cw
yea it works
I feel like rod3 was originally going to feature those new characters from the patch preview but they ran out of time and just pushed rod2 again
when will they make rod enjoyable(this is a joke because content is made to waste players' time not be fun)
RoD is a complete nothingburger this time around, not even a recurring badge. No badge rental still. No new bosses even. I thought Lim wasn't a total fraud but it seems like he outdid himself with giving Magnus one extra fake out attack in RoD 2 and decided to say he's done fuck it.
they're going on their christmas vacation you expect them to work????
just hit 280are all the arteria maps supposed to be shit and require 3 janus orbs for full coverage

arteria with janus 10 and no vac pet separates the men from the boys
You mean it separates the third worlders from actual people.
you mean it separates the paypigs from normal people

Alright, since no one can report in on the macOS beta I'll download it on my work laptop.
>>550693456Not sure why I'm so surprised, but it runs fine. Jumping around and spamming bite in arteria, everything is nice and smooth. I'll go and see how it handles nw burst in darknell when I wake up.

Im curious, is there any particular reason why nexon shifted newer/endgame bosses to be 3 man party bosses? Honestly on that note why did they do away with the multi-party boss raids?
a. changslop explicitly stated he hates the mmo part and wants the game to be solo basedb. probably something something balancing crystal prices and rewards for kmsi hate it so much but no one on kms seems to complain about it so will be a permanent feature
>>550810657easier to schedule 3 ppl and harder to carry shitters in 3man, 6 mans always end up splitting into parties of 3 or 2 once they can clear the boss easier anyway

if you want to sweat frontier system you would want a wide variety of elements/types and all of them to have their corresponding "if you have x element on your squad +y to dice total/dice total minus y and increase final multiplier"everything else is based on random chance for not nearly as good of a payoffbased on the datamined lines it seems like there's 7 elements and 9 types so that would be 63 familiars to cover everything (assuming there is a familiar for every possible combination), trying to have a squad of 3 for every single type is impossible without dumping a metric shit ton on familiar expansion slots but it's still unknown how much of an impact matching the element and type do to the potential rewards

[GOOD NEWS] Maplestory's PC Cafe Event is a Historical Success
22 year old pixel game still going strong......
the world ifif there was no daily cap on twenteena portals
>>550847976the shit part is, if you look at grandis, most of the mobs are the same type, its all beasts and humans, to get a perfect squad you'd have to go back and farm maps that will give you no meso, exp and low mob count, they need to add the ability to fuse senpaitachi with any card type not the exact monster card type.Should probably just try get a few element combos and call it there
imagine the
>ascent damage is backloadedHUUUUH? holy fuckng shitballs i gotta grab frags
>>550861164that is definitely something to consider, it's a lot of work to try and get good familiars especially when the type and element of familiars didn't matter until now so no one has documented where each of the combos can be farmedafter doing a legendary expedition i can say that epic familiars are fine as long as your potentials are relevant and you match the expedition requirementsthis expedition asked for holy/devils, going in with 3 devils gave me a free +15 to die rolls, combined with the default 3x multiplier i had from potentials the only roll i failed was the last (197, rolled 192) due to rolling odd on the last die and not proccing the luck based multiplieri was not offered the chance to get a bag above purple, next time i get a legendary expedition i want to try matching the element to see if there's any difference or if it just affects the bonus skill at the startas far as ap goes level 5 on each familiar is important so you don't risk burning out on round 3, if you swipe for breakthroughs a full team of level 7 familiars shouldn't need to ever heal (this also means needing unique familiars which is much more time consuming/expensive especially since there's no way to reroll frontier potentials at the moment)
Are all the new ascent skills 3 clicks or is it just ren
most in fact are one clicklens is uniquely sweaty
So basically mystic frontier is a ploy to force people into doing monster collector.When are they going to ramp up the quest completer pipeline.
>>550865019If by ploy you mean making it actually useful, sure. There was never a good reason to interact with monster collector outside of achievement hunting since the rewards were trash.
>>550865019it's also a ploy to make people really consider (paying for) expanding their senpai slots as much as possible since you will want to keep so many senpaitachi now to the point that fusing with only 100 slots will become unbearable, and buying breakthroughs for good senpai rolls, and ofc the expedition re-rolls, basically monetized the fuck out of the senpai system
I'm just going to use my big brain and not waste time minmaxing shit I don't need to
what the fuck happened to my maplescouter
>>550810657because party buffs are gay and made the game functionally impossible to balance unless you add a bunch of party size specific stuff, plus there's no true party mechanics anyway besides shared gaugesall that really changes for you is increased personal responsibility for damage

I'll have one wooden cube to go please
...huh? wrong icon?

oh mystic frontier orange reward bag, i feel so lost these days>THREE KARMA BRIGHT CUBES TWO KARMA SOLIDS ONE RORO'S FAMILIAR PACKthank you mystic frontier orange reward bag, at least i have you here
well this content still blows but at least its not any tankier, and I sure as fuck have been making gainsall x-15 dead in ascents + burst, cw is the real fun runs I'll be doing x-1 there
>thought i fucked up my threads of fate>didn'taw yeah let's keep sneeding
ok so for common skills we have>mobbing skill that when maxed out covers basically the entire map>bossing skill that when maxed out has a partial bind, a revive, and boosts your 2min burstwhat are 3 and 4
am i doing something wrong threads of fate isnt giving me seed missions anymore i only got two people unlocked but i thought there was way to reroll asks?>
>>550895586can someone pls answer tyhis
So uh... classic wen?

i tried doing x-5 on cw and got humbled by the knockback mob
>when the challenge is boss healing
>>550895586the first ask you do daily resets the type of ask it is so you need two guys who are askableand every day when you want to farm seed oil you need to ask the designated fall guy first to tank the change, and then relog so you arent asking anymore and then you can ask your seed oil finder to go look for plantsthe reroll is only once a day you just gotta do it until you get it and then not fumble the plants ask
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwB1R7HR9qs>If you have at least 1 familiar that matches the recommended element or type in your expedition team, you'll receive an expedition potential that matches the rank of your familiar's potentialOkay so it seems like the familiar type and element does not matter for rewards, only the starting bonus skillThis means the best strat is to get 9 legendary/unique familiars for each element with a good skill and the rest of the team can be filler that has decent base die and mult
>>550903670>only the starting bonus skillyou mean like, you start with a free dice?thats major that makes runs good
oh my gosh a fraggie!!! hello fraggie hiiiii
it's okay anoni'd feel the slap to the face too
>>550905648Yes, I'm not saying it isn't major what I'm saying is that there is no point to matching the element or type past the first familiar.For example if the expedition requires fire/undead, you can run something like this>fire/human unique>water/aquatic>holy/machineAnd you'll still get the same bonus skill that you would have gotten if you ran 3 fire/human unique familiars. I mistook the number of types for elements so you only need 7 high tier familiars for each element to maximize your expeditions, not 9.
no i actually really like sol erda fragments!!! now that i have one i only need *checks calculator* 40000 more before i can begin *phone rings* hang on>what?>>*animal crossing speaking noise*>theres a new skill?>*more animal crossing chatter*>that costs as many frags as origin but only gives half the damage?>>*short animal crossing chatter*>darn, okay, thank you45000 more fragments to participate in modern bosses!!
thats a grown ass man talking like that.
>come inside a general that's just discord now>complain about tranniesmaybe ur the one that doesnt belong here
ive always been here
wait are we still having complaints on ascent damage?it's free damage and iframes
ok but real talk why are fraggies so fucking rare when normal sol erda drops like candy and is handed out for free all the time?
>>550911785botter economy botter game
why'd she do it?
grindstory
>>550911785Sweet summer child, if only you know of the old droplet system for arcanes. Even before the current one. Getting 20 frags an hour pretty consistently is not even close to rare, 10-15 with lower drop.
aiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeee
>passpiggydeserved
How to complete a greater power?Requires Arcane force to give me arcane force for killing 1 happy Erda. the problem is that as soon as I enter the map, a lamp spawns that follows me and inevitably one-shots me as soon as it touches. How am I supposed to do this quest?My gear is the event +15 RA set on my Bishop
use your 5th job skills
>>550942673buff up like you are about to buff for a boss (including door)teleport in map (most likely will lose door if you lag)hold right arrow for alittle bit and then teleport left. then try killing the mob via teleporting left and rightthough I am a bit surprised magic gaurd doesn't save you
Does Thunder Breaker still break your fingers
>>550932528>20 frags an hour pretty consistentlyI think I got 3 in half an hour...
*gives u a fraggie*
*also gives a fraggie to that anon*
>>550778726completed tera blink, am level 200. next main quest is a greater power.aside from spamming quests, what else can I do now? wouldn't mind running bosses or something. it doesn't really give you anything once you leave the hat from the event other than to talk tot he time keeper. when does the game "unlock"? so to speak
>burst in rod>get stunned back to back by two different special effects that aren't affected by bindwhat was inkwell thinking when he designed this?
bwo... your genesis iframe?
nyo...
>>550967935I didn't buy the goypass in cw so I'm not libbed
>>550966039>completed tera blink, am level 200. next main quest is a greater power.>aside from spamming quests, what else can I do now?if you've never done the symbol quests on any character you've gotta do those and they're not optionalit'll hold your hand through most of it but you're gonna want to do those, get levels and make it to 260
>>550966039There's a boss menu in the maple guide(keybind to F1 by default) that you can use to access bosses. They drop crystals you can sell for meso as well as some equipment that can be useful. Other than that you're probably going to be leveling by doing dailies, mainly arcane river quests and monster park(you can buy extra entry tickets in the cash shop for meso if you're on reboot/heroic). You can grind as well if you have a bunch of bonus exp coupons and other similar boosts.
>>550973963What are these exactly? It wasn’t shown at all I think.>>550976839Thank you. I’ll run some bosses when I’m home and see what happens, I have a feeling because of the Tera event I might be over levelled or geared whatever and fly through some of them.Might be another dumb question here, but what are most people doing when they log on? Dailies? Boss runs? What’s the end goal?For example in something like OSRS you pick your goal, going for a cape, completing a raid, PvP etc. what’s the MapleStory equivalent if any? And are there requirements?
>>550977334>What are these exactly? It wasn’t shown at all I think.open your maple guidethe questline starts after you finish a greater power, some NPC in vanishing journey should have a quest for you
>>550977334Be wary of the guy posting Ren/Lara pictures. He's something of a village idiot around these parts.>Might be another dumb question here, but what are most people doing when they log on? Dailies? Boss runs? What’s the end goal?Daily stuff is monster park and then symbol quests until you've maxed those out. In the early game you might also run ursus for meso and arkarium for a dominator pendant, as well as gollux for its drops when you're closer to 260.Along with that you want to be doing weeklies, mainly whatever bosses you can kill for equipment and boss crystals to sell. There are also arcane river weeklies which give extra symbols if you can stomach the minigames, and then at 260+ an erda weekly, epic dungeons and monster park extreme. If you want you can grind on top of that but dailystory is enough to carry you to 280 at least.Beyond the dailies and weeklies you should try to do some quick event stuff, mainly simple check-ins, killing x number of mobs and other quick tasks that very depending on what events are currently going on for pretty good rewards. Events usually also give out rewards that make it easy to power-level other characters to level 200-210 to gain access to their link skills and to boost your legion to benefit your main. Don't bother investing any time on mules outside of events.What you're looking for is getting more damage and levels to progress. The basic loop is: reach a level milestone (a multiple of 5) to access new main story area -> get a new symbol and daily quest -> do dailies and weeklies for exp, symbols, boss drops and meso -> grind however much you feel like for more exp and to get some job related drops(nodestones for 5th job and erda for 6th job) -> use meso to upgrade gear and other resources to upgrade skills -> kill stronger bosses that drop new better gear.Might be helpful to look up a progression guide on youtube. Also join a guild so that you can ask them for help and later on join bossing parties.
>he doesn't know it's more than one person>>550977334>What’s the end goal?for most people the end goal is just clearing the next boss, and they're grinding to get resources (symbols, erda fragments, boss drops, meso, monster cards, exp) they can use to power up and get to the next boss. that's all people are really doing for the most part there aren't a lot of goals in this game
>>550977334lvl 200 isnt a stopping point it's barely even a starting point, the bosses you will be doing at that level are mostly old irrelevant 20 year old bosses, you want to get to level 260.At your level you mostly do 2 things for fast gains, 7x monster park runs per day, and arcane river dailies for symbols (these symbols are stronger than any gear, everytime you upgrade them your character gets alot of stats).The end goal is to get the hell out of arcane river and get to 260 so you can unlock 6th job and start doing more recent content, click the star tab on the left side of the screen, that is where the current game events are, get acquainted with everything in it because it's all free shit that will supercharge your progress and get you to 260 alot faster, in the "waking the power of time" there is a shop with an item called strawberry farm tickets, buy these and you will level up very fast, the tickets replenish weekly and you can buy 5 per week.It all looks complicated with alot of stuff, but again keep it very simple and just do those three things, monster park, arcane river symbol dailies, and become as familiar as possible with everything in the star tab.The end game is grinding, grinding, more grinding, some solo bossing, some party bossing, and alot of gambling.
>>550977334It's a pretty dense game all things considered. But most options for growth are just that: Options.Pic related is a pretty important for you. You click the star icon to the left, and it's there in the menu. It basically gives you a set of armor that will grow stronger the more bosses you kill. Opening the [Item Burning] menu after you got the gear shows you which bosses you've got to kill for the gear to grow stronger. Also, the event [Challenger: Challenger World] serves as a decent objective list for making progress. Make number go big from reaching level milestones and clearing bosses.
not tiering up a familiar feels bad already but when are they adding a button to skip the animation where the GMS director puts a screwdriver in my ass every time i miss the 80/40%
>do bm>break box, item glow for a rare item>jade ring box>ultimatum ring:(
ah yes my favorite beast, Orchid
>>550993624YOU MUST WATCH THE 3 SECOND ANIMATION OF YOUR FAMILIAR notBOOMING
I hate this fucking game I swear they scientifically design everything to make you as miserable as possible
>>550993714>not dark element, despite literally being a spirit of darkness given fleshy formThere's a lot of None-element monsters that should probably be Dark. Crushing Glare is a spawn of the manifestation of the Black Mage's negativity, but it's None-element.No insect-typing means Will's spiders are reptiles (Icon depicted as a snake, a creature antithetical to concept of a spider).Those Despairing Souls from Lab, are apparently Beasts, and not Undead. Blue and Red Shadows are also beasts??? Beast as a type is bloated as-is, because there's no bird type.flavor fails everywhere.
>epic eyepatch>goes to unique with 2 hard cubes>then to legendary with 1 bright cube>then rolls 36% stat with 3 glowing cubesnoicealso is it just me or does the game glitch out after cubing?
>>550995332yeah, it will like, stop letting you push buttons. going to char select fixes it
why do regtards STILL cling onto meso cubes and think its a good idea lmaoif they actually get it they will just cry even more because they now they have to spend 700m per bpot rollreggers get 20 improvements from both kms and gms while heroics barely get jack shit lol
uh oh the booter is mad the most recent patch isn't giving him infinite pitched minutes after it droppedin my personal opinion with mystic frontier the cubing problem in reg has been mostly alleviated, i got 8 bonus brights this week which for some events in the past would be about a third of the cubes you could get for several monthsstill have not seen a regular bright cube from it, if it drops on reg that's neat and if not the meso market has always existed, star speck boxes add another way to dump items for mesos if you don't need the item itself though buying an item with a good main pot is still probably the cheapest methodwish the patch notes showed more of the possible rewards aside from focusing on pitched and the new skill rings, would be nice to know what's possible and perhaps people wouldn't be so rabid about it if it didn't seem like pitched items were the main reward
ok post if u genuinely think meso cubes will be a good idea or not
I do.
ain't gonna be the price of kms cubes for sureanyhoo here's the datamined list of rewards from mystic frontier for ur perusalhttps://pastebin.com/kRbUSbt9it can give up to 10 bonus brights or 10 bright cubes
