It's not even the fun schizo rambling. I wish. I had a next door neighbor back when i still was with my folks, and those yelling sessions were just incoherent babbling. Very funny.This one is some neet roast who screams about women problems. Constantly getting cops involved because she threatened suicide several times over the year for attention. I could go on.Feel so bad for the mom and dad who has to put up with it. They always look so tired.
chat is this real?it's been going at it for a while now
when you're out of daily/weekly boss crystals the only thing left worth doing is gollux because the grind never ends?
When is that cash shop transfer?

How do you get that absolab gear?
>>5684114841: You need to be able to beat Hard Lotus or Hard Damien to get the <Component A> to make coins, which can be used to buy AbsoLab Gear.2: Then, you also need to do Haven, and Dark World Tree weeklies, which are like, killing mobs and collecting etc items, which will give you <Component B>.You trade A & B together at an NPC, and get a coin. I think it's something like, 20 B, 1 A? I forget what they're called, go my vague letters.After weeks of ts (this shit) you will then exchange these coins for one (1) piece of absolab gear!!HOWEVER!!, Hard Damien and Lotus drop Absolab Weapon/Armor boxes that can just have a whole-ass absolab gear piece in them (You choose the armor, and weapon will be w/e your class uses) and also they can be transferred to gear out your alts. You might just luck out
>>568412089>Hard Damien and LotusThanks anon. I knew there were some dailies but I wasn't sure what bosses dropped them and most stuff on google is horribly out of date. Sadly none of my characters are even close to being able to do even the lowest tier of lotus.
>>568412731nvm you can get them from normal lotus/damienthis was like, 10m cp, on an alt with only mastery nodes unlocked (as far as hexa goes), and the run was 2 minutes lmaoyeah, it's 20 weekly etcs + 1 boss etc = 1 coin
>>568413587The boss etc stones seem to drop @ 1 - 3It takes 5 coins to get an absolab weaponIt takes 2 coins to get an absolab armor pieceHowever, you're bottle-necked by only getting 20 weekly coins, per titular week - it's 3 coins for EACH of the 5 missions, and then an additional 5 coins for completing all five missions (3+3+3+3+3+5 = 20!).Haven weeklies are fucking DOGSHIT, and these retarded-ass maps will literally have mob spawns EXHAUST, and you'll need to either leave the room, or cc. it's baffling.however! weekly stones drop from mobs in their respective areas so uh................. you can actually farm there if you want? (this is extremely inefficient)
>removed all cosmetics from characters I don't play anymore>no longer feel the need to play test "just in case" becasue they don't look as cuteIt was that simple all along.
i'd advise joining a box only carry run in the party finder, but you'll need to do some damage to be eligible for dropsor join a struggle run, which requires more damageabso boxes are instanced, not shared
*hides a bunch of sol erda fragments in my ass*
maples who dig in they ass
i had a nightmare and got woke and immediately started twaining and nyow im about to finish hour #4
I still dunno what to play for cw
its just erel hes getting released at the same time as it like ren world its a free space
earl light
I just wanna grind but life sucks
browsing jp maple twitter while i twaini hope we get this event
if u double click a spell trace it opens the spell tracing ui so i think double clicking a sol erda fragment should open the hexa matrix
i dont wanna twain without haste event
im twaining anyway for meso i want to fund a 5l mitras so that i can hand me down my current one to an alt when patch hits and i want a dreamy belt exceptional and i want to 23 my daybreak and fraggies r still a little high so the getting is good rn
So people playing DPM classes are just fucked with the ring changes or do they still gain fd?
everyone gains fd unless u dont have a cont4 in which case lol lmaothey just move 10% att from ur ror to ur cont and let u keep the %boss from cont and its on always forever i dont think new cont has a 4s downtime anymore so u just go up like 40ish boss
isn't it only like 2% attack and 30% boss now instead of 10% att 160% boss?
didnt mention anything about the %att going down for cont
doesn't bursting on DPM classes with ror still feel like ass though even with these changes? like if your kit is 50% burst 50% DPM like cadena/blaster/zero/lumi...these changes suck
no they dont!!! you literally just get to keep 10% of your ror's att and 40 boss on all the time!!! for free!!!! the cont works during ror!!!! the changes didnt make ur class worse!!!!!
but these changes favor burst classes heavily, like why even DPM class at this point when you're forced into using ror and everyone gets cont
>>568435941do your ride or die 5, gaijin
>>568445054It is a gain for everyone but burst and mixed classes got marginally moreCont itself was decisively nerfed so strict dpm classes do less off burst
its a major gain because i will not miss ring swapping but if ur gods strongest 60s soldier then idk how much 10% att 40% boss forever matches against 10s of however much wj4 does
>>568447460I was toying with the idea of making a non-meta DPM class now that I know all of the boss mechanics and would enjoy a more active playstyle in bossing. But now starting something like Lumi or demon avenger seems like a wasted effort. Learning all the mechanics is actually being invalidated in place of lil timmys just doing burst and hide on 90% boss/%10 dpm kits
>>568447935I'm glad I somehow had the foresight to not start on a DPM class. Most of them have a bunch of 5-15 sec skills you need to constantly keep pressing when cont pops. Losing 120% boss damage on that is going to suck ass. The current fun of dpm class bossing is fitting in more uptime and getting more free damage out the ass because you know mechanics and know positions for free damage but all of that is getting gutted with these ring changes. Changseop saw whales complaining that others are clearing HLimbo/Baldrix through effort and was like nope let me cut this niggas boss damage by 120% and force them to find more DPM windows that puts them in danger by making it last 30 sec instead of knowing where to go and using all the skills during the 8 sec window.
never @ me again literally NO ONE uses cont anymore
hseren is impossible
i still use cont you get more out of it with higher uptime everywhere besides slime, makes multi-phase bosses easier if you can sub 2min each phase
>>568454937i just burst and fuck off i dont even attempt to dpm takes me a little longer but its something i must do because im skill-less
>>568457102That's why Im not even going to bother making a Kanna or Hayato, that's their playstyle now regardless if you are skilled or not.
>>568457921that's every burst classes playstyle in this game, how new are you?
>>568458075u look gay
>>568453030>I'm glad I somehow had the foresight to not start on a DPM classIs playing a DPM class that bad? Everyone seems to be shitting on DPM classes now and just saying to play burst. I plan to make a Zero for CW3 but literally everyone, including the discord said that it's not advised despite in the very next breath saying "just play what you want".
there are none dpm classes left after the 2 minute update please ignore that post
Dark knight uses cont and TB uses cont still. I think lumi is also cont? This is even with the 2min changes.I know TB burst is like a solid 40-50 seconds or so long.
>>568461873Yeah they take longer to come online than burst classes but start to excel at extremely high CP ranges like 1bil+. Classes like DB, Zero, DA, F/P all are very weak early game and get shit on in hluwill/ctene until they lib.>>568460010>>568463471Wow so this is the peak of discussion a level 295 marksman can provide, amazing. Just stay quiet you dumbfuck zoomoid.
>>568464435>1bil+I seriously doubt anyone on heroic has 1bil CP on any character
>>568464548What that translates to is DpM classes are better suited as mains rather than boss mules.
im gonna finish hours #7 and 8 of todays twaining and then im gonna take a nyap
Kaling a shit.
anon had to wait until She was asleep to say this
She'll see it when she wakes up.
Kaling falling asleep while watching a movie together then farting herself awake and getting mad at you thinking you did something
284 on bishy before crown pretty sure, epic dungeon gives 7T a weekisn't wind archer still able to use cont as wellthe ring changes are a small fd gain like 3-4 fd assuming ror4&cont4 for everybodycont is active 100% of the time, and you ror on burst, the loss is like 4% attack on burst and a gain of 100% uptime 40% boss I think it is? not certain on the values but in those ballparksthe biggest losers are the classes with strong minibursts that were using ror already, for example dual bladeeither way no ring swapping is a W and the gains are better for higher ring levels lv5/lv6by the way evan is the worst class in the game currently, low damage, but also complicated to do the low damage
the ring changes are actually more like 2-6 fd depending on your burst distribution. giga bursty classes with no off-burst dpm and completely uniform dpm classes are both on the lower end, but anything in between can see okay to really good fd gains from it
>bored>looking at bosses I can maybe clear on my zero>haven't cleared Cygnus>clear her on easy (I'll do normal after reset)>try chaos zakum>cleared easily>decide to try hard magnus>cleared after a few tries and realizing I may actually have to pause my rotation to not eat everything to the faceI may try CRA after I get a bit more CP (1.3mil). I've also been completely neglecting the legion artifact stuff and didn't realize you can level it up for a bunch of stat boosts.
how much cp do you need to clear dojo
About tree fiddy.
KMS sounds so much better than whatever we got.
i wish they would kill all non kms versions of the game and shove us all into a containment server on kms. dealing with lag, chinks and seaniggers would be worth it
>>568491418DPM classes get 1-2fd, mixed classes get 2-3fd, burst classes get 9-10fd shit is chopped, on gang
I wonder if this means they might balance the current dpm classes to be more burst centric down the line. Seemingly thats the direction theyre taking things.
that guy is just drunk. mixed classes with <20s burst benefit the most from the new cont + ror change since the burst difference needs to offset the weaker cont values. burst classes deal with a weaker ror, and fully dpm classes will deal with the worse cont. mages just get fucked in the ass in general because you straight up lose like 1.5% fd just from the wep jump loss
imagine not being a hayato with a lynn gf
weh
>>568499612ror isn't weaker when you account the perm cont effect stacking with itonly cont got fucked
>>568505515>perm cont effectat level 6...
maplers and dooming about changes they don't understand name a more common duodid you really think it doesn't get the perm effect until lv 6 are you retarded
>>568484449>>568484707>>568484905>>568487603good morni-
mx is kinda based actually cw3 finna be lit
doing my last minute bosses and got a black heart for the first time in a long ass while
imagine
weekly i fucking hate will post
I stopped imagining anything about green pouches because I ran 10 orange and 5 green expeditions and still only had 2 attempts at green pouches, one of which gave me a very cool 3 expedition timer reductions instead of useful dice modifiers.
What's the SSF thing coming up on the 30th? I assume something to do with starforcing, should I wait for that to upgrade some gear?
I just cleared normal lotus for the first time bros with 1 life left
>>568516206As a new player you probably don't have enough spares to utilize it to the fullest. It reduces the gear boom rate by 30% and makes upgrading marginally cheaper. I think it's a good opportunity to get some shit to 17* without needing to safeguard. Though hitting that unlucky 1% still happens more often than you think.I wouldn't worry too much since they are changing it soon to happen once every other week instead of a few times a year.
Did something happen why is Evan the only one not voice acted even Mir has voice acting.
Mir is important and precious but Evan is a dirty and stinky farmer.
farmers are based thoughthey bring you foodor if they really like you, a wheel of cheese
>bitch about getting a pitch on a mule a week ago and a dupe pitch a week before that>unique pitch drops on the main even after anon cursed me and two lucky weeksBros, i'm blessed. This puts me at 4 set, though it'll still be a long time before i replace gollux.
how come some bosses are hard, and some are chaos
What's the deal with this cloak, why's it so expensive at this low level?
25bil grindstone from hlimbo
>>568521382was a new system they were trying out like a decade ago
>>568521289I'm not sure if there's a deeper nuance, but it really seems like 'Chaos' difficulty bosses are just rando monsters of sufficient strength, where as 'Hard' difficulty bosses have some association with a greater strength, like the Black Mage's Commanders, or Gerand Darmoor's Apostles.
>>568507302If you need help understanding it then it's basically ex 1min cont classes that got turned into 2min are going to be the worst off with the ring changes since their burst never became strong 3min classes that were condensed into 2min are the ones who get the biggest boost from the ring changes since they will benefit from both ror and cont now
The test server starts next week doesn't it? Then we should have an idea of how Erel light plays? If he's stupid strong and has his own pass and shit it would kinda be a waste to not make him instead of whatever I/you were planning to make right assuming you don't hate his play style? I know Sia was missing a bunch on release but surely they wouldn't do 2 characters dirty like that right?
all i got is wj3gonna kms
i love getting 3l main stat on weapons!!!
>>568525632Only problem is the Shine class hexa system is going to suck on CW
>>568521382they should really normalize this. whats wrong with having arcane alternatives
what do we gain from having gear options in a game where gear isnt visible and theres no interesting effects that come from gear
I'm considering making a 2nd account so I can burn something on interactive then never touch it again come CW3
not the worst idea to do that and play on it regularly you can sell scroll svc with rp and use all the meso you get for maple points on your main acc
>consider doing the weekly erda on a mule since her hexa is dog>90 frags doesn't really get her anywhere>farming would feel like shite since i'm not doing it on the main that has maxed meso and drop lines even though his hexa is okay>also no level prog on the main if i grind a mule outthink i'm starting to see why people complain about frag acquisition
four more origin skills for 40k more frags and 10k more for anus shitake just keeps making the problem worse
here's hoping they address it well, though it doesn't look good if all they're giving is more weekliesthat still leaves acquisition capped on a lower endlike let's say the added weekly is an additional 70 frags to match nightmare paradise and your mule is doing angler, because you'd be reserving nightmare paradise on the mainthis gives you 115 frags a week, or 460 per month, and 5.5k per year, wow dude that's a little more than 10% of the way done and requires adding another weekly to the chore wheel time for another 7 years of weekliesunless you grind which, again, sucks doing on a mule when you could be doing it on a main
at this point the only humane thing to do is make weekly dungeons per character and erda weekly per character and just let anyone who wants to do shit, actually let them do their shit for as much as they want otherwise there's no one going to be left playing this shit like wtf am i supposed to rewatch one piece 7 times over
that's still 4 years to max with our current skills doing only weekliesbut then that's spread across all charactersfair i suppose, but at what cost realistically most people would probably do at max 2-3 characters at a timeyou'd burn yourself out real fast doing all those weeklies on multiple characters
epic dungeons tongue my anus
Nexon can't even update the cash shop regularly and that's shit that makes them money. No way they do anything about frags.
at this point it's like who cares breuh, anyone who is going to do 10+ epic dungeons and erda weeklies for untradeable frags is dead inside with only maple as his one thing in life, just let em do their thing, just let the casuals do it on their 3-4 lomiem mules as well like what is this people are going to start dropping reboot for classic where they can prog as much as they want whenever they want instead if inkwell makes another nothingburger band aid +20 frags per week cope change
funny how not worth it epic dungeons are on reg i never subject myself to that shit
>>568537564Classic will be dead in 6 months, assuming it ever comes out. Hyped too soon, developed too slow
hype doesn't exist. when was the last time anyone was hyped for an announcement? people got lives to focus on not some maplestory classic shit that got announced half a year ago. im not on the edge of my seat waiting for classic to drop so i assume everyone else here is the same way.
that guy who cried at that star wars thing
I unironically got hyped the moment I saw the kanna trailer because it meant my investment into Haku didn't go to waste!
Kanna would be a great class if the mobbing wasn't so dog shit
I will admit the mobbing could be much better. The moment you get to the larger maps it really just isn't consistent enough until you're also one/two shotting with talisman which is far beyond the point where your summons are one shotting. Luckily sol janus makes the later grind much easier, but it is obviously at the expense of inefficient farming until janus is at least level 10 which itself can take some time.
uh who cares janus solves all mobbing there is no shit mobbing cause janus.
What if you don't have janus?
lollmao
>>568538952nah changseop is making nupIe too sweaty, if inkwell doesn't remedy this in the correct way and suddenly drops classic i could see it overtaking the current game casuals need about 500 frags per week "free" to max hexa on one character in 2 years, wappers would be getting 500 extra from 2 waps per day at 1k it'll be 1 year to max hexa on 1 character if these type of changes don't happen in the next 2 years or so and classic drops, it's over for this game, it'll go down to 200-500 on steam like in 2012-2014 and classic will stabilize at 20k daily
The only solution to not having janus is to get janus. Or you can wait for cw3 to spoon feed you them if you're planning on making a bossing mule / main at that point.
guy that drops maplestory for maplestory because he couldn't max out systems in maplestory does not exist
there's so much things they can do at this point like make RoD actually give frags as rewards not 1 frag for 10 gold coinsscrap the dumb fucking erda booster from cash shop and make it cost like 2bil mesos on reboot and buyable per character make bosses drop frags, make Kai a permanent boss (why even scrap something like this? just a waste of resources at this point on their end)put a boss coin shop and have frags in there for weekly boss coins uncap erda weekly, more players online will be doing their 5k+ mobs weekly or simply just 2x the frag rate like the erda rates during haste and eventually perma
literally none of those are going to happen
it'll happen but it will be too late, basically once half of reboot leaves for classic after inkwells erda frag solution will be to add +25 per week from doing 15 mystic frontiers
kind of happening already and probably the easiest system to control and adjust over time with no real need for overflow so that makes sensemoney so never happening and not getting crept because it's moneythe entire point of kai and i guess whatever the cw4 boss would be is having his rewards be so good it provides an actual monetary incentive to speedrun challenger rank and it's still arguably too good even in the context of an event that's intentionally too good, that you get to run once on 1 character you made for cw. if you could bring champs to an unchanged hkai (not very hard 2bh) you kinda perma break any possible interactive economy and render the original sources of pretty much everything he drops stuff for (so, not brilliant set) pretty much irrelevant for progression so boot just becomes even more handless shitters that can't do any grandis stuffdumb because it will have overflow/overly reward some playersextremely dumb they think someone actually playing can wap 60k mobs weekly consistently minimum already as per this event. they aren't giving you 1000+ frags weekly for logging in and breathing>more players online will be doing their 5k+ mobs weeklyno one cares about the number on steamcharts at boardroom meetings they care about player retention and that would bring it down on an extended timescale because the guy that logs in to wap for frags would get all his frags and then stop logging in without being a certified end game level 298 chud which is like the point of modern maplestory. that's why stuff is capped to daily and weekly in the first place they figured out how to make losers log in over a decade ago in every gacha gamedumb
kai wouln't break the economy, more full set eternals + cheap spares = more brilliant set on the auction so endgamers can actually make some mesos for once instead of pearl clutching years old shiternals
i dunno if they thought gene pass was economically warping enough to run once in kms surely they'd be skeptical of unchecked kai drops
kai eternals are 150mil on kms which is min price i think i doubt it would have any negative effect
he can drop the other set too he just does it at a decently low rate
since im 700%+ boss im cooked with ring changes and need to start rolling an att/att or att/ied sentaichi
nice 4th one just in time for ssf we gone be tappin boys
If Erel is shit I will probably just make a Hayato in cw3 to trivialize all the solo boss content and name it something stupid like HakuPawSlave or something along those lines. I already have one but it's just barely BM solo level so it would probably make more sense to start a new one from scratch than push a full 2l unique one to hseren level.
erel is iframed during burst and has a free gene iframe as well chance of it being shit is slim unless its hexa m1 equivalent is just total crap but also slim chance since sia's boosts like 8 skills at once
I have a feeling the burst iframe will get converted to hold down damage reduction like a lot of other classes. Maybe what I'm most worried about though is whether they decide to mirror Erda Link on Erel since that'd slow down progress as well.
sia m1 is just ray and antares it's just really overtuned but ye it's very unlikely erel is bad unless they do weird stuffi remember sia's saying erda link is actually strong early but idr if that's because of how fucked up sia's m1 unlock is or not
should i be using ascends in exlotus during p1 with colelctors or p2 while sayrams is still on to get out faster or just save it for iframes throughout the fight or save it for last burst in p3?
thanks but im already 9 set can i just have the 10 bonus bright cubies pwease
>>568542443because the entire point is that you don't finish, anon-kun
there are plenty of neenoopers with maxed hexas you just have to go hit the mobs
done at the end though and it's cause they wap
yuo need to be a high level anyway to face powerful fun bosses like baldrix and jupiter u'll get the sol erda fragments on the way there
yep in 5 more years we can have one max hexa character, maybe in 25 more years we can finish our mules
don't worry bro inkwell will make it take 24.759 years in about 10 more years
>>568564793you're like a 4 months old CW character who cares
why are u being mean to me
If they’re adding Erel does that mean lel is next yearhttps://youtu.be/fml-IZQymIE
>>568541264Inkwell can't even manage numaple, you really think they'll be able to handle both? Classic will be rife with botters and RMT week 1 and inkwell won't do shit about it because player numbers.
shine niggas are extremely gay i wish they never added them
there are 8 mlm and wlw classes and the star children are none of them, how did u miss so bad
>>568586210wouldn't be a real issuemeso acquisition was extremely low in the closed test, the people who grinded 12 hrs a day had something like 100-150k by the end
>>568589682At least if they grinded 12 hours early on they got a decent amount of levels right?
>>568590692monster damage works different a bit now so instead of taking 1 hit on top of a mob and going into iframe, there is no iframe until you take about 3-5 hits, so if you're just botting standing on tops of mobs you'll be -90% hp or dead without using potionsso bots will get to about lvl 50 in a week but will be spending at least half or more of their mesos on potionspeople also sold vendor weapons for about 2x vendor price (like 10-20k) so i dont see the market being controlled by bots/rmt either
*hits cwack pipe*i kinda want everything in the pwemium pwassif it was 35k i might fall for it but 50 is too much
>>568589682I wish I could be as optimistic as you are regarding this. I think one of the biggest problems classic will face is botting and RMT. Will have to see how Nexon handles it, but I am not optimistic about that nor do I believe any of the fresh server start problems will last to combat against bots and people who are willing to swipe to flex their status.
no flash jump for chief bandit no play
>>568593179I was tempted too but yeah $50 is a bit too much.
Isn't there a cash shop transfer coming up?
the cs twansfer is on the very last week of this event cycle nyes
isn't 50$ the cost of 10 bpot cubes anyway? it's funny how they balance to cost so no one can really say they're getting ripped off
the cost of 10 bpot cubes is logging in and finding an orange area in mystic frontier (this happens 4 times a week minimum) and then passing a checkim just a little hungry for them because i tiered up my shoes to leggy recently and they're only +16 att +5% all which is not bad but its a little mid compared to a nice 2lthe black flames would also nyot go amiss while my stupid chud cfe is doing this to me
wtf you cant even buy bright bpot cubes i guess its not a bad deal then. cant wait to get my 6 legion champ bulers up and running so i can buy that kind of stuff

>>568602435The guy is incredibly fucking frustrating if you don't have the dps to just melt him - he can straight up CHAIN his damage reflect states, and there's little you can do but sit around until it wears off.That said, his rewards are kinda garbo, so don't feel bad.if it makes you feel better, Orchid utterly humiliates him in one shot, in-universe (One of the notes talks about it)
>>568602769>his rewards are kinda garboGuess I'll just wait then until I can melt him as you said

How does party loot work for bosses? Does everyone get their own drops only they can pick up or is it like free for all and you're reliant on some jackass not scooping everything up? Doesn't seem like it's a normal MMO system where you have to roll on gear and hope you roll the highest (you didn't).
>does everypony get their own dropsfor some things >is it like a free for allfor most things>doesnt seem like you rollyou can elect to do that, in the party options window, it was a recent addition
>>568606459Certain things are instanced (Pitched/Dawn crystals, absolab/arcane boxes, ring boxes, boss crystals)Other things are FFA (Angel Ring, Estella Earrings, cubes, power elixirs lol)Other things are FFA, but you can set party loot distribution so you roll to see who gets it (pitched gear, grindstones, etc)
>>568606754>>is it like a free for all>for most thingsThat sounds like shit, especially for rando groups you're basically gambling in not only drops but that someone doesn't grab everything (they will) and this is assuming you even clear (you won't).
>>568607132>>That sounds like shit, especially for rando groups you're basically gambling in not only drops but that someone doesn't grab everything (they will) and this is assuming you even clear (you won't).correct, it was a huge problem for the server where you cant trade, they invented the roll system for thatfor worlds with trading it doesnt really matter because we split the proceeds from selling the drops evenly
we already had a version of the roll before they added it, you walk to the left corner and cast blink and whoever randomly teleported the farthest to the right gets the drop but its an honor system
>>568607390Honestly with the way the game is it sounds like interactive is better in every aspect except everyone saying how much you actually have to spend to get even a modicum of progression.
mr president, a second [big gross fly] has hit [my room]
>>568607576that's because it is except for the paying part because no one really pays, not anymore with how free the cubes have becomethe biggest hurdle is a minor networking challenge to become situated in a guild and get access to information like how to get frenzy service and finding players around your progression level to party with for bosses, the hero worlds skip this by just having infinite randos in the party finderif you can get over that hump its really quite nice
>>568608067I'm gonna make a second account on interactive and hyper burn something, likely a zero, since that's what I plan to main. Having the client installed alongside steam will also allow me to takepart in the PTS and such. if I somehow end up liking interactive more I can just make my CW3 character there on my main account. Sure I would be losing out on some cosmetics but with only 3k legion those legion pots will put me way ahead anyway. Maybe can get away with not spending a crazy amount, I'm not trying to get like a bil CP just enough to comfortably solo some bosses. I'm fine with spending upwards of $400 a month and that's what In used to budget for gacha anyway.
>>568608801sounds like a good time! I'll be going as Erel and would be happy to show you around some bosses if you want
if you wanna be cringe 400 usd gets you a nice set of starter gear should be around 200m cp just find a guild that will let you into the trading discord
How much are cosmetics? $400 for 200m CP sounds reasonable to me.
depends on your fit you can put some nice stuff together for less than $10 not including transparents. if you want an expensive weapon or some old shit probably around $30-$50
i dont have a visual aid but i think crown is when they added some more class default nx sets so we'll look out for those
>>568609829That's really reasonable, so for like $450 I can have "decent" gear and a great outfit. So hen people are saying "you basically need to buy a house" to play on interactive where is that coming from/ The people with 1bil CP or just misinformed?
Mushroom game
>>568610146>So hen people are saying "you basically need to buy a house" to play on interactive where is that coming from/ The people with 1bil CP or just misinformed?a little bit of boththe people with 1b combat power are sometimes buying meso from third parties to star force their gear past the 22-23 soft limitbut also there's a lot of misinformation because of people just repeating that over and over and so the people who haven't played interactive in 10 years and the people who've never played it just catch iti've got this much without having spent anything, with even more upgrades slated soon but i grind a lot so its not really typical
late game gear is $100-$200/ea, giga whale end game gear is upwards of $2k/ea. I'm just a baby so idk what content the godly shit lets you do that you can't do with regular shit
there arent that many bossesat 800 i can do my portion of xkalos (he's just like 5 ckals in a trench coat) but probably not my share of an xadv or xbaldrix or xkalingthat's really it, there aren't that many bossesthis summer we're getting a boss above xkaling and a boss at about the same level as hard limbo lots of 1b combat players are actually level gated out of the new boss because they're sub 295 and havent trained enough
>>568610814How long has that taken you?
>>568611852idk a whileits been maybe 2 years since the 6th job update made mobs worth hitting so i guess i'd start counting there
Word of advice: don't play DPM classes unless you enjoy going from top damage dealing class to not qualifying for bosses burstier classes get into easily because of small party + bishop/lynn synergy
>>568611852i've been playing since around 2014 and have spent close to $50000
>>568613186works fine on my machine
>>568615160I could have gotten my first xkaling clear, but it's fine I guess. I'll just wait for hecate to bring me to spec and take it easy for now.
i finished my bosses and capped my star boxes and did my dailies and did my event minigame weekly for the 2000 exp vouchers and now i just have to organize my boss parties (before ssf preferably)
i've got a lot of room to grow still as a big noob but yeah its giga fun and real straightforward at this pointI was shopping around and I can make 10-15mil combat power gains for around 50bil buying a new slime ring, as well as buying new arcane capes and shoesprobably get those done before I get back to going more pitched from 2 set, mitra is my biggest gain but im hoping prices tank with the psok changes coming in crown as people offload old mitra'safter ssf events usually theres an influx of gear into the market as wellI drop down my gear to a legion champmy title expires in like 2 days tho on a diff topic ckalos rewards fucking suck, I was debating looking for a duo or trio ckalos for my 250mil 80k hexa renny but like shit grindstone and shit eternals its not even worth the time over soloing nkalos besides some more destiny traces and idgaf on a mulemoving up not being worth it is so lame but I guess it saves me from yet another bossing party
I incidentally had the same discussion with my duo partners. I duo ckalos on two characters because of the time it takes and the shit rewards. I was fine with it pre-destiny lib because it made sense, but now it's just a waste of time to bother with it unless you go for a 4-man xkalos to try and go for the hammer drop. The worst part is that coordinating with dogshit / unreliable players will make the xkalos experience insufferable like the ckalos experience was back when bombs were still rng and everything had stupid hitboxes.
>no gear i need to buy on the auction house >no boss party is willing to accept a completely fresh pay2win player Is it over for me? Should I go back to Heroic?
yes
oh yeah I'm full on destiny seren mission, it goes until 3k until its capped I believedeciding if its better to do my overspec shitter run now before my title expires or wait for crown with hecate, don't think I would overcap by then but idkthoughts?currently im just trying to get enough gear gains to have breathing room on ckalos destiny mission, I'm mincut as is
why did you claim the title so early?
if ur overspec now ur gonna be overspec with hecatei'd try it it might be fun
oh SHIT i forgot to boss last week
ill try destiny seren prac in a hour or so I guess, surely its not even that bad hahagot ckalos on my bishy first here in a secuhh I claimed the title cus the other big dps in my bossing party claimed his as well and we were going for our first hlimbo clearnow that we got nbaldy down next up on the list is practicing hadv and then trio xseren
start cw3 NOW
start it a little later please im a bit tired from squeezing during haste event
if they announce cw4 im skipping cw3
I giga slacked during haste but made gains and shit so whatever all I have to do is my weekly bossing and I prog, so im pretty fresh for cw3 nglI've been informed 2500 destiny points is the cap so ye need to run it downbish ckalos and the guy wants to do our xlotus duo and ntfa duo on my bish too after so yippie bossing
my haste title expires a day before the crown maintenance 200 iq here
why isnt the haste event all year long
my box of twiscuits has no flavor powder im angry
Why would bears have horse cocks in the first place? wtf
Isn't sol hecate only like 2-5 fd?
it's more like 7~9

>Lumi is losing like 5-7 FD from nerfs in crownThank you so much Changseup for giving me a new skill I have to pay for so I can do the same damage I did before. Why did Lumi have to get hit alongside Merc when they got no support to speak of?
probably because evan got shit on right before crown so it only makes sense to shit on all the other non-revamped heroes too

sair is bugged in gms so summon crew benefits from +1 target buffsit's like 15fd
yea im aware of the bug with corsair, seems crazy good though im expecting like a 25min runI guess its cus they can duck and attack and stuff but just seems pretty crackedlike seems like better than hayato but surely not so it must just be a 100% dpm uptime class thing

thoughts on this flame from weddit
good for that guywhat else do you want me to say
todays potion finished my hyper burn so i can continue feeding all my saunas to my 279 whafter shes 280 idk where ill put them its crazy theres still three weeks of event left
>afk for 3 hours>forgot to click auto harvestoops
is sauna not good 280+ or what
not him but it depends on what you wantyou can get some value out of sauna after 280but if you have mules and want fd from level advantage, a smidgen of stats from a new symbol, then you could use sauna on those instead
I just focus on one character to whatever goalcurrently bishy being bishy to 285, giving angler to my 277 yato but not paying the mp>20% for 3.6bil at 283what a stealI gave 1 week of sauna tickets to the hyperburn but the rest has been on bishy
>started the new account on interactive>forgot about doing all the boss quests again>flat broke so i can't upgrade shitI can use the meso market in 3 days, how much will 5k maple points get me?
>>568654407bera prices
>>568654550That's like 353 maple points there's not some weird conversion? If so that's really good actually, I should be able to get quite a sum.
>>568654726it's per 100m
>>568654986That's actually an insane amount from my stand point, I should really be able to get going or at least set up my gear and some cosmetics with all that. Thanks bro
>>568655307yeah even just starting out with 1b on reg lets you completely skip the cra/arcane nonsense gl glim tucking myself into bed but if you're on the same server im sure any of us 2.9 beran players don't mind giving you free basic stuff to start off with
spending a month doing literally nothing just to go to interactive is pretty funny ngl

>>568658350I can't really do shit anyway. I mean I could work on Lynn who's 265 but I really don't give af about that character and the Zero I have, 230, is about as good as they're gonna get. I'm not dumping more resources into them since they'll get remade on CW3. I made a 2nd account and hyper burned a zero and got him to 260 but I need to unlock 6th job and do bosses for a few days to get some mesos so i can upgrade some of my shit. Every other character I have is 200 and has nothing because i leveled a bunch of shit raw.
>>568658549Need a real man to handle CW3 duo with some aftergrind goon seshes
>>568647740nta but i get ~.800% from 2 hours and 30 minutes @ 287, and I consider that enough.that's almost one whole percent, mmmm..

kaling a shit
>>568683520what are the tiers
kaling seems the type to be a guro artist
Imagine getting Kaling pregnant. Wonder how evil and smug she would be with a baby insider her. Imagine the look on her face when you told her she's going to make a great mother
she would just experiment on her own baby even while being conceived
karing does nyot do that
>didn't care at all about what happened to maple world as long as the perils got stronger>whole schizoid personality started the moment she started allowing herself to be experimented onyup, surely she wouldn't experiment on something inside of her
Kaling is a NORMAL girl going to COLLEGE in MAPLE WORLDshe likes CATS and CAKE and her friend THE ADVERSARY and that's that!!!!
student kaling is a FAKER. not even an ANIMA like the original
how are they going to handle level 300+? will they squish areas? we already have an area every 5 levels...squish xp needed and just add more levels?
id rather we get a new progression system after 300 it would be fucked up to force us to level alts and then raise the cap
>>568717505>how are they going to handle level 300+?In the worst, most tedious way possible.
What if instead of increasing the cap past 300 they add Legion champion leveling as a new system instead, and it counts up the total level of all your legion champions and gives you new skills, stats and area requirements based on that. With 6 legion champions the max champion level would be 1800 then
well they're gonna have to change the fucking erda weekly from account wide to character wide because otherwise they can suck my dick if they expect me to do six mains
rebirth at level 300 and you get to choose 1 skill from another class
fuck legionslop progression it's vertical time baby
i twained for 4 hours and nyow i think i'll have a nyap before its boss night
>pick 1 skill from another class upon rebirthkms classes final cut or cross surge I guessnon-kms classes idk awaken maybe, except doesnt it scale on int, hayato's fd boosting skills don't work without having battou skillsfuck it just steal the waifus from kanna I guess except I think you could only grab one
Ill just pick divine echo. Free fat fucking FD for solo linking.
why is sia's base speed so low
sia is modeled after old explorer bishop and speed was a big issue back in the day, pre 5th job you used to have to make decent haste boots to cap speed, these days you get enough from starforce on shoes and flames generallygollux rings also come with +10 speed
Real explanation is that Sia just can't help herself around sweets. Girl gotta lay off the snickerdoodles and eat a salad. Fatty.
The thought of having to do all those fucking zero quests again is really making me reconsider my CW3 choice
i got woke and called into wyork during my nyaplife is cwuel

'isn't dat shit? wtf 10% is nothin' no it stacks with the 100/110 boost lines so it's rly nice actually
>>568742481if you end up getting a double drop line, it'll just be redundant, but it does mean you can put off trying to roll for a double prime for now
>>568735048take it back rn
It's because Maplestory M is more reliant on mounts for walk speed.Auto grind will just auto toggle mounts on and off to move and then attack

How in the fuck are you supposed to get more sol erda (not the fragments)? Every skill needs at least 3 of them and they don't drop and that counter that goes to 1k takes a fucking year to even move. Are you just supposed to get your initial 6th job skill and grind for a year just to get one more?
have you tried grinding

>>568768778>boss item pity systemsWHAT
>>568769065bro, you get pitched crystals with every boss capable of dropping pitched.From Lotus, all the way up to Seren - one per kill.You can exchange like, 120 or 130 : 1 pitched of your choice.
>>568769197>Lotus, all the way up to SerenI just cleared the first tier of Lotus the other day so that explains it.
>>568769065these things btw>>568769275n lotus would not drop these. however, n slime will drop the pinku (japanese for pink!) crystal because it THEORETICALLY has a chance of dropping an angel ringpinku crystals are 60:1 btw. (You actually get 2 crystals from the MF coupons, where as pitched whisper crystals are 1:1)
beserked drop is not real
>>568769890I've heard it drops like candy from xlot, but I haven't seen one... Lotsa Black Hearts tho
xlotus doesnt drop more of themhe doesnt drop tcs or black hearts either

Just did Hard Damien in a trio. Could have just done duo or even solo since the boss is a bit easy for my Lynn now but whatever.My dumbass forgot to change loot permissions to distLoot pops out but me and one other person stayed to the left.

https://www.4gamer.net/specials/maplestory/maplestory.htmlFound this interview that the founder of Wizet did with Japanese gaming website 4gamer during the JMS beta, really interesting lore about the inspiration for creating Maplestory.What really stood out was the firm, anti-P2W stance that Wizet had back during those days. From the interview (Google translated):4gamer: "This game will remain free to play even after its official launch, right? I understand this is because it uses an avatar system where players can pay real money to customize their character's appearance. So, I'd like to ask, can in-game currency and real money be used interchangeably?"Seung-chan Lee: "No, those two things are completely separate . The concept for this game from the early stages of development was to create a game that could be thoroughly enjoyed without paying any money at all. Therefore, all the avatar items that can be bought with real money are related to "fashion" and don't help with gameplay. Conversely, all the important items in the game can only be bought with in-game currency . In other words, there's no advantage or preferential treatment for rich people."Poor guy is probably ashamed of what Nexon has done to modern MS...
>>568792405hi
im gonna twain for two hours to cap dailies and then i think im gonna do something else until the thing
