the last two artists I commissioned have an average delivery date of 30 days and 90 days so it'll take forever to see the results since i'm only like 15 days in. hopefully the final results look nice since one was unironically more expensive than i expected it to be
That busy huh?Why not try drawing them yourself as well as commission?
i used to pick up a tablet pen to draw meme images to fuck around with other guild members, but ever since it broke i haven't bothered to do it again it was never a serious hobby anyway. that being said, most of the artists i commissioned are far more familiar with the specific niches i wanted to see, and i doubt i could compare to any of them even with practice

nice droppies this week
i'm about to start my runs after a night time cowfee. hopefully i'm just as lucky!
6th libbed buler done also will be hseren lc ignyot bad for no rentals/boss senpaitachi after libive got two slime rings and a daybreak i can tap for 2 piece gains as well on SSF should put me at like 130mil and probably 150mil with rentals i think i'll just xfer the 21 dom and kt into my sups and recube emgot a 7th lib coming up in 2 weeks or so the waitgodding is paying off

Are alts really that important in modernms? I see the word mule being used all the time.
>maintthe fuck do I do now
>>578962283Yes, even if you don't make boss mules to earn more money each week you will end up making other classes as each one basically makes your entire account significantly stronger

Maple was supposed to be an escapism from real life but they turned it into just like real life simulator where only cheaters and richfags succeed
I'm not rich but i still feel moderately successful in maple with a second dlib coming up.
maplestory has given me lots of practice at speaking to women and being around them has made me a better person i think
me too>walk up to woman>bind her>unload my burstthey always love it!
>mmos are deliberately designed to mimic real life>wtf why am I a loser in mmos too???
i look like that and i say the first thing but i dont say the second thing being around some maplers has given me perspective in that im actually a mid tier human and there is a vast gulf of people beneath me like people who tweet racist smegas and boss drop yoinkers and niggas who wait to do their dailies and those who skip events
the easiest way to become noticed is to carve out a spot for yourself in whatever guild you're in. just be that one guy who says faggot all the time around everyone and gets kicked around from guild to guild without remorse
place your betsextended maintor on time
>>578991000i see people talk about the boss drop stealers a lot but has anyone actually had it happen to them? the only ones that I always hear is it's always someones like 220 mule snatching an eyepach or zerked from a surprise hlomien pop
>>578992514they only exist in the worlds where you cant trade because in the other worlds they just sell the drop and split the money evenly that might be why
>>578988803Yeah but it took like a decade and you got it all invalidated by powercreep and with the destiny pass people are going to do it in whatever like 3 or 5 months so it means nothing at this point.
>>578992661I feel no regret regarding powercreep considering it was powercreep that got me to this point and powercreep that will get me another couple destiny lib mules eventually. Nothing ever remains stagnant in this game nowadays including equips. I do suggest viewing things relative to your current status versus stressing about the possibility of lower effort players reaching the same point you were at a while ago with marginally less effort. It's far healthier.
>>578992514I've only had someone steal a twilight mark from me in CW1 which is pretty whatever, never had any issues otherwise
>>578992628Not really a thing anymore after Dist, but Dist has killed all the excitement of watching a box pop and pitch fall out of it
>>578993121Everything being invalidated makes it so it's hard to justify ever really playing seriously or going hard so the winning move becomes to get as much out of the game as you can with the least amount of effort. Shit is ass backwards.
three years no xlot
>>578994090>>578993976Invalidation implies that the end result is meaningless when it clearly isn't since the end goal is the same for everyone. Perhaps you mean to say its value has diminished, but that has been the case for nearly every single improvement they offer in the way of skills or items. If you're unhappy with the speed they are progressing then that's perfectly fine too, but I honestly prefer this over the slog that was unkillable boss release for several months that they followed up until BM.
editor's note the end goal for some people might be different! lots of people play for the great story and the fine music and the wonderful community its only sad and cringe if you're very obviously jealous and/or tsundere of the people ahead of you while sour grapesing every single day for three years! but no one would do that...
>>578994143I was going to do Xlot + nlimbo with the haste title at the end of event.>>578995572Yeah the value did diminish. I remember even the first gene pass felt meaningful but now it's like meh whatever. Same with Dlib post November.>>578995724Doubt any of you are 286+ on cw3. Sounds like you're jealous of me actually.
i used to mpe with a guy whos 400m combat now and is only up to nkaling but he has a pretty lowroll learning disability i would be super embarrassed if he passed me
>>578996771Well I'll be the first full solo dlib which no one here can do. It's very easy to get points for the bosses now just through parties though.
>>578996604>same with dlib post novemberThe requirement will still roughly be early endgame tier considering you'll still need around 108k hexa for most classes. That's not at all like black mage who initially required full 22* arcanes and accessories just to party up for and can now be done with a full set of rentals.
dont forget ur helmet i'll call the school and have them remind the bus driver to buckle you in have a good day sweetie
I'd be super embarrassed if it took me over a decade to dlib. The fact he's trying to flex it just means he's low caste dalit.
>>578997208This isn't even the full dlib though, it's only the first third part, so saying you're dlibed at the moment isn't really the case. You're only one third of the way in. The requirements for full dlib are as crazy as 22 canes were back then.
>>578997548Saying you dlib part 1'd is stupid since you receive the destiny weapon after part 1 and even get the blue message. Anything after is technically an upgrade (part 2 literally just gives an extra skill) unless part 3 releases and they potentially recolor the weapon to make it special again. It's such a silly argument that I'm wondering if you even really care about the lore-wise progression at this point.The power requirements for part 2 are pretty gross though, but I imagine the powercreep Changseop promised in kms next month should address that.
I'm only anticipating the balance patch to see which classes they totally fuck or ignorethey always do because they play blatant favorites and can't handle a 50-man roster
kaling owes me sex
i'm just excited to see mech shafted yet again and see as they all spam their lying down man in inven
>>578998358It's not stupid. You're getting the equivalent of a base gene weapon after the Magnus? mission compared to Genesis lib. It's only a third of the way in and its looking like you'll need to do Hard Jupiter to fully dlib. So all the idiots going hurr me dlib me make dlib mule now will get filtered from ever fully dlibbing.
>>578999086Genesis weapon is unusable until the very end whereas dlib part 1 is an immediate upgrade. Sorry to say but you're wrong here. It's perfectly fine to say you're dlib'd and then say it's upgraded dlib until part 3 releases and then maybe we can consider the whole process as a whole, but as of now it doesn't exist so there isn't a real metric.
oh my goodness the game is up an hour and a half early its a christmas miracle
I predict phantom will get the big W as my out of left field prediction. Evan and mech will remain cucked. Flora and Anima are safe and maybe get buffed. Explorers will be taking a small L.This came to me from a dream induced by the microplastics in my brain.
>>578999436Lore wise it's only part 1. It's also not as big of an upgrade as arcane>gene weapon was, so even though it's useable, it's still only the baby version of the weapon you have to upgrade 3 times just like in the Genesis line.There's a blue message for getting to 290 as well which I think takes more skill than getting party carried through dlib, currently the equivalent of doing a trio hluwill/hlucid/cgloom for lib points.
290 on cw*
>>579000823It's not as big because it's basically half the increase from just the flat att and flame bonus along with the boss damage increase being applied.Also getting a blue message for 290+ in cw is perfectly okay too? It's a different kind of autism which is fine but honestly if you can put in the 16+ hours daily to hit it up to the end of cw you kind of deserve the shout out. Of course just hitting 290 isn't really going to do anything to get you those 3 man grandis parties (or even duos if competent enough), nor will it make any of the destiny missions any easier for even part 1.
>>579001781Yes it will, the diff between 285 and 290 in FD is like having 4 22* eternals vs 4 18* eternals. You have very poor foresight.
does that mean youre 290 in cw then
>>579002085You would currently need 22* 3 or 4 set eternals anyway to have a chance at dkaling... What exactly are you trying to prove here? Have you even done dkalos at this point?
he hasnt even done xlotus let alone dseren dude, game is up you won just let him flop around
>>579002348I'm saying getting to 290 takes more skill than getting carried through part 1 dlib in a party. And I'm 286, the highest so far in this general, but it's not like I was gunning for 290 this cw. Might try it next cw.
>>579002793You can't progress destiny liberation entirely in a party, at least not until destiny pass releases in kms and gets ported here. Of course you can milk the points slowly with large parties, but the destiny mission wall is still there in either case.
>>579000823>There's a blue message for getting to 290 as well which I think takes more skill than getting party carried through dlibhitting 290 is entirely a matter of time spent on grinding and potentially money spent on passes. there is very little skill involved in something that a simple bot could accomplish.
>>579002413It's not like I can't do them easily anytime I want anyway. No one does weekly xlotus mincuts because they are not efficient. You won the chance at sucking my ass lil bitch.
>>579003228You absolutely can, 300 party dlib points weekly is 200-300mil territory.>>579003247The difference is getting to 290 is all through personal effort. Getting dlib points in a party then taking some time off every week to grind out a kill of a boss you've been doing for years takes 0 skill at that point.
>>579003643200~300M is not nearly enough to even get halfway through dkalos and a bad player would have trouble even getting through dseren at that funding level...
>>579004094Duo nkalos/nadv/trio -nlimbo/nrms is doable and gets you dlibbed with like 0 effort.
>>579003643>The difference is getting to 290 is all through personal effortyou didn't say effort, you said skill. grinding is a completely brainless activity which is exactly why it can be so easily automated or relegated to jose, either one of which can put in the effort for you.
>>579004546I can't tell if you're ignoring the fact that the destiny mission wall exists or not and assuming points are the only thing that exist. You can build up as many points as you want, but unless you're competent enough at a given funding level those points will eventually get capped and wasted.
>>57900471320 min changes basically break down that wall and they are November patch for us. So at most,.people who played for decades can enjoy a 3-6 month period before all their "skill" is invalidated by the November destiny pass. Which seems like a terrible ROI compared to people starting now and getting to part 1 dlib in a few months.
>>579004554But grinding without jose or automated still takes more skill than doing the same boss you've been doing for years already and already know all the mechanics of except it's just an hp sponge version. If there was a new boss that changed every 6 months or so that you had to kill to dlib then yeah it would be pretty skillful, but at this point the part 1 dlib bosses have been out for years.
>>579005784Now you're being misleading. The 20 minute change adjusted their hp values to exactly 2/3'rds their original value which would mean the overall pacing is exactly the same unless you were counting on the 17th burst to save you in which case it's a nerf. Unless you are including the boss nerfs that were already already there prior to that change, in which case you would still effectively need 102~108k hexa to clear as discussed earlier, which is still roughly the territory of full 22* gear with 3 set eternals and arcanes but with less optimized lines. And that's fine if you want to disagree because a couple kms classes like cadena can do it at 95k post changes, but being able to play a difficult class to squeeze as much damage out of it is a skill the average kms and gms player doesn't have.
meanwhile my dumb ass giga timegated still by pitched sitting here unable to progress
waow
i have never hit 3l m att only 3l att. fuck you
>>579006371If you're on spec for your class dlib, shouldn't take more than an event or two to line up the double dip buffs or some title and knock it out in a couple of hours. You're only time gated by dlib points at this point which the Dpass solves. Anyone that far in will have the hands for a clear, unless you were literally bussed up to those bosses or were buying some boss service.
>>579006163>But grinding without jose or automated still takes more skill than doing the same boss you've been doing for years already and already know all the mechanics of except it's just an hp sponge versionthe difference between grinding and bossing is that the latter at least has some mechanics to concern yourself with while the former does not, which is why it's much easier to make bots for grinding than for bossing. grinding is a completely braindead activity where you just repeat the same rotation on repeat for hours and that rotation is something you can learn in a matter of minutes, in fact i know a guy who taught his kid brother to grind for him while he's busy with other stuff. the level of skill required for that is on a level that a child can manage but i don't see any kids killing grandis bosses.
>>579008185>if you're on spec for your class dlibYeah I'm sure the 200~300M bossers in 3~6man grandis parties a bunch of which they can't even qualify for at that funding level are definitely on spec to clear with double dipped buffs.
none of the mechanics are hard that they are walling players though it's mainly stat gap breakpoints
for every person saying it's easy there are probably two or three randoms out there applying for parties where they are stronger than you and have been running the boss for years but still die out anyway
>>579008430that's true but it's still hard to do consistently as it's tiring and mentally exhausting so it's like you got no gas tank and no willpower if you can't
>>579007523my culvert went up by 20% from this lol
im 400m and i have not done any limbo party yeti can do up to nstar solo
>>579009538the reason why it's mentally exhausting is precisely because it's so easy and repetitive that it gets boring. the way you solve that is by stimulating your brain in some other way such as by watching movies or youtube on a second monitor. at that point you're basically just doing the same thing as the old women who knit while watching tv or listening to the radio, i.e fiddling with your hands while focusing on something completely different.
>>579011527I can agree with that. But at the other side of the argument is - someone whos the best bosser ever would be a guy who does 16 burst mincuts of every boss and then takes off gear to match the next boss to mincut it to 16 bursts, for every boss, on crystal cap per week. Which sounds equally as pointless and retarded, but I digest.
i'll be posting my late dlib and the min cut boss clears that come after as I get them along with any commissions that get finished around that time! don't worry /msg/, i won't deprive you of such great and cute haku artwork!
>>579011986i have no idea how this other side of the argument relates to the topic at hand but the fact that you're currently digesting probably explains a lot
>>579014420It's the same shit but different flavor. Everyone is barely conscious + on some pills or drugs while bossing same as braindead training.
>https://www.nexon.com/maplestory/micro-site/frieren?utm_source=%2Fnxl%2Fmain%2Fgames%2F10100&utm_medium=nxlyep, I'm skipping this one
Aren't all the collaborative events just cash grabs with barely any substance for content?
>>579015520uhh that sounds like a you problem bro. the modern bosses in this game are mechanically complex enough that it's going to take at least some effort to beat them unless you're so overgeared you just one-burst them. if you don't believe me, feel free to test how long you can grind with your eyes closed versus how far you can get into endgame bosses with the same restriction. we both know that the difficulty level for bossing is obviously higher than for grinding but you for some reason still feel like you have to defend your losing position, even if it's with some total nonsense like everyone being on pills or whatever other grasping at straws you'll come up with next.
Remember all,Its okay to be wrong sometimes and admitting failure means you are improving and being better than you were beforehand. Respect is given to those who take accountability in the effort to learn from mistakes.
>>579016803yes, I've not yet found one good.maybe MAYBE the AoT minigame where you had to use a ninja rope but that's all
i'm personally on multiple drugs and use my central control system to decrease mental capacity to exactly 1% (4IQ equivalent) so that the cum capacity can increase 400% while bossing
>>579017259Just because it's a bit more mechanically involved doesn't mean it takes higher skill. Running down 2-3 burst ctene on mules is the same braindead effort required as wapping.
>>579017636Yep, realizing wapping takes more skill than bossing is hard pill to swallow for most. But at the end of the day they know I'm right and can't refute it.
>>579018018I basically had the same amount of fun doing 4 ctene + bossing on main yesterday pre-reset while listening to music than I would with about 3-4 hours of wapping while watching an animey
Pre-maint not pre-reset*
why are people in this thread even talking about a dpass like it exists, did I miss something
>>579018119>Just because it's a bit more mechanically involved doesn't mean it takes higher skillyes it does, which is why it's way easier to program a bot for grinding that bossing. all a grinding bot has to do is perform the same sequence of a handful of actions over and over again in a loop. you don't even have to look at the screen if you've memorized the platform positions.
>>579018895Same as bossing then and your brain is the bot, once you know the mechanics you're not going to die out again.
>your brain is the botwhen you think about it in a philosophical kind of way, you're not wrong. we're all just bots living in a simulated reality with perma death turned on
>>579018787brand new cope from your favorite 400m combat kain ctene mule
>>579019216you can still die out even if you know the mechanics because there is an element of randomness to them, which is why bossing bots are so tricky to make. bm's lasers for example can spawn in different locations so you can't just program a bot to always move to specific locations in a loop and the same reason also prevents you from fighting it blindfolded. that randomness in the mechanics requires paying attention and reacting to what's happening, which is inherently more difficult than simply repeating a fixed sequence of predetermined actions like you do when grinding. in a nutshell, grinding is essentially like juggling a single ball while bossing involves juggling 3. you can learn to get very good at both, but the former is a fundamentally easier skill to learn due to the lower level of complexity involved.
>>579020892It might be less mechanically complex but it doesn't make it any less skillful imo. It's easier to be good at bossing and bad at wapping than be good at bossing and good at wapping. I think most people fall into the former due to them making the mistake that mechanical complexity is equal to skill. If you can do ball tricks but don't got the gas tank to do them on court during a real game then they may as well be useless. Lebron is gassing out at the end of the game cus he can't wap and he's getting level gated from new bosses. MJ and Kobe ran their teams to victory by equivalent to wapping instead of technical skill that you're assuming bossing requires.
running bosses despite them being min clears is quite literally the same kind of endurance and skill in use aspect wtf are you yapping about
editors note bossing is harder we know this because he will not do an xlotus solo but he will collect cw exp welfare despite a tc being an extremely free upgrade
>>579021886>It might be less mechanically complex but it doesn't make it any less skillful imothat's just plain wrong because the way skill manifests is in the ability to perform more mechanically complex tasks. this is true both for physical tasks like juggling as well as something mental like math or chess. the reason why a mathematician is able to solve more difficult problems than a high schooler is because he's more skilled at that form of problem solving, same thing with chessmasters being able to plan much further ahead that novices and experienced jugglers having to hand-eye coordination to handle more balls at once compared to amateurs. the higher your skill level the higher the level of complexity you are able to handle, that's how skill is expressed. grinding is an activity that requires little to no skill because the level of complexity is so low, especially when optimized rotations for your class and level are available on discord for you to follow. it's purely a matter of how much free time you have to spend doing it, which you for some reason mistake for skill. if you define skill as how long you can keep performing a task then you arrive at the awkward conclusion that bots are infinitely skilled because there is no limit to how long they can perform, which makes it a pretty silly definition if you ask me.
>>579024671That just makes you end up as a one trick pony, like you can juggle, but the others can juggle and dribble at the same time, so you're worse than them. You're saying juggling is somehow more skillful than dribbling which is about the same skill levels at the end of the day when you're spending 4 hours on either.
>>579022526IDK about that, seems like there is way more people who would rather boss and give up on wap entirely than advocate for being a better mapler by being good at bossing and wapping.
>there seems to be more people who would rather boss and give up on wap entirely*raises paw* ummm, how do you think they would reach the new bosses without at least wapping a tiny bit though
niggas say bossing takes more skill but then do 5 min party grandis bossing 1-2 burst per phase which is just pressing sequence and holding down burst - even less mechanically complex than an active wapping rotation
idt you'd be doing 5 minute hlimbo and hbaldrix run unless all your three members can solo though since that would be on pace for 15 minute solos individually... and at that point you'd be soloing because you would be on pace for second dlib even if your limbo run was that fast and you never ran baldy
so you can train your hands to make bossing easier, but there is no training for wapping which makes it harder
>>579026987once you learn all the bosses then there is nothing to do but wap anyway, so bossing is just the tutorial for the wapping endgame
>once you grind to level 300 there's nothing to do but boss anyway, so grinding is just the tutorial for the bossing endgame
>>579027685There's very few level 300s compared to the thousands of dlib which pretty much paints the real story of how it is in-game. Most of the difficulty in bossing is removed through partying since you can just rely on others if you mess up. Leveling is something that can only be obtained through your own effort, and will always be painful for those who rely on others for their gains.
>>579025686>You're saying juggling is somehow more skillful than dribblingi never said anything even remotely like that so either you're struggling to understand what i wrote or you're trying to misrepresent my position. the point i made is that a higher level of skill manifests as the ability to perform more complex tasks. simple as. these skills are not mutually exclusive, so for example you could be both a master juggler as well as a math professor and even a chess champion as well. and in case it wasn't clear i'm talking about juggling as in keeping small balls in the air while you appear to be thinking of something related to basketball. to reiterate, my overall point is that it's silly to pretend like grinding takes any skill when it's a very simple activity that you can easily relegate to a bot, jose or even children who obviously don't possess a very high level of skill at any task. bossing for comparison is more demanding even if it's not exactly rocket science either. this doesn't mean you should stop grinding in favor of bossing or that you don't benefit from wapping and i'm genuinely confused how you would take it that way. breathing takes literally zero skill but you should probably still keep doing it.
>>579028138erm, as far as i'm aware dlib missions can't be done in parties, unless you're suggesting someone is piloting for them remotely for the hard part, but even then grind services are fairly cheap at $2/hr
inkwell has lost it
oh no no no classic bros what is this?paying 30 dollars to not even get access?the only founder hat that isnt mark of the beta male is a homosexual cowboy hat?AHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>579028462The hardest part of Genesis lib was getting the points for vhilla and clearing vhilla was actually the easiest part of libbing. Why would it be different for dkaling or dkalos?
i don't think you've fought those bosses over 30 minutes before i think ur first ekaling that benny carried you through was like 15 minutes so we're gonna let you find out
i haven't been reading any of this, genuinely dont understand why you guys are replying to pookaj
>>579028220I'm starting to realize the only people who idolize bossing as skillful are the ones who never earned their gains and were simply given them through party bossing. If you actually trained your hands instead of jumping through hoops to get ahead into the next boss tier then I don't see how something like dkalos or dkaling can wall you if you're on spec.
Erm wtf????
>>579028503>>579028546>>579028940BROTHER ARE YOU SERIOUS YOU COULD NOT SCROLL UP 0.5 POSTS
im screenshotting his copes and farming :lmao: and :cringe: reacts while im bored at work
>>579028774Im 100k+ on CW so yea I did have to do grandis mincuts. My hands improved giga exponentially since then and wapping seems harder now than bossing.
>>579028612umm, most people were gated by lucid and william back in the days. the point system was just put in place because genesis liberation just became a chore on mules since it was a forced 8 month waiting period and most decent mules could nuke vhilla in sub 20 minutes even back then. dlib has the adjusted point system because the idea is that it'll hold you back just long enough for powercreep to maybe push you over the next hurdle depending on party size, but of course anyone trioing most of the current hard grandis up to hbaldrix + njupiter with 20+ minute runs would just barely be under spec for dkaling
there is no + you haven't been to ekaling or nadv or nkal yet hseren is a 15 minute clear

>>579028884nobody's idolizing anything, in fact if you go through the reply chain you'll find i haven't said a word about dkalos, dkaling or destiny libbing in general. it's just a simple fact that the level of skill required to perform a predetermined rotation where you place janus balls across the map and then stand still is lower than what is needed to defeat your average grandis boss where you have to deal with partially random mechanics. bossing isn't necessarily hard, but it is very obviously harder than grinding that even a child can do. it seems to me like the only reason you're claiming otherwise is because hitting 290 or whatever in cw was a big deal to you so you want it to be a display of your skill rather than just that of time spent doing easy chores. essentially it's an ego thing.
>>579029353Well yea I am not doing 25 min mincuts during the haste event. I was in p2 test 1 by 17mins in nkalos which is close to a 30min run. Got 2 eternals so far so I'll be nkalos champ ready by the time I leap out and spend on 22 arcanes limbo side in main world. I didn't expect to get further than most part 1 dlibbers in this cw.
he is 286 editors note thats not a clear are you literally hiding off burst
>>579029663How come everyone isn't 300 then if it's wapping so unskilled? You always hear about robots or jose able to wap but where's all the lvl 300 robots and joses?
>>579030083No it's just a bad pace at my current power. 4 burst p1 and then 2 burst until first test, gotta hold ori for next.
Yup, im rolling warrior just for the manji skin.
>>579030259because that takes thousands of hours and very few people want to waste so much time on a game about mushrooms, just like how very few people have ever bothered assembling a collection of 1 million pebbles. the task itself is easy to accomplish but it is very difficult to justify the time investment required for something so pointless.
actually when you think about it that one autist evan who collected basically every single monster in monster collection and got kicked out of every discord server for being obsessed with specific players has done the hardest achievement, even harder than leveling 300 and soloing hjupiter because he's one of like three players in existence across all servers to ever bother doing it
>>579030259fucking dumbass the guy who grabbed rank1ren botted to 300
>>579030954But I have to listen to the>*bzeeew*>*HRUMPF* In kalos every week and pretend it's funner than just jumping around attacking on a map watching new bleach tybw anime?
>>579031994i haven't said anything about fun, i've only talked about skill and difficulty. people usually enjoy chill activities more than demanding ones so if anything the fact that you'd rather relax while watching anime than focus on playing around boss mechanics just reinforces my point about bossing being more difficult, which is obvious given that it's basically the same core gameplay as grinding except with added complexity. note that there's nothing wrong with you enjoying grinding even if it's easy. you only want it to be a difficult task that serves as an expression of skill because that idea strokes your ego.
my main does nkalos in a 2-2-2 fashion solo if that helps u see how much u need to do ckalos, like 1 burst p1 nkalosanyways my 135% dkalos solo looked like p1 I place down fountain and dpm and burst constantly, tanking lasers from kalos by just healing on fountain and dashing everything else, shooting systems from same spotget outta p1 on my 3rd burstI used all my mincut leeway on being able to never play same plat as kalos in p2, he go mid, I go top and dpm, he go top I go mid and jump dpm, shoot systems from mid and toptook me about 2 days of several hour evenings doing prac to clearmy first day of pracs I was in the spec to clear I needed to same plat in p2 sometimes and do bursts with fd stacks in 2-4I gained a bit more dmg to avoid thatmy clear was with 10 seconds leftmy internet shitting itself sometimes really tilts me during close runs ngl
>>579032767It might be a bit more complex than grinding but I don't really see the difficulty in it since I trained my hands. What is actually the thing inside dkaling that's walling people out of dlib that are on spec? Because after 100+ runs anyone should be ready for anything inside it.
>>579033170whether you find it difficult is entirely dependent on how much practice you've put into it, but that doesn't change the fact that there is more going on gameplay-wise when bossing than grinding, which makes the former more challenging on objective grounds. if you're a good juggler you can juggle 3 balls at the same time, but regardless of how good you are you'll still have an easier time with just 2 or 1. i'm not really interested in discussing specific bosses but generally people are afraid of dying out because it means their time was wasted and some might not have the damage needed for a run they're comfortable with.
>>579032938The problem is when your Ori is up for 5th burst but it would overkill the p1 test so you hold it and wait until next 2min burst to get to p1 test is like terrible pacing to do weekly. There's nothing skillful or mechanically complex about it. The 20 min changes basically prove me right. 16 burst mincuts is the same braindead slop as 16 hour wapping.
>>579030714Wtf they all copying my hayato
how it keeps getting worse?
>>579033652part of mincuts is not wasting damage yeah, in situations like that you need to chip more or use ascentsthere are some situations you gotta just burst, but also its okay to delay ori a burst because you have leeway on the final orithat was my first post today idk what ur yapping about really, I read it earlier on the shitter but I dont really feel like formulating an opinionsorry that happened or happy for u igthis cw wasnt as good for reggies without the 1000 hard cubes ngl but I just havent funded my lynn as much as I did my rennyit'll be almost 285 by leap I think>pic related 135mil without rentals, pretty invested hexadef can clear ekaling, nkalos maybe with rentals, ntfa might be a stretchit just gets me abyss flames so idk this been a busy ass patchidk doesnt get me anywhere rn to hyper fund the mules eithernot worth running normal variants of bosses on mules in party imo maybe after 20min changeanyways isn't the manji cape effect too flashy for classic
>what's the thing inside dkaling walling out peoplemost people are generally awful at managing multiple gauges on their own and pre-hecate you only had two lives. now at least, it's mostly that a lot of things in the boss scrape your time and you end up losing your 16th burst due to the way hp %s and phasing specific perils or kaling's main body across all phases. it's very much one of the only class optimization tests for anyone who is close to min cut due to having 8 total hp segments with no excess allowed in p3. you can 17 burst it if you're lucky with a -6s hat but most people aren't nearly as autistic enough to go through the effort of optimizing that much and would rather just fund the 3~6% fd needed to not need the last burst even if it costs a significant amount of meso nowadaysmy non destiny clear over >>578943346 was a 15 burst clear though so i'm definitely not on the lower end and probably would have been okay even if i mistimed binds in hundun p1 or even burst splits with low hp perils in p3 since i had around 20s left for the final burst
>>579033632I get what you're trying to say, but still, it never felt that way in game for me. It seems like some sort of psy-opp that people idolize bossing so much and then go on to discredit all the skill that took from training. Reminds me of those kids that like to do cool tricks with the ball but they never were good enough to actually go play real sports because they don't have time to train. They also say "ah man look training takes no mechanical skill - look i can juggle the ball 3 times, this takes more skill than actually playing the real game".
with the kaling nerfs and the new common core, how much easier will dlib kaling become
erm kaling got buffed
>>579035169I'm already 99% DPM uptime can't chip more than that. Like I said it's just not fun to run weekly if you're not hitting certain breakpoints in the boss. Holding burst or ori feels like ass.
Bosses should be changed for once monthly change my mind
>>579035347people consider bossing more difficult because it is more difficult in terms of mechanics to learn and inputs required. if you've been playing for a long time then you might have forgotten how you once had to bang your head against the wall to learn will's tests or watch yourself wipe out because of kaling's colors. pretty much every player has had to experience such setbacks with bosses at some point, but only a tiny number of players have similar memories of continuously dying while grinding until they figured out how the mobs work. i think the vast majority of the playerbase probably watch something while grinding like you mentioned doing, but how many can afford to do so while doing minclear bossing? almost none, because that requires for them to focus. if most people can comfortably do x but struggle to do y then it should not come as a surprise that they would view y as a more difficult activity that takes more skill. the logic is very simple so the fact that you think this is a psyop just shows that you are out of touch, again like due to ego given how you brought up the idea of being a "good mapler" earlier. i'm sure you can work this out.
Man, around January of last year I cleared hlomien for the first time.Around this time last year, it was cgloom.Just at the start of the year it was hbm.Today, I cleared xlot (in the cheat-y practice mode) at 78-79k hexa. Holy moly it has been a ride!290 is next, I hope. Like i said, I probably won't make it, but i'm still gonna try.
>>579037643Bossing becomes easier with time though is something you don't even mention. Like yeah it's hard at first but then that difficulty is removed as you get better. Training is not as hard at first but remains challenging even when you know what to do and what to expect - a lot of people do their bosses weekly but don't even do 1 wap daily which shows this pattern that it's actually harder than it seems when you get into higher level wapping. I brought up the good mapler point so that when I gap people there won't be any copes like oh he's just a bosser or he's just wapper. It's possible to be good at both without having to completely forsake the other.
>>579038129Grinding isn't challenging in either classic or modern maple, you are just delusional.
>>579038403Cope, bossing only gets easier over time while grinding gets harder.
that implies you can do the bosses in the first place, kid
>>579038590yeah and your dick only gets smaller over time too, go touch grass and get a gf.
>>579038631I already see the over spec cope from a mile away even though getting to that overspec solo is harder than a mincut lmao.
>grinding gets harder over time>level compressions>mechaberry>blueberry>higher tier exp potions>increased monster mob levels and corresponding exp base values>increased availability of exp sourceswhat did he mean by this?
>>579038930>increases level cap and now all those are useless and training is harder>*removes all debris from bosses while binding* bossing is now easier
let me see your level 300
>>579039537>compresses levels and adds more areas again making training easier and more streamlined>adds even more new bosses so that your bossing schedule is even harder that require stupid levels of fundingwow. that's crazy it's almost like both happen simultaneously and to think otherwise is borderline delusional
uh yeah actually working a minimum wage 9-5 is the hardest challenge in life man way harder than any human achievement
technically billions of people have 9-5's so in theory that would make it easier than even hitting level 300. the hardest achievement one can get is to fill out monster collection in maplestory!
>>579039645*new boss gets defeated in 1 day because it's just an hp spongeslop with random rng map ohkos* Realistically once you learn mechanics than all the skill required is removed. Doing a boss that you already know the mechanics off is probably easier than wapping at that point.
>>579040017And how many people are doing 8 hour waps a day that you know?
ah yes the ultimate form of skill expression, doing something easy, monotonous and boring.
>>579040363that's nice but it doesn't mean anything when the person claiming as much leaves out the important context of their own clears. unless you're trying to say that everyone is a 2B+ CP player in disguise and cleared in day one in an overspec comp. surely everyone grinding isn't an adderal addict in a dark room grinding 20+ hours a day for level 300 nowadays like it was on release, right?
literally same slop doing 2-3burst ctene
>>579040789Just goes to show the boss is not hard if it can be cleared in a day and that anyone claiming it takes skill is idolizing bossing in a way that is actually delusional.
>>579041012Actually the most hard thing you can do is killing yourself, you should give it a shot and come back here only after you done that
>>579041012nobody is idolizing anything. you want to argue about personal contributions when it comes to training but not to bossing. you complain constantly about boss clears either because they are becoming easier if they were min cut, weren't done solo if done in a min cut party, or are too easy for others with triple your funding level therefore it's just easy in general. are you autistic by any chance?
the bosspill is too brutal bros...
>>579041823I mean I brought up an example earlier that no one has been able to refute - the best bosser in the game would be someone who does 16 burst mincuts, then takes off his gear to match the 16 burst mincut of bosses lower on the list, then does this on 13 characters until crystal cap. According to you, this is like the peak of skill expression? But in reality it sounds just as insane and pointless as someone doing 16 hours of wap per day.
>>579042361oh yeah, surely every person grinding to level 300 also sandbags their exp rates by moving back to odium on 2x with no mvps to relive the true grinding experience from before instead of trying to benefit from the significantly sped up process as new areas release. you wouldn't want your level 300 moment to be soured by the fact that your faster progress was handed to you on a silver platter, right?
>>579042619No one's idolizing people going back to Odium though. What you're idolizing is not how anyone plays the game, otherwise everyone would be doing 16 burst mincuts on every weekly boss if they thought it really was skilful.
>>579031174did fucking phred beat diaperkadaj to xlotusdude ur washed
I'm forced to play demonslayer because im too broke to afford a $100 pet with a $15 subfee but god is good because i can farm with near perfect rates on the most weird maps ever by just putting my half full bottle of psoriasis conditioner on my right ALT key while playing every other game under the sun that isn't maplestory. I haven't even so much as seen easymode for like 7 bosses in the game but if yall say im challenger maplestory player and not the dlib faggots then ill take your word for it, get fucked and do better, crystal shitters.
>>579043453My Eral is like 12 bursts nkalos solo, about half as strong as my main who's 5-6 nkalos solo now. If anything I'll have a 4 month xlot solo after leaping and a few SSFs.
it don't matta, maple is struggling to retain it's players, losing them to gacha, they already cut the bosses to 20 min, automatic monster park and auto grinding and they'll continue making it even more braindead
>>579043639Now that endgame bossing isn't just whale only territory a lot of walls are coming down on what people thought was skillful or challenging. Now that more people get to experience the content we can confidently say it was all just whale gaslighting about needing hands or bossing taking skill. The game is still 90% grind.
ur an enormous loser passed by everyone and taken seriously by none, we can know for certain what exactly doesn't take skill because you jump to do it, literally everyone has your full name and address because you alone are that stupid and pathetic
>>579044079I dont disagree that it can be overhyped especially if you out gear shit but when people compare bossing to farming its not even a contest, at the end of the day i can farm with my monitor off, at least on demon slayer. That being said I could probably do some bosses with my monitor off on mhile if i had sound lol
>>579042969>nobody is idolizing people going back to Odium thoughummm, you are literally doing that by putting grinding above everything else? you only value hours put in, by that logic feel free to extend your stay to level 300 by around 16x the time by reliving the best year of maple for training around the release of kaling and kalos. you probably won't bother though, considering you think that 16 burst clearing a boss is a sign of anything when someone can just run away for 1 minute 20 seconds and burst for 24 seconds before walking away
>>579044490Training for long hours daily on a non-demon slayer would still be harder than a few hours of bosses you already know the mechanics to per week.
please stop replying to the retard
>>579044491I said neither of those are very skilful. Yet the entire MS community holds up 16 burst mincuts as the highest peak of gameplay while something like 16 hours of wapping is "skilless slave labor". Care to explain why?
>>579047496because they are a show of skill when done at an appropriate combat power relative to other players in the same class for specific mid endgame boss content most players are being steered towards, much like how leveling to 300 was impressive back when a single level in the 290s took a back breaking hundreds of hours as opposed to the just under 50~70 it does now. feel free to strip the context out of every single statement like an autist though
>>579047791How is it a display of skill if people already drilled these bosses 1000 times? If there was some new mechanics during dlib I would say, maybe, but it's just the same boss mechanics wise that people have been running for 3 years since release already.
>>579048376did they solo 1000 times before the destiny mission? did they need to optimize bursts all 1000 times? did they need to do a near 30 minute run all 1000 times? most people run in parties, and being able to properly optimize the boss run for a near 30 minute run takes more effort than a 18~20 minute duo. kaling in particular is the most acknowledged because the 20fd means that unless you are a prior dlibber who dropped their destiny wep on purpose, there is basically 0 chance that you were soloing beforehand and have to properly learn the boss for solo play with your particular class
>>579048916So we are back to carried shitters idolizing bosses they can't clear and aren't ready for if they didn't party up for points to get there lmao. The perceived skill is only there for those who aren't supposed to be there and don't deserve to dlib.
>>579049481>the perceived skill is only there for those who aren't supposed to be there and don't deserve to dlibwell yeah, the boss cutoff naturally gets lower over time just like the barrier to leveling? unless you're suggesting that's a bad thing, which is kind of ridiculous because everyone has to progress in terms of levels and bosses eventually for interest to remain in the game. everyone in this thread will eventually come to deal with it too, it's just a matter of whether it will be done right now when the requirements are still moderately high but lower than before, or later when it becomes more of an early endgame goal as opposed to a mid endgame one. at some point the metric might shift to the hfa with -20fd or even limbo/baldrix, but for now it still seems to be hkaling since most people are barely reaching that point nowadays.
thank u weekly ckal flames
>>579049805I actually initially suggested that if you want to see the bullshit of bosses being hpspongeslop then just add 10 minutes to the timer of bosses. That would've only made it 15% easier compared to the 30% nerf+20min timer we got. Either way the 20min changes proved me right and all muh mincut mohfuggas were just idolizing bosses they can't clear.
>>579051194the 20 minute change was mostly because people were complaining that dlib was incentivizing smaller parties with close to 30 minute runs. and since kms was capped to 8 crystals, they had to make it count and that meant close to 4 hours of bosses for their grandis legion champs. changseop basically capitulated and figured they can have back 1.5 hours of their time. if they didn't nerf hkaling before doing that though it would have been borderline toxic to deal with 8 different segments each contingent on a specific burst with no overlapping damage lol
>durrrrr mincut wapping dlib im gonna boooooooooorst 16 gorillian timesmodern maple is so cringe lmao, see you zakchads on the 6th
i'm about to booooooooooooorst 16 million sperm all inside of Haku!
16 burst times....now that's real nostalgic in the year 2030 with a 10 min boss timer and a 2mil cp black mage mincut
Finished my 6 ctayni byulers for that sweet sweet 30bil per week. Gonna run some bosses on main for 12bil. Then maybe some 5-6 hluwill+ntene for another 18bil tommorow. Probably wap around 5-10bil before SSF and tap some [b]itched and my 2nd eternal on cw.
>>579052246bunch of 30 year olds running around in their preorder cosmeticsyep, that's the classic maplestory experience... lol xdd
What are the most fun mains for Maple?
yall niggas really count your bursts???????like16 fucking times???????like yall burst once and then you get out a pen and paper and draw a mark and go yeah thats my first burst recorded and proven and then repeat 16 times??????what????????? do mapliggas really?????????????????
uh nyo i dont do that i play pokemon ultra moon on my nintendo 3ds for 6 (SIX) hours because the power went out for that long and just came backhowever I have learned that whimsicott is only in sun so its just never been this over I was gonna name her lara...anyways powers back holy fuck its time to do dailies

So Mihile only uses 1h swords? That seems kind of appealing aesthetically, is it fun?
classic uncs actually paying 80 bucks for our scraps lmao
>>579072395mihile is fun, royale guard makes you play quite a bit different from how most classes tend to play.
>>579073986Is it kind of like a parry mechanic? That sounds like it'd be engaging.
>>579074094it's straight up a parry yes (a real one too, not that fake ffxiv shit). Mihile has the best survivability in the game because of it but you still have to actually time it which takes some getting used to.
>>579074491That sounds fun, I'll definitely give it a look.
>>579074997it's clientside too so don't worry
no one buying it for the ugly ahh manji set we just want early access lmao
>>579077079But you can get just the $60 one in that case
correct, its the gentlemen's choice. Zakucks are in complete shambles.
can someone explain this to me, they are doing a paypiggy 3 week early access release for maple classic? what the fuck is this shit?
>>579082342Because they're1. Korean2. Can get away with it

>>579088073or you can just stop giving a fuck, wait for the full launch play that shit for like 2 weeks while your nostalgia goggles are still working and then drop that shit until inkwell takes 6 months to release fucking orbis and then you can put the glasses back on for another 2 weeks, repeat indefinitely.

Anyone else just simply devasted? Up to a point of having no real thoughts or feelings on the matter. Like I thought, maybe, things were going to be bad, but this is just...I don't know how to even describe it...abysmal dogshit? We were thinking they'd mess up on the technical level in-game and would need to take the game down for a few days for maintenance. Not a literal indie early access scam from a billion dollar company?
>>579093954wonki was forcibly retired and all the other non-kms versions got that, even super greedy ones like SEAthis is gMS doing what it has always donestill, calling inkwell the worst after all the handouts reboot got is hilarious

is the ms2 server kms or gms based
>>579108248the server emulator it uses is based on gms but they are porting over the content that kms2 had into it.

you should be happy that the true connoisseurs are getting 3 weeks to build up a wallet that you can then easily build up mesos to sell your 60% glove attack scroll you get from that one quest

Plus shes just a bitch and I kind of hate fighting her, maybe I'll give it a shot next week anywaysI forgot about ride or die though you're right, need to get my rank this week before my titles gone, guess I'll stay for that too
why didn't we go back in time and shoot the black mage when she was a baby?

im new to grandis boss shit, what does 2-2-2 mean for kalos, the designated people origin only on the 2 minute burst (so 4 minutes total) or you chain it 1 after the other to get the 25% chunk down faster without caring about the binding part since the boss gains absolute resist for a while?
it's not worth to do it in a party you gotta wait till you can solo them
2-2-2 just sounds like origin splits and realistically the only time you would vary it is when there's a significant discrepancy in funding
2-2-2 is for the weaker parties, you should find a 3-3 then you guys can split off into trios after
>you chain it 1 after the other to get the 25% chunk down faster without caring about the binding partthat's what virtually any pub party is doing, yesspecifically, 2 people burst per segment while the rest dpmyou're bursting during the groggy phase anyway so bind doesn't matter
i remember someone was calling 2-2-2 on cgloom in my 17mil kinesis and it was so pointless basically like the last 2 people may as well burst at start as well and call it a 4-2 because it was down to like 20% after 2 bursts so the last two people are basically not even needed
Yep, that's why party bossing is so lame. You stand there doing nothing til the boss is like 20% and it's your turn to boss. All the public nkalos parties are like 5 min total so the final 2 in a 2-2-2 may as well not even be there as well and just getting carried.
Still don't get what the point of holding your origin for 6 mins is in a 2-2-2. Since the first 2 will get their origin back at 5 mins. 3-3 should be the pub party standard since the first trio who bursts will have their origins up for the burst at 6 mins
if your party is bursting immediately in a 2-2-2 fashion and finishing off segments before the next bind is up you unironically should be going for the next difficulty
it's pugs on kronos, they don't even invite sub 200mil to ekaling 6 man
nobody's risking 20 minutes on those shit bosses with randos
why should I play classic after the shit they pulled with maplestory 2
i had a dream last night that i was building a cool house in minecraft and then i fell into a cave with a giant in it and it killed meand then i had another dream that someone from here was tracking the number of interracial couples they saw in maplestoryanyway gm time to twain
good heavens... guess i should be grateful that maple doesnt run on linuxgodspeed anons

How do some of you actually survive in the real world while making such a big deal over $60? Genuinely. What do you do every day when you have to decide to eat, refill your gas, or god forbid pay rent? Does it cause you this much financial burden every time? If you truly consider spending $60 to play a video game for 2 weeks that much of an issue, you probably shouldn't be playing the game anyways. Maybe go find a better job instead?I just don't understand how people will spend $60 to watch a couple of movies with popcorn for 4 hours of entertainment, $100 on a baseball game and a hot dog, or the same on a nice meal at a restaurant, yet paying $60 for what could be dozens of hours of entertainment is appalling and unreasonable? Like what is wrong with you people? Are you actually the grown adults I will be sharing this game with? It's so unbelievably embarrassing.
I rather spend those 60 bucks on other video games instead that actually deserve my money
I know most people want to jump in as early as possible, but honestly I’m fine waiting the extra two weeks. I work in tech (With adult money) and I’ve spent this kind of money on games before, so the price itself isn’t really the issue for me. I just prefer letting other people make the mistakes first. By the time I start, there will be updated guides, people will have figured out what actually works, what looked good on day one but turned out to be bad, and generally there’ll be way more information to work with. I’d rather wait two weeks than put a bunch of time into something and realize later that I made a bad choice that could’ve easily been avoided. And I also don’t think there’s enough content in the game for two weeks to create some massive gap that I’ll never be able to catch up on. People starting on October 6th get to discover everything first. I’ll let them do the beta testing for me
I'm not going to sign up for two weeks early when I'll barely have time to play anyway but will at that same time, be pressured to use my "bought" time.
>>579184220because you want towhat a silly question
>>579201667They spent all their time mapling instead of, you know, their life. Now their life achievements are stuck on various servers so they can't even afford $60 for classic. SAD!
just tier up already you rigger i don't have infinite fauximiliars
You feel pressured because $60 is a lot of money to you. For me, it’s no different from buying a $60 game and playing it casually for two weeks.
do newfags actually pay for games? LOL
Yeah, people with money generally pay for things. I understand why that concept sounds new to you.
a fool and his money are easily parted
And yet you're here parting with your time for free to monitor how I spend money ;)
we'll see how far it can get you took me 3 weeks to hit 70 on chinams playing 40-50 hr a week so if you're not 70 by launch ill just ks you
numapler hyperoptimized gigagrinder putting the nostalgiamaxxed pay2play dadgamer in his place, what will happen next?
>40-50 hr a weekSo you’re spending 150 hours to beat my $60. I think I got the better deal ;)
But the gigagrinder burns out within a month and can't afford hospital bills for their poor health while the dadgamer keeps enjoying classic mushroom for another 60 years.
have mercy z@kumGΛWDs........
I hopped onto interactive for a bit out of curiosity as I had an old character there and is my impression that you need discord to play there accurate? Party recruit has been empty the times I checked it and selling cubing service (a decent income source for newer players) and procuring frenzy service is done through server discords which are invite only.
Unlike reboot, nobody uses the party recruit and joins guilds / discords for recruitment mostly because it seems to have been a trend carried over from when the population was around 1/3th the current size pre-merge. If you're planning on selling cubes you should definitely join a market discord though, but in order to do that you'll probably have to join a guild in general because all of the imposter scams popping up again has the market on edge.
btw, nuplers willingly leaving 20 year accounts to become level 1 again says ClassiChads offer something numaple's billions of lines cannot :)
>>579217440>procuring frenzy service is done through server discords which are invite onlyevery time i learn more about reg it seems more absurd. there's a feature that's core to the whole server and it's only available to a bunch of legacy players who sell it in their private communities? this shit would not fly in any other game, in fact i doubt it would even fly in kms.
literally any good guild in any server requires that you have discord for ooc communication ur just a loser
all the angry chinese and brazilian hordes are already planning to ks founders on sight til they log out so the founder pack is just temporary protection
>too lazy to ks founders himself>outsources his seethe to imaginary chinks and brsThe f2p revolution is going great :)
>>579219221yeah i don't think they get how big of a gap those two weeks will give founders
>be zakchad>play as much as I want whenever I want>let SEA farm for me as I sleep>pretend to be a dad gamer and lure seething msguppies>ks them back with godlike statsgaaaawdamn i cannot wait to beat you up with mushroom power :)
>>579219031It's not really 1:1 but it reminded me a lot of the TFT discord server for Path of Exile, since the game's tools were lacking, a lot of trading was done out of the game with a vouch system in place.
>>579219164guild discord is where you hang out with your guildies, you are in a discord for some guy whose cock you will have to suck regularly for as long as you play the game simply because he happened to be around at the right time and you will never have the opportunity to get to the same position no matter how much you grind or how much you spend even if he stops playing the game entirely. the fact that you not only think this is normal but actually defend it means you are beyond mindbroken and have given up any hope of the developers ever addressing such an egregiously unfair element of the game. you've simply accepted your place in the permanent underclass serving your betters so you're clearly a lost cause.
>>579219516there's going to be like a handful maybe 10 founder racers who will burn out in a month and quit and the rest will be clueless dadgamers easy pickings KS till log out
>bro already gave up on the žakumGΔWD matchup and coping with his revenge fantasy to literal who's that’ll quit before nexon even patches the harassmentAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I just remembered an artist that does really pretty commissions but they cost $150 each. I might commission her for a sfw piece, but it'd take even more from the $500 surprise bpot unicube fund. I guess Inkwell hasn't really earned it lately though.
the bpot uniqubes are scam or so ive heardbut also i cant think of a better way to roll for 6l on ur wse
0-4 i purchase 1000 vestiges of erion for ten billion mesos so that i can 20 star my secondary tonight and slap a new high cute power score on the wall before title goes away5-9 mmmmm maybe dont do that because i get 65 a day for free anyway and im not pushing any bosses rn
>>579201667It's a "free to play" game, that you're supposed to be able to access without spending, with the option to be nickeled and dimed afterward in exchange for some cosmetics or advantages. It was such a lucrative business model, capable of extracting far more than the cost of a game out of players, that even subscription-based and single-purchase games started incorporating microtransactions so they could double dip from their playerbase. And now addicted subhumans defend it, like the companies weren't making enough money already.That's not even getting into the digital casinos like maplestory that are constantly testing how high they can raise the price of pixels before their customers walk away. Korea started moving in the opposite direction thanks to their constant RNG scandals, removing gambling in favor of pseudo-subscription passes, but gMS has kept both, and at higher prices than the koreans pay.
>>579228509it's a massive scam yeah the last time i bought $500ish with a combination of the 100b i had on hand and $200. i did hit three non-useless lines but the best was just a dmg line on the wep and the others were worthless +1 lines. i really want a 3l m att bpot but i doubt i will ever be that lucky.
Plenty of people played MS in the mid 2000s and were kids who couldn't get stuff like pets, NX, etc. the classic server will give them a chance to pretend they're experiencing the same game but this time with pocket money to spend.
um we serve maples here bwo
cute gif thank you i'll take it
uhm please you guys don't fighwt
no FRICK you
wdf dont do that to hero-chan

>>579229904
>>579231313

Dont all 3 of those have canon boyfriends? Why would you wife them?
ren wife
>>579201667its not amount the money retard, its the principle of it, its a fresh launch mmo, paid early access should not be a thing, every single person should be able to jump in and play at launch, feel free to spend as much money as you want on cosmetics or other bullshit, no one will care
>no one will care
I FORGOT TO REGISTER FOR THIS HOUR'S CHAMPION BWEHHH
sex with double roros...
i didnt forget im blackpilling a little because i went 1-2 last round and now im in the grind fields trying to find some +3s before i go backaccording to the amount of legion buffs i have left ive trained 16 hours since weekly reset which sounds like a lot but also the game was down thursday and i did 7 ctene alts of bosses

guh
gwo doesnt hodling them make them unluckier
is there any up to date guide about starting maplestory in 2026?
they're in the #faq-guide-navigation channel yea
>>579247885Just wait for classic like everybody else mang
>>579247868they devalued so i got lazy opening them...
>boom 4 rein lux earrings on the first tap to 18 in a row>last spare jumps to 21 in a handful of tapsthis game sometimes
>>579248230i looked at classic footage but the game seems slow as fuck compared to what i have seen in modern maplestory
carl in minecwaft
>>579250067
WHO IS THAAAAAT
>finally a holy roro>Unique it>if all dices roll...it's over for me...
it's a roro eat roro world out there
i would eat a holy roro out probably
thats a square steel rectangle in the thinnest simulacrum of a cat you cannot have sex with it in any way resembling sex
>pretending to care about the game so the general doesnt dielol
It's not fair...there's only a week left and either lighting roro or normal roro wont be able to participate, unless this last week covers both of them
where there's a will there's a way
*puts a hand on your le shoulder*this week had two types and none elementsnext week can have two types and none elements too (or none types and two elements)
the game gave me 3 robo roros and no robos in sight this is some evil shit
>>579253231bet on lightning/machineit just makes sensethe downside is there will be a drastically higher number of good roros participating
I'm so HEKING ready
i #spent on erion because sf and mfc made me mad
i got deluxe burger n curly fries + 3 steak tacos from a diner too full to do anything but lay in bed
there's a place called rallys (also known as checkers in some places) and they make burgers with a really good mushroom (maplestory reference!!!!) sauce and sometimes me and my dad would get lunch there and eat in his big red truck when we went to work
>>579253231this week was double type, next will probably be double element so lightning/none
are chibis sexy
who is this...
>>579258651umm, anon? there is literally an implied penetration from the cum underneath there
wtf I can lock gliding and make avenger fun...
>>579258904if u lock gliding u are a retard and a noob its really not that hard to just double tap
demons are toxic...
i lock gliding for mobbing and unlock it for bossing...
Im not sure I understand what classic is supposed to be. It's not a full recreation of the launch game, as there are pretty significant changes to formulas and skills. Do you think it will fill its role as a comfy game to grind while other MMOs go through dry patches of content? What is the general hope for classic anyway? I do really appreciate being able to play a version of maplestory with significantly less powercreep, even if it's easier than the OG.
>>579261660But I like to double tap jump...
if you're not double tapping jump into glide for faster speed you're playing demon wrong and should just quit and make a hayato
wtf cool trick...
>>579261803classic will be destroyed in a matter of weeksmodern turbo sweats will be level 70+ in the first weekbotters and rmt will ruin the economy in less than 1 monthboomer dads will say buying mesos from bots saying it is a good thing because it saves them time and their a busy adult with kids jobs etcnexon will add passes and p2w in every corner of the gameif you want old school maple vibes id just play chronostory on mplaestory worlds, way less faggotry and no p2w and boomer dad retards
>>579261965oh i thought u were disabling glide for easier double jump (which is retarded)
>>579258651whos the artist doing all these lewd commissions xD
why am i getting 3 set eternal effect if i only have 2 pieces equipped?
>>579263503old byung kim or something like that. 99% sure it's only meso comms for that guy as of now though
huge
>>579261803It's meant to be old school but with better class balance, and it does deliver on that in some areas, but a lot of the new skills are so poorly thought out. The real issue is that the game is just going to be bots farming mesos for paypigs.
>>579267617gene weapon?
>>579270613i thought you needed to wear 3 pieces before it activated, since if you wear 2 piece CRA you don't get the cra 3 set with gene wep
>>579270737the weapon is part of the set for eternals, so it's not applying any special effect
>>579270737u believe a lot of plainly false things for which we dont correct u because ur not paying us to but mostly because ur rude
>>579271279yea cuz ur a bitch ass faggot
we just keep winning
>discord repost
what? my win?I don't use d*scord
yeah i doubt thats yours
well, I don't think you'll find the same image with the exact hand location
damn i just won too
gratz broon all seriousness.. you just cropped it
no i found the same image with the same hand location
They need to release a real classic 1:1 og server alongside Pozzsic with no founders pack

Do I have to watch frieren to understand the event?
cucked out of 10 wins by a mediocre lineup that just rolled ridiculously high each round this event SUCKS
>>579307048le yea

But i dont wanna watch the gay elf.
*shakes my ass, hypnotically*you want to watch the elf animeeee oooo you really want to watch iiiit
frieren would be cuter as a boy
i need blueberry farm real bad bros
>>579299249Damn im like 99% this vid is going to kill classic. I just woke up and the whole vibes changed to a mask off moment
>>579316160>mask offEveryone knew Togain was a faggot
>>579319096After watching the togain video, I have to agree with what he proposed about nexon as a company. I think they are rage baiting the community to drive up engagement. It’s calculated, cold and manipulative. They might change things up later and do a faked “we listened to our players” or worse, they also just might ignore the outrage from the community.Regardless, it does show they really don’t care about us as players, they don’t communicate with the players. It was all about the money they can get out of our pockets.
i hate mystic frontier
>>579325184>Regardless, it does show they really don’t care about us as players, they don’t communicate with the players. It was all about the money they can get out of our pockets.this much was obvious from the start. maplestory is not the passion project of an indie developer nor is it the work of some "la creatividad" like kojima or miyazaki who have some autistic vision they want to follow. this game is a corporate product, and not just any corporate product but one produced in one of the most soulless nations on earth. the only reason this game and others like it are able to get away with the kind of practices they routinely engage in is because the developers are very good at making them addictive, similar to how social media algorithms are fine-tuned to get people to scroll away endlessly. if you thought they somehow cared about you then you're just a gullible moron. the only winning move is not to play, but if you can't do that then at least be as demanding and difficult of a cash cow as possible that only accepts the finest grass. don't fund garbage or all you'll ever get in the future is more garbage because they'll think that's what you want.
>>579325184spoilers, retard:no company cares about their customers
>>579299249AI badNexon BADhe's moving to runescape now
>>579333708As if RS has a huge yt scene, or isn't already so saturated by this point that he'll break into a new niche.
>>579334004he already made ultra niche videos so I don't think he cares about views that much
