kill all trannies in this general

Bro, you forgot about Kinoplex in cw
AGAIN

finally a class made for me...

>>530243236
i saw someone using this pic but it's of female hero i think on reddit as their avatar, is it one of u guys

>>530244037
that pic ur talkin about is a sticker in the hero classcord im pretty sure
could be literally anybody, pretty popular class

I miss old lotus...

hows adele

starting to realize i won't be getting diamond cw...

nothing much whats adele with you...

so i recently started joining boss parties
what's the mentality of people wanting to party when they have the power to solo pretty easily

>>530247832
micromanaging

>>530250774
on reboot you gotta check everyones cp and gear to see if its a troll party or not because sometimes they get their friend to join in and put on better gear before the boss so only they + their high CP friend can get green dot and get to blink while trying to blue dot the other party members who join at regular cp

>>530252619
huh i never even thought of that
although im primarily only grouping on a mule to get arcanes, would be nice to win a pitch
i'll keep that in mind

>>530255643
there is also the opposite end of the spectrum where you get a "Savior complex" person with high CP suddenly joining what looks to be a struggle run by all means looking at how everyone is like below or min CP
so you get cucked out of the enjoyment of a struggle run because some guy thinks he is "helping" by one shotting thru every hwill test while the whole party is trying to blue/green dot lmao

soloprog bros we won

If they're going to keep making classes, they should expand link skills slots

dave waiting room

>CHADssic Maple still not released

You should be playing CHADlenger World while you wait.

>>530236641 (OP)
when are these niggers releasing violet cubes. i lib in the next couple weeks

woaw they made a whole ass event about that place in maplestory with mysterious path 3 this is crazy bwos
http://www.maplesea.com/updates/view/v243_NDP/

who the hell asked for th-
>finally a way to retrace a kanna's treasure without gachaing
o-okay i did

>Champion Insignia's stats will not be applied in boss map until v245.
So msea won't get legion champ stats for 2 whole patches???

hope gms doesnt pull this crap, thats ridiculous

>>530286439
wait msea still had the old version where you only got kanna ring from the quest?

>To better meet the needs of MapleStorySEA players, the entire Star Force environment is undergoing a revamp. In consideration of various aspects, such as the enhancement costs in current areas where enhanced Star Force is needed, any equipment with 23 stars or more will automatically receive a bonus of 2 additional stars on patch day to be able to meet expectations even after the revamp.

Maplesea is getting scammed out of 2 stars then? If i recall KMS had 24 -> 28, but in msea case it'll be 24 -> 26

seabwo... we lo-
nah who am i kidding i don't even have a 23*

do Seages even have enough spares for 30 stars?

legion champion is useless in gms unless they tweak the system to make the requirements less prohibitively high to match our reality
95%+ of players doesn't even have a proper legion main, let alone champ ready mules which is the entire point of the system
they can keep postponing it until 2030 for all i care

hell, even kms devs stopped caring about it already
it is just a toy for bored 0.001% ultra whales currently

>>530292605
>Some players already have 23 and 24 star equipment, they accepted the huge inefficiency of the system and still went ahead with it. So with these big changes to Star Force, they definitely needed to adjust those existing items to keep it fair for them. Existing 23 star items will be changed to 25 stars and existing 24 star items will be changed to 28 stars
yep, they're getting robbed

>>530296458
legion champ is designed exactly for the 5% of top players who are hitting walls with increasingly expensive upgrades on mains. it isn't supposed to be for casuals.

Ok that roguelike maple shit on worlds looks fun

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84c8jIodULg
he's talking about this

with post Ascent skills and 30 SF changes i think legion champ will be easier, grandis mp will be giving at least 50-70bil exp per run, making 260-270 a month instead of 3 now
but it's still a nothingburger unless they keep expanding+3 slots every year, anyone can catch up otherwise and the early adopters don't really get a power spike from it and will only be strong for a quarter/half a year tops since you can't outgrind the power creep anymore

that's it, I'm moving to roguelike maple

we didnt get sol erda weekly
we are not getting no changes
ascent skills are being delayed by a (at least) month just because of overseas classes instead of delaying theirs only
unfortunately both reddit and this general is too retarded to even conceptualize this

>crystals are permanently stuck at the cra era because redditors are fucking retarded and complain about everything
this is also an issue
ctene or at least hlomien mules are the norm now but noooooo gms is stuck at 2020

unfortunately /msg/ is just too low iq to actually discuss anything
only thing this general is capable of doing is inane discord nonsense spam and image dumping

sneed erda weekly was a sea change that they didn't import here because reg frags are tradable but in sea they're untradable

won't the starforce revamp make CRA better than eternals again cause you can just tap those to 24* easily with infinite spares

we discuss it all the time just not with you because the only english words you know are only useful for expressing bad faith and /v/ so we're gonna let you talk to yourself and keep the real discussion to places where discussion can be had

same reason to go 21 abso over 19 arcanes

wait the patch is all the way on 16th and not this week? wtf...

>>530304315
All in.

>>530307235
Invite me to trannycord

the reggers are gone

12 ctene bulers on heroic -> 12ctene bulers on reg

this is what killed off the reggers for good, even if they spend the rest of their days making bulers the bulers on heroic will still be eating better and they have no response to it

if you want to talk about stuff then just talk about things instead of sneeding over people not reaching the same conclusions as you

i just woke up you were probably talking to crabshooter thinking it was me

talking to everyone kinda

yeah everyone here posts on /v/ and in bad faith

get me out of this whacky cw prison
I want dave RIGHT NOW

Surely we'll get the inki note this week, right?

im gonna 270 after weekly reset with the new 3x buffs and high myountain and mpe and then im gonna take the hwite cubes from hitting 20k and send my secondary and emblem bpots to the moon with them (and send the legion pots home for some free levels) and then tackle hlucid with the gains (im already very close to clearing p3 and even if i wasnt getting white cubes i'll be 3 and 4 set superior gollux this week) and then after that i dont think im afraid of any of the bosses because i main dark souls parrying man and can go the whole 30 rounds with any of the bosses left to kill probably
there will be exp gains in dave the diver and just doing my mcdailies to bag 275 with and i think thats all i'll need for the challenger medal

the patch preview better be pure fire with the lvl 160 pottable badge, 1000 frags per week from ROD2, 99k adv vouchers from dave....or else

>>530311086
Of course. This week's sunny sunday is still listed in the patch notes.

wtf cubes dont even stack on reg still? lol what a TINY inventory size

those are all cubes i got from doing frito portals ive got points in him they're nice little breaks when im not in rune exp
cubie wubies from bosses killed on the same day stack just fine

oh started copying me by putting points into frito portal now im not showing anything anymore

>>530319404
Me in the top left.

Cleared hard Lucid with my 2 buds with 0,04s remaining on the clock. Did chaos gloom too before that. Now the arcane boxes are going to start rolling in! Getting closer and closer to doing vHilla.

damn cuckworlders are weeks behind main worlders?

thats right darkkadaj im only a few weeks behind your main im gonna solo hard verus hilla soon! on this character i made 3 weeks ago we're gonna be at the same progression level i can't wait to see you there

im going to sleep then probably wake up and ace black mage in one run

its only 2:42 pm there but thats okay growing 35 y/o babies need their nappy naps i'll bet you're all tuckered out from lunchie and playtime thats okay we'll be training until you're back!

just hit emerald on CW

gonna hit 270 this week bros

i cant wait for classicchads to overrun the general and force all the trannies to crawl back to their discord
on that note which qol do you want and not want on classic?

>>530322219
my hyperburner is already done with hvhilla so you are weeks behind i will just be sleeping waiting for yall to catch up one day

I want class rebalance so that 90% of the game isn't just mages, night lords and dark knights.

>>530325787
right! your main was a hyper burn, i'm a hyper burn too! its my turn to get to where its taken you 1.5 years in maybe, 6 weeks? we'll see! but you should really get to your nappy nap, you don't want to be cranky later when you die out in p2

>>530326475
my hyperburn max that i made last month ago already killed hard vhilla in party on week 2 or 3 and you are going to spend the next 3 months catching up to me on cuckworld

Why does this general seem so deranged and hateful towards each other. Feels like it's not just shitposting but actually hating that the other servers exist. Unable to fathom that people play less or more than you.
Has it always been this way?

I dunno I'm just waiting for len

im pretty much done with my hyperburner max i guess i can start working on my 6th legion champ now while cuckworlders are still gunning for the vhilla clear for 4 months idk

>>530324890
I don't like classic, so I hope they eventually add real updates in the future

early bb with prebb maps when

>>530319404
why are aquaroad mobs in grandis, this is breaking my immersion

world merge bro

lil nibba hasn't immersed enough into maple's story fr

why do we have 4 community managers but literal 0 communication? what the fuck is going on, this must be some kind of money laundering

so why are there two reset days anyway
why not have everything reset on one day

there's only 1 reset day in kms

dont tell him
no one but me itt can read patch notes

someone go make a classic shilling thread on /v/
there used to be one constantly up but did the dude give up

We gaming now. It's crazy how much harder this is in a party. I die out in like 10 minutes in a party but can min clear when solo.

>>530336680
what's the point when it's not even out

>tfw still sub20k challenger points
bros im getting worried

anyone still sub 20k can't reach challenger anymore

I got fucking owned by a level 40 boss in 2 hits

Maybe i should learn how to use scrolls

>>530354961
why did they kill her game...

kobe makin mvp black zakum on stream

pice of cuckworld sheite

cool

max out cernium lv11 with the symbol selectors, or spread them to others for quicker levels?

no one actually likes lucid

i like lucid
i just happen to like one of my characters even more

regshitters btfo

those bosses r cooked chat

boring pay2win

>>530360348
thats some cool tech anon grats + i love you ignore the mentally ill spammer guy go get some bossussy

lil bitch bought philos lmao

>>530361338
Looool he cant kill any bosses without pay2win. So pathetic.

its been long enough to get enough coins
they are selling for like 15bil rn so ye prob a waste but whatever idgaf about selling it im proggin 'ere

scarlet ring is philos only tho

500mil in ah, CAUGHT

>ring not bought
yep, swiping alright

there are more ways to get scarlet rings, and there are enough for everyone. i don't think you play the game?

how come no one on heroic has it if you can still get it? check mate

>>530362190
is this the challenge world or regular world auction house though? why would people sell a philos item for 100mil if you cant get it from anything else anymore?

https://forums.maplestory.nexon.net/discussion/18895/scarlet-ring
looks like it doesn't give the bonus anymore and its only visual so you wasted your money

oh no no no regbros
this can't be happening

heroic won

is 2 lines of boss better than 1 boss 1 ied for secondary

I kinda miss maple story 2
https://lith.cat/

>>530365843
no u want 2L att or 1L att + boss

idk if im getting a sup ring or pendant first i guess i'll see if a kanna ring or dom pendant goes 21 first then i can transfer it

>accessory DMT is all the way aug 9
aiieee we are hardstuck on hlucid for another month cwbros

benny doesn't know the heroic dom/daybreak transfer into sup tech and already starred his to 14 lol nooob

DarkKadaj won

well I have the dmg but not the web cleansing juice for hwill, hmm lets go try something else I guess and come back with m3/m4
cgloom maybe

>>530360161
back to your 0.5%/hour grind reboot jeet. you won't be able to do baldrix if you don't.

>can one shot sunken ruins
why the fuck i was doing those cuck maps

Why did it flop so bad bros

all later updates and western-oriented changes were trash, like the main quest

on heroic cw should i just stick to 17* sup gollux or try to get 21-22 ?

are you going to use fodder or are you going to be a retard and boom your superiors

>>530381534
Its true
The main quest giving yoj tons of xp and being space bar spam shit ruined tbe game flow

i don't have transfer fodder for earring so i might have to yolo

it flopped because maplestory2 is not maplestory at all
should have tried to be its own thing instead of pretending to be maplestory
of course people wouldn't adapt, original maplestory is too unique, and maplestory2 couldn't capture its feeling at all

it flopped because it lewded the maples

monthly xbm went good its a 15 minute fun run with 4 people
we got dropped a mirror for tim our i/l who didnt have one yet
wild that i/l can just slow down bm so he basically cant move, you could say its a cool class

is it safe to say that maple has more players than losted ark in west now

yes

piece of black mage shit

blacked mages matter bigot

>hexa booster doesn't add extra mobs to map it replaces the spawns of map with some of the booster mobs
WRRRRRRYYYYYYYYY
FUCK YOU

got a sup belt on cw today boys let's freaking goooo

If
>interactive
Cringe
>Heroic
Based

hyperionbros eating good

based
we won

Reminder to my fellow /msg/ers to start Ride or Die on your main. Last time it locked you into the first one to start it and you could not change it. Surely you do not expect that to be fixed this time, right?

what class would a scar of darkness look good on

soul master

i hope this weeks 30% off is 60% for an hour again

>tfw didnt have dark elemental toggled all this time

Not sure if msea players pushed back or it was just a mistake, but it seems they aren't getting as cucked in this patch.

they are still massive cucks to continue to play in msea and accepting the sf "compensation" however.

i wuv my new phone wallpapers

pno + akechi revamp is based tho

I saw a guy 268 in luxe sauna. He had no pots on emblem/secondary and rare pots on his rings. He also did not do AF/Grandis dailies as his symbols were low level. He’s leveled entirely off of sauna and maybe monster park. No chance he does high mountain with no stats. Sauna is crazy pay to win.

ok but that guy won't be able to get challenger so who cares

>>530411881
Pay 2 win doesn't have the stats to solo nvhilla at lvl 275 to hit diamond. what's point <_<

if he's not winning who cares honestly, still gotta make honest gains

>>530398876
I'm gonna start it on my Sia because there surely will be a bug to exploit

what do you guys think RoD 2 will be?
surely it won't be another boss rush right?

don't care what they make of it
i care about free cors
i have hands so i'm fine with more cancer boss
but give me cors in return

It will be black mage but with kazax challenges

kazaxstan kazaxstan
you very nice place

patch preview today surely bwos

>>530432332
patch previews are normally wednesday, its still tuesday.

>>530432894
damn

ok but where the inkwell note?

pearse of inkwell shaet

blaze wizard stronk

>>530447305
>carry my friends
>help them when I can
>they quit just a month after
It's not fair...

>>530452679
Carrying someone isn't helping them, it just rushes them through the fast part of the game and they get bored when they hit slower progression as it feels much worse.

Best thing to do is just give them advice on how to clear bosses/run a struggle on weaker characters with them.

>carry all of msgers
>they turn you into thread villain for 100+ threads

>>530453232
It's over... I'm alone now

that banquet afk exp is actually kind of ok
it's like a whole level at 27X over the course of the event

at what cp can you solo hluwill and ctenes?

30-40mil, for min cut runs, 50-60mil for 15-20min runs
couldnt tell u if its different in heroic

what is fs

>>530465257
firestarter, its the 100% burning on ur map thingy

>been grinding a ton in CW
>try to grind on main again
>exp bar literally just doesn't move
>don't feel like grinding anymore

>grind all 30 broom maid exp bursts, arcane dailies, monster park, boss dailies, and profession progression across main, cw main, and sia
>already burnt out when there is still 2 months left
god damn this shit was more tolerable when I only worried about my single main

>do frag dailies twice
>log off
yep, I'm ready for Dave

>>530478179
also grandis and erda's request which is kinda bull. just make it 10k kills and a weekly that gives the same amount as before

we went west, that means no seagger content or perks

i'll show yall how its done in cuckworld season 2

SEA has the worst monetization but the best events change my mind

Can I have a uhhhhhhhhhhhh
Inki note please

i think im in love with my TB bros
what do i do

what i still need is
>weekly gollux, 7 entries before going on cooldown and resetting
>weekly CPQ, 1 run x7 coins awarded
>weekly commerci, just can use up 700 energy instead of 100 daily
>sol erda/frag weekly
>arcane dailies turned into 700 mobs weekly but x7 exp and symbol rewards

7 gollux runs in one day so i can kill myself immediately instead of coping daily

you will play daily for at least 30 minutes and you will like it.

the grind literally never ends even if u full 22 then u gotta full 22 drop gear then full 22 mules then full 22 mules drop gear

>>530484747
nobody needs 22 drop gear

yeah thats why im here

>>530484845
how u gonna afk in carcion with sub 100mil in drop gear like a NOOOOOOOB

Go West and its consequences have been a disaster for global maplestory

the grind isn't supposed to end, that's the whole point innit

that's IT
this is the third time someone leaves before the third cpq run
why this keeps happening?

it was the smell
take a shower first

but I thought pirates were stinky?

im getting these (in ah)((for cheap))

Bros I wasted all my denaros unlocking up to lith harbor only to realize it gives less denaro per voyage

me on the bottom mid

Kinoplexbros, 15/0/15/15 is not looking too good, I don't think it will be this week either

u unlock dreadnaught
sw gears are so underrated
unless u got 22 berk and eyepatch u better get on the grind gay boy

>>530493014
pitched are obsolete with 30*, better to go 25 sw

>>530492187
don't all chat emotes expire

>>530495164
nah I still got my otter prayge emote

>>530493027
What a SLUT

With this silly trick (and ele wand 5 with almost perf TMA) i have doubled my money on legends.

anyone else feeling conflicted on their cw class choice? like idk if i wanna keep playing my CW after transfer

>tfw have to constantly look at hayato cutting the screen or turning the light off in game for an fma

I don't know why I'm investing so much in cw if the next one is going to be ez 270

you psyoped yourself into believing burning out before ride or die 2 and night troupe was a smart idea

>>530502068
same bro
think im gonna give up on diamond unless m3m4 is crazy for my class or something

>skip cookedworld
>no burnout

>hes not playing comfyworld

I keep going just for Kinoplex

31mil combat power, plat broke rip
vip would do it

>5k points left from checkin
>might only be able to kill hluwill + cgloom (5.5k points)
fuck i might not even make it to diamond

wappers won

all I gotta do is thug out 275 and I should be on track for diamond
question is will I kill myself first

im gonna kill myself cuz i picked cont4 instead of ror4 and now i cant finish off bosses

oh wait my math is shit i only need that for challenger i can diamond pretty convincingly without 275

im still sub 20k so no way im reaching diamond on my 268 bowmaster

you should just need hluwill+1 right

i read somewhere the check-ins stop on aug 27

>>530397556
back to your indian peasant server ranjeet

>>530434058
hate chinkwell. he won't do anything to fix reg problems without gating it behind a lootbox

what's that? you're dying of cancer? 4500 NX for a 1/500 chance of getting chemotherapy.

why are reggas the ones complaining
heroic is effectively abandoned and we never got any actual changes

Inkwell is just putting everything into classic

Wow

https://www.reddit.com/r/Maplestory/comments/1lum8ou/psa_i_made_a_whackbeanz_extension_chrome_firefox/

pretty nice for managing champs, finally dont have to open up incognito to put in champ flames (and re-input every time)

Flame score display is also nice to see

The cutscene skip bug has been in the game now for 7 months. Do we think it is ever going to be addressed again? They never updated it from the "known issues" for v.255 and we're about to be moving to v.261 and they simply stopped mentioning it a long time ago. Usually bugs don't really change too much and we can work around them, this one being no different, but it is really inconvenient when someone who doesn't know skips a cutscene and sends P3 Kaling on a war path. (That's just one example. Playing hide n seek with lucid cuz she wont stop attacking sucks too)

someday, I'll be as strong as amogus

enough time has passed that anyone playing on a new account (post ride or die) won't have the bug but anyone who played during ride or die still has it

Heroic won

darkkadaj the winner

m3/m4 this week?
or next?

yes

I would've blamed Sia if we don't get them but I remembered they made the erda link just to not bother with it

Wasn't the game supposed to be down for maint already? Not this week then

sia is going to be the only one without Ascent skills,
no way GMS is making custom Ascent skills for it after what happened to jett
this class is a literal pay2win cash grab abandonware

if next week then better, i still havent maxed out my sol erda on my second main

it's like we are in platos cavo surrounded only by darkness and only inkwell can shine the light...
the silence is deafening...

why do we have 5 community managers?

players complained of poor communication so nexon hired more

but they don't communicate anything...

we'll hire a sixth cm soon, please be patient

soul revamp when why is my vellum as strong as balldicks
arcane bosses should have a higher soul tier, and then grandis should have higher than that
grandis bosses just get mu gong effect idk + higher stats
kms's gene pass is flooding kms with 3% atk souls of ur choice (commanders) and high tier souls r worthless, def could see them doing something

they aren't doing shit
you should be thankful their art department even bother making new soul sprites for new bosses
because the dev team is going to keep just adding an extra line to the old mag tier's table until the end of the game

sia at worst just ends up being like hayato or something I can't see jett happening again in the current state of the game
might be some delays but it's going to be playable and not abandonware

*copy pasting an extra line

also I wouldn't be surprised if sia and mo xuan already had their ascent skills done and it was hayato and kanna that didn't which is why they're pushing an update for them soon, that's probably something planned a couple months in advance

gms will delay all ascent skills just for sia and neither this general nor reddit will complain about it (something else happens and everyone immediately forgets)

we are getting stealth patched ascent skills next week already hype

I'm just happy Kain is getting the triple 3 second i-frame per 1 ascend use lmao. So it's going to be 27 seconds of Iframe for 3 ascend used.

DarkKadaj won BIG

oh yeah changseop must've made one in hyperburn
burst is getting a 50% off reduction from one hit ko attacks as well in 2min changes eating real good

does clearing nvhilla in 10~12min means i'm already ready for hvhilla

>>530574219
She has exactly double the health so yes but do you want to deal with a 20-25 minute boss fight, potentially longer since the elixir only has a 15 minute duration

>>530574694
thanks, may as well give it a go

/v/hilla

if she was the real /v/hilla she'd turn into cunny instead of a graying hag

uoh hag cunny

is kinoplex still recruiting?

>>530591097
yeah bro come just make sure to do culvert

No patch preview yet, seems like they don't consider the next patch worthy enough to give one a week in advance like they usually do for big winter/summer patches

its not looking good bros...

INKI NOTE
WHEN??
PLEASE HIRE MORE CMs SINCE CLEARLY THEY'RE NOT ENOUGH

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X3q5cfpGO0A

it is honestly disgusting how inkwell won't stop wanking himself in these update cards

PATCH OUT

https://www.nexon.com/maplestory/micro-site/stargazer

so inkwell gonna tell us anything
theres literally one thing we dont know anything about and dude didnt show us anything about it

nooooo
I WANT THE NOTE
I WANT MY FRAGS

>no legion champion
I sleep

sorry americans you guys suck at bossing and all of you only have cra mules
prease understan

I'm not ready to see people with dakis everywhere...

i already have 65k set aside im so ready

everyone whined about legion champ being too hard so inkwell thought you didn't want it

it's just delayed to the next patch like JMS did but despite the fact that GMS has 4 CMs they have no communication skills whatsoever so they won't tell us that or give any roadmap.

totally fine with not having cw anytime soon
literally no reason to have it in gms
help people actually progress first

>cw
brainfart
*legion champ

just because you are retarded doesn't mean others can't use the system

i am waiting until someone itt asks where sias m3 and m4 are so i can call him a retard

happy reset

no drops this week either

no one cares about flop the diver
flop or die 2
there better be a balance patch today

um why is sia not in the masteries video??

retard

adv exp coupon

dave the diver gives like 20k advanced tickets, its kinda big

best bang for the buck levels to use on
>263
>264
>269
>273
>274

wasn't it supposed to be 100k

>the full event doesn't even give a level at 277
why is the game STILL so stingy on levels
everything up to 285 should be easy and smooth by now
im starting to miss wonki dude for sure would have done some exp crunch by now (for free)

total advanced exp coupons are only 9999, not 20k
LMAO

Nothing for Sia in the M3/4 video, The Jettification has already begun.

>9999
massive flop
guess i'm grabbing my m3/m4 and hibernating again then

>new pollo fritto especia
>gold box rare gem gives 3k mobs worth of exp (no exp modifiers)
>gold box epic gem gives 6k mobs worth of exp
>gold box unique gem gives 12k mobs worth of exp
>gold box legendary gem gives 24k mobs worth of exp
>diamond boxes give 10x the exp of gold box gems
huh not bad
given you have 500% increased exp just getting a gem is a minimum of 500 mobs worth of exp and by the very rare chance you get legendary gem from diamond box thats like an entire waps worth of mobs

m3/m4 winners
SS (gets 5th job skill hexa)
>hero, dawn warrior, aran, cannon, kinesis
S (gets whole kit boosted)
>pathfinder, evan, zero, cadena, kain, corsair, adele, ark
A (gets good boosts)
>NL, shad, bishop, f/p, bowmaster, wind archer, night walker, thunder breaker, blaze wiz, mihile, blaster, khali
B (meh/decent boosts)
>paladin, bucc, i/l, lumi, demon slayer, demon avenger, mech, xenon, kaiser, angelic buster, ilium, lala, hoyoung
C (nothingburger)
>dark knight, marksman, phantom, shade, merc, wild hunter, battle mage, lynn, hayato, kanna

and you look like this

>good boosts
we actually got nerfed lol

>>530619818
mihile? honestly the only 1 i have no idea about

>classes effected by GMS attack speed that get a 20% fd boost from m3/m4 in B

I dont expect u to know every class but your still retarded

>>530619995
the only ones i legit dont know are ho young and mihile, which ones are u talkin about?

chart based on this vid
https://youtu.be/o29nSmv2hns

should i reroll mains if my m3m4 are bad

check their performance post-ascent before making a decision

i/l or lynn? i got some spare absolabs to move over

>performance of ascent
insignificant

let me innnn

let me len

>another week of 11/0/15/15
Kinoplexbros... how are we going to achieve the 15/15/15 dream?

half the niggas either quit or didn't even contriboot

>270 with no culvert
grim

Spent 4 hours at 7F today grinding.
Maple Legends bulls were owning

>Tfw not really sure what skill build to go on my bucc because demo, st, orb, barrage are all as important

i'd do 20 barrage, 11 st, 11 orb, 11 demo, max barrage, max demo, max st, max orb

how much culvert score does a guild need to get in order to be 15/0/15/15?

to be in the top 20% guilds or have a total culvert score of 40k

Why is this event so stingy with the coins?
past events literally threw coins at you but this one you have to choose if you want them, like why

you get coins from the weekly
the daily coins are a noob trap

Weekly does not give enough, mag pot is like 10k and you only get 900 weekly

you get 3k a week retard

PLEASE SAY THERE IS MORE
MY CLASS REALLY NEEDS CHANGES

slime nerfed

that sucks though I won't be able to clear before test anymore

>shade

>>530633939
Orb is too good on this server after buffs
But the % per point falls off pretty hard after level 20

with maple peaking on steam recently, how big is the playerbase now compared to back then?

no way to objectively tell because there are no metrics other than steam but definitely more people than usual
games only been steadily increasing in population for years now

once classic drops, it will be double

we were getting kms updates much faster but now, we're months behind.. what went so wrong?

piece of stargazer shit

>pno revamp teleport u straight to boss room
>hp buffed from 200bil to 500bil and now cpap tier crystal
not bad

the len buffs

>>530236641 (OP)
This is what I'm looking forward to most.
Fuck modern maps.

if you like looking at dogshit maps while you level most orbis maps still look like dick and butt the mobility is just high enough most people wouldn't get bothered anymore

Shade is a useless class whose only good contribution was introducing Moonbeam and Sino. At least once they give us the Sino equips every maple can finally give pawjobs.

Is there a class that will be most in demand for maple story classic?

gracias weekly boss cubies

most classes don't have much going on yet probably depending on when this even is, if you want some kind of meta stability it'll probably be bishop dark knight and night lord

*and bowmaster

classic will be run entirely by clerics
some retards will go all out on le bossing dexless sins when there's no bossing to do
and some posers will go dragon knight because they believe spamming those old skills make them part of the oldfags club or something
but most normal players will go cleric because it will be the most comfortable training experience

str clerics wya

yeah though classic is most likely just going to be a training sim depending on when it is and if there will even be any world progression
boss performance didn't matter for a while

No test world patch previews.

No communication about major screw ups.

No meaningful communication from CMs.

No roadmap for future content.

Communications happen on Discord, a 3rd party program, before we see anything on a Nexon hosted platform.

Microsites provide zero details about events or content.

Introduce a new class but give no communication about it not being finished (only one mastery core) and no communication about its future mastery cores.

Patches have gone from long to ungodly.

Cut content time, CW, but dont properly recognize the repercussions thus making the content more strict for achieving tiered goals. (KMS stated THEIR CW was a chore for players and made improvements. Ours is worse through merit of a shorter play period.)

No news on the highly anticipated Legion Champion system.

No clarity on the plan for boss crystals, as we have skipped one half of the crystal nerf from Korea. (No, your personal speculations on crystal implementation is not a substitute for actual clarification.)

But hey, they promised better communication right?

I didn't think we would regress in communication the longer Inkwell held the reigns. It was so good for a while when the notes were released regularly explaining their intentions or limitations.

Its unreal how difficult it is for this company to write a paragraph or two to answer obvious questions.

I almost feel bad for the CMs. Like, we just hired a new one, but what the hell is their job? Sure as shit this community isnt being "managed."

>Legion Champion
>highly anticipated
lol

I got to emerld rank in cw this morning, claimed the ultimate legion growth potion in kronos, typed “agree” in the chat box to claim And recived nothing.. anyone suffering from the same issue ??

Legion champion is highly anticipated yes, most people have already finished or are close to finishing their second or third character.

let's see your third mule's black mage solo sis

>>530704492
lmao even

surely you meant hseren not BM, hseren is the soft cap for legion champ gains

m3m4 + legion champ stats should put my 2nd/3rd champ at hseren level. just waiting on release now really.

my 2nd and 3rd legion champs are ekaling ready
im hype for the extra 10% crit damage

My buler is at nkalos level can't wait for legion champ

>>530719217
we all know your main cant even beat BM bulekadaj

>>530608481
where is this from?

So, I hit 270 on cw, but I'm still mostly using the challenger gear + boss set stuff cause I've gotten ZERO luck from gollux, and ZERO luck from slime or seren.
Should I just try to double down on rolling senpaitachi to get my bosses done? Only aiming for diamond, but I'd be fine with emerald if that's all I can get. I feel like I should give up on actually clearing and just abuse practice clears.

bro your commerci?

>>530719968
Just get reinforce set, if you go for superior set, you wouldnt be able to access the full set effect till august at least

I'm in almost the exact same spot, I'm just taking some extra time to hard grind and try to make gains. Settle for reinforced and scrap together something for the last few bosses

>>530720068
I thought commerci was dead content now? I don't really know, I just remember hearing it was turned to shit because of the removal of transposing or something so I just stopped bothering, I went like 3 weeks without a single cube so 0 love lost.
>>530720274
Don't even have reinf, that's what I'm saying, solids at best after however many weeks it's been now.

how do some people in heroic cw have arcane weapons and gloves already

>>530720664
boxes.
That's it.

im ok with my A/B legion champs
still making 32bil per week

>>530720465
commerci eye and face are still good, you can't transpose them anymore (ok you still can but it's worse than before) but you can starforce them, and they're easy to get

>>530720465
you should be 1-2 weeks away from being able to buy the rein ring + pendant from the shop even if you have no drops assuming you have been doing hellux since week 1

theres a new nothingburger bug in damien i bet it'll never get fixed

be sure to join Kinoplex we wait u

the kinos are not plexing bros...

Robert will save us

i heard kinoplex doesn't even have max gskills

inshallah culvert will be run brother

im getting a double burger and a shake from culvert

cgloom down time to get the rest

i wont have enough points for challenger at this rate

can't this sauna tickets go any faster?
why are they cutting out cw time if they're not going to increase sauna exp?

oh yeah it probably would be easier to go straight for cgloom instead of hluwill wouldn't it

if you're at/near 270 rn 275 should be free as long as you don't burn out

Hello! I graduated in may and I've been trying to convince my friends to play maplestory to stay connected. I've used arguments like "Challenger's world is out and hyper burn takes you all the way to 260!" but that means nothing to them. I've used arguments like "There is an endless amount of things to do, bossing, mobbing, questing, monster collection, and more!" which they said "eh." I've tried "look how cute my character is!" and they said "y r u a gurl?" I did convince one of my friends who played as a kid to come back, they played for a week and kept dying out in CRA and quit. Another agreed to play once they saved up for a pc. I asked them how that was going and they said "negative, med school apps are expensive." I don't want my friends to drift away, they've already started moving and spreading out and I might move across the country pretty soon myself. In person things are all of a sudden really hard to do. Anyone have suggestions?

Our CMs are hard at work
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6OPJaSaGkQo

inkwell is evil, seems like he just wants to bring in new players, get them to pay up (battle passes with frags/famcards on heroic, demon slayer vac pet, sia, VIP sauna giving double the exp of previous versions), then once they bought, just fucking leave for stranded with no explanation no inkwell note no roadmap just waiting forever

trust the plan

they should get rid of down jump in classic

they should get rid of classic

they're putting ALL the resources in classic

why the autism about jumping down

if maple cant even reach 100k in steam with the OFFICIAL classic it will be a hilarious public humiliation for gmsers
mapleland reached 120k+ concurrent and artale tw reached 280k+

wait actually even if it reaches big numbers its still a massive humiliation for gmsers

that a bunch of nostalgia baited 35 year olds turned on a game to grind a couple hours before remembering it sucks? who cares

i expect at least a million on steam, all mmos are dead
time to take the throne

gay bros...its over

m bishop was killing it how dare they take his shota swagger away

his aura and love of christ,,, gone,,,

who tf plays male adele

the one and only ereklo game

"people" who think hot women with bed eyes are too "problematic"

adele doesn't have bed eyes
she's just autistic

adele doesn't want to fuck she wants to go to sleep she looks more tired than flirty

yes, women are problematic

well I have the dmg for hdark but gotta lock in a bit more, got down hlucid, webbed out of hwill again
this shits kinda free with like more dailies and stuff so whatever, i'll goon em out when I can hit diamond prob m3/m4 is enough free dmg and more symbols like odium
cslime im just gonna do with a lot more giga dmg, we'll see if I need to do hvhilla
it'd be cool to early leap out ig with my challenger medal

>tfw got too cocky and wont be getting challenger or killing hvhilla

you type a little too much diaperkidaj hes about to be at the same prog as you in five weeks where youve been stuck for almost 2 years if you're not going to kill bm you could at least not check in every 30 seconds to remind us how constantly mad you are

my only cope now is to quit while im ahead and transfer out early

i pretty much did all the maths myself and saw i would be hardstuck hluwill+cgloom once the early symbol gains ended i didn't need to waste a month on that
knew no one here is getting challenger on day 1 and i was right

I believe in bowfriend, he can probably get challenger if he doesn't get bored
all I want is diamond and I should be locked for it

i dont, actually thought he would do better, im dissapointed

benny got proven to be all talk and got humbled by cuckworld love watching his downfall

i should hb an adele

he's gonna miss on bragging rights
but at least he's leaving cw with a strong lv270 buler

nothing stronger than you can get on main world tbhon, especially reg
i was actually getting real non-prac mode no sayrams elixir no boss senpaitachi no oz ring ctene clears

i rushed hluwill+cgloom week 1 on my hyperburn max and got an arcane box drop
you gotta be a god gamer to get that not a prac mode bossing faker killer

does gollux not drop pendants anymore?

I didn't know what an ultimate legion growth pot was until I search and realized that they're useless to me that have every single class at 210+
Maybe I should just use them in Hyperion just for the lulz

okay then why didn't you just do it then
is there a point to this or is it all just to validate your fomo by saying you didn't miss out on anything

literally nothing else to do

saved all the eventslop from previous event for the hyperburnmax
going to save all the current eventslop for the late cw, leap it and bonk it to 270 get emerald in a week then transfer over

one sol erda please

>>530750175
they still give exp

is there a way to reset morning starlight

>>530757497
Rape and impregnate, in order

So whats the status on faple classic

redpill me on candy apples
they give like 7 stat, why are people buying them?

it's dead
and i have some bad news
the person in charge of it is the one who's "custom content" was "Mrs songs check in" which was 1k mobs for a daily check in that gave initial rewards and then additional rewards like a week later? they were definitely toying with the idea of "do task on classic , get rewarded on main world in nu-maple" with that
I think it's going to be pozzed with nu-maple slop, shit like PSSBs cash items might become tradeable pay2win in fm stores
classic is going to have dailies and weeklies probably with rewards claimable on gms

>>530763735
it stacks with everything why not basically

zoomers are going to piss and shit and cry themselves over not being able to wear their blood oath or scar of darkness and going to be like bruh let us pay for PSSBs nexon free money and then inkwell will be like hell yes
then all the pssb heavy buyers will be like bruh let us at least sell it on market for mesos we payed real money for this and Nexon will be like ok just keep buying PSSBs we'll do anything

>>530764121
Oh kek

Its over for classic copers then

Maple legends bulls win again

>>530764121
>>530764698
>gms sucks and pservers are better
this is like the oldest possible news

>>530764647
it just seems like a placebo, what is 7 stat gonna do? 0.05% more damage?

classic fags have always been insufferable no matter the game it seems

>>530767412
according to my mains scouter 7 stat for him is 0.062% fd so yeah kek
its in showa town which is non-kms content which is why it doesnt make much sense, is outdated, useless and never touched again
but remember if u forget to use it in culvert ur kicked

erm

hate the feeling of being simultaneously extremely time gated in progression and having too much stuff to do in that window

https://maplestory.nexon.com/News/CashShop/Sale/511

are these items going to be in a pssb or in purchasable sets?

tragic how there's no senya art anywhere apparently

senya rim job

l-lmao!
D-DONT TELL PEOPLE WE CAN PAY2WIN CHALLENGER

reboot wins again

>the daily/weekly rewards end at the end of august but the world stays til the end of september so you got time to still do it if you want
is this true? why were you fags counting up to september

can i make my busta look like this

There's no horse hair so no.

first mlp, now this
what's with people and horses?

idk man why does mercedes have a horse skill

Newcutie here. I will start playing again since 2007 once classic comes out.

umm
but that's a unicorn?

Can you do this in maple?

>>530795405
>gatekeeping a temporary server that doesn't even have a ranking system
some people are truly terminally retarded

it's reg any "solo prog" inherently comes with an asterisk no one cares trust me

oooo darkywarky baby rickyyyy (35) im coming for ur proggerssss this char is only 4 weeks old!!! gonna hilla soonnnn then you'll have wasted two yearsssss

I can't believe it takes me almost the same fragments to push sol janus from 17 to 20 as it would to get a level 20 mastery. I was trying to push level 20 janus before m3/m4 but I probably have to just delay it until after. At least I can lazy farm way better after I get it.

>>530831612
i will only accept real non-practice mode kills with no oz ring no bossfams no sayrams elixir
this is just larp for babbies

>>530840156
this but she's doing it against me

identisk was the last good seasonal event

the cute and fuckable otters and all the otter rewards made the event

for me
was the music
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3v98cUp6PQ

give Dave NOW
I can't wait a week more
this is torture

this but m3/m4
i can't believe i'm wasting sol erdas by staying capped for another week, maint was supposed to have been this week

why don't you just make some boosters

don't boosters expire in 24h?
pretty useless outside making like 1 just before the maint (in case of extension hell) to pop expiring sol erda energies

Hop on legends.
Or the roguelike meme
Its quite fun and dev actively implements suggestions from playerbase
(Im not the dev i swear)

ok then does chief bandit have fj

did heroes completely lose their axe aesthetics?
are aran and demon slayer the only "axe" classes

god i hate breumi

265-275 is still complete ass and needs a remake

darkkadaj won

regshitters btfo

>>530878406
why?

>>530880586
grindy af, i only get 9/10 activations before finish daily

true, I used to cap event activations but now they give the same exp but with less frequency

>kms finally make grandis mp
>doing more than once a day still locked behind a paywall
>doing more than once a day per character is completely locked by all means
how does that make any sense, also when will inkwell realize this isn't kms and stop being so stingy with mp like gooks

shit costs 7 mil bro what do you mean

You will HP wash in classic and you will be thankfull for it like a good goy

>see the annoying "kot" poster already avatarfagging in another general
yikes

>someone sitting on their Lady Syl chair
>go up next to them and pull of the Shumi chair
>they immediately get off their chair
ah, i see

odium having a bunch of burning stage 10 maps is nice

redpill me on the line

which
may we see

>>530896129
mecha break general
just scrolling through you instantly see it

need a tiny bit more damage for lucid but that's just my gear sucking rn and some flubs
next week I'll probably be gucci for her and gloom, and then get hands diff on will p3 again

does playing on reg during dmt give fomo to buying cubes when you see all people hit in chat

cw bros, I did not get any arcane boxes to drop, I'm now bricked

we can be bricked together bro

>remember the maplestory 2 emulator exists
>open it up
>fap to thick chibi maple ass

>go back to maple dailies
i wish that game was good and didn't die

could i make 10k points in cw with the time left

>>530913778
Did the same like week ago
Even logout screen was lewd

Is there any point in killing hard over normal vhilla if all I want is an arcane box? I haven't been able to find any info on whether the drop rate is higher for hard.

was f/p a mistake to make on cw
my highest char before this was a 250 bishop now im 265 on the f/p

>>530937283
I dunno this is like my first character I've played past 200 and I'm doing okay

they should have made a real challenge world, this one is just a sad larp for babies (actually 0 challenge)
>no starter gear
>no 1.5x exp
>no maxed event buffs
>no free oz ring
>no hyperburn
>can't use mag pots to level up

the intended role of cw is probably supposed to be turboing people that never got past CRA into the real game so they can see it isn't that scary and stick around with optional bragging rights medal for people that actually do play this game already
if that was it, it worked, it's not scary and I'm sticking around

do your shoulders hurt carrying those goalposts from cw is bad and nopony will hit challenger to cw is free now that everypony is gonna challenger
shame you missed it

i have medal display turned off so i couldn't care less if you fell for cuckworld or not

the actual challenge is in fighting ctene+bosses solo which would not be made any more difficult without challenger world bonuses but just more tedious

(you'd know if you've min cleared the bosses but you probably havent even beaten them)

there's no challenge to it since you get free gear to kill the bosses with lmao stop larping

gearing is tedious not difficult that's not a challenge to begin with, getting better luck w drops cubing and pressing the star force button doesn't make you good at the game
just do the min clear ape

>there's no challenge
let's see your challenger medal sweatie

i still don't think it's worth it, by the time you can transfer out of cuckworld you could have made the same character in main world
you'll get your fake prac mode clears but then still won't be able to get the non prac mode solo until it's time to transfer out
(total time wasted:3-4months)
that could've been used to work on multiple ctene bulers instead of one or wap on main

how much damage would you need to finish hvhilla anyway

>>530952409
>willfully branding yourself as a cuck by wearing the cuckworld medal
oof yikes that is real cringe sweetheart

no one will hit challenger here so you wasted your time trying to challenger is free so you wasted your time trying in the timespan of 1 thread

you have zero ctoilet alts because ur not bm potty trained on main
u could've had your first for free but sat out because you don't train

bakushin bakushin bakushin

>>530955327
what he is saying makes sense for him. even if he did his dailies during the entire CW he'd MAYBE be able to beat hlotus right at the end, only coz he'd be able to kill it in sub 5 mins

otherwise he wouldnt clear anything and it'd have been a waste of time for him.

instead he can make it on his main world and get carried for gear, much better.

>>530956089
yea ig thats how hes two years in hypertension and locked out of bm because he can't lock in or understand spoken English

i'd rather make 5 ctene mules on main world in the time it takes you to make one on cuckworld

still can't use your "free" mule until end of august while im progging 5 ctene bulers on main world by August should all be 50+mil cp

I'm using cw as a third MPE and extra erda daily, shame the epic dungeon is account wide for some reason

it really was just fomo wasn't it

you can get an "extra" erda daily by farming frags on main and doing the erda daily on your hyperburn in main world anyway

>>530958357
yes the evil chibis are retarded whatever content they can do in 3 months i can do it in a month

and im still getting the cuckworld rewards at end of checkins anyway, going to bonk to 270 with dave tickets clear like 6 bosses and get emerald in a week get my free 1k fraggies then transfer out

how many times can you betray yourself before your word has no power
youre up to like at least 20 times youve said a thing and the opposite happened but thats just here do you lie to yourself when you're not here too

it takes me like 10 mins to complete the daily and get 1 sol and 12 frags, that would amount to like 3-6 frags farming on main with full droprate and those frags are extra on top of the farming

on average people are playing their cuckworlders ~2hrs a day after dailies weather it be wapping or doing min clears in prac mode that's still time wasted there you could use wapping on main for more gains

you have to farm levels and frags on your legion champs anyways

>>530959952
cope, I'll be finished with 5 ctene bulers by end of august, all they need now is just more arcane symbols and one more sup gollux to be 50+mil
going to have 6 libbed characters by the winter patch
then there is the two hyperburns to 270 and free lyn to 270 hyperburn so I'll have 9 ctene bulers by the time i hit 2 years played in May 2026

considering diaperkidaj is from wow where they don't have to grind anymore it kinda tracks that hes fallen behind
guess he just misread the room and now hes got sunk costs

I'm just doing it for kinoplex

you'll have that but you won't have a medal, and no amount of time spent sneeding here can get it for you

It's crazy how many posts this one guy has made trying to justify his decision to skip CW. There shouldn't be any need to do that to random people on the internet, which is how you know he's really bothered by the choice he made. We're not even a month into it yet so this is going to get a lot worse over time.

well i made the right choice and im telling you how it could have been if you didn't fall for the fomo
im playing how i want while you're stuck doing chores for inkwell

now that cuckworlders have realized they lost and have been defeated by burn out i am the winner eating good and feasting

cw is just Dave's waiting room

what burn out I wish I had more things to do faster

Looking for old friends from Bera, Th3iF4LiFe

Hello, my name Th3iF4LiFe (Yeah, i spelled thief wrong, i was a kid ) and I played Maplestory back in 2000s, but i also had a several phases playing it post big bang. I am here to find some old friends who I either vaguely or frankly remembered. Other Maplers who I associated with are MaGeLiFe (sister) and DanHumphrey, formerly known as SniperTech (IRL childhood friend).

I do remember the following people: Zaftar, Zikdcsd, Lalajun123 or urmama123, Chibiusachan, BabyChris, CHEDDAR

If you know these people or are one of them, feel free to hit me up if you wanna rekindle. Thank you!

hard william down!!! now i just gotta lock in for rucid p3 and i'll be diamond! diamond hands!! big butterfly sowrd!!!

gonna make it bros

just hit challenger

>>530975134
nice! congrats anon ^~^

>>530975294
no grats he is pay2win

Maplestory was my childhood. I absolutely loved everything about it, from the art style, the RPG-vibes, the flashy animations, the community, THE MUSIC. So many memories waking up early on the weekends to play Ludi-PQ. Living in South-East Asia, I was so hyped when the Singapore map came out! Honestly there are a few games that give me the brain-itch to come back and play, and they are Minecraft, Dota, and Maplestory. I've tried the other 2 and they are extremely fun, but they haven't scratched my RPG itch and so I'm left thinking about Maple.

Over the years I've stopped by the reddit just to see what's happening. And the general consensus is that every year the community sort of dwindles little by little. And in a world as big as maple, I'm curious if that can make it feel lonely or more isolating. Part of the reason why I would want to try again is for the MMO aspect.

I've also seen several concerns that the game is too grindy now, with the requirements for Legion? IDK too much about this, but I'm really just interested in having fun, so I'm curious if the grindiness effects the overall gameplay?

Long story short, I know it'll never live up to the rose-tinted memories I have for this game, but is it worth coming back at all?

it's probably less grindy unless you're trying to do the real end game stuff, 1-200 is pretty short and free now if your worried about legion and links and stuff, 200-260 takes a bit more time and 260-300 is when the real time crunch starts
it's a pretty good time to get into it if you want to try cause you get to speed through the early stuff and see if you like the real nu-maple experience pretty fast with the hyper burn and challenger gear stuff

Simply put, it’s a different game loop now. You can play it however you want, but it’s more catered towards solo progression. As in, the most important things to do are the daily quests, weekly quests, make new characters for legion/links, grind for mesos, and fight daily/weekly bosses. All of those activities except for bossing are solo, and even for bossing you’re incentivized to fight as many on your own as you can. So the vibes are different because everyone’s trying to optimize their playtime. It’s pretty time-consuming as well - can easily take up as much time (if not more than) a full-time job if you’re doing all the main stuff for growing your account.

But, the music is still absolutely amazing, including in the new areas. New boss fights are genuinely engaging, lots of classes are fun to play, and if you find a nice guild with new-ish players then the social aspect can still be pretty good. There’s no harm trying it out for a bit and seeing if you like it

269 on my cwer im gonna make it bwos!

woooo!!! diamonde!!!!! welcome to myyy mine we aint wastin no time we aint goin outside we aint goin outsiiide
just soloed p3 lucid it was really close its kinda hard to do 12t in 40 seconds but i got there!! and now i only need to solo hilla and cslime and do some dailies for l'challengeur its so close!! im having so much fun and then i used my leggy potty scrolls on the arcane gloves i found and used the challenger world shoppe purple cubes and got 8% crit dam!!! and 7% stat and tonight for 30% off im gonna enhance them to 17 stars its gonna be so epic

so are we supposed to do reinforced or superior gollux in cw?

no supp drops so I'm saying fuck it and going for reinforced because God hates me

>>530985058
wut class are u?

>>530988568
bucc

Im already 3pc sup

what do you guys think the strongest skill in the game is

piece of strongest shieeet

never played this before, whats a good private server? assume thats better than official

>no 60% off this time
aiiee im bricked

3 bill and boomed all my reinforce gollux on heroic cw
kms

wow sounds like a great time to do ur culvert anon

kek kinoplex lost

i will save kinoplex

Haven't played in a few years, what's the current state of the explorer thieves? Is DB any good?

i hate this game

>>531009648
don't sf on 30% next time bro

shit never gets better tho
i looked at 22 eternals 3L and they are just +1mil ATT/2mil CP for me over 22 crabcanes

wrong
you will make it anyway

NOOOOOOOOOO
I DIDN'T HAVE ANY MESOS FOR THE SSF NOR THE ITEMS
I ONLY HAVE THIS, WHY ALL OF THESE 16* KEEP FAILING

scared to tap to 21 and get it to boom after so much work getting a piece there
i know 7% is low, but knowing nexon that's probably not an accurate rate
dunno how people do 22 or 23

>>531006727
NL, Shad and DB are all decent picks
I think Shad is the better pick, if only for the extra meso %

>tap my 20* item 10 times
>all fails
i already "bro just tapped" it stfu

boomed 2 sup rings, 7 meisters and 2 kts going for 22* sup
very cool game

When will people learn that 5/10/15 is the play if you're going for 20+

today, i am a loser
but there is always tommorow

what is the point of 30%?
just getting to 15?

anything up to 17 is pretty okay on 30% off. the reduced boom count on non-safeguarded items is where 5/10/15 shines

i dreamt of a first person classic maplestory

this is why i only tap on ssf

nexon manipulates boom and fail rates on ssf

yeah but even if you dont hit you know you got your moneys worth
whereas on 30% you get stuck on 15-17 before booming
on 10/15 you blow thru way too much meso per tap

two waps for 2%
night troupe when

>3bill
>all I had in cw
>literal 0 gains
feels bad

Does OSMS have giant backpacks for me to where? What about objects like vases to use as helmets?

no slime ring
boomed both my reinforced gollux items
it's over

am i fucked if i don't party boss for arcane boxes in cw?

>came in with 6bil and a 17* cra claw
>come out with 3 booms and no mesos
fuck

>>531029003
stop being a little bitch and use the party search

i should've just bought the white gold throwing stars for 6bil in the meso shop fuck

>>531029003
You aren't bricked but it'd help if you got it, RNG of box vs consistency of bigger meso crystal in the short time span

50 deuce in 4 weeks baybee
heh gap this cuckworlders

yall heard sumn?

i boomed my only 20* on the first attempt to 21 for this mule
god i hate sf so much

godkadaj is so cool and pro

should have settled
out of spares? settle
low on money? settle
already made some gains? settle
then when the next even rolls up and you have 100b hoarded, you can sf copies so you don't move backward when they boom(they will)

>made a 17* sup pendant even though it's currently worse than a 10* mechanator due to the set effect
>also prepared a 16* pap mark that's worse than my bean mark
I'm playing the long game bros.

>>531035745
ya, see, i can keep pumping out 50mil bulers every month now
if i spent 3-4 months in cuckworld thats 2-3 extra bulers i'd be missing

so tired of SFing
gonna rest a bit

Inkwell's note when? I need to reroll some senpaitachi.

>Get my first Dominator Pendant today from Ark's drop
>Gloat about it to my friends
>It booms
>Laugh because the wicked receive divine punishment
>Still 17 starred 2 reinforced gollux pieces for pennies

Challenger is free.

>no stats

hyperionbros eating good

>timed all arcane symbols and two grandis symbols to all level up tomorrow for +1k stat
>saved up enough erda to get the new nodes right away
>Dave will probably allow me to hit 270 by the end of the week for another 1k stat from the new symbol
Big gains coming up next week.

spent 55b to boom my eternal hat today

was stuck in 15* hell, 30% is a scam as usual

>she falled for sf "events"(scam)

piece of seagger shet

me on the right

I hope the rebooters are enjoying their last few months of freedom whjle starforcing before they are forced to only do it on events due to lack of spares with the +30% boom chance.

I don't have to because I'm troosting the plan

>>531062516
unless you are a whale you'd only be doing on event in interactive anyway

you'd also be an idiot to sf yourself, just buy finished gear. no point in gambling when you can guarantee it.

extreme magnus soon

you mean verus magnus
i wonder if nexon is going to make his return a big deal, or if he's going to be just a mini nuisance like darknell

darkcel

they don't even need to make vmagnus just add like one mechanic to hmag change the background scale him up and make it 2 man and people would get stuck again

>No inkwell note
>No legion champ
>No SF 30 changes
Go WEST!

no note because inkwell is still debating with chatgpt to decide which is the best bullshit answer he can give to the auction house tariffs, please understand

I hope inkwell gets fired and wonky takes over even though he'll probably cancel classic

inkwell is the last barrier before repoop normalization so be careful what you wish for t b h

inkwell is deep in thought thinking of ways to make Lynn more broken give him a week or two

>>531014896
>if only for the extra meso %
How much of a difference does it make? I just reached 5th job with DB and only got some 2m so far. How hard in general is it to make money on regular servers if you're just starting out?

oh God it's the dreaded Sunday again
5 set of arcane weeklies coming right up

So, in theory, nluwill is easier than hlomien? Trying to do these bosses for the first time in challenge world, I feel like I have the damage for lotus and damien (with all the buffs on) at around 18m power, but I only barely beat easy lucid with all the deaths, and I've yet to even be able to touch will, even easy will.

no not really
you kind of answered yourself already

>tfw going to be able to one burst all RoD bosses this time around
peepoGIGAS

>>531089050
Yeah I just wanted to know if maybe I was just that shit at the game or something. I'm trying to get to the continuous ring cause I hear that's a pretty sizable jump in damage, but I can't kill the bosses to get it so I'm missing something and I don't know what.

damien difficulty is kinda class dependant honestly but I'd say it's will>lotus>lucid in terms of mechanical difficulty

hlotus and nlucid are pretty much the same
free phase 1 and cheeseable phase 2 (+ phase 3 in lotus' case)

i personally have an easier time with nlucid than hlotus
both are easy bosses thougheverbeit

how do you cheese lotus?

lucid p1 lowkey harder than p2 fr

In my experience in CW, hdamien > hlotus > nwill > nlucid

Damien is only number 1 because it requires the highest damage. Mechanically the fight is piss easy.
Lotus is a bit easier to kill but you can actually die in that fight. Not really an issue unless you're going for min clear though.
Will p1 is trivial. P2 has a lot going on and might cost a life or two from the potion block unless you have healing senpaitachi. P3 can get you webbed but is otherwise fairly simple.
Lucid is just easy all around, though p1 might cost you some lives from the golems falling on top of you.

they're both annoying for their own reasons
p1 has the constant adds, p2 has considerably less uptime with her flying around and going invincible during attacks
honestly i prefer p1 over p2

it is impossible to die in lucid p1 unless you ignore the golems for too long and you can't get behind the green dragon
falling golems in a nonissue because they give you enough time to walk away, worst case press your designated rush skill

>>531098791
i would switch will and lotus
lotus really isn't hard if you can consistently get him out of sicko mode in p3 while being mindful of falling shit
the fucking fma skill can be iframed and you can keep your distance once he explodes the second after the fma
i think the only frustrating part of the fight is p3 knocking back cause that shit stuns you long enough to get bombarded with damage from multiple things and you can only use will so many times

will is just fucking annoying
i loath doing the tests and clearing webs will often get you killed if youre not paying attention to when he goes spider form
no pot usage in p2 can really fuck you up if you're a new player but it's still annoying even as a player who knows the fight

damien difficulty is entirely your classes ability to deal with ball number 3 in a timely manner, everything else is mostly a cake walk

>2025
>going behind the dragon instead of idling in the sky during it

mechanic rework with this type of feel when?
youtu.be/9gIMZ0WyY88

can you even do it with lv1~6 blink though? i thought we were talking about cw

Which one?

>>531104526
they all have the same stats
pick whichever you think the coolest is

>>531103148
level 1 blink is 3.1 seconds, level 6 is 3.4 seconds
it's tight, but it's doable for a lot of classes

>>531103148
if you can airstall (e.g. bam) you can do it
if you have a shorter i-frame (e.g. hero) you can blink and then iframe as you fall

>>531102709
that's xenon tho

>>531103148
Bruh

>biggest maple streamers moving to osrs
it's literally over now

They Went West and started playing games made in the west.

Which old school class can pull off the buzzcut the best?

>>531103148
if they didn't want me to level blink they shouldn't have given me blink nodes

could i clear hard lucid with 60mil cp? i can solo hard lotus and damien

>sees challenger medal
>wow that guy wasted a lot of his time
>forgets a minute later

if you're on maplestory and you have access to an area of the game where you can see someone with a challenger medal on, you have also wasted a lot of time

>>531118605
yes, and it wont even be a min clear assuming little deaths
clear time will vary by class

>he couldn't clear challenger cw
KEK what a scrub

Has anyone checked on Inkwell lately? Like seriously, did he get soft-locked inside the Tutorial Zone or trapped in a Gachapon machine? We haven’t seen an Inkwell Note in ages — at this point, I’m starting to think he transcended into a higher dimension where patch notes are sacred scrolls only unlocked through ancient rituals (or Nexon HQ printer toner refills). The last update was so long ago I’ve started seeing visions of future content in my sleep. We don’t need much, Inkwell, just a little note, a scribble, even a badly drawn stick figure holding a sword would do. Or blink twice in Morse code through the Cash Shop icon if you’re being held captive by Cygnus. We miss you, you mysterious patch-dealing cryptid

Told myself I'm never tapping on 30% again
Tapped an arcane on mule with 36bil never went past 18
I’ll just get it back to 17 at 10 bil left
Took 10 bil to hit 17

>>531118605
you can kill hlucid at like 25-30 mil bro, lock in

i wish maple had fun bosses

I think Lotus is fun

nevermind today was a great day for tapping

only need gloves now and with baldrix coming soon should have a good supply of them (i'll settle 18* and wait for spares when we get 30* patch)

>>531109523
Canonically xenon is a really nice guy with a cute pet sidekick so he cant really fit the vibe
While mechanic can just be anyone

I remember when Go West was first announced, everyone was treating Inkwell as the second coming of Jesus (with the W inkwell posts, calling him a Savior, etc)

Now I see the complete opposite.

On the contrary, I see more people in the west praise Chang Seop for the direction he is going with KMS.

Just thought I'd ask because I'm pretty out of the loop on the inkwell situation aside from him neglecting interactive worlds

why are you copying posts from reddit while I'm trying to min clear bro
rather rude

piece of reddit shite

it's finally done bros, no more weeklies
until i decide i wanna prog another mule into ctene
which i might if i like playing adele when i hb her next

bro is from
*punches cock-ulator*

nopony spoil the grandis arc for him

no need to bully, this is my 2nd into grandis not counting the other 260 mules that are perma stuck in cernium
i just don't like arcane river and im glad i dont have to touch it again for a while

real talk
what does gms have over kms
anything we do is it really worth it over having to wait whole half a year for any cool sweet updates

thats a good thing actually it lets you prepare ahead and avoid nothingburger crap like cuckworld

we have reboot..

we got reboot and some extra scrimblos and as0 and the insight gained from playing a couple months ahead
being a couple months behind is actually a huge player buff amy gacha player would attest to this

I don't even care about the contents of the note, I just want some senpai cards and maybe mag pots to get Sia out of the way.

I just want my frags

Why does this general refer to familar cards as senpaitachi whats so important about that weasel in mushroom shrine?

shake my head to be honest family, I can't say the acronyms, or they'll get turned to weebspeak

erda dailies still being 3k mobs is actually criminal

that's like 10-12 minutes in a 18k map

see
u shouldnt play the game if you cant even dedicate 15 minutes of your daily time every single day of your life
you still gotta kill 3k mobs regardless o algo and reddit said we get less frags o algo

I want normalization and magic wand
do it, do it changslop

>>531214956
>no erda weeklies
if you do dailies everyday then it's a loss
>no no changes
it's just been released in SEA, there's no confirmation that we're not getting it or anything and you're just making shit up
>boss crystals permanently stuck at cra
majority of the players have cra mules and if you're referring to the kms crystal changes where they nerf lower boss crystals just to buff higher boss crystals slightly, then this is just a nerf for the majority of the playerbase
>2 min changes coming in oct and no earlier
again, no confirmation and you're just pulling out of your ass
>sf changes exactly the same as kms, maybe the 30% boom rate off permanently if were lucky
see above
>assent skills delayed a month for no good reason
this literally has no basis whatsoever, stop just making shit up
>coloring prism shenanigan
who actually cares?
>overseas content always bricking the game will never improve
ok
>classic will permanently brick the client and server
we don't know yet
>no communications ever
ok

can't be a loss if they just buff it like they did to arcane weeklies
