Maple Story!

[Breakthrough]

I can't believe I never noticed this topic before. I'm truly addicted to this game, although a couple weeks ago I couldn't get it to work (luckily I found out the problem a few days ago) so my character(s) aren't as high leveled as they could be. Oh well.

Anyway, my IGNs (both on Bera) are Ileria, my level 20 mage, and Alaizabel, my level 10 thief. I use my mage more, just because I like mages.

I tried to play this at a friend's house, the graphics seemed so cool and everything... omg...

Then I went home and tried to download it, but it doesn't work!!

I think most people here play on Bera, but as it is newer, the majority play on Scania.

I'll add you. (I just tried, it said your mage wasn't registered)

Hmmmm... I dunno what the problem could be Divine, try searching around for the symptoms.

it's because my mage character isn't for everyone in here. it's for the people from KRR (the forums i've been to) and the friends i've invited.

Ah, there I go. I downloaded it and created a character, but I haven't had time to play it much. I opened a window to edit keys, but then snails started attacking me and I started panicking and I couldn't close the window, so I died. I'm so bad at this game.

Does anyone know where you go when you die?? Cause I have no idea where I am now.

You go to the nearest town. I'm assuming you were on Maple Island, so you either went to Amherst or Southperry. Most likely Southperry.

If you talk around and one of the NPCs you talk to offers to take you to Victoria Island, you're in Southperry. If you find an NPC named Lucas, you're in Amherst.

Thanks =D.

I'm planning on making myself a magician, then go on to cleric. Cause they're cool XD.

Healers are ok, but healing are their MP Gulpers. you may want to increase the healing skills to increase your healing potency. once you're a cleric, you don't have to use Health Pots no more instead you're gonna use MP Pots for your healing. Damage Dealers Such as Fire/Poison and Ice/Lightning need Health Pots and Mana Pots if they don't have a healer with them.

Hmm... which stats should I generally increase while I'm still a beginner? I've already got Int to 20, but I'm not sure whether I should continue upping it or focusing on other areas like luck or strength (so I can kill the stupid big mushrooms more easily).

I'm trying to get mushroom caps, but the big mushrooms are so hard to kill. I finally killed one, but it didn't drop anything!! ='(

Most people advise against raising your strength if you're a mage unless you want to be able to use maces (which are generally only for Warriors and Magicians, I think).

As for luck, you'll want to raise that to at least your level plus three, which is the minimum if you want to wear some equipment. So if you're level 6, you want your luck to be 9, level 15 would have 18 luck, and so on.

I know it's really hard for mages to kill those big orange mushrooms...every time I tried one when I was making my mage, I either died or was ksed by a warrior-in-training. I've still got Biggs' quest as an unfinished quest on my quest window. I had the same problem when I was making my thief because I was focusing on dexterity before strength. (BTW, since you're making a mage, don't increase your dexterity either.)

Luckily mages only have to train to level 8 instead of 10.

EDIT: Basically, just ignore Strength (unless you want to wield a Mace) and Dexterity, make Luck your level + 3, and dump all the rest into Intelligence.

you don't add STR for mages. if you're gonna be mage then add lots of INT and LUK if you wanna use be a good healer or damage dealer (DD).

note: just say DD (if it's a wiz or mage) or healer (if it's cleric) instead of saying mages. it's easier like that.

Ok. Thanks. XD, I think I screwed my character, I raised his strength and dexterity 4 times. I don't really think it matters, though :/. At least I put most points into Int and Luck.

don't ever ever add STR and DEX on your mage. if you wanna be a better DD or Healer then don't add STR and DEX or you'll be making the same mistake like i did.

I agree, a restart may be in order.
