Maple Story!

[CrewWolf]

Man, I feel like the only female fire mage in the game. Everybody is either ice/lightning or healing. I've got people coming up to me going "cn u heal me?" Sorry, man, but power's my thing.

Apparently, we now have all the quests MapleSEA has, and the cursor is even finger shaped.

BUT, the patch is HUGE.

I'm pretty new at this, and i'm confused about something...
It said that once I get a job - once I die, I lose what ever experience I gained. So first time, thats what happened. But second and third time I died, I didn't lose any experience ( which was a good thing since I was at 80+)...
Does someone know how to explain this?

[Chanel]

When you die, you're supposed to lose 15% of the experience you currently have, providing that you are no longer a "beginner" and you have a job class (warrior, thief, magician, and archer). The only times where you wouldn't lose experience after getting a job (that I can think of) would be right after a level up, because at that point you don't have any experience to lose. But since you said you had 80+ exp at that point, I have no idea.

Oh in that case you're probably right... I was so worried about my experience points that I didn't actually check the exact number, only the bar. And all I cared about, is that it wasn't on 0.
Still, I had no idea it was 15%, I swore that the magican trainer said that I will lose any experience I had.

Thanks for the quick reply.

I got a pet, a kitten, with the whole deal, pouch, magnet and a name.

Very, very useful looting tool...

Done lots of the new quests. 25 cape, fwee!

Shame I'm 49... ><

[Chanel]

I'm only lv 39 XP

I had fun last night doing the "new" lv 10 quests XD

I was kinda irked that my Nella and the Citizen's Request quest got reset though. I can see how that happened from a programming standpoint, but still ._.

[matchbow]

nella's quests being reset is awesome. now i can redo them all.

but the cursed doll quest being reset sucks massively. anyway, the cursor is so ugly now. and there are so many quests i have to do now

[Pixa]

Hehe, my Jane the Alchemist quest got reset... I really should get round to completing it fully soon.

[Shifty]

I think I screwed up... I trained my level 15 magician to have 30 strength in the beggining so it would be easier to get level up faster, but I see that its now holding me down as a magacian.
I invested so much in this character, but should I just restart?
Oh and if i delete a character, then can I reuse the name?

[Chanel]

If your magician's still on lv 15, I'd say go ahead and restart. Getting back up to 15 shouldn't take long (relatively speaking). As for the name thing, you should be able to re-use the name if you delete your current first. I think. I'm not sure how their database works.

[Xerophyte]

I was wondering, is LUK your level +2, or your level +3?

I'm confused at this point, and I really don't want to mess up my wizard.

[Pixa]

Luk = level +3
Int = all the rest

I'd say yes to a restart too... 15 = very eeep
I always say go 4/4 (in case of magician, 4 dex and 4 luk) or restart.
I have a hard line.



And finally, me and my kitten in an avatar, because I want to celebrate being level 50. Yay for me!



Any buddy request are accept, Pixal is the name.
Would anyone like to see some sort of guide for each character? It could prevent less mistakes, with reasons, too.

Feedback? I find many guides flawed... to my tastes anyway. I'm by no means 'pro', but would consider myself to have a good knowledge base to the game.

[Khristian]

I said I wouldn't come back. I swore I'd kick the habit.

YOU GUYS MAKE IT LOOK SO GOOD.

So for the time being, I'm coming back. I might just walk around, maybe even start over entirely.

I havn't bothered to read the thread to see whos new, but on Bera if anyone wants to add

NewKhris - 38 Cleric
KhrisCross- 31 Crossbowmen, go ahead.
