Re: MapleStory

Sorry I haven't been online at all. Went to grandparent's house in the middle of nowhere. I'll play jms with anyone if you want (just ask me on AIM AngryRiceBallsXD) or I'll just level up my ranger. I'm going camping on the 16th until the 25th and then I leave for Japan on the 26th so I'm going to try to grind for a while.
O_o

EDIT: WTF. Strafe got really strong O___O Level 15 right now and look...



That means my max damage on a zombie is somewhere around 8.8k O____________O

Re: MapleStory

Look guys, I made a new char and funded him and grinded him until level 60 2 months ago and I got banned. Thanks Wizet!

This is old though, I got banned sometime last month I think.

Re: MapleStory

I didn't know you had a level 60 character o_O

Did you hack? From what you posted it seems possibly you could've vacced or something. I'm guessing it's on a different account than your sin though cause I'm pretty sure you've been on within the last month atleast. If it was the same account, too bad guess. You must've hacked, wizet doesn't ban unless a GM sees you hacking (atleast from what I know).

Anyways, did the zakum pq today with tee, oni, skillz, and 2 other people. It was fun =D 20k exp, 5 dead mine scrolls, and some fire ore thing. I think I can do the jumping quest now XD

Re: MapleStory

Ah! I got it.

Did you use an auto clicker or any other external program or anything?

[-Fallen-]

Re: MapleStory

Autoclicker yes when I was like level 20 which was only for a day..but I got banned 40 levels later.

I didn't vac him or anything.


EDIT: I know nobody knew I had it, it was on my mule account and I decided to level him. And for 3 weeks at least I was grinding him and leveling at the same time with a friend who had also made a warrior who got to level 50. It was fun while it lasted I guess. Level too fast legit or not you'll get banned..

Re: MapleStory

I need help/advice/whatever.

I'm not quite sure what to do for my build now. As of now
15 strafe
1 puppet
0 everything else

What I was thinking next level was adding 2 points into puppet and 1 point into mb. 2 more points into puppet means 10 seconds now and the 1 point in mb is always useful. Is this smart or should I just ignore the increased mp cost for strafe and go on ahead to max strafe throughout 7x? I was thinking of stopping strafe at 20 for a little until I got better rain and puppet just because those are much more important then 10% damage of strafe for 10 points. Any suggestions at all? I have some time to think since I'm like 10% but I still need to start thinking about my build for the future.

Re: MapleStory

Most stop at 20 to start building rain. Rain should be maxed by 88 for the top at vikings.

Re: MapleStory

Earlier, I was training at Red Drakes for about an hour when some Mage comes in and demands that I leave the map. I told him I came here first, but then he proceeded to try to bully me out of the map, through killing everything in sight with Poison attacks. At least I had to leave when someone who auctioned off some ores to me whispered. :/

^ Yeah, I'm probably a jerk for even posting this, but I want to vent.

Re: MapleStory

So you are saying by level 78 I should have 5 mb so I can start maxing rain? What do I do between the levels? I need puppet for viking maps also and I still have to get strafe to 20.
Level 76: 2 puppet (3) 1 mb (1)
Level 77: 3 strafe (18)
Level 78: 2 strafe (20) 1 mb (2)
Level 79: 3 mb (5)
Level 80: 3 rain (3)

I'm not sure it will work very well because I need to get at least 9 in puppet for vikings right? Also, the 5 mb pre-req is throwing my build off>.< Help again bandit or anyone else?
O_o
EDIT: Found your other build bandit earlier in the thread.

Look at some guides. Yours seems nice.

70 : 1 Strafe (1)
71 : 3 Strafe (4)
72 : 3 Strafe (7)
73 : 3 Strafe (10)
74 : 3 Strafe (13)
75 : 2 Strafe (15), 1 Puppet (1)
76 : 3 Strafe (18)
77 : 1 Strafe (19), 2 Puppet (3)
78 : 3 Puppet (6)
79 : 1 Strafe (20), 2 Mortal Blow (2)
80 : 3 Mortal Blow (5)
81 : 3 Arrow Rain (3)
82 : 3 Arrow Rain (6)
83 : 3 Puppet (9)
84 : 3 Strafe (23) or 3 Arrow Rain (9) (check to see if you are getting enough range to group vikings with 6 before choosing)
85+ : Max Strafe

Oh.. and you basically will be maxing Strafe, Arrow Rain, Mortal Blow, Fire Eruption, and almost Hawk. I guess level 12 puppet is very good, and thrust you don't need as it's easy to get speed.... Although I'd probably get it to 15 for the time for Puppet.

30 Strafe
30 Arrow Rain
30 Eruption
26 Silver Hawk
20 Mortal Blow
15 Puppet
0 Thrust

Still good?

Re: MapleStory

Wait, does rain's damage* get better as it levels up? Cuz it doesn't say anything in the skill description like several other skills that do get better as they level up. If the only point of having rain is to group vikings, would he really need to pump it up higher if he's not really gonna be attacking with it, but max strafe earlier instead?

EDIT:

* - I meant range there. >___<

Hidden-street O_O I've seen arrow rain before (and eb you have too in jms) and it is very strong when it is maxed (level 11x ranger girl in jms was doing 6k to each bain with rain). I know I"ll need rain at a high level for vikings but I think I need maxed strafe before maxed rain.

Re: MapleStory

I'd say stop puppet at 3 instead of 6. And instead of stopping rain, keep maxing it. You won't need much puppet really. You'll either do spot 1 or 3. Either case, you'll want rain to be maxed.

Also change that build from 15 puppet to 12 and 26 hawk to 29. You'll want 29 and not less for hawk (99%).

So... Looks like this.
70 : 1 Strafe (1)
71 : 3 Strafe (4)
72 : 3 Strafe (7)
73 : 3 Strafe (10)
74 : 3 Strafe (13)
75 : 2 Strafe (15), 1 Puppet (1)
76 : 3 Strafe (18)
77 : 1 Strafe (19), 2 Puppet (3)
78 : 1 Strafe (20), 2 Mortal Blow (2)
79 : 3 Mortal Blow (5)
80 : 3 Arrow Rain (3)
...
89 : 3 Arrow Rain (Max)
90 : 3 Strafe (23)
91 : 3 Strafe (26)
92 : 3 Strafe (29)
93 : 1 Strafe (Max), 2 Mortal Blow (7)
94 : 3 Mortal Blow (10)
95 : 3 Puppet (6)
96 : 3 Mortal Blow (13)
97 : 3 Mortal Blow (16)
98 : 3 Mortal Blow (19)
99 : 1 Mortal Blow (Max), 2 Hawk (2)
100 : 3 Hawk (5)
...
108 : 3 Hawk (Max)
109 : 3 Inferno (3)
...
118 : 3 Inferno (Max)
119 : 3 Puppet (9)
120 : 3 Puppet (12)

There you have it. I suggest hawk before inferno cause you won't go grims for a long time anyways. Plus hawk is quite useful at 99% stun, especially at things like bottom of vikings, GKs, Thanatos.

Re: MapleStory

I haven't fully explored the viking map, but there are plenty of spots where I can snipe with explosion, and I'm pretty sure arrow rain is close to/the same range as explosion. It'd prolly come in much handier than strafe, really. >__>

[ckj846]

Re: MapleStory

Arrow rain is nowhere near as strong as explosion is EB. I need strafe to do decent damage and that extra 10% (20-30) is about 120-140 damage more per shot of strafe (360 damage overall plus adding in criticals). Like Bandit said earlier on, I really need arrow rain not to kill as much as I need it in order to group and manipulate mobs of monsters. The thing is, I'm not too sure about having only 3 puppet until 9x just because it seems like 10 seconds isn't nearly long enough, especially on a vikings map. If I don't have maxed strafe (and I'm already weak enough as it is) it is going to be even more difficult to kill effectively without stronger puppet/strafe (or a combination of the two) Still not too sure but for now I"ll follow your build bandit and add in points into strafe.
