Re: MapleStory

I am FAless and one of the "smarter" archers out there. I try to explain things and the majority of archers are retards and dont' get it or don't care (at least in scania). The guides on hiddenstreet aren't very good just because the people that wrote them were probably 4x or so. I already went through 2nd job so I know all the skills and the order you should get them in. I'll try to add in some training spots if I have time/if I remember them. I know most of the good spots for 2nd job, I just don't know if I can think of good places in vic for 1st job archers.

Re: MapleStory

Just do pigs and stuff in early 20's then go to Ant Tunnel in early 30's and so on.. Like every other class does at first. 2nd job is normally your choice to find a good leveled monster to keep at it.

Re: MapleStory

Yeah, I got to 50% yesterday, so I'm probably going to level up tonight.

Also:

FFR NIGHT RETURNS!!

We will be having an FFR Night to celebrate Chromer finally hitting Level 50. I say we do it next Friday or Saturday?

Congrats in advance.

Now for some screens and other random screens:
Leveled up Wednesday while getting some EQ items.

Re: MapleStory

the damage for ds is much more stable then arrow blow (which doesn't mean it is stronger then arrow blow, most get this confused)

It actually is stronger, but only because critical adds instead of multiplies. I figure I ought to bring this up during all this archer talk.

When Critical says +100% damage, it means +100% damage, not x2. Meaning that arrow blow isn't 260% damage * 2 = 520% damage with critical. It is actually 360%. Double shot, however, is 130%+100% + 130%+100% with two criticals, or 460% damage. 460% > 360%, so doubleshot has a higher max damage. That's why Strafe is so much stronger. If all 4 arrows get critical, you can have 800% damage. This doesn't happen extremely often, though, because critical is only a 40% chance, but it does happen enough to make more arrows in one shot = better.

In other news, I'm at like, 90.5% right now, so I'ma play before I go to work. HERE I COME, LEVEL 10 MIST! =D

Re: MapleStory

Or maybe FFR night tomorrow or Sunday for me hitting 3rd job =P

For sure. Anyone 5x+ (or who can get a dead mine scroll) who wants to come to the Holyground is welcome.. and we can have a party and then go summon Zakum or something =D

Re: MapleStory

FFR night or whatever sounds like a good idea.

In other news, my sparta is going perfect so far. Had to give larry his 93 attack back ;_;


Brb while I grind that last 16% off at zombies -_-

Re: MapleStory

Ok. I am gonna start maxing critical shot. And yes, I have been using melee weapons. I've been at Heneys or w/e hunting grounds just killing Slimes and Orange Mushrooms. Everynow and then I'll get to kill the tree stump that spawns and I get those branches. Then I kill those pigs at hidden beach and get stiff feathers. Then I make 1k arrows with what I have. I need 3 stiff feathers atm because I have 30 tree branches. I plan to have a lot more by level 18 when I get that xbow thing.

Thank you guys soooo much. My other friends have no idea what they are doing and one already had to restart because he didn't know you needed dex for a thief -_-. He had like 35 into luck and like some amount into str and the other two were the way he rolled them. So he restarted to make a mage and he's following a guide. -_-

If you read what was here before. Forget it. I didn't know EDT was the same as EST but in summertime here in PA. God I'm stupid.

Re: MapleStory

I have THE worst luck with drops. Oh and just wanted to show my damage range now =D



500+ lucidias killed, not so much as an elixer dropped. I got a ton of mana elixer drops but nothing else =/ I really need a dark falcon or ANYTHING because I really do need money. I didn't lose much on pots there though just because I have puppet and mana elixers were dropping like crazy =) I'm going to try to get to 75% ish so I can level on saturday during 2x exp.

Spearman is highest in demand for parties. They do good damage, and also are a must for Zakum because of their skill Hyperbody which adds HP.

In addition, they get super fast leveling with priests (ie priests all want to party with them, unlike crusaders or whiteknights who have a harder time finding a priest to party with).

Thanks afro.

Re: MapleStory

Two things to say this post.

1. There is a phenomenal amount of lag for me on my laptop. I went out to the main computer in the house and I downloaded, installed, and ran MS. Then it was the highest settings still and NO LAG. I went to the Henesys Hunting Grounds where I train and still no. Wtf Laptop...I might just go buy an ethernet cord so I am getting full..axcess (I know its not spelled right -_-)to my internet connection.

2. When I quit MapleStory WEIRD things always happen. Yesterday a billion search things were open and when I closed them more popped up. WTF. And it has also ran searches for letters I have typed in the game and Windows Narrarator has popped up. And today, and by far the most perplexing, it tilted my screen 90 degrees to the right. WTF. It took me 10 minutes of my precious summer time to figure out how to turn it back. WHY IS IT DOING THIS?!?!?1!?Eleven.
