Re: MapleStory

First class I'll be making on the private servers when they come out.

Sorry if this might sound a little slooooow, but do you plan on inviting us to the private server once you gain access to one? I'd like to be notified somehow cause I really don't visit this thread as much as I used to but I'd love to start again in a private server when the time has come.

Re: MapleStory

Pwnt.

Coming from a DK, we definitely are NOT the strongest class. It has been proven that both WKs and Saders are more efficient killers than DKs, however our skills are more suited for mobbing than theirs are. That's all there is to it.

Not true. DK's are overpowered, and there's no way around that.

Take a lvl 103 DK. At his level, he does around 9-14k to 1-3 monsters. With 100 base dex.

A lvl 103 WK? Lucky to pull 6-13k. With 80 dex. To one monster. It beats the DK in speed only with final attack activated, and it's CB mob is a lot slower than a DK's buster.

Now Caroo is lvl 140 with around 20 base dex? Max he says is around 21-22k, with around 12-14k min. A few days back I saw a lvl 11x (low 11x) DK, 8 base dex, pulling 10-19k. 2x more lvls and there's no doubt he'll be outdamaging the WKs.

And the point is, every single place there's an opportunity for mobs. And hands down, DK's win it. Yet rarely do you see a 1vs1, where a sader/wk might win - but the DK never loses out by much.
In a 1vs3? DK will get 2/3.
1vs1? DKs will probably lose, but only by a tiny bit.

Re: MapleStory

Alright, when the private servers comes out, what class should I play.

Don't say Cleric, more than likely, I won't be playing one again. (Need to try something new, Cleric is fun and all, but I really want to try a different class.)

Re: MapleStory

I've played every class and made it to 2nd job with all of them and some 3rd. I really enjoy playing as a Sader and Hermit the best though.

Once this comes out, I'll have to find a server for us all to play on and go nuts. All I've ever wanted to do is make at least one of each class (I say at least one because there are multiple builds I can try with good enough EXP rates).

Probably missed it because this thread is too big for its own good.

Re: MapleStory

Depending on the rates, I may start out with a number of classes. For low rate(10x and less), a cleric or a warrior. For high rate(up to 1,000x), a warrior, a crossbowman, or maybe even another pure int fire mage. Anything above that is an experimental server. If I whack one green snail and level up at level 10, I'm sure I can get an HP warrior to at least 70 without even thinking about it.

I really do hope it's at a rate of around 20-60x, because it means we can keep playing forever like we are now. If Banditcom transfered his character to a private server magically and got 20x the EXP, he probably wouldn't even be close to capping the level limit of 255(I think).

Re: MapleStory

....Oh....I thought I read somewhere that DK's became the strongest class....oh well.

I want to start an archer but it's hard to find the desire to play after my account got hacked.

PS. I did my first MushMom solo at level 50.

Re: MapleStory

Ha! You guys are funny. I did my first Jr. Balrog solo at level 39. It was one of my proudest moments. It did take a long time.

Re: MapleStory

I did the math while thinking about it one day.

At level 30, you need ~100,000 exp to level. You're probably leveling on horned shrooms. 35 exp per kill.

I think a good average EXP multiplier is 50x. kMS has 60x, if you needed a comparison.

35 * 50 = 1,750

You'd need to kill about 60 to level.

Compare that to the ~3,000 you'd have to kill without 50x.

Yeah, that's a good estimate. When I crunched the numbers for my ~75 Priest at Zombies, I estimated that it would take about ten minutes to level up.

It's a perfect way to test builds too. I know I'll make a pure poison mage, an HP cleric, pure STR warrior...

The list is endless.

Re: MapleStory

200, Tosh. Definitely 200. 3 (last time I checked, IIRC) people worldwide have hit the limit. It's definitely 200.

And uh, there prolly won't be private servers for a while. srsly

Re: MapleStory

It's not quite as far as you may think, EB.

Re: MapleStory

I just had the worst training session ever. This priest was spamming for a DK so I decided to train for a bit because I was bored. When we get to grims he just keeps blessing me. So I go "...What about Hs?". His response is "I dont have any Hs" I was like "So your a hacker, put all your sp into sr?" He goes, "No, I was gonna make a solo priest". So I figured fine, Yea the exp is going to suck but whatever. So after a cycle we get to the bottom and he just sits on the rope with me and I ask him to mob and he goes "I dont know how." So I had to explain to him how to mob.

There is no way he's not hacking on that acc. The no hs at 78 is sorta understandable but not knowing how to mob? Come on.

[ToshX]

Re: MapleStory

WHAT.

THE.

HELL!

I could mob on Squeek's character IMMEDIATELY after I got on it. You just jump into a mob and cast heal. That's it.

God, he must be really retarded for a hacker.

Re: MapleStory

I don't know who said that private servers aren't as far off as one may think, but they are wrong. From what I have looked into, everyone is on a plight to somehow manage to get the server data which IMO is a pretty unrealistic goal. The only one that seems to have a chance is pMS which is trying to recreate the entire game from scratch. They've made a good bit of progression in retrospect, granted right now you can only really walk around, click on menos, jump, climb ladders, etc, BUT that's much more than I see servers like MapleEVO and such doing which seem to just be using a false hope that the files they need will fall into their lap sometime soon. Pretty much all "private servers" are going to fail unless they can recreate the game or some how (illegally dur) get the files which they have been thusfar unable to. pMS (Private Maple Story by the way, the pun is obviously intended) is the only one that looks hopeful to me and I've played the super duper beta testing thingy (again just walking around.) If I get any news about it, or other private servers, I'll let you guys know. =D

Oh P.S., It looks like pMS will be doing a low server and a high server, the low server being somewhere in the range of 5x exp and 3x drops, with NPC changes such as selling CS items and scrolls, and it will "count" whereas the high server will be something like 50x exp / drops which will be more just for fun/testing stuff out as you guys were saying. Of course you can always wait for some stupid server with 10,000x exp and 5,000x drops (aka you get an equip every 5 seconds) with everything costing 1 meso, but I don't see where the fun in that is... but that's for you to decide. That's all for now. =P

Re: MapleStory

I said that, but I thought one group already had the server files. I could be wrong. The company that now runs MS will probably chase after them, though, but after they're publicly released, it won't matter.
