MapleStory

Re: MapleStory

Fire Arrow, on the other hand is outdamaged by Comp in all instances in which Fire Arrow would be used.

Not if they're strong/immune to Poison, like Dreamy Ghosts. In that instance Compo (75) is worse than Claw (80), while FA is much stronger (120). More monsters have poison immunity than any other element, I'm pretty sure, which makes Compo really unappealing. In fact, FA never is completely obsolete. In 4th job, Paralyze makes Compo useless, but there will still be poison-immune things that make FA beat Paralyze. So yeah, it never gets replaced.

Brace, however, is really quickly and easily replaced, it doesn't do that well for what it is, and it takes points away from more useful things. Personally, I believe Slow, Med AND Teleport are all essential. I have limited Use space, so Med is essential to me, too (not just for money, the space that the elixirs would take would be painful). About the only skill I have points in that I don't use often is Bolt, and that's only because I've just about reached the point where I can spam Claw and still gain MP over time, so the lower cost isn't worth it anymore.

Getting skills for the short term is a waste.

EDIT: Oh yeah, and Thunderbolt is actually stronger than Ice Strike because of its speed. Smart IL mages use it at Vikings whenever possible.

Re: MapleStory

How much are 8 dex gold drop earrings worth? And how much do you think a clean metus will be -_- I'm having EXTREME difficulties with prices because I haven't played in so long. Any help =/?

Re: MapleStory

I honestly wouldn't even buy a Metus; from what I can tell, Metus prices are ridiculously high due to their rarity. For the same amount of money, you can probably get a much better Arund. I got a 101/3 hinkel for 55 mil, I recall someone buying a clean 90 attack Metus for 30 mil. Basically, i wouldnt bother with a Metus until prices drop. 8 dex earrings were like 25 mil in windia 1 week ago, with prices constantly dropping.

Re: MapleStory

Why would high level bows be expensive? Logic would indicate that the supply of high level bows would outweigh the demand for high level bows.

Also, a dex earring isn't quite as important for a bowman as a thief or warrior, I'd think (thief need for weapon requirement, warriors hurting for more accuracy). Yeah, a tiny bit more attack, but I'd guess that you can easily get by without one. In fact, wouldn't you be better off investing the money in other gear before a dex earring?

Re: MapleStory

Thing is, I don't know what else I can improve that won't be a significant cost.

Boots that I want that are 11 dex are 30-40 mil
11 att+ wgs are how much? I have a 9 att cordon which is the equivalent of a 10 wg.
I have a 6 dex icarus 2. It wouldn't be worth it to buy an 8 or 10 dex for 20 mil more, and I don't think it would be worth it to buy a pink cape for 50 mil -_-
My bow... isn't great but it's manageable.
And my earrings give no bonus at all.

I mostly wanted the metus for the looks since I don't intend on playing that often. People have been saying that prices for metuses will go down because monsters in the future will drop them? Should I just wait and hold on to my crappy arund? Thing is, I have the str gear to equip the metus, but I also have dex gear for power if I stick with the arund so it's like my safety you could say. Bahhh -_-

Re: MapleStory

30-40 mil for 11 dex shoes? I got a 9 dex for 7.5 mil, which was extremely cheap, but i doubt 11 dex shoes are 40 mil.

Yellow capes/Pink capes made dex capes cheap. You could pick up a 2 attack (prices went down, i see one for 20 mil clean) or 10+ dex yellow cape for not too much.

Oh, and zhelms are 50 mil in scania. Yay for losing 35 mil on zhelm price drops.

Re: MapleStory

I'm just going off what I saw in FM. Thing is about the cape is that I need the speed from my icarus 2.

And I guess I could buy a zhelm but I would rather get other things, seeing as I don't use CS and I think the zhelm is extremely ugly haha.

Happened in Bera too. Dropped from about 130m normal too. ****ing El Zakum decided to switch to Onyx Apple based runs instead of Meso Explosion based and rather than simply pocketing the difference, they decided that they needed to massively undercut everyone else and ruin it for ME based runs.
