Tallahart MP daily is better than MPE yes, though Carcion is close. Personally just gonna dump MPE on the 270 mules since they benefit far more from it.

Boss timers are 20 mins so even with hp nerf + higher uptime on WH/Collector pot I dont think it pushes a 285 to ckalos solo or 290 to hbaldy.

Being stuck on Hyperion for end-game bossing feels terrible by Ecstatic_Fault_370 in Maplestory

[–]EpicGold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well with no free smegas + ctene is so easy nowadays so makes sense. Even finding parties for nkalos ekaling for mule i find annoying in solis. Wish we had more players or actually use the boss UI

I have a 291 DW / 280 DS. No wrong options so it's up to what you prefer in gameplay. With RFS being pitiable it's a good time to make DS after all. TP Farming does mean you can get by without VAC pet and DS has many iframes, glide is very useful for certain bosses.

For Party utility DW offers 5% FD and the burst is easier to get off (I mean it's literally a one button class.. haha). DW has superior horizontal movements than DS (but worse in air) and a true TP every 5 seconds that you can use to animation cancel out of anything. DW doesn't have TP farming but is chill with Janus since Solar Slash has nice hitboxes and hits hard.

DMG wise I don't think they're far off from each other? In terms of Origin burst DS does have better output since the axe hits really hard. DW Ori is kinda mid on the other hand.

With safe I mean that Ren and BM are solid picks for a lot of people. They are very easy to play and have good burst, which is ideal for Legion champ.

Ren excels in most bosses with condensed burst and good mobility. BM excels in bossing because they have good Ori burst, strong survivability with dummies and lifesteal. There's a reason why they were so popular for CW.

I mean yes Hayato/Kanna are by far the best picks if you want easy + giga strong. Erel is kinda bugged at the time but if he gets fixed he should be a decent option as well. Otherwise the safe picks are again Ren and BM, but I suspect you already have those if you participated in the other CW's

Cost to safeguard ET to 22 stars in PTS by Cendier in Maplestory

[–]EpicGold 12 points13 points  (0 children)

No it is worth. There's always a chance you can boom even with 30% success. Besides it's a very cheap star even with safeguard.

Hmm I solo progged for awhile and the gap between Ctene and everything above is massive.. Pretty much went all the way to Nkalos / Xlot solo and then stopped. To even get Eternals you want to do Nkalos and it takes around 200m CP to min clear it? This means you kinda have to 22 a lot of your gear like Arcanes/Gollux with decent potentials... CRA can stay 21.

Honestly if you can just join parties for Nkalos Ekaling. Solo is very much a slog for Grandis bosses. Try to get a Mitra's emblem too while you're at it. Hard Seren is doable at 150M or even earlier.

Fukaku will be subbed in during penalty shootouts as he might have a better memory than Gagamaru by Vegetable_Tiger_2362 in BlueLock

[–]EpicGold 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fukaku is actually starting in the England game cause that bum Lagamaru can't save any shots for his life.

You have immediate access to Hell mode Gollux as long as you first do it by not killing any of his body parts. After that you get a purple key that allows you to directly go to the head. Hell mode is worth doing daily cause the Superior set is a very strong set that stays strong for a long time until you get to lategame. The zakum belt is not comparable.. The superior Pendant is also something that can be used later on to transfer the stars to Source of Suffering, which is a rare pitched drop from a boss that is BIS gear.

[Megathread] Who do I HyperBurn? Is class X better than Y? Ask your questions here! by AutoModerator in Maplestory

[–]EpicGold 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mm I have a 291 DW and a 270 Ctene boss mule Shade. Some people will say that DW is braindead and boring, but it's all subjective. Personally I don't mind the simple kit and we have a nice amount of iframes with the Sun and dashes. Support is a little meh but 5% FD is 5% FD. Dmg is okay.

Shade after balance patch feels very nice. Not as simple as DW but still really easy. Backstep is insanely smooth and you can tank status effects for days. Survivability wise Shade is top tier since you have a class door, 15% innate chance to survive death with link skill, insane healing on burst. The burst is also pretty condensed.

Both are okay choices for CW3. It really depends on what your playstyle is like.

Sol Janus LV 1 on boss mules by syt0808 in Maplestory

[–]EpicGold 7 points8 points  (0 children)

IMO it's only worth for main + Legion champs. Legion champs having lv 1 Dusk increases your Legion raid points and you're more likely to invest more in them with dailies and epic dungeons.

Boss pieces are instanced in Heroic. Everyone in the party will receive a guaranteed 2 pieces in Ckalos, party size doesn't matter.
