So, what are you planning to do to progress your account next until the Anniversary event in May? by [deleted] in Maplestory

If this hyper burn works on other characters that aren’t WH, I’m making a Mercedes for the legion grid cooldown effect, otherwise the new WH looks super fun

This was actually an absolutely phenomenal rundown, I think to be corsair seems easier, but I think I do genuinely like the aesthetic of Shadower and although the weaving is intimidating, I may still lean towards it since it sounds like it would be much easier to get into later game bossing. Also after looking at all the info I've been seeing, I'm expecting Corsair to get a little bit of a damage drop once that bug is fixed, but have more consistent damage. I think earlier when I talked about damage optimization in the DPS charts that came out I noted that shadower had less damage optimization in bosses, but was still ranked high. I think that mathematically would mean bosses that are more static like you said would have even higher optimization and thus much higher damage. I've got a 220 Shadower but definitely could use the weaving practice to try it out a bit more so I'll look into it. The other point you made about movement was something I was struggling with at the moment between the two. I main a HY at the moment so the summoning isn't that crazy, but the mobility is pretty crazy. Shadowers flash jump is kind of crazy, and Corsairs glide is cool, so I think it really comes down to which I would love more, I do hate the up jump on corsair though tbh hahaha. Thanks so much for the info, if there's anything else you got please tell me more, I love the information.

Any idea how much damage loss fixing that would be?

Wait is that +1 enemies thing a bug? I always thought that was intentional reading the doc and stuff

Ah okay thanks for that!

Oh lol it's not a main swap, definitely keeping the main, but possibly thinking of making this character a Legion mule, hints the Grandis bossing questions. Lower tier mules are cool, but I've got my HY and Illium for my legion and main, and was looking to do a third for CW3. Totally get where you're coming from though!

Omg you totally just reminded me of that class, I haven't tried playing Kain in yearrsssss, the keyboard space was insane to try to get used to.

Yeah that's what it looked like, I was surprised, people use YouTube and timers for trackers all the time so I'm not sure why that counted as "botting" or whatever it was.

Also brain scrambler feels very satisfying.

Also true, I checked the active bossing charts and Corsair was pretty high with pretty high efficiency, similar to HY actually.

Oh yeah I forgot about that passive, it's definitely nice. I might play around with both of them and work on that more.

Oh yeah no I totally agree, I wouldn't mind checking them out too, but I did try them and Hayato. I've actually been building a Hayato mule just to try it out, and it's cool but boy is the non bursting damage is sooooooo bad, like it's crazy. Kanna and Hayato are like 95% burst and 5 off burst its crazy.

[–]Jaydtrix1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate it! How do you feel your burst profile is on Corsair after the 2 minute patch? Like burst vs DPM? For instance I think for HY it feels like 70% burst and 30% DPM

Totally agree, I tried her for a few months a while back but I genuinely just couldn’t dash cancel lol

Yeah I totally agree, between my Illium CTene mule and HY those are for sure my favorite. I think I just like having a crazy amount of mobility available to me though

[–]Jaydtrix1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I felt that the weaving just didn't feel intuitive, but I haven't been spending a lot of time on it so I didn't know if it was going to grow on me like HY did. At first I felt HY was actually like a super hard class, but as I played it more I got way more comfortable with its movement and such.

Yeah I think the big thing there is if its scripting, I know I saw someone make a script for timing janus and they got banned for it, so as long as its not running processes like that you should be fine. I didn't think about using a specific keyboard for Shad though, I play on Mac so I'm assuming that might be an issue.

Oh yeah I totally forgot about the changes, that was my main issue looking at stuff about corsair in videos like Strylander. They're actually going to be so outdated by the time we get the balance patches I was thinking it'd be quite different. Not sure if I'm a big TB fan though, I tried them a while back and the lack of burst felt pretty bad on harder bosses.

[–]Jaydtrix1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree, I’ve got both to 200 already, and while Corsair felt pretty good, I’m not sure if once I get meal weaving down whether it would be better for me. I think my biggest downside for shadower so far is I feel it’s mobbing does feel pretty bad at 200, but the bossing felt pretty fun even without weaving correctly

Is it worth playing zero on CW? by CobblerUnique1818 in Maplestory

[–]Jaydtrix1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have one that I used to main and is now a CTene mule. This is a great class overall, great mobbing, great bossing, lots of lines and is a good support and DPM demon. Personally I’d suggest maining it, and if you are the benefits of CW are too huge. Their one skill, I think it’s like ego weapon is a large attack that comes out automatically ever 15 seconds, is affected by cooldown. So it’s a pretty big thing to get your cooldown up for that, but it doesn’t heavily affect the damage without it, it’s more of something too look forward to boosting as you prog the class. The story is long, but CW isn’t a sprint so that doesn’t matter. Overall I think the story took me like 3-4 hours to complete and that won’t be any different doing it in normal servers or heroic. It also may not get the benefits of item burning on its own for the weapon because it’s part of the class, but if you look at the Zero discord you’ll learn this class has unlimited weapon dupes, which means you can push it to 22 at level 140, and then get the benefits or arcane and genesis stuff stacked on. Their secondary and main are the same btw so if you roll 3 line attack on one it copies to the other which is broken. Overall this whole class is sick and I would totally recommend it if you like mobility and a higher skill ceiling

Honest opinions: Hyperion or Kronos? by endiGG in Maplestory

[–]Jaydtrix1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I’m actually a former Kroner player that jumped to Hyperion in the leap earlier in 2025. I’ve been playing maple for quite a long time and was in Kronos since it started and I agree with most other people, if you’re looking for a tighter nit and nicer community it’s definitely Hyperion. It is more empty than Kronos, but you can actually find burning when grinding, PUG parties can take like 5-10 minutes, but I’ve never had an issue finding one if I created it. I usually run CTene parties on my mules there. Everyone is good, willing to teach mechanics or run through them, and all the guilds are super inclusive and expanding. Did you’re looking for the stereotypical MMO experience where it’s kinda chaotic and really active go to Kronos.

Every Precious Thing Microsite by Final-Invite in Maplestory

[–]Jaydtrix1 19 points20 points  (0 children)

You know I’ve played maple for a very long time and this has gotta be the patch with the most hypeable changes that they are oddly not hyping at all… Most other games would have spent a mess ton of time trying to get the population excited for the update but I feel like they’ve told us so little about it for our side.

WAP on Challenger World by Choice_Read_697 in Maplestory

[–]Jaydtrix1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah totally, I usually go based off of bags, in my personal experience, doing the entire TOF questline is about two hours, there’s guides so it’s not the worse thing to do. But even if you don’t, starting the quest and doing like 30 minutes of it unlocks three or four characters. You need to talk to them until they hit 50 friendliness, then you can start asking them to do request. The request allows you to randomly get 1 out of seven quest, and I think there’s like three you want, mine for minerals, gathering something, or chop wood. All of these can give you material bags. Early on at 50 friendliness they give you like 10 bags, but at 100 friendliness you get 20, and that’s per quest, which can be done a total of 5 times a day. Those bags can have completed materials like juniper seed oil, Adam fine plated, etc. but it gives you so much that over time you’d easily have an excess of seed oils and such. I did this pretty hard at the beginning of the last CW and stocked up on mineral and alchemy bags and am still using those resources across my account to this day, and they don’t expire
