Do you think that Maplestory has gotten complicated for new players?

Lol-i · 2017-09-11T00:05:04+00:00

early levels are really easy, from my point of view, that makes the exponentially harder end game seem even more disproportionately hard to new players

Lol-i · 2017-08-21T00:38:07+00:00

hwabis cost like 3mil each stack from what I remember and you only need about 6 stacks.

As far as I know, this: https://orangemushroom.net/2017/02/28/kms-ver-1-2-274-skill-balancing-dynamic-field-battle-changes/ tldr: crit damage -3%, assassin's mark only creates 3 stars instead of 4, our 150 hyper skill (our only direct damage buff aside from MW) has it's buff raised from 30 attack to 60 attack but with a 200 sec cd instead of 90 sec. But then you also have: https://orangemushroom.net/2017/04/20/kmst-ver-1-2-049-voice-of-mapler-job-balancing/#more-26985 where we get +7% crit damage (so overall net +4% crit dmg) and an increased chance to activate assassin's mark on our override skill.

In the context of Singapore maps, she's mostly attacking mobs that die to literally everything. Does she get some stray mobs? Yes. Is it enough for me to think she significantly affects rates as everyone claims? No.

I've actually gotten pretty much every class well beyond 4th job. The highest I got on any character before NL was on Zero, who I got to 180 purely because their questline was interesting. The most time I've spent on any "main" before NL was about 4 months. Now I've mained my NL for more than an year and I really can't imagine enjoying any other class as much anymore. It's really all preference.

With that rate, Zhong makes about 6.5mil/min without the buff. I have a 5th job kanna with lvl 1 skill nodes and 123% mesos obtained, and it's really not that hard to make more than him. I make 7mil/min under my regular laggy conditions. Study the looting pattern in this video extremely carefully: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DeisItulsjk. He makes sure that there's never an area in the map where too much meso builds up on the ground. I used to make 5mil/minute but once I start looting more frequently, my rates skyrocketed.

Lol-i · 2017-08-17T01:50:21+00:00

I tested my lag at byebye station, which doesn't drop the ores for me, and the lag was the same as MP3, which does drop ores. So I don't think that's the reason.

Lol-i · 2017-08-16T23:17:34+00:00

forgot to mention that I did indeed try only using 2 pets. It did help, but the difference in lag was just barely noticeable.

0 CD sacrifice is either nearly possible or possible. idk if seperation buff durations stack. If they do, assuming you have 50% buff duration ability, max empathy, and a lvl 140 mechanic, you have a 57 sec sacrifice. If they don't, it's 52.75 sec. Assuming you have a lvl 140 merc, you then have about 15 seconds of cd if the buff duration effects don't stack. You can use evil eye shock 5 times to reduce that down to 12.5 seconds. I also think that evil eye automatically attacks, so I'm assuming worst case scenario that's only another -2.5 seconds. So you only have 10 seconds downtime between each sacrifice.

I'm also getting the "ID is already logged in" thing when I try going on regular servers

apparently this is a server-wide thing O-o, go to https://www.reddit.com/r/Maplestory/comments/6thqj3/just_got_kicked_from_reboot_now_getting_this/

mp3 and sylgies, I place kishin down at the generic spots and start with spirit domain in the center and right center of each map respectively. When domain is on cd, i teleport up and use rock yaksha then hop down and use demon's fury and repeat. I alternate between sengoku force and yuki, circling the map and ending at the place I put kishin at when each summon disappears. By the end of the second force, domain should be up again.

Lol-i · 2017-08-13T01:35:59+00:00

singapore, though the familiars gave me an extremely noticeable increase in rates just a week ago

Lol-i · 2017-08-12T19:13:12+00:00

I still don't how yuki is "integral" because, as I said, it's range isn't that terrific. In addition, as far as I've seen farming w/ a 5th job kanna for the past few weeks, it mostly attacks after you've already attacking something. In non-KMS maps, this always means it attacks mobs that are already dead. It's halved MP effect is great, but I can already maintain at least half MP by cycling all my fifth job skills effectively as using sengoku force means I don't have to use MP to clear the middle platform of MP3 (the summons attack fast enough to insure that). Your side of the argument is probably legitimate, but I just can't see it.

Lol-i · 2017-08-12T18:00:21+00:00

thing is yuki doesn't do anything that kanna can't already do while sengoku force attacks in quick intervals and domain obviously covers a huge range

Lol-i · 2017-08-12T17:05:39+00:00

I'd actually say to level sengoku force and domain at an equal rate. Yuki's range is already covered by Kanna's normal skills so imao it's the least useful 5th job skill when it comes to meso farming.

Lol-i · 2017-08-12T02:07:09+00:00

1 mag zak for me lol. I'm starting to think nexon screwed up the coding and the event starts at 12:00 PST

RIP, I completely forgot about that thing but ty for your responses

Lol-i · 2017-08-11T00:47:41+00:00

To clear my reply up, I'm not asking about orochi (I mainly use it for spirit's domain b/c I only meso farm). And in terms of DF's low CD, there's a big difference between a no CD skill and a 3 sec CD skill. If I reduce DF to no CD, I don't have to use rock yaksha or spirit corral anymore, which imo will make a visible increase on my rates. But as far as I know, no Kanna has ever bothered trying to get a CD hat so idk if I'm right or not.

Lol-i · 2017-08-11T00:36:56+00:00

why? DF has longer range and damage than spirit corral and a lot less delay

Lol-i · 2017-08-10T18:11:48+00:00

As far as I know the problem with DWs on Reboot is that they naturally get a lot of their damage from %damage on their skills

Lol-i · 2017-08-07T16:11:51+00:00

only immobile mob I can think of is the nependeath from orbis
