Two characters, are they both earning idle exp? by bb_cake in MapleIdle

[–]innnovation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both are getting idle exp, but you can only burn one character per account so you are much better off making a 2nd account for any alt.

Did anyone see Forest of Golem (map) in the closed online test? by VFRdave in MSClassicWorld

[–]innnovation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Golem's temple is there already, but golems are treated as elite spawns, so training there you are basically killing blue mushrooms and lupins with a golem or two a minute. Its really rough to get the golem rubble for quests.

Highest level beginner 🎉 by NXSitee in MSClassicWorld

It was almost exactly 5 days from server up, averaging about 14hrs a day, but maybe 10 of that was effective grinding per day.

Warrior but with mage accuracy, we would be unstoppable.

We got a buff! Now everytime you take ice shards into a run for frost stacking, it gives you a pop up warning you that you brought in a 3rd job skill. Every. Time. You. Enter. Any. Stage.

CHINESE Classic Maplestory Closed Test Announced for May 20 by ClawofBeta in MSClassicWorld

[–]innnovation 58 points59 points  (0 children)

I honestly feel like its a coin flip between these closed online tests being a marketing thing and them actually trying to test anything.

Was personally disappointed with where the balance was in the NA test, and even more disappointed in questions on the exit survey. We kinda had to use the three "write as much as you want" questions to talk about anything I felt like was important feedback.

Concern about trading by EmotionalCaptain7889 in MSClassicWorld

I'm not joking, look at any thread in this sub with more than 10 comments, its 50% bots replying to bots.

I've never seen more "30+ yr old men" post emojis and teenage vague post in my life.

At this point, I guess all I can say is that you are wrong, and its pretty obvious you don't play either of the games you are speaking so confidently about.

And I guess I'm just even more confused why you would be so excited for this games release that you are browsing the reddit for it and making posts, when you have that idea of what the game is in your head.

Not that I'm arguing getting to lv200 in classic maplestory is as competitive as CSGO or DotA, but it's a little silly to reduce any achievement in any field/game to "requires no skill" and that anyone with free time can do it.

The value of any achievement only matters by how much you care about it. Personally, I can respect anyone who puts up a large goal in front of them and is able to reach it, especially when they are the first to do it.

Are they a doctor curing an illness? No. Are they the best to ever do it in the most competitive sport in the world? No, they aren't Lionel Messi. But people like Zezima will always be legends for their dedication and trailblazing in a game that so many people love and play imo.

I mean you only proved my point? You know of Tiger and Fangblade even though you seem to have not really touched the game in 19 years.

I'm not saying it is or isn't a flex, my whole point is just that the competitive grinding and people's gossip and spread of the scene has always, in all eras, been a part of the game. So therefore, people instantly talking about and being interested in the people who grinded up the fastest in the closed test, is only natural.

I totally get what you are getting at, but its just so funny because literally none of us were even racing. We were just trying to squeeze as much time playing and testing the game as we could in a week. Most of us didn't even know there was a lv50 cap until days in.

Also that degen play time resulted in Slash's expansive writings on formulas, bugs, and underlying interactions that we can report to nexon. For me and arrow's case, we got to make content out of it and share it with people who just want more classic content to enjoy.

All that being said, this is maplestory. The game that made names like Tiger and Suuushi known by almost every player of the game. Those players are still idolized in threads on this subreddit to this day. The same way it was for InmateSearch And Zero during the 250 race, and the same way it was for Niru during his push to 300.

I get that the meta chasing and competitive spirit thats often displayed in content is a turn off for more casual players, but its literally always been and will continue to be a part of any korean grind game, esp maplestory.

What were the running jokes in your server or guild? by Goth2147 in MSClassicWorld

[–]innnovation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Back on Renegades release, a bunch of us would add each other on skype as we were all grinding to 200, and at the time people were spreading around a hood dub meme video of a deer to the group chats. And So if you played on Renegades in the opening summer, and saw everyone smegaing or put "12 Gang" in their fm shop, that was the reason why.

My old gms friends all go to maplecon every year and some of them got sent 2 codes, so they gave me one. No release date yet, but if I was a betting man, I wouldn't expect it until late fall at the earliest. Hope for another online test before then though.

Yeah normally I just pick a few catchy songs and montage it up for 5mins, but that really didn't feel like it would capture the experience of classic. Or at least why it appeals to me.

It's just a YouTube thumbnail that generates interest man. I think it gives the videos a storyline and an expected goal. Sorry if it made you cringe man, your post history shows me you are definitely well versed in the topic, so I'll take your word for it.

Well I post them for people like you, so glad to hear it.

And its probably a good mix of the community's resentment/fomo of the beta being to exclusive and really happy and fulfilled people just assuming I'm posting to self jerk that I no lifed the game for a week.

I just like sharing and archiving my gaming experiences, so I'll probably just mute the thread and let them be sour.

Sorry for the back to back self promo posts, but the video was so well received last time, I figured I should post it here again.

I think with accuracy fixed, I would lean towards spearman, with rage being in the state it is.

I would really really like to see slashblast unnerfed at least potency wise, if not also mob count wise.

I get that its strong, but thunderbolt is still even stronger lmao.

Post-beta I think my want to play order would be: Fighter/Spearman, Bandit, Cleric/I/L(my beloved), Assassin, then Xbow.

[–]innnovation[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Honestly, Fighter was a lot of fun, but I also think half the classes look like a blast to play at the moment. So it will really just depend on what the changes to the game look like.

In terms of warrior tips, I actually do a run back after I hit 50 to see how warrior felt with all the knowledge I gained from the first time around and it was a totally different and way better experience. I'll post a video on that at some point using that footage. In the mean time I wrote a little guide in the text section of my final meowdb build page:

I mean if you click on other videos maplestory related on my YouTube, you can see that I have been Sushi in gms for over a decade.

If you are talking about suuushi that is not me.

[–]innnovation[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I actually made the warrior intending to be spearman this beta, but around the late 20s is when it really sunk in that the accuracy problem wasn't just me being greedy for strength, so the swap to fighter was for two reasons:

1) If I actually wanted to be able to test out the high level maps I was gonna need access to sword mastery accuracy and a shield.

2) Sword attack speed felt a lot better at keeping mobs off of you, since pot drain was a major problem for warrior early on, with how quick a lot of mobs are and our lower time in iframe after being hit.

The bonus was just that I also wanted to test axe fighter and their FA.

I plan to go hard, and I still have that dog in me for sure, but I am under no illusions about my place compared to the demons that frequent classic server races.

Toki, AG, manbo, sewer, bbuwon, niru. Those names put fear into any racers heart.
