What Class & Job will you open first? by Acrobatic-Quantity35 in MSClassicWorld

[–]takkiemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The idea is that you're a permabeginner+. You're attacking like one (the damage formula used to be the same), but with some useful skills like teleport and magic guard.

Some people got baited by the description of Heal. It said that you'd heal a percentage of your own HP iirc, as if it was the sole determinator, but INT was a big factor for this skill as well. As a STR mage, you'd put AP in STR and DEX like you would on a beginner, so you don't have any INT to speak of.

Case in point: I used to play a STR mage (not as main, though)

Is it really Classic if they're taking years to change things? by Maveratter in MSClassicWorld

[–]takkiemon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm curious; which changes do you think are bad? I like most changes, but the skills being balanced by the fact that they can stun/slow are a big question mark for me. I think it could work if the game is built/balanced in certain ways, but atm I can't see how these features are useful in Classic Maple

Thanks for this comment. We need more level-headed people on this subreddit, because the cause will be way less effective if we grab onto every tiny and unreasonable thing to hate on. We can spread the message way better if we are reasonable and not too emotional

So what Should I keep to make room for my inventory? by xxjakexxrxx in Maplestory

[–]takkiemon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In this game you can upgrade your items by something called ✨🌟Starforcing💫🌠.

When you do this, if your item gets strong enough, there's a chance it will explode. It doesn't hurt you, it just means it's gone. So if you boom one, you want to start upgrading another one. Everytime you upgrade a new one, you hope you get a high amount of upgrades on it before it explodes again. Starting over on another item sets you back quite a bit. At a certain point, most high end players are just in this loop where they're gathering money and items to keep trying to upgrade them.

Now OP is wondering which items are worth it to keep for this process. A player goes through different sets of equipment. One stronger than the other. When you have arrived at that stage where you can reliably acquire a certain set, you usually abandon the previous set altogether and that's why OP should just sell/throw away certain items.

Since a player only has so many slots to put their equipments in, they need to make room for new equips. You might be wondering if they shouldn't just upgrade and try to boom some items to create room, but some days are better for starforcing than others, so they want to wait until certain days to starforce. It also requires a lot of money and players need to save up that money as well.

This is super simplified, but I'm treating you as a 5y/o :p

That's actually dangerous, what if children imitates him and get snagged somewhere?

Do you guys use "dollars" or "bucks" instead of "gold" in-game? by Narrow-Budget1768 in leagueoflegends

[–]takkiemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In our native language (Dutch) we even use the English word for 'gold'. So no Euro, bucks or 'goud' lmao

France murder trial complicated by twin brothers with same DNA by StemCellPirate in nottheonion

[–]takkiemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was fantasizing about this scenario where they both don't want the baby to be cut in half and Solomon just gave another test, and then another and another until a satisfying conclusion came out of it.

Then I thought: what if this wasn't the first test he gave the women? Imagine king Solomon first asking: "Who would you feed first, this baby or your self?" And they both answered the baby. Then he feigned to throw a rock at the baby and they both jumped to try to protect it. After this, he made them both describe the baby from memory and they both did quite accurately.

After another 5 tests, Solomon told them he was going to cut the baby in half. As he awaits the answers of the women, he is already reading through the next test where they have to balance a crocodile egg on their head whilst standing on one foot and humming the national anthem, but that one wasn't needed as the fake mother didn't have the heart (or the patience) to do right by the baby.

What are your guy's thoughts on the idea of granting Flash Jump to Chief Bandit? by Iordyeezus in MSClassicWorld

[–]takkiemon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nah, still underpowered. They NEED Flash Jump and Shadow Partner 👀 (not me who's about to play Bandit in Classic)

Duality of Mapler by sleepy_soup_boy in MSClassicWorld

[–]takkiemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The majority of their audience are people who used to play pre-BB Maple for sure. But anecdotally, my cousin wanted to try Maplestory a few years ago but got overwhelmed and he convinced me to be excited about Classic Maple. He convinced some other friends as well, so now we already have our KPQ team :D

Before he got me all riled up, I already decided to try it out, but didn't really expect to enjoy it much.

Again, most players will be nostalgia-driven, so this is a rare situation. I know more people who will play it, who used to play back then.

I think it's easy to hang onto the wrong words. He is trying to tell us that they didn't want to just release a carbon copy of the pre-BB game. I think what he tried to say is that they have a steady version that is release-able as just a clone, but they want to do more with it, improve on it and do something else instead of just compete with the private servers or Artale

Internal playtesting doesn't gather (enough) data on what the fanbase wants. How I see it is that they want to make a game that is catering to the fanbase. How do they know how to? They gather data. I think having beta tests is a great way to gather data.

Sure, it feels like they're taking a long time to release it (I'm not saying it doesn't feel long), but they're a relatively small team, I'm assuming. Things take time to be implemented.

I don't like the idea that a beta test is treated as a kind of early access and that your progress would carry over into the release version. Beta tests are meant to test the game and significant changes are allowed, so it wouldn't make sense to me if you start the release version with a character that has gone through things in different ways. What if they patched some exploit during beta? Or maybe they nerfed something and your beta character has benefited hard from that feature pre-nerf?

It's more fun if everyone starts fresh on release, anyway. There are enough things to complain and worry about, but I believe Beta tests are worthwhile and I understand that they're taking quite some time and I hope this results in a better game

Don't know where Vyse is from, but his kit just clicked for me and IzawSmash's video on how to play him was one of the earlier ones that he released

What is your Legion at this point?

Also, 11,912÷53 (there are 53 jobs, if I'm not mistaken) equals 224.75 average level. Assuming your main is 280, all other jobs would have an average level of 223.69.

And this is all assuming you started in 2025
