Reboot is basically a revisiting of the old hardcore MS where there's zero pay-2-win.
What class are you going to play?
>>318725141
Help what do I play they added too much shit to the game but I want to feel good grinding and chatting.
>>318725141
I want to play an Explorer, but which should I play? I want to try Page, did they get buffs?
merc.
waiting.
HOLY SHIT
TURN ON CNN
THE SERVERS AREstill fucking down
get your shit together nexon
what classes are there gonna be
part of the reason MS got bad was because they added all those flavor-of-the-month classes that were OP as shit
>>318725289
At this rate, they might break their 13 hour record.
>>318724070
We're the changes to DKs life steal that big of a deal? I wanted to play Hero but was debating on trying DK instead.
>>318725336
Everything but Zero and Beast Tamer
They're also releasing a new class soon-ish(?) who seems to be basically Magneto the wizard
>tfw don't know what class to pick
somebody pick for me
Whats the point of grinding for items if you cant trade with other people?
What the fuck is the point of mesos now?
>>318725606
Play an old school thief. That's what I'm doing. Night lord best.
>>318725606
Unleash your inner American and become a corsair.
>>318725618
...buying better gear and potions?
>>318725618
New equips (enemies only drop your class' equips)
Buying stuff (Non-cosmetic cash shop items can be bought with Mesos now)
Is this a good/fun class?
Or should I just go with Corsair?
Bowmaster or Marksman? Marksman is cooler but BM got a lot of buffs so I dunno.
>>318725665
That actually sound fun. Night lord always was the OG super edgey cool class for cool kids.
>>318725678
I already have a 200 corsair
>>318725792
Only play corsair if you fucking hate yourself. Its by far the worst pirate class. Jet is neat but garbage.
>>318726028
Is it so garbage that nobody will want to play with me?
Haven't played since Pirates came out. Are any classes gender locked? I want to play as a qt samurai girl.
>>318726138
It's so garbage you won't even want to play with yourself.
>>318726221
just angelic buster
>zero pay 2 win
>level 150s can buy meso with real money
lmao
>>318726138
Only out of pity.
>>318726320
1. Zero is locked in Reboot
2. They removed that shit
>>318725336
There's a bunch of classes, but they all have cross-over link skills so there's some incentive to play a bit of everrything.
Current DPS list (take with a grain of salt): https://itzdarkvoid.wordpress.com/2015/09/09/kms-v-1-2-240-boss-dpm-chart/#more-2254
Link Skills: http://ayumilove.net/maplestory-link-skills-guide/
>>318726320
They removed it recently due to fan outcry, try to keep up.
>>318726232
>>318726330
I think I'll play it anyway and regret it later.
Garbage, it's basically a singleplayer version of Maplestory. Why would you want to play a single player version of an MMORPG?
>>318726320
>he doesnt know
end yourself.
>>318726407
>maplestory.txt
>>318726460
>No trading means it's singleplayer
What kind of retarded logic is this? By that reasoning, Destiny and Diablo 3 are also single player games because there's no trading.
Is Aran any fun?
>>318726407
Good luck.
You might need this later:1 (800) 273-8255
>>318726460
No trading doesn't make it single player
>>318726585
Yes, I haven't played it in a while though. It was a blast when I first tried it.
>>318726320
mfw I don't read any form of news and still make assumptions
>>318726585
Enjoy your early arthritis.
None of the classes really require "skill", right? I guess I should just build a Bishop so people in parties want me around, right?
I might also make a few other characters, but still
Maplestory: Casualized facebook generation singleplayer edition
>>318726796
Bishop and Kanna are both viable for this reason.
>tfw can't choose between Kaiser or Thunder Breaker
Aren't all of these changes pretty much exactly what happened with Diablo 3?
>>318726796
Bishop and Kanna are the go to classes for whoring yourself. Both aren't very fun to play desu
>>318726815
>removal of P2W is casualized
>locking out use of the most broken character in the game is facebook gen casualization
>no trading = singleplayer
If you like the current way things are you don't have to play on the Reboot server
It's always funny to watch these MMORPGs get fucked up by their developers, lose their playerbase and then beg older players to come back with "reboots" and "old school" editions. Then those servers end up dead within a couple of months.
>>318726924
fun to play is relative, if you've never played MS before or haven't played recently, Kanna is fun. The moment you get the taste of a true DPS class then you'll realize their shit, but if you just stay blissfully ignorant you can still enjoy yourself.
>>318726815
Here's that (You) that you're looking for.
>>318726924
>for whoring yourself
perfect
>Try to log into reboot today
>See this
ALIVE
>>318727140
I hear the fucking soundtraack to this game in my head now. Thanks.
>>318726924
>>318727092
I heard Kanna is a lot like Battle Mage. Is this true? Because if so, I've played with a Battle Mage a long time ago and it was fun as fuck.
>>318727092
Yeah, but doesn't "DPS" just involve mashing buttons? I had a Mechanic and an I/L mage in normal MS, and both mostly just consisted of mashing buttons.
>dead
Should I play Mabinogi instead?
>>318727195
maybe all that people made their servers melt
>>318726375
Adventurer's don't get an equivalent to link skills? Makes me think leveling one is kind of a waste of effort.
>>318727256
Anon every game is just mashing buttons.
>>318727256
High DPS can be a super-powerful one-attack move that kills all enemies on the screen, or it could be spamming buttons. It simply means "Damage Per Second"
It's still going to be a grindfest though
>>318727449
maple right now is literally devoid of grind, you dumbshit. you can get to lvl 250 in a week.
>>318725840
PLEASE RESPOND RIGHT NOW
>>318727536
Why would you want grinding though
>>318727618
didn't say I wanted grind. that guy said it'd "still be a grindfest" but right now it's literally the opposite of a grindfest.
>>318727618
Grinding is a fresh and new experience in 2015, where every MMORPG is a get to max level in less than 50 hours type game now. Sometimes you just want to turn on some music and relax while grinding.
>>318727553
How important is seeing your face?
>>318727771
tru dat, I'd rather spend time with friends in party quests "grinding" so we have fun at least, instead of what's happening now: everyone's focusing on leveling themselves and the whole social aspect is gone
>>318727771
This does actually sound kind of nice. You've convinced me, Anon
>>318727830
your character's face? somewhat important, is that actually a factor?
>>318727936
Yes because without cosmetic weapons, crossbows cover your face.
>>318727927
That's what /v/'s autism guild will be for anon
>>318728003
oh I see what you mean. yeah I don't really care about that, it's fine by me because you only really hold it that way when idle and i'm not a henehoe
Just go Marksman then.
Personally I thought crossbows looked cooler than bows so that's why I chose to be one.
>>318725141
>played this ages ago.
>never got past level 11
>not sure if worth playing.
Alright, I'll try it.
>>318725141
>no benefit playing explorer
well there goes my interest
Is leveling easier or harder in Reboot compared to the normal servers?
>>318725141
But anon, there was always pay2win in MapleStory, even in the old hardcore MS
>>318728357
Pic a xenon or mechanic they are fun.
>>318728436
Play a wild hunter u tard
It was up for two hours before the servers sent down everywhere because of constant crashing. All the channels were maxed out.Join the wait suffering over on the /vg/ thread
>>318728479
It depends because mobs are harder but give more EXP, so it really depends on how you get EXP (quests/farming) and how much.
Do they still have those Cygnus Knights who have a lowered level cap for some reason?
>>318727251
Yes, both have a glorified autoattack that improve every advancement, but Kanna actually uses other skills, but has other resource instead of MP, so you can't spam to your heart's content.
It has the best grind skill, better that holy symbol, the best looking skill effects, and unless they changed it on GMS, doesn't have an annoying animu dub voice like all new classes do.
>>318728729
Yeah, but now their level cap is 250.
>>318728598
Does wild hunter even have SE?
>>318728729
no, everyone has same lvl cap (250) now.
>>318725365
at this rate?
you mean 1 second per second just like every other maintenance?
>>318728998
Yes.
>>318729082
You don't know English very well do you?
>>318729271
I don't, sorry.
What does at this rate mean then?
Does anyone know if we'll still have access to a bank to trade items between our characters?
Sin or bandit?

The way things are going
So what's the "fun" class and the "DPS" class now? I haven't played this game in years. Are bishops still leech whores? Also is there some kind of resource I can use to catch myself up on all the updates? I'm so lost now
Hayato worth making now?
>tfw you cant rebind the movement from the arrow keys to WASD
Hey guys how do I play? It won't work.
>>318730005
Reboot hype was too strong. Servers blew up. Nexon is trying to fix it. No one can play right now.
>>318729881
>Are bishops still leech whores?
Yes.
Just look shit up on the maple wiki or youtube. the maplestory general on /vg/ probably has a pastebin too.
Is animal tamer worth it? Either that or dark knight, but I get bored easily and animal tamer has an ADHD amount of skills.
>>318729881
Every class is fun. This is some stuff I copied over from the general:
THREAD REMINDER THAT ONLY TO PLAY THESE CLASSES IF YOU DONT WANT TO BE A SHITTER
-bishop
-phantom
-kanna
-wildhunter
-mech
-shade
-battlemage
DO NOT MAIN OTHER CLASS AS THEY ARE FUCKING SHIT WITHOUT FUNDS
Only character cards worth getting:
DEMON AVENGER
KANNA
XENON
DEMON SLAYER
LUMI
PHANTOM
CANNONEER
HAYATO
CYGNUS LINK(ALL 5 CYGNUS CLASS STACKS INTO ONE LINK SKILL)
BEAST TAMER
JETT
ANGELIC BUSTER
ALSO BEST CHARACTER CARDS REMINDER
DO NOT TAKE ANY OF THOSE CARDS THAT SAYS ADD AATK OR DMG PER LVL, ITS SUPER SHIT, so no paladin card or bucc card
TAKE ALL CRIT DMG CARDS
TAKE ALL BOSS DMG CARDS
TAKE ALL STAT BOOST CARDS
YOU NEED A PIRATE DECK FOR IED(SHADE/XENON/MECH/AB)
YOU NEED A RESISTANCE DECK FOR STAT BOOST THAT STACK WITH POTENTIALS % STATS(DA,DS,WH)
LAST DECK SHOULD BE HAYATO KANA AND WHATEVER THE FUCK
I REPEAT DO NOT GET MISGUIDED BY "PER LVL" OR "(HP INTO ATTACK) DECK EFFECTS
ITS FUCKING SHIT AND DOESN'T WORK THE WAY IT'S WRITTEN
Why did they disallow permanent pets in Reboot? I noticed that they have permanent pets for sale right now in all other worlds, just not Reboot. Also, is anyone pissed the fuck off about the utter absence of decent NX equips in the Cash Shop? Or for that matter, the absence of Surprise Style Boxes?
>>318730254
pretty sure you can buy those with mesos now, hence their absence from the cash shop?
>>318730347
They said in the update notes you cannot get them at this time.
>>318730372
rip
>>318730184
>DO NOT MAIN OTHER CLASS AS THEY ARE FUCKING SHIT WITHOUT FUNDS
Funding isn't a thing in reboot so all of those classes are fine.
man, fuck this maintenance shit. I don't really feel like starting over in the reboot world, I just want to play my same character.
>>318730437
If funding isn't a thing you should pick classes that are innately strong than other classes assuming your gear won't be that great.
>>318730184
Literally going to doing the opposite of what you just posted.
Thanks for your well thought out input tho family.
>>318730254
also would like to know
>>318730574
I didn't type any of that out, some other min-maxer did.
>>318730184
considering maining a phantom, can i expect to feel like a real dps class or am i basically another support class
>>318730574
Have fun bossing with a party of 1,000 people.
What's the best class if I wish to be a cute little girlthat can support her onii-san?
>>318730793

You mean like nostalgia time, redownloading old games just cause?
Here comes my 1 month of guilty pleasure. Then back to WoW
>>318731247
When you level up alts they provide a card you can use on another character for buffs or some shit.

All of them are intersesting. Close your eyes and choose a class.
Wait. So, is Maple actually fun again? Does it still take a year to get levels once you reach the 50s with classic classes?
I'd love to play Assassin again.
Thinking of thunderbreaker because FUCKING WHALE OUT OF NO WHERE.
Aran or shade? Maybe a healer or a tankish person
>Tfw I've never even made it to 3rd job on any character, even on private servers
TFW EU doesn't get the update
>>318731895
Shade is great. Aran just got reworked and seem pretty cool though
>>318731886
>Thunderbreaker is a class
holy shit thanks for reminding me, anon. I want to punch things.
>>318731850
You can get to level 100 in a few days, the real grind is at 140+
>>318732013
I'm having a really hard time deciding between Thunder Breaker and Mechanic
If only Mechanic was a melee class it'd be a no brainer.
>>318730842
tfw i ever got this far
tiny me had a shit attention span
>>318732065
Mech
>>318731997
Fuck i used to play aran a lot and it used to be fun but shade looks cool
>>318732027
Nah man, the real grind starts at 180+.
At 140 you can level off normal HT soloing.
>>318732065
mech is great! just spam your machine gun and rockets and use your drill and you have it all down pat
>>318732065
I stopped playing when 120 was cap. Rejoined for a bit to jump on the Angelic Buster and Xenon hype.
Tried out Mechanic then, and didn't care for it. Despite loving mecha.
>>318731850
>Does it still take a year to get levels once you reach the 50s
No it only takes a few days to get to 150 but after that it takes forever. I think there are less than 100 people who are actually lv 250 in GMS.
what class has
>the highest hp
>the highest dmg (excluding zero)
>the highest burst (excluding zero)
>the highest defense
>>318732286
dark knight
>>318732373
Is he a big guy?
>>318732458
i'm a big guy
>>318732286
paladins are fucking tanks
also, if you don't want to use pots, like, ever, play a demon slayer (NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH DEMON AVENGER, THEY BURN HP POTS LIKE NIGGERS)
>>318725141
Haven't logged in for a million years and don't remember my pic, how do I change it?
>>318732720
you have it backwards. DA is the infinite HP
If I play this again (jesus fucking christ), I would want to play Shadower again. But man, it looks like they play totally different now. No band of thieves, no assaulter, etc. I know they're technically better now but I legit had so much fun with their play style.
Do they even explode coins anymore? That was so fun at Lion Heart Castle.
I feel like if I played again I would just get sad that I can't play it like I used to.
>seven hours
Nexon's giving the real nostalgia fix
>>318732838

Ive never played maplestory in my life but I want a grindy old school mmo experience, is this worth a shot

>>318732880
but uses like 15% of his hp for each fucking attack. go play a da and tell me they don't burn pots like pieces of shit
>>318732013
I was in between pirate and thunderbreaker, then I saw thunderbreakers vid and the melee for him was much better than pirate so I chose the more fun looking one.
I love fisting shit up the ass. Though, kaiser does look fun, maybe I'll try that one later.
>>318733063
yea
Personally go with Kanna.
[Update] We thank you for your patience and understanding while we continue to investigate the server stability issues occurring earlier today. We are preparing files to resolve the issues and will be testing them soon. We expect this maintenance to last 2 more hours. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Look around the main site account settings, looks like you can get it reset the same as a password.
>>318733102

![[I AM A ROBOT].gif](https://i.imgur.com/dsQig40.gif "[I AM A ROBOT].gif")
Should I give this a shot if I never played the original MapleStory?
Is it fun or is it banking on the fact that it's nostalgia bait?
>>318733560
You like it in the ass i see
Senpai, I'm a retard who's been gone too long, do I choose Mechanic because it looks cool or Fire/Poison Mage because of explorer nostalgia?
>>318733617
If you have something better to do go do it
>>318733560
what ever happened to mabigoogly
didn't it get raped by chinese people or something
>>318733617
Maplestory is a pretty unique MMO in its own right, it has a really interesting world design.
>>318733617
if you've never played the original skip it
play DFO instead
How is Shade? Is it just another class or something unique about him?
>>318733661
Mecha
Does Reboot have an MSQ? There wasn't one back when I played originally, and I'm not sure if I want to deal with being forced to do story shit.
>>318733753
They're like immortal or something, idk.
>>318733749
DFO is?
>>318733824
you don't have to do it but it is there
and quests are probably a good thing right now since every map is so crowded
>>318733439
>>318733661
Go for that explorer nostalgia. Why half ass it, just go all the way. That's the spirit of reboot (hopefully).

What's so special about Beast Tamer to warrant their exclusivity? Zero is understandable since it's an OP little piece of shit that's literally a god.
Been playing /m/echanic
only level 21, but how big and anime do my weapons get later on
>>318733348
Haha, yeah. Big berserk fan here so using big ass swords is always a plus for me but I love punching shit to death. Might do my thunderbreaker first. Then just play kaiser alongside.
Either way the reboot does look pretty fun. I'm not even a MS fan.
Some of the other classes look pretty neato to play as well. Looking at wind archer.
This hype is just a sign that seems need a new grind. Is Tree of Savior gonna be any good? When's it come out? I know the beta closes on the 9th, so I'm curious to see if anyone here got to try.
>>318734109
with great anal looseness comes great responsibility. nexon knows this and reserves beast tamer for those especially faggy individuals. Have to have SOME exclusive content for faggots, right?
>>318733981
>>318733560
>There are people who R1 and mastered Engineering, Magic Craft and Wind Making
>>318734315
Fuck, I meant Wine Making. Still a long and autistic skill to master compared to other Life skills
>>318734249
I tried it, it's alright. Definitely hits that grind itch I always have.
Also huge plus they IP banned BRs and pushed them into their own server.
>>318734437
Why do they still call this GLOBAL Maple story if it's North America only?
>>318734437
Fucking hue
I've never played MS. Will I be able to like REBOOT without the nostalgia factor?
>>318734217
You literally summon another giant robot.
>>318734662
You'll probably have more fun than the nostalgia fags.
>>318734662
Just imagine an MMORPG with trade between players removed and a system implemented so you must kill monsters/bosses to acquire all your gear and get stronger.
It is a substantial but very welcome change to the game.
>>318734662
Possibly. Do you like cutesy,silly things and heavy grinding?
>>318734662
Reboot isn't an oldschool server, it's simply a server with less bullshit than the normal servers (which is enough to make most people who quit come back to the game)
So try it out.
Didn't know this was a thing
installing now for OG adventurer fuckery
gonna go either fighter or fire/poison mage
>>318734217
They stray from anime surprisingly, and they take more of an industrial feel instead, eg robot factory style
>>318734507
North america is only part of earth that mattersJapan matters too though
oh man I can't decide between Marksman or Thunder Breaker
hnnnngh
>>318734872
wild hunter is a good mix of both
>>318734826
F/P Archmage is probably the strongest class without good gear, they have insane damage.
Back when i played they only had mage, thief marksman etc. There's so many now wtf which classes are good?
>Only relevant gear drops for your class apparently
>mage pants drop
>I'm a thief
>>318725141
Thought now might be a good time to start the game with this Reboot thing. Didn't play the game when it first came out, pretty sure it's because all of the cool kids were playing Runescape. Anyway, what the hell am I getting myself into here?
>>318735009
>be female xenon
>first drop is male pants
>>318734931
Is it really that good? I used to remember F/P being really shitty in comparison go I/L
Which class will allow me to do this
>>318734383
>>318734315
Almost everything about Mabinogi now is cartering to Autistic, Furfags, and Weeaboos now.
My favorite game is fucking dead.
>>318734931
>>318735075
F/P have been at the top of the DPM (PERCENTS, NOT ATTACKS PER MINUTE) charts for a few months (longer?) now.
Yes, they are as overpowered as everyone says/thinks, they are just not fun to grind for extended periods of time so they are not generally favored.
>>318735031
cute and grinding
>>318735076
Shade
>>318735075
They are good, but their early game is boring as fuck and they obviously fall off when you reach the damage cap.
>>318735101
Where does furfaggotry come from, the ninja shit?
>>318727140
>the world will never obtain the source she is from
It hurts
Literally the only art from the game they ripped it from that's on the web is the 3 screencaps from the flash game.

No one's ever going to reach the damage cap in reboot.
So can someone tell me what exactly Reboot is? How are the pre-Big Bang classes going to stack up to post-Big Bang classes?
should i roll a phantom y/n

Less than 3 months.

I think I found the source for her but unfortunately don't remember.
>>318735416
Don't be so sure, they still have potentials and star force enhancements, plus the Reboot-exclusive passive that's 1% damage per 2 levels (125% extra damage at max

If you want the benefits of Cleric (you can steal and use Holy Symbol to full effectiveness) but without completely boring gameplay, sure.
Especially if you're a 'card weapon' fag
Are the reboot servers going to be added the the player rankings any time soon? I need to save a picture of my Evan.i don't know why but I think it would be fun to post our characters so far

i played back in like...05. when ludi was still new and shiny. Quit a little while after they starting releasing third jobs for classes and the underwater city
lots of good memories
from what i remember, at that time I/L was generally considered better until people realised how good some of the F/P's third job moves where
i dunno how much has changed since then, i heard pig beach is gone and people don't train at coolies or do pqs anymoretfw i played an unfunded assassin, knew i was shit, and it was still a fuckload of fun

Probably not. They have an unfair advantage (I know, it sounds like bullshit all with the trade block and what not) because they get like 30% or whatever bonus experience. That is a huge difference at end-game grinding, literally months of work less.

I love the aesthetic, and the idea of access to key party buffs, but will there be points where my dps is very underwhelming compared to others? this is my concern
>>318735527
I love the look of phantom. He's so handsome and elegant. But I don't like how he can only steal skills from explorers. A lot of the time I play it's very rare to see an exsplorer.

Phantoms traditionally suck compared to other classes in the absence of funding. Guess what Reboot offers. Nobody has any fucking funding. You're pretty even, and if you steal the right skills, you can actually put yourself ahead of the pack.

are you me? I literally quit a few months after Aquarium was added. I was like, Lv 48 Sin, with Icys. I took on Platypus and then quit after that. I had no business taking on a boss that powerful.
So is reboot just a server or is this for the entire game or what?
>>318725141
Idk why you bring this up when I can't even play it
fuck you op I didn't want this hype.

So... Bannedstory up your characters so far?
