Are you ready for Maplestory Reboot?

http://maplestory.nexon.net/news/5110/v-168--reboot-update-preview
>What is this?
A new server rebalanced so it's harder like old maplestory with harder monsters and more evenly balanced classes. Monsters have increased EXP and Mesos, and they only drop equipment for your job.
>Who cares, cash whores and girls who get billions from their beta cukold friends are still going to outdamage everyone by 900%
Trading (at least trading enhanced stuff) is disabled. Cash advantages like potential cubes and gachapon are disabled
>Everyone is going to pick mechanic
Every class is rebalanced
>What does this mean?
Everyone has to train. If you don't train you don't get money or equipment. Hopefully this means much greater community interaction. Especially since happyville is returning
>Are any of these changes going to affect my existing character?
No. All of these changes ONLY apply to the new server which will open tomorrow. It is completely separate from other Maplestory balance/patches for now
Who /dualblade/ here
When's Maple Global 2?
Is the patch out yet?
>>318530670
December 2
Are Shadowers/Chief Bandits good?
>Every class is rebalanced
We're talking about Nexon here.
>>318531046
No one knows yet. No actual patch notes
>>318531046
>Balances
> So far all old classes are still out damaged by new ones
>NL can't take more than 2 hits from end-game mobs unless you have like 5 other characters at high level
Yeah, Nexon wont get me back.
>>318531309

I figured someone played on the Korean Servers.
>no trading
this means i can't sell mesos to retards to fund my college education
fuck that, the only reason I've logged into maple in the past few years is to RMT
it's aged horribly compared to other mmos from that era
>tfw played this game for the first time in 2006 and still coming back to it once in a few months
feels bad man
but yeah I'll play, are all of the current classes available for that?
>>318531542
I think it is only for the new content items dumbass.
Will it have the original 4? or will it have those 30 new unnecessary shitty classes that only retards play?
>>318531821
All
Cautious optimism
>there's like 40 other classes now
>I will still probably make another regular-ass bowman despite having four Rangers/Snipers on different servers from years ago
>>318531821
I'd prefer the original 4 too, that would be noice
>you will never do old KPQ/LPQ with a really diverse party
>>318532112
Then fuck it, it's still the same.
>>318532172
>tfw being a cleric in early MS
despite being a squishy fuck it was fun as hell
>tfw dealing damage with healing on undead mobs
>>318532181
>That A4 paper you had tracks for
>Always had a channel to PQ in
>tfw you outlevelled the PQ
Ludi PQ was my realm. It was literally the place I PQed the most while my autistic friend went past 60 before BB.
Are you guys going to play all together? I'll give this a shot out of boredom.
Well shit, if you guys want, you can expect a guild within the first couple hours of release if you want to play together.
>>318532448
>every single class is rebalanced
>its still the same
Nostalgiafags are the fucking worst.
>>318532580
Will that server have guilds at least? If yeah I'm up for it.
Steam group maybe?
>>318532728
I don't trust the whole "rebalanced" talk
>>318532728
New classes are clearly op when it comes to training, it doesnt matter if they rebalance the damage, their skills cover the entire map.
So what will you be playing? Reminder that every class is viable now, including Cygnus Knights which were revamped a while back.
I might go back to the one true pirate
>>318532885
DEXLESS SIN WITH A SAUNA ROBE THROWING STEELYS F A M
>>318532860
That's just how new classes in general work
>release new class
>it's OP as fuck to promote people playing it
>nerf it to shit a month later in preparation for the next new OP class
So if I make a new character will I even stand a chance on this server?
I can't remember my old login from high school.
>>318532964
fuck you thanks for the blast from the past
>>318532860
You know range and radius are values in skills that can be tweaked, or in other words, REBALANCED, right?
You also say this like the original 4 branches don't have all-over screen skills, remember Bishop? Not to mention some of the best trainers don't even have all over screen attacks in the new classes, at least, their all over attacks aren't as powerful as their others.
>>318533105
SCROLLED LVL 10 CLAW
BEANIE ON MY HEAD
>>318533070
Isn't it supposedly gonna be a new server so everyones gonna start from 0?
>>318532885
Xenon with a Thunder Breaker secondary for that sweet shark-flowing combat
>>318533070
It's a brand new server. IF you're in the us you could make a new account. Maple holds your hand a lot and you can find out in game where to grind. 1-100 is pretty damn easy
>>318533070
I'm not sure what you're implying
enemies will be slightly more HP spongey than before but have higher payouts
>>318533070
It is a brand new server that isn't even up yet. Stay tuned and you'll be on the same exact playing field as everyone else.
>>318533225
Xenon is the most interesting to me since it's literally the only true hybrid class in the game (Thief/Pirate), can equip both of their shit and doesn't have a derivative weapon from either of them (uses a whipblade)
>be lvl 21 warrior
>join kpq for the first time
>tfw can't kill any crocs because missing all the time
>>318529875
Why are there penises in the background?
>>318533627
mushroom houses
>>318533627
They are going to reboot your asshole
>>318530290
Even hot Asians are still terrible at acting "sexy"
>>318533438
And don't forget that he can fly with his jetpacks and his main attack has 3 different attack modes.
I only got to 50 though but that was already really fun
>>318532885
Are parties going to be encouraged?
I made a cleric about a week ago and that was fun, so if parties are a thing I could have a use.
>>318534539
There's no trading but the increased monster strength would promote it I think.
Clerics are almost kind of forgettable since Phantom can just steal Holy Symbol and use it himself while also actually contributing damage
So will this be playable in higher resolutions? I can't remember if the base game allowed you to change the resolution or just upscale. Also do changing keybinds work?
>>318534697
If they let me get the Phantom outfit in Reboot, I'll play him. Swag as fuck.
Otherwise, Thunder Breaker all day.
>>318534895
1366x768 max
You can rebind most keys. You've always been able to.
>>318533621
>be archer
>1
>1
>1
>256
>1
>CRITICAL 1
>>318534895
they increased the resolution to 1366x768 not too long ago so at the very least you can use the full screen.
EUROPE WHEN?
So how's Maplestory 2, anyway?
>>318535221
>EMS
always behind
always shit
lower playerbase
EVENTS WITH BIG FUCKING TOMATOES OR GUY FAWKES
>>318534895
also you can mostly keybind what you want but movement is still stuck on the arrow keys. No WASD.
>>318535005
I was thinking how weird it would be if the server has none of those character specific clothes.
I've only been on Scania so I'm used to seeing them all so it'll be weird only having default equips.
>>318535761
I wouldn't mind going awhile without literally everyone wearing SAO, Madoka or Attack on Titan Shit anyways.
>>318529875
This actually sounds really fun.
I'm from South America, my bro just made an account on GMS a couple of days ago and he can play it, what gives? Thought we were blocked off GMS.
>>318535925
Didn't even know they had that. I haven't played in so long.
>>318536446
I haven't played either, but apparently all of that exists.
Im amazed this game still lives.
Although I had some fun with it many years back, Im never touching this again.
so are we making a guild?
EVERY TIME I TRY TO LEAVE SOMETHING KEEPS PULLING ME BACK
who /hero/ here?
I may have stopped playing this game eons ago, but I always liked the art
>>318532885
I remember liking dawn warrior, but that was when they first came out.
>>318539226
Dawn warrior was completely changed with the revamp and has a sun/moon stance theme where a move will have 2 different versions. if I remember, the sun stance will make most attacks powerful single hit moves focusing on AoEs while the moon stance is rapid hits and is more mobile.
i dont know any of the new classes, can someone give me a tl;dr rundown
>>318540073
>Maplestory Characters
>First link is to the Maplestory site
>2nd is to the Maplestory wiki
>Both give you varied TL;DRs on all the characters
>>318540073
I'm watching the videos and it still looks like every class does essentially the same thing
Who /oldschoolgunslinker/ here? Fuck I loved being so weak and attacking fast lmao
I haven't touched this game in like 5 years or so last time I played cygnus was just being released.
Is it worth coming back to now?
>>318540197
Scratch this Kaiser looks pretty awesome
>>318540459
Yes, tomorrow after the patch drops, join the swarm of retards coming back.
>>318540618
Around what time does it come out tomorrow exactly?
can you use your old characters in the reboot?
>>318540731
They haven't said.
>>318540746
no, new characters only
i hate all the new classes
im just gonna make a sin

Thanks I guess
My old EU account is worthless now
>>318540975
dual blades use throwing stars? or did you mean bandit?
>>318541169
I did mean bandit.
>been using an F/p archmage I've held since late 2005 until I finally quit around 2013/2014 ish because I fucking love fire mages
>also love the revamped thunder breaker because of their flow and lightning sharks
Shit, I don't know which to choose, I wanna relive the new old stuff as the wizard I once began with but love the pirate too
>>318538036
well are we?
Who /mihile/ here?
>>318529875
lmao maplestory has always sucked, it's cringey and absolutely embarrassing to play
do you people have any self respect at all?
>>318540975
Zero isn't available on Reboot btw, they are literally too broken to be balanced.
>>318541185
damn. are there other classes besides sins that use throwing stars?
>>318541296
Night Walker, the Cygnus Thief uses throwing stars, though I don't remember how the revamp affected them.
>>318541296
Their respective Cygnus Knight.
>>318540975
you forgot xenon
>>318529875
is it free?
How are Battle Mage, Paladin, Thunder Breaker, Mechanic and Angelic Buster in Reboot?
any way to play there from yurop
fuck... I'm kind of excited. starting fresh with the entire community scrambling and learning the ropes and helping each other out is the best part of MMOs. really sucks when everyone already knows what to do and has their circles established and there are no noobs wandering around exploring.
>>318541728
no patch notes yet my dude
>>318541747
Only if you got an old account
So are all the classes available still or are those stupid limited time characters still around?
Anyone here part of the old NidoKings guild back during Big Bang?
>>318541279
>And for December only, Zero is coming back and will be available for character creation for a limited time!
Why would they say that if they'll remove them as soon as the update goes live?
>>318529875
Do we know if pets/pet items will be sold for NX?
I logged on to my GMS account for this but realized that it takes 2 years to loot each item and I can't use skills while I wait for the item to get to me.
>>318541919
No cash shop, everything is bought with mesos.
>Demon Avenger sounds fun as fuck
>It's the edgelord class
Goddamit man
>>318542015
>Useful items are designed to be available through gameplay, so some items will not be available in the Cash Shop, or will only be sold for mesos instead.
I don't think this implies what you're saying.
>implying it will be playable today
they'll fuck up the time again and it /may/ release in 2 days
>>318540975
I thought Zen was supposed to be the chinese Jett or something.
Like they are essentially the same class just different regions.
>>318542229
ME. SOS.
>>318541794
oh fuck me then
guess I'll just yolo a Battle Mage and hope things turn out okay
okay I'll ask again
IS THERE GONNA BE A V GUILD ON THIS NEW SERVER?
>>318542015
does this include cosmetics?
Because if I can buy clothes and shit with mesos, I am fucking sold
anyone wanna lmpq on mapleroyals
>>318542786
The listed changes for KMS though that may have changed by the time GMS gets it.
Battle Mage’s damage is high with good control. We adjusted some skills to balance them but we want to keep their damage potential where it is.
2nd Job
Drain Aura: maximum HP healed on enemy kill has been decreased from 3% to 1%
4th Job
Spell Boost: magic attack boost has been decreased from 30% to 20%
Battle Rage: cast delay has been removed
Hyper
Battle King Bar: cooldown has been increased from 9 seconds to 13 seconds
>>318542884
Why don't we decide now? What will be the name? Nothing cancerous like Meme Army.
But I do want something with feels. Feel Formation. Yeah.
>>318542629
cool you can buy expressions with me
>available for 5 days
it's shit.
>>318542947
according to this >>318542629
probably. Shows emotes, so I assume cosmetics. Will probably be very expensive meso wise so get grinding
>>318542947
Of course not, they still need to make money
>>318543068
Who the fuck would wanna play games with /v/?
>>318543068
Oh please its harmless fun for a week then everyone quits, why be a shit about it?
>>318540975
>Angelic Buster: a slut with a megaman buster
I know what I'm gonna be
>>318543068
I don't need some stupid meme guild
Just something plain like /v/arriors
>>318543324
/v/arriors sounds dumb. I like Feel Formation
>>318543324
This sounds cool
>>318543302
She's pretty terrible, it feels like you're shooting musical note bubbles with her.
Her transformed (normal) state into Angelic Buster overrides any sort of cosmetics you have.
mfw there's gonna be a bunch of /v/ guilds because no one could decide on a name
>>318543540
well, I like Megaman
is her rebalance gonna make her atleast viable?
>>318543540
oh wait scratch that. She can only wear Cash shop items.
Her hair is totally unchangeable though which is shit
>>318543545
That's always the case. That and the various assholes will want to be the head honcho of the guild
>>318543302
She also has a dragon inside of her
>>318543675
she is getting buffed in Reboot so probably yeah. I wouldn't worry too much about viable or not in Reboot so just pick what looks fun.
>>318543675
her main weakness was she had a pretty sucky amount of hits over time so they increased it by lowering the cast delay on a lot of her skills.
>>318543863
Who would want to be head of a /v/ guild? There's a reason one hasn't already been posted.
Someone make the Feel Formation
>>318544048
That IS a sucky name to be honest bro.
>played MS a little after cygnus knights came out
>thought Buccaneer would be cool
>it's shit
I wonder if they'll be worthwhile this time around. Punching stuff is pretty fun, and I wouldn't want to throw sharks around with Thunder Breaker.
>>318543875
>inside her
So which are the most broken classes after Zero currently?
Fuck it, gonna make a Dark Avenger.
Bring on the edge master jokes.
>>318544048
/v/indicators
/v/alhalla
/v/ajra
/v/arna

>Her hair is totally unchangeable though which is shit
That's a lie anon. Trust me, I have a level 185 one, you can freely change her face, eye color, and hair type/color of either form.
Never played MS before, does this look promising? Is it free?
>>318545130
No, yes in that order.
>>318540975
>no cowboy samurai class
fucking dropped
>>318545361
Jetts are cowboys, and Hayatos are samurai so, uh, there's that
>>318544660
PLEASE no /v/. Just do a capital V or something.
>>318545614
>V
shut up zoey
>putting /v/ in the guild name
Why not just make a normal guild and invite people from the board?
>>318545361
>tfw no Red Steel 2 class
>>318533621
>>318535054
if I redownload this do you still need the stupid points into like dex or whatever if you're a warrior to prevent you from missing every hit? I haven't played since fucking forever man shits probably all changed
>>318544660
/v/irgins
>>318545781
Remember when all our guilds had Bro in the name? Good times.
>>318532489
I want to do this again. I never got my Cleric advancement since mage classes are usually my last pick, but I love supporting a team with heals.
>>318545897
No. There's a single giant button you click to just give you stats now. You only need one type
>>318545897
Every class now has enormous damage compared to old ms and only one stat matters
>>318545478
Jetts are ayylien cowboys
Let's just go with a guild named Basement Dwellers
>>318545909
Ooooooooooh, right in the feels.
>>318546885
What is this? The Binding of Isaac?
>>318529875
I'm fucking sick of this retarded shit, This game is fucking ancient, looks and plays like shit and they just keep defibrillating it's corpse. Maple Story 2 when?
>>318546983
MS2 is nothing that great
I'll just leave this here.
http://strawpoll.me/6151333/
>tfw only have 12kbps internet
>tfw it'll take a week for it to download
>update is in two days
Can someone at least tell me if I could even play the game with such a shit connection so its not so painful.
>>318547445
>12kb/s
Fucker, you can't even use the fucking Internet on that speed.
Do you literally live in hell?
Xenon looks fun, are they fun? I wanna be a cute cyborg girl!
>>318546983
It's like the 2D version of Maplestory
>>318546976
No, that's the truth.
>>318547445
How did you even post about this? Don't you always arrive in already 404'd threads?
>>318547695
FUCK I MEANT TF2
>>318547187
Where's the maybe/probably option, faggot?
>>318547445
Are you on satellite or dial-up?
>>318547580
Yes, its a living hell
>>318547787
I'm using tethering with my phone, and its on 2G internet. Every threat takes like, two minutes to load.
What the fuck is up with all these different classes that have backstories? Are they all different in some way?
Back when I played all they had were just basic classes like Thief or Warrior.
This is so confusing.
>>318548223
The basic guys are still there.
My issue is most of the new classes feel like reskins that do the exact same thing.
>>318535317
only murrifats and gooks are autistic enough to play this game, eu is busy dominating competitive scenes in other games

Is there a chance this game could run on an Intel Atom? I doubt it could, but if my little tablet could play Crysis (albeit at a low playable framerate) I think this game should run.
>>318548875
I like playing my games through steam though.
>>318548875
People outside the US cannot play
>>318548223
Well, surprise.
Maplestory actually has lore and a backstory.
Unfortunately nobody wants to fucking compile it because nobody cares about story in MMOs.
Like god damn this game was a part of my life, I want to atleast know if they fucking kill the black mage before i move on to maplestory 2.
Last time i played every faction and class formed an alliance so they can fight the black mage.
>>318549113
Wow. Used to remember those specs being way lower back then. If I could play maple on 512mb ram and some shitty Phenom processor I think it'll work. I'll start downloading now.
Two questions:
I actually redownloaded the game last night and played on my zero a bit, i thought the patch already came out.
So is reboot ONLY only the reboot server? I play on Khaini, does this mean, if i want to gear up and be on the same level i have to play on the new server? (which i wouldnt mind i was just really enjoying zero and i like the hair i have on my khaini characters)
>>318549304
I am a literal spic and I can.
>>318549326
Stuff happens slowly
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQSSfkHuPeQ
>>318549639
Yes, you need to make a new character on the reboot server and start from scratch.
>>318549639
Yes, retard. There would be no meaning to a reboot if it wasn't on a new server.
>>318549420
>tfw remembering the times when MS was under 1gb
>>318549782
>>318549775
Im just worried its going to be ded in a month like all new servers are.
>>318549887
It's been out for 4-5 months in KMS already and it's doing fine.
>>318549887
It's likely gonna be dead in month-two anyway
I might give this a go, are skills and stats still "pick what you want and pray it doesn't suck because you gotta pay earth dollars for respecs" or is it not quite that bad anymore?
FUCK.
>>>/vg/124000405
Update not tomorrow.
Update postponed until further notice.
>New server
>Still has all of the classes and shit
>Everyobe just picks Zero and start off at level 100 to instantly get to high level content, completely fucking everything up
Wow, Nexon sure did think this through.
>>318529875
>train
grind*
>>318550019
Maybe it's me but I think that if I get on a brief 2-month freebie MMO it scratches the itch enough that I don't, like, subscribe to anything.
>>318550191
Stats are basicly "press this big fucking button everytime you level instead of the small greyed out ones you idiot" and skills aren't a problem since most of the time you can easily see which ones are worth leveling first and which ones aren't.
>>318550323
Yeah, they did. Zero is banned on Reboot servers.
>>318550323
>i'm literally retarded
Besides, Zero is practically useless in Reboot.
>>318550245
fucking told you >>318542401
>>318550323
And what exactly does that hurt? It's not like they can corner a market since there's no trading, etc.
>>318550446
>Besides, Zero is practically useless in Reboot.
you mean literally uselesscause, y'know you cant use them
>>318550607
You can in Korea.
And he's still practically useless. Every patch he has just been nerfed more and more, the only reason people level him is for the crossclass.
>>318530290
Best mage reporting in.
>There are people in the thread that can't beat up their enemies with staves
>Laughing_junior_reapers.jpg
>>318550245
Fucking Nexon. Is there anything they won't fuck up?
>tfw still playing old school mabi
maybe someday ;_;
>>318531503
>NL can't take more than 2 hits from end-game mobs unless you have like 5 other characters at high level
And? Before Big Bang you couldn't take more than one hit from end game enemies as a Night Lord or Archer unless you spent a silly amount of money to HP wash.
I won't fall for your fucking korean mmo trap again.
never
Here to say Battle Mage is the best character

So like, i guess nobody is gonna make some kinda compilation or something of everything that happened up until this?
I'd love it if somebody could like give a quick summary of everyones story, and anything notable that happened after. I know this is everyones first MMO surely im not the only one whos kinda invested.
>>318552250
Not really a quick summary but here you go:

My man.
>back during Big Bang
>in that haunted house with voodoos and hoodoos
>running shit
>faggot archers and beast riders trying to push me out
>I'm zipping all over thanks to teleports and shredding enemies
>They ask me to cc despite me being there first
>"lol no."
>They say some filtered start swear and leave
Get dunked on, bowfaggots.
Story:
>Black mage woke up after big bang
>literally nothing for YEARS
>black wings (black mage supporters) started making androids like 3 years ago
>this year they ended up completing black heaven and made an army of androids to attack maple world
>the resistance army who was going to stop the black wings anyway decided now would probably be a good time
>They all load in to phantom (one of the heroes who sealed the black mage away, along with evan and aran back in the day)'s ship, the crystal garden
>they absolutely crush the enemy ship, only it was just a tiny little itty bitty babby ship
>big ship takes a big ship shit all over the crystal garden
>player character launches themselves on to the enemy ship and destroys it from within
The new major story content hitting KMS tomorrow, is all about the heroes, and a direct continuation from black heaven, starring Damien, the brother of the "Demon" class character(s), and the heroes of maplestory. Mercedes, Aran, Phantom, Luminous, and Evan. And then Eunwol/shade but he's a gay.
Spiegelmann is the black mage.
so we doin a steam group or wha
>>318553709
Make one.
>>318553685
that whole black heaven storyline is one of the most tedious and boring shit i've ever witnessed in mmos honestly
Literally only reason to play is because you can only ever get items relevant to your class. I don't need twenty fucking swords when i'm a ranger.
>>318553685
>Spiegelmann is the black mage.
SHIEEEEEEEET
>>318553773
Fine
http://steamcommunity.com/groups/maplerebootwithv
>>318553709
fuck that are we doin a guild?
>>318554101
nigga pls
>>318554105
Obviously the group would be to organize a guild
>>318554105
Since they're delaying the update we won't make the guild today, and not tomorrow for sure so we need better organization
and we're still undecided on the name of it
>>318553685
>Speigelmann is the Black Mage
NIGGA DAMN
hold on, so all those pictures I found in the Battle Safari Park thing weren't jokes?
>>318553806
It's not that bad but you have to have been playing and know the storylines of all the classes involved otherwise a ton of shit is missed. Gelimer's been around for years, but never did anything outside of Xenon's story until black heaven. Lotus and Orchid never even appeared outside of random event shit and minor references in class storylines, and I guess evo lab but you don't really know it's lotus until the revamped evo lab which nobody bothers doing because it's ass.
The story is fine, it's a little bit cliche but maple is a genre-defining and thus now cliche so it's not that surprising. I dug it. classic tale of a brother and sister on opposite sides of a battle. Only they're both spirits that control the universe, tears of a god.
And the voice acting is fucking top tier in korean. A shame nexon NA employees do all the english voices for GMS. lel.
>>318554290
you couldn't make the guild today anyway. Guilds are exclusive to each world.
>>318554365
I meant doing the black haven storyline was boring and tedious because mobs were fucking damage sponges and it took a long time to finish, way too long
Is this only for Global or for the others as well?
>harder like old maplestory
wot
>>318554479
KMS and global only for now I believe.
>>318554450
The mobs scaled to your level, so you had shit equips. git gud. If you can't handle that, wait 6 months, GMS will be getting a revamped black heaven with more efficiently balanced drop rates on items and less necessary monster kills to proceed in parts 1 and 2.
>>318554479
KMS has it, GMS is getting it in the next week or so, JMS is getting it on the 9th. EMS and SEA can suck a dick, they're even more dead than GMS is which is really saying something considering GMS is 95% bots.
>>318531046
>>318531309
Check orange mushroom's site. The reboot revamp essentially nerfs several op classes and buffs a few. Shadowers get buffed throughout the entire ordeal, as with Buccaneers.
>>318553685
>Spiegelmann is the black mage.
I-is that joke?
Thats fucking insane if thats true.
>>318541619
Yes
so how do i join it, just download normal global MS and wait till reboot launch? im down to guild as well, havent played since the engineer got introduced.
>>318554361
Do you happen to have those pictures? I can barely remember them
>>318530290
Who's this semen demon?i hope she does some crazy porn.
>>318554816
If you do the storyline you get to know that the White Mage turns into Black Mage after some shenanigans
>>318554626
I haven't tried in awhile, but does GMS still lock out non Americans?
SEA is indeed pretty dead and I want to play with a more active community.
>>318554816
It's not confirmed officially, but every time new content pops up, he's there. Korean Folk Town gets a renovation along with reboot (patch 2 or 3), and he opens up a new "ghost park". Monster park also gets revamped in the first patch of the new blockbuster Heroes of Maple.
Spiegelmann is everywhere.
>>318554941
Yes, reboot is a regular world in the world select list. Just pick it and you should be good to go.
>>318554986
pic related. I don't have the others though.
>>318555054
That's the grand athaneum storyline. It was a precursor to the major blockbuster content black heaven and the new one heroes of maple. Also a good story and gives some insight into the white/black mage.
>>318555134
yup, use a VPN though and you can get in fine. wtfast or mudfish.
>>318543324
I think it should be something that doesn't sound too "obvious" but also doesn't sound too much like an in-joke.
I think I remember a Spiral Knights guild having a decent name that I didn't find completely cringeworthy.
>>318555134
It does.
Thank god I still have my old account from before the IP block happened.
>tfw no good porn of MS
The sprite porn is funny, but not really noteworthy. The game has potential for great art but the chibi proportions kills part of it off.
Who /Bucc/ here? Useless class number 1.
>>318555054
Well shit, if i go on this reboot server, will i still have access to do all the story shit? Or did they do the mmo thing and make it so it was a "you had to be there" kinda thing?
This actually makes me want to start playing again.
>>318555375
>no good porn
I beg to differ
https://chan.sankakucomplex.com/?tags=maplestory&commit=Search
>>318555173
So if he's the BM, what's his sister?
>>318555375
More like:
>tfw no good fan art of MS
I swear it's non-existant.
>>318555415
You can do it all. Maple is far from a traditional MMO. They want you to play the game all the time, instead of just an hour a week so they can suck out $15 a month from your pocket.
they aim to suck out much much more every month.
>3 members
So no one gives a shit then.
Alright.
>>318555494
It exists, but most of it's not going to be of NPCs. I remember basil had a few prominent artists a few years back. Dunno about now.
>>318555375
I remember seeing some sprite porn that was actually pretty decent, but that was years ago.
Some was behind some guy who you had to have a password to get behind, and another was some prototype thing that let you edit the girl.
>>318555476
The unrevealed transcendent from grandis (pantheon/heliseum). They're working together to train the maple warriors so when the time comes he can zombify everybody.
>>318555590
I'll join the guild but not the steam group
>>318555681
How are we gonna make the guild without knowing what name and who wants to join in the first place as you may or may not be on /v/ or /vg/ when it comes out
huh
might be cool
WHOOO to pick for reboot server.
Hero, Demon slayer, or Hayato?
>>318555681
Good luck figuring out which one it is than homeboy
>>318555656
This started to get really stupid when they started going interplanetary
So, how's Kanna?
For what I heard it has meh boss damage but bitches love her because she can fuck with the spawn rates.
I like the Okami skill graphics and youkai theme, too.
>>318555763
>guild leader posts IGN in thread
>people applying whisper him
>"Hey fag I'm from /v/ hit me up with an invite"
literally the same way guild applications are handled in every other MMORPG that /v/-/vg/ plays.
>>318529875
>A new server rebalanced so it's harder like old maplestory with harder monsters and more evenly balanced classes. Monsters have increased EXP and Mesos, and they only drop equipment for your job.
how great would this be.
That pain of grinding for my level 110 helmet and all I get is spammed with shitty level 100 mage gear.
>>318555375
>not liking the chibi proportions
For me thats what makes MS porn MS porn, otherwise its just another piece of animu art to me.
>joining a /v/ guild in 2015
Yeah because I totally want to deal with a bunch of greentext without green text, memes, and shitposting from a bunch of fucking teenagers.
>>318550245
Looks like typical corporate speak to me for "It's not officially on the website therefore I can't officially tell you it's tomorrow"
It's probably still coming tomorrow.
>>318556149
Alliance chat is green
:^)
>>318555920
How so?
The grandis storyline is really simple.
>Kaiser is a destines warrior, chosen by the ancestor spirits (think avatar)
>Angelic buster is just an idol who uses a grandis weapon (that previous kaiser's have used)
>third friend in their group defected to the bad guys
>main bad guy is working with the black mage of maple world to take over his own world, and also help take over maple world
It doesn't really go deeper than that. The transcendents are a relatively new thing in maple. Basically every world has three. time life and light. For maple the current three are: Black mage, Zero, and Cygnus. for light, time, and life respectively.
They're basically gods. Who control their own "element". Only the black mage was originally the white mage. And he gave up his power over light to attain a more tangible power. And now he's turned transcendence of light into a void. He's taken the power of every transcendent of light after he renounced his power. Basically set up a trap for the universe. Anyone who takes the mantle of transcendent of light gets eaten by the black mage.
>>318556013
Average fun. Maybe below average.
http://maplestory.nexon.net/news/5219/scheduled-game-update--december-2-2015
confirmed tomorrow.
By which I mean it'll be done by the time the 3rd rolls around.
>>318556149
Honestly, I might just do it how I used to do it: Talking and partying with mostly random people until we became "buddies" then eventually getting into a guild. The idea of playing with /v/ is fun, but it always ends up sour.
>>318555831
Try all 3, you're not restricted, plus you earn more character slots through gameplay. PLUS you have link skills and character cards.
Mercedes' is probably the best link skill because it can be up to a +20% exp boost. Xenon also gives a +10% boost to all stats.
Character cards to consider:
Phantom: Increased Meso drops
Aran/Evan: Restore HP/MP on hit
Mechanic: Buff duration up
>>318556549
>talking and partying with people
>in current ms
kek
>>318556615
This is the lie I'm telling myself that Reboot will fix.
We all have one.
So trade is gone but couldn't a charitable person still drop good items?
God damn it, you fuckers are actually making me want to try this stupid korean mmo grindfest again.
Out of the 87 unique posters how many are actually playing? I want actual buddies not weirdos that grind all day for no good reason.
>>318556707
inb4 all items you pick are untradeable
Do you guys play MS on Steam?
>>318556707
I'm not. Not right now anyway, have finals coming up very soon
How much stronger are the mobs? Hopefully they will be powerful enough to make grinding not mindless aoe spam but doubt it.
>>318556707
items you drop including mesos will probably just be destroyed like untradeable items that are dropped
>>318556535filename
>>318556549
>talking to people in Maple Story
Hope you know Portuguese or Tagalog and will look past all the @s
/v/ guild isn't much better but at least they speak English and are human.
>>318556707
I plan on playing. Even been playing GMS the past few days to get back into, though mostly just new characters since I've long been out of the loop.

They say there is no trading...but what happens when you drop items? Item dropping would have to change.
>>318557193
pretty sure >>318556769
which I still think it's rather stupid
>>318531507
>demon avenger can dump points into hp now well past the hp cap and still increase him damage
neat.
May still go solo bishop though.
Gonna roll a Bishop so everyone will have to suck my dick.
Or an I/L so I won't be completely reliant on other people to level.
>>318557193
they don't show up for anyone else. that's it. there is no destruction they just don't show up on other people's screens. everyone's forever instance in relation to drops.
>>318557483
I'll go Phantom, find you and steal your holy symbol so I can give the +50% exp bonus while actually doing damage
and people will suck my dick instead
>>318556574
I have played all three im just trying to remember which is the most FUN. Im really enjoying Zero, so im kind of looking for something like it, but my old mains were hero and DrK
>>318557483
>>318557660
It's true, people love the thief archetype.
Sorry mage but you just got cooked.
>>318557660
>implying phantom does damage without funding
>>318557807

>>318557660
Phantoms don't get the full effect when stealing stuff.
>>318557660
>phantom
>meaning black
>can steal skills
fucking niggers
>>318558147
did they change it? I'm pretty sure when it's fully maxed you steal the skill at the same effectiveness
what's the best independent class that don't need no man
>>318554101
Where's everyone at? Only 5 people so far
>>318558682
Aran is now confirmed, 100% canonically a woman. So Aran.
>>318558745
Stop pushing your steam group.
>>318558797
>Aran
>Woman
Yeah no.
>>318558486
>>318558147
Pretty sure HS is the same on phantom, I just logged on my 150~ phantom and all it says is "stolen skills have reduced attack power". They can only reach a max of level 20 skills however so if you steal a skill that's level 30 you can only get the level 20 version.
>>318558873
Group creator here, that one post wasn't me actually
we could use more people though
what class should i play
>>318558929
And holy symbol goes up to 20 so
Will parties be needed or can everyone solo everything
>>318558997
Female Cleric
>>318559060
>not male healer fuckboi
>>318558907
No, it's totally canon, all of the major cuscene apeparances are by fem Aran.
Aran: Female
Evan: Male
Mercedes: Female
Phantom: Male
Luminous: Male
Eunwol: ?????
>>318559146
Doesn't mean shit, the class is designed for men by men, deal with it.
>>318559021
Parties will be needed to fight the bosses that get you the gear that lets you solo shit. And since there's no trading, even if there are hackers it really won't matter unless they start bringing in 5 people on CRA runs day 1.
>>318559146
eunwol is male. all official art and in-game appearances are male. His sprite in-game for heroes of maple is also male.
>>318559240

I would say something about it sucking to have less than Aryan boss-DPS and the ability to one shot literally any mob, but I can't say I know the feeling
:^^^^^^^^^)
I haven't played this game in so fucking long.
I almost don't remember a damn thing.
Are there any guides I could read to get myself back on track? Is it FTP still?
More importantly, what class should I pick?
>>318559434
I'm not mad. I'm just curious as to why you're so desperate to make people think Aran is male when she's obviously female?
>>318559240
There's nothing stopping you from playing a character who has a canon story as the 'wrong gender', but the fact remains that there's a canon gender.
Demon Slayer/Avenger is canonically male, Kaiser is always male, Angelic Buster is always female, and I think Xenon is male.
What's the best way to play Global if you're not in NA?
All the things I've looked up so far are either not working anymore or just really shady.
>>318559595
>are there any guides I could read to get myself back on track?
Used to check basilmarket but the site seems dead now
>is it FTP still
Yes, infact Reboot even more so as you can't buy things to make you stronger via NX anymore, either you pay with the mesos you grinded or you get nothing.
>what class
What looks the most fun to you.
>>318559651
>obviously

What have I gotten myself into?
So will a regular polearm warrior be viable? Im like so stoked on polearm type characters now.

Patch notes when? I know they're already up on orange mushroom, but GMS can differ a bit from KMS in some parts of the update
>>318560183
Then what's the second best way?
>>318560182
You mean Spearman/DK? Yeah the distinction was removed ages ago if I'm not mistaken. Back when 2 dif 3rd job attacks actually procced 2 dif damage types.
There's also Aran.

think im gonna find characters such as darkherox

I WOULD cringe at my old character names, but then I remember that whenever a new job would come out, I would make one immediately with a cousin and we'd race to level 70 over a weekend, or a day if we got free 2xRemember that 3x exp event? The one that compounded with a 2x exp buff and a 2x exp card to make 9x?

Unless the exp required to level up is set back to its regular rate pre- big bang this won't stay fun for long.
How are Battlemages in the reboot? I always liked the concept
>>318561053
Don't really know but just make sure that you look on how to pirate the premium version, the free version is garbage so far as I know.
>>318561659
They got very slightly nerfed.
>>318561781

I haven't played for like 5 years
>>318549754
You need to have made an account before 2009 or so. Otherwise you're IP blocked.
>that feel when I never actually played Maple Story
I guess reboot is as best time as any, though picking a class is going to be tough.
Don't forget!

Is Kanna available in the West yet?
What's the most fun class?
I played this back in the day when there were 4 base class with two branches, but now I look at the page and there's fucking 32 of them.
Hayato looked pretty neat but being the weeaboo samurai class I bet he's overwhelmingly popular
>>318549304
Wrong. People from locations that have their own localized version cannot play GMS unless they have an account made before the block.
>>318561543
Reboot exp rates are even higher than the current servers.
But besides, the exp needed for 220-250 is pretty much the same as pre-big bang anyway
>>318561952
The fact that they got nerfed means they are good.
>>318543324

>>318562534

The characters also just look nicer
Some of them even have voice acting

Just choose the one that looks the nicest to you
You'll be enjoying doing that more than playing a class just cause it's "good"
>>318530290
is this where we're posting korean grills
is Aran fun?
Is Battlemage ranged or melee?
what's your guys favorite ranged class, because I'm thinking of making at least one melee and one ranged character
>>318562857
if I remember they removed the "you need to pay real money to make these classes good" aspect from Dual Blades and Evan.
Zero is pretty bad though
>OP as fuck
>terrible story
>start at level 100
>you only gain exp in the 'mirror world' until you finish their story at around 180
>>318562938
Every time.
>>318563051
Battlemage is melee
>>318562973
All the skills and stats and shit were simplified to shit long ago. Stats-wise, leave everything at 4 and pump everything into your primary stat, accuracy/equip requirements aren't things any more, they're determined by level/primary stat respectively. Skills-wise, you'll get ALMOST enough SP to max every skill, and it should be common sense to pick out which one skill you don't want for each job advancement.
>>318562857
in terms of community, dark knights are definitely the worst
in terms of the class in general, probably zero because of how terrible the story and voice acting is
Let's settle this once and for all
Which is better, ranged or melee?
>>318563056
I just play Zero cause I can switch from cute guy to cute girl and vice versa whenever I want
>>318562243
I thought it was supposed to be balanced?

>tfw making a WH!
>>318563051
Aran is sweet, uses fighting game style inputs meaning he's the only character you can reasonably play without every fucking key on your board being bound to a different skill. Plus polearms have always been the coolest weapon in MS and you get a class centred around them, that's just gravy.
do they bring the old maps back?

YOU GET A FLASH JUMP
AND YOU GET A FLASH JUMP
EVERYBODY GETS A FLASH JUMP
Did they add any class yet with stands
>>318563498
It was cool when they introduced the drop down jump feature even though it made teleport less unique, but that shit crosses the fucking line for fucks sake.
Is the assassin's shadow jump unique at least? You know, the original fucking one?

The skill changes should probably apply to every server if Nexon was smart. Though they don't bring the shit classes up nearly as much as they'd like to think
I wanna try the reboot server but I have almost no freetime lately. Probably better off sticking to private servers if I ever do get the itch

i just logged on for the reboots, forgot how nice mercedes and her skills looked and i only made her for the exp boost i think.
not sure what ill make with /v/ maybe something old school even though i like the flashy shit as well
Are brawlers still good?
What other classes allow me to punch shit
>>318563732
I think they're overall just faster but nah most classes have a pretty identical flash jump and those that don't have teleports
>>318564687
Shade uses knuckles and can summon spirits to punch shit
>>318565029
Is the girl Shade cute? I want to play as a cute punching girl
>>318565029
Is shade fast?
I want to play as a fast punching man.

Most maplestory players play on laptops/shit PCs so 768p is the maximum resolution.
>>318565927
What's the deadest region server in Maple
>>318563348
some one please answer this
Just give us Maplestory 2.
>>318529875
Nothing will make me play a game with an art style like that. Jesus why.
>>318566079
All of them
>>318566271
Is Maple 2 even good?
>>318565484
>>318565641
Not sure if Shade really works out for punching actually, seems like most of his moves are actually more about slashing (although he does have some moves that are indeed punches).
>>318566271
I doubt this will happen but I hope they seperate the servers by language instead of country
I hate not being able to play gms with my friend who's not in NA
>>318566271
>all those ahegao faces in the early days
>>318566523
This is a thing on combat arms, but it was because the NA version broke with the retard stuff they did, i hope the same doesn't happen to maplestory with reboot.
>>318566476
How about thunder breaker vs a pirate brawler?
Kinda weird that pirates use knucklers but whatever.
>>318566271
Do you still play? We played together a while back when it first came out.
>>318566474
I think it is, but there's always a naysayer right behind me when I say so. Some things seem a little basic, but doesn't really fuck anything up, and there's a lot if different things to do. Movement and combat is fun, PvP would be great if it wasn't PAY TO WIN WITH POTIONS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE MATCH, but I bet they'll change that in the global version.
The English community is very small on the KR servers and everything is super-laggy. Without those problems, it'll be a lot easier to tell how it is.
>>318566684
I believe Thunder Breaker has the most to do with punches.
>>318567084
I heard you get banned if you speak english.
>>318567084
How do you guys play on the Korean servers?
>>318566684
>>318567135
>pirates that use knuckles
>supposed to be really in your face to enemies
>they just turned them into dragon ball Z energy beam shit
>>318566831
Nah, I might give it another shot though. I factory reset my computer and didn't bother reinstalling. Is the English community a bit bigger now? How are things?I think the eyepatch looks dumb too, but it was the only pic I had of the world's cutest swimsuit.
>>318566684
Thunder Breakers as of revamp has them use skill chains. Lots of them.
>>318566603
Also the nude outfits.

>>318567357
>There's a Super Saiyan class
Guess I know what I'm trying in this new server then!
>>318567237
There might be truth to that. The Japs have nothing on the xenophobia these Koreans have, and I play lots of PSO2. At least, from what I hear.
>>318567569
Sorta yeah
So I never really played MS (I mean I played, but it was the clueless 12 year old no idea what the fuck is happening kind of play), and the modern MS bullshit kept me from coming back, should I get into this reboot thing and finally make the bandit I should have been?
Should I roll a Marksman or an Aran (that I'll be playing with a fightstick)
Evan is cute! CUTE!
>>318567645
Koreans hate americans with a passion for some reason.
They're the ones who threw a fit when mainline monster hunter got TWO frontier monsters, and because of that we never got any more frontier monsters ever again.
Or frontier in general

I'm afraid to start playing again and from what I've read in the thread there's a lot to catch up on. I don't know where I'd even begin. I remember Cygnus Knights being fun, but underwhelming.
>>318568135
Cygnus Knights got reworked massively, they can also reach level 250 like everyone else now.
>go into Zakum cause the boss things says it should be easy

Who said the community was dead?
>>318568319
Were you a grill?
>>318568268
>increase overall level cap to 250
>basically do nothing with those extra 50 levels
What was the point?
>>318568268
I'll try to read up on patch notes. My favorites were the Thunder Breaker and Dawn Warrior. I also heard from a friend Aran and Evan were cool, but I have a weird hatred for characters with pre established backstories/names.
>>318568319
Is Zakum STILL the final boss of the game?
>>318568405y-yeahb-but that's besides the point.
>>318568135
they got reworked to stand out on their own (generally) instead of being 'easy mode' adventurers with an early cap
Dawn Warriors play massively differently, though I can't say about the rest. I'm still not sure if Night Walkers are any different from Sins
>>318568425
To please the people that want slow as fuck leveling.
So you guys are telling my I could play Mercedes without being complete shit at nearly everything?
>>318568508
Hell no. You can easily solo zakum now.

>>318568425
5th Job is on the way at some point.
>>318567390
Aww thats too bad. I haven't really tried to get in contact with any other English speakers so I don't really know how thats going. From what I've heard from our "translator" its gotten smaller and a lot of people kinda stopped paying attention to it.He pretty much hates everything now so I don't really care what he has to say.
They announced a new class called Rune Blader that hasn't had anything shown yet. Aside from that I haven't really touched it too much myself lately aside from logging in to run around. Will you be playing Reboot?
>>318568785
Just let me believe.
>>318568908
Do you want to punch, slash, shoot, or shoot magic bullets?
Or use an animal like a dragon and so on?
>>318568454
As far as I can tell, classes that aren't playing a specific person's story:
Adventurers: All
Cygnus: All (Minus Mikhail)
Resistance: Battle Mage, Mechanic, Wild Hunter
Sengoku: Maybe?
Heroes are obviously you playing as that legendary hero. Demon Slayer/Avenger was a general for the black mage. Xenon is some android something something. Kaiser and Angelic Buster are specific people. Zero is a specific person. Don't know if Beast Tamer is a pre-established person.
>>318568950
what the fuck
what would they even name them
paladin -> ?
night lord -> ?
archmage -> ?
bishope -> pope?
>>318568751
who czak here
>>318569175
Sengoku is pretty story at least for Kanna
Never played Hayato before
>>318569206
Paladin > Templar
Night Lord >Dark Lord
Archmage > High Mage/Elder Mage/Warlock/Greybeard/There's literally a million fancy words for mages in fiction
Bishop > Archbishop
>>318569206
>paladin -> ?
Holy warrior
We crusades and jihad now.
>night lord -> ?
Night king?
>archmage -> ?
Mage lord
>bishope -> pope?
archangel. Just skip the whole pope thing.
Realistically they could just add a (2) after the fourth job name.
There's way too much of an overlap between classes, practically EVERYTHING has flash jump, aoe skills that damage everything, max movespeed, critical, etc.
>>318569206
Templar, Shadow King, Sage, Prophet? I forget if any of those are already class names, for some reason I feel like sage is.
>>318569206
The real question is what comes after Hero
>>318569907
I don't really have a problem with flash jump honestly
It's better than wasting time walking all the way to the other side
>>318569907
Yeah, all being max movespeed sorta removes the need for haste and the like. As does flash jump
>>318569925
Legend is a guess
>>318569907
Remember when Warriors had the only 1st job AoE attack?
Good times.
>>318570021
Sure, but give every class a unique way to move. Teleport, Flash Jump, Max movespeed, hookshots, there's plenty of options, why does everything need to have practically all of them?
>maplestory thread reaching 500 posts
I swear to god you fuckers better be active
>>318570131
>I can be a fucking legend
>>318569907
I don't mind every class having something for mobility but I agree with everything else. Too much overlap with passive skills especially.
>>318569682
>>318569676
We doing this now?
>Hero -> Legend
>Dark Knight -> Dragoon
>Bow Master -> Deadeye
>Marksman -> Crossboverlord
>Shadower -> Disco Bandit
>Buccaneer -> Pillager
>Corsair -> Blackbeard
>>318570143
The line between classes was really distinct back then.
>>318570220
In-game right now.
>>318569206
Hero -> Legend
Paladin -> Saviour
Dark Knight -> Fallen
F/P Archmage -> The Crimson
I/L Archmage -> The Azure
Bishop -> Saint
Bowmaster -> Grand Bowmaster
Marksman -> Elite Marksman
Night Lord -> Night Terror
Shadower -> Pitch Black
Buccaneer -> Captain
Corsair -> Desperado
I dunno. Also fuck Archmages because they have the least inspired class names ever

>>318570154
That used to be the way it worked but some methods are just better and that class was abused to shit (i.e. back in the early days when everyone rolled assassin )
>>318570241
>Disco Bandit
You triple nigger, I almost forgot that game existed.
>>318570320
Not bad.
I'd be the fookin legend of gin alley
>>318570220
>I swear to god you fuckers better be active
I want to be, but I have finals coming up and have half-ass software manual to write as a final project so I don't know if I can be.
>>318570220

>>318570220
I will be, as soon my PC parts arrive this 20~22th.
>>318570320
Rolling a Savior named Jesus
>>318570397
>hermit
>dragon knight
>priest
Everyone else was irrelevant.
Unless you were a godly funded Chief Bandit, in which case bitches were lining up to see huge numbers x6 and stupid high assassinates.
Are fuccboi Clerics still good, even with all the solo dps classes?
>>318570236
The mobility option should be exclusive for every class, if they want EVERYTHING to have max movespeed then just fucking set the default speed to be 150% goddamn.
The thing is you can totally have mobility while keeping it unique. Mages have Teleport, Thieves have Flash Jump, Archers would have a hookshot, and Warriors would just have move speed passives/buffs.
But then you have classes that mix two or more of these and it just kinda ruins it.
>>318570837
Yeah, you're desirable in parties
>but phantoms
I've seen maybe 10 phantoms in my grind to 190. Plus bishops are pretty decent attackers these days, better than Cannoneers at least.
>>318570869
I liked that Mercedes get updraft for whipping up ropes and Kaisers get their grapple to reach platforms above but they still get flash jumps.
Pirates Dash was ass though
>>318569206
Pope would be the funniest fucking name, I'd go priest just for that
>>318571120
>Plus bishops are pretty decent attackers these days, better than Cannoneers at least.
