    Hey all,

    I just joined this server a couple days ago, and it's been tickling my nostalgia bone after being away from GMS for ...idk 13/14 years?
    My last character during then was a level 43 low dex (25) assassin, so I came back to relive that experience. My questions are as follows:

    Are event specific items still available as loot? One of the most essential gears for low dex sins were the Maple Claw and its higher level variants. Are they available from drops on this server all year round as according to the library on the main page?
    One of my favorite events during then were the anniversary events, where we could hunt cakes for birthday presents and turn them in for rewards (IIRC I had a first anniversary Red Maple Bandana back then, my favorite, still tried to find the blue one though, god help me), are these events available (perpetually? Only during specified periods of time?).
    Are there any inputs/recommendations on mobs to farm for helpful gear/scrolls/general loot? How about quests that yield useful rewards for a low dex sin (sauna robe I guess?)
    Best scrolls to farm for and the mobs? I'm guessing DEX scrolls and ATT scrolls. I'd like to know a few so I can prioritize my training/farming locations

    I found the NL guide already, so I'll play around with that too.

    Thank you all for your help, and I'm excited to stay here a while and relive the nostalgia!

    Regards,
    ST

    Maple weapons bar the pyrope ones are available all year round. The drop list is quite accurate here,

    https://royals-drops.herokuapp.com/#/


    You should find the specific items you need from that site too. What is your level now?

    I just started, only something like level 21 or 22 right now, hopefully will get to second job tonight after I get off work.
    I'm still throwing Subis, maybe I should find a place to get some better stars

    Oh wow! That would be amazing, I remember I had one set of steelies on my old acc after saving up a long time and bought it from the FM for something like 2m back in the days.
    I wouldn't want to take too much though, so I'll only take them if you have zero use for them. I do also enjoy finding them myself for that dopamine rush when they drop :D

    Only Ilbi can sell for meso in Royals

    Steely and lower stars often get thrown away lol (easy to find them due to higher drop rate)

    Ahahaha for real? I didn't think 2x drop would make them that worthless

    The star recharge cost is significant btw. Wouldnt recc too high upgrade of stars. Stick to steely until bossing ish I think would be good. 135+

    steely is most cost efficient star, just continue using steely if you are not funded. steely wa25 recharge cost 75 each and ilbi wa27 recharge cost 200 each, only 2 wa difference but recharge cost almost tripled. Before you reach 4th job for shadow stars skill these recharge cost would force you to spend most of your hard farmed mesos from mobs.

    75 vs 200, I didn't know it's that extreme wow. I was given a few sets of steelies by another kind player. I'll be good for a while then!
    Thanks for the tips!
