    I'm a begginer player (been playing for 2 weeks) and i heard so far that wizards are for leeching. I currently have a f/p lvl75 but idk if i should keep going or switch for a new i/l... So which job you guys think is the most new player friendly ?

    They are REALLY alike. Pick the one you like the most. To be honest, the differences are minimal. I got a F/P myself cause I like meteors + that was my first class on global ms.

    F/P have poison (duh) and are very VERY fast to level like 60+ (tho can start as soon as you can more or less reliably hit MDT with poison)

    I would highly recommend Fire Poison
    lvl1-71 is slow compared to I/L
    but F/P is currently royals one of the best leveling class from lvl71~120 second to shadowers.
    Heres a video i found on youtube on regards to mist training.
    Its very old though.


    That aside, 4th job quest. Meteor is a lot easier to obtain which only requires you to talk to NPCs back and forth.
    compared to I/L's Blizzard. Hunting Cold Heart usually takes 3-4hours.
    Took me 3H (I have a 2 I/L Mages and half the day to complete both)
    wanted to kms after

    That aside, if you are interested in making several Mage class,
    I'd recommend creating a HS mule (Priest), which allow you to level that much faster, and if that class fancies you, leveling that HS mule into a Bishop would be pretty interesting as well [:)]

    This is really exciting to see, where should I be able to do this with my f/p lvl75 for leveling?

    Honest opinion,

    F/P is super fun with poison DoT leveling, especially around 60-120, compared with I/L's normal mobbing skills. Since Joon posted a mist video, here is Yuame's video of 3rd job training with Poison Breath.



    Compare to this:




    I would recommend following your own play style though. Wouldn't be MapleStory if you can't find your own story. :)

    That as well lvl60-71 with poison breath is pretty good, looking at I/L's vs F/P's Petri Grind. Oh god LOL

    Biggest difference would be the cost of your wand. A good ele wand 7 will cost more than ele 5.
