    Hi everyone, years ago i have been seeing this issue where new players who just started maple royals and trying to do quests in perion.
    there is a level 15 quest in perion (see picture below, i circled the npc):
    the quest will teleport you to Ariant when you speak with him.

    the problem is that the new players have 0 knowledge of the game and don`t know how to leave ariant.

    With the increase amount of players joining maple royals right now, i see this this as a concern.
    I encountered many new players asking for help in FM (how to leave ariant town)

    NPC Karcasa on the Tents of Entertainer map (the one after the sand bunnies) can teleport you back as long as you have 10k mesos

    I remember that i faced same situation 16 years ago.It is my first time to play a maple game on CMS.Story is that i came out of island and chose the wrong taxi which took me to the sleepywood.BTW the taxi charged me a lot of mesos and made me broken.Additionally,there wasnt a FM entrance or lounge out there.So i basically couldnt find anybody who may get me out from the hell.I had to try to go back to the place where i came from by myself.In the end,it failed and i stayed at sleepywood for weeks until my classmate got me out,LMAO.But when i try to picture the adventure i encountered,i wont feel painful about this journey.On the contrary,i will miss the adventure that i met in the old days.I will miss the mobs which K.O me by only 1hit which i wont know before hand.Most importantly,i will miss the boys and girls who solved all these difficult problems with me during this adventure.And i guess thats why every class in the old days called adventurer.Hopefully,players in mapleroyals wont wait weeks like me in the old days.There is FM entrance or lounge everywhere,we can ask for help easily.If you are lucky,you can find some friends who are willing to face all the difficult problems with you shoulder by shoulder.It is these friends rather than mesos-gear-boss game which will make you feel warm even many years later.
    So i dont think it is an issue to beginners.Im a newbie here,i played like 8 days in royals so far.In these days,i meet so many friendly players who give me potions for free and trash gear to use,carry me in party quest even if i always hit miss on mobs,teach me how to build a class and dont get lowballed by others.Id like to say thank you again here to all these ppl who helped me in these days.As a newbie,id like to say that even if asking for help takes time,it wont always be bad memory imo. Just my 2 cents.

    Manji is a cold-hearted troll but he is bae

    Or worse, there's this quest in Nautilus that sends you to Omega Sector (I can't remember which), it was earlier this year when I came back to MS after quite possibly 6 years of hiatus, I got stuck at Omega Sector at level 20+ something, it was a challenge because I think I have to complete some quests to get back to Nautilus. I was thinking of starting over, I was so angry at myself for not reading properly but that's the reality, sometimes we just skim over the texts and just want to proceed with actual task.
