Finally leveled my i/l to be able to leech this month. Money is flying in, so I figured it's time to pick a real main [bosser], since I can afford one now. I really wish we had DB's but also very happy we don't #classicmapleforlife. Here's the classes I decided on: Bucc Dark Knight Hero NL - Bucc's: are pretty dope. Damage looks good, healthy HP. DK's: have grown on me. First class I've ever been shown that got me into MapleStory [2007]. Also been wanting to do a Tiger cosmetic character for years, but never done it. (I don't know much about DK's, so I don't know if they're boring as shit.) Hero: cause I love the end game swords. Overall though, pretty boring class, but looks sick. NL: kUz 1M 0P 2007 Not sure which to pick, ideally looking for something that will cover: * - Recruited most often for HT * - Great damage [doesn't cost an arm/leg to get there] * - Most fun * - Has healthy equip availability Thanks!
sorry for godawful formatting i'm lazy and tired Buccaneer: - Recruited for HT? Pretty sure their SI helps corsairs but not NL's but that being said they're helpful enough to get recruited consistently, although obviously NLs/Sairs have a lot higher priority. "Recruited most often" is always going to be SI/Bishops/Attackers/(HB) so this isn't a priority. - Great damage? Buccaneers got a buff recently that helped their damage by a healthy amount, and their scrolls/equips don't cost a fortune, although godly King Cents are drops from Skele (Also B>Godly King Cents I've boomed my last dozen). Their drop rate is pretty low though so don't expect to find many floating around (maybe 1-2 reasonably priced KC in the FM at any given time). - Fun? They rely the most on using different skills/abilities and weaving them into combos. So most skills you've accumulated will be useful later on, relative to other classes. However, they can't spam skills, as there is a delay between repeated skill usage (except 1st job punch, somersault kick with it's somewhat low damage that gets outclassed in 3rd/4th job, and energy blast which is only available at full energy). Fun is subjective, but their 2nd/3rd job are nice. - Healthy Equip availability? Yes, their overalls are common drops at Harps/Ulu1, King Cents from Skele, White Fangz from skele, 30% scrolls go from 5-12m, 60%s and 100% events are relatively cheap. They require little HP washing too so they're the cheapest of the 4. DK: - Recruited for HT? I think HB is important for HT but don't quote me on this. Their damage isn't bad either. - Great damage? Good enough. - Fun? You said it yourself you've always wanted one. But at 4th job you have to learn to manage your HP so bossing can be a bit tedious. Other than that, spam the same skill or two from 70+. But they're nice skills. - Healthy Equip availability? Tops and bots shouldn't be too hard to find, but not nearly as easily as for pirates. They're also gendered. Sky Skis/Purple Surfboard/Dragon Faltizan/Maple Soul Spear aren't super rare, but aren't common either, as most are gach equips. They also require some HP washing, more so than Buccs. Their scrolls (spear) aren't cheap though. Hero: - Recruited for HT? Not difficult but again they will always have less priority than NLs since they bring damage, just a lot less. - Great damage? Good enough. - Fun? Subjective again. One skill spam. *slash slash* that's brandish. But I kind of like it. I like the sound effects. Before that it's slash blast/power strike/panic/coma until 120. - Healthy Equip availability? Stonetooth/Sparta are easier to find than the spears/polearms I'd say. 1/2H sword scrolls are cheaper than spear scrolls. NL: - Recruited for HT? Yes. Priority pick. - Great damage? Yes. Highest damage. - Fun? Basically the same attack for 10-120 then you get the same attack but it throws another star. But if you like bossing then sure it's fun. Again, fun is subjective. - Healthy Equip availability? Godly red cravens are easy to find, but they're not cheap (like 70-200+m for the very very best). Thief equips are also gendered and their tops/bots, although being common drops, at least for me, has been hard to find godly versions of. But they're also the most expensive to fund: requires insane amounts of HP washing for optimal bossing, and since their ATT multiplier is so high, they gain the most from extra Weapon Attack, making each ATT point all the more useful. That's one of the reasons why they're great at bossing: They utilize Weapon Attack the best. You need funds.
Dark Knight can't get boring. I recommend it 10/10. It has the least burden for HP washing among all classes.
hai may i know where is my not super rare perf clean soul spear? btw dont make a female char unless u making a pirate. u're just making urself poor that way
