Hi all, I’m a long time member and largely lurker in this forum. I personally enjoy the concept of 3rd job only servers. I started playing MapleStory around 2005-2006 when the server Windia was first released in GMS and because of this there is something truly nostalgic to me about a 3rd job only server. I can remember using the “/find ign” function to track down the top players of the day training in Deep Ludibrium maps. It was exciting for me to witness players who achieved level 15X+ prior to 4th job release. This memory is core nostalgia to me. What I have decided to embark on is a personal Game Challenge. Restrictions as follows: Character is restricted to 3rd job only, can never obtain 4th job. Character cannot be leeched to gain levels, either through buying leech, receiving leech from friends, or by leeching yourself. (This is specifically targeting the server meta bishop/mage ultimate-spam leech) Character cannot party with other characters who have obtained 4th job, basically cannot take advantage of any of the benefits of 4th job skills/buffs. (Though some exceptions may be made for party quests and bossing scenarios.) Character cannot multiclient to party oneself with buff mules. I propose no other restrictions to this challenge. The whole of the maple world is open to explore. Train wherever you like. Quest wherever you like. Utilizing trade and the FM are encouraged, I am not proposing this as an Ironman challenge. HP washing is discouraged, but I will not propose a restriction against it as I understand the viability of certain classes may require it. I however will not be HP washing. Party play is encouraged, just limited to 3rd job partymates only. For example, the iconic pairing of DK + Priest or group parties of 6 (5 attackers + Priest). My ultimate goal out of this challenge is to achieve level 200 on a 3rd job only character. I've already began my journey, find me in game. ign: Mahgic, f/p mage If this challenge is something you would be interested in please reach out. I would love to create an active 3rd job only community here in MapleRoyals.
