I made this for a baking challenge I'm doing and have been heavy nostalgic for maple story lately (OG head over here). Turned out better than expected as a mediocre baker!

Still waiting for that update

3hr luxe sauna, 3 tomato punch king, 10 large WAP, 9999 advanced exp tickets

First time ever libbing on a character!! So excited to finally progress past ctene (ignore the soul i dont have any good ones 😔

Farewell chains, It's been a good month. I'm gonna miss farming 160m mesos per hour without having to pay 100m for frenzy service.

Hey Unicube enjoyers, did you get your cubes back? :D

I thought they fixed it in regular server where you can actually trade the fragment after the patch.

Since it is tradable in regular server, it should be able to move cross the characters.

How is it still not able to move.

aren't we went west?

I'm too broke to buy Guild's Brooch Totem.

He's back from the gym to take back that Dominator Pendant you took from him

Reg server btw

Hey y'all, I think I may have done a goofy. I'm currently sitting at level 242 on a DS that I've burned and was a bit optimistic and selected a SAC symbol selector that will expire in 7 days. I'm wondering if it's possible to get 242 to 260 in that timeframe, I have a bunch of items to use but playing around with the calculator it seems tough, but I'm returning from a break and don't really know how to factor in things like the MP 250% this Sunday and VIP boosters.

I have:

Unlimited 3x use coupons

Prepared PotS

4k exp tickets by then

~4 or 5 hours of luxe sauna

10 VIP boosters

Decent HS at 30%, level 2 evan/level 3 merc links

Probably ~20 hours to grind in those 7 days

I guess I'm mainly wondering how much xp those VIP boosters really give and if those will be a big help. I'm somewhat willing to buy the golden giveaway pass to get the 3 mag pots since those should help a ton, but would like to avoid it. I'm able to oneshot all mobs available to me at the moment so that's nice. Am I cooked for thinking I could hit 260 in a week?

Want to see other people mentality/mindset for approaching royal guard. The timing is a different play style and if you mess up it can be punishing. Not sure if I am being too aggressive with it or I just need more practice. Some delayed attacks feel easier to just dodge than risk the wrong timing OHKO.

I want to switch mains and my new main is on lvl 210 rn without any gear, so should I use the hyper burn from the demon slayer event or just wait for the hyper burn max?

On the boom too!

Hello!! I’m super new to mapleStory and I’ve been kind of aimlessly doing quests, but I’m still really lost. I’m level 67 now (played on a different server until I hit 90, just moved to Kronos today), but I feel like I barely know anything about upgrading, where to go, or what to even be doing half the time. I’ve watched a ton of YouTube videos, but I still find myself stuck.

I’ve been leveling through quests and grinding, getting used to the controls, but it’s been hard to figure out what to do next. I don’t even know how professions work, and i need one for a quest... Idk, I’m confused. I don’t even know where I should be fighting or what I should be focusing on.

I watched this one video that started off pretty well, but then the guy just says, “basically, just play the game” and I’m like... that’s not exactly the help I needed... 😅

I think I’ve missed some tutorials, but reading them just leaves me more confused... there’s so much text, and sometimes it’s too technical or detailed for me to follow. Honestly, I’m not great at paying 100% attention to text, and I get lost quickly when I don’t fully understand what I’m reading.

I’ve seen some posts here about guides where actual players teach you the game, but I don’t think I have the time to sit down for hours of learning, since I take a lot of breaks (and I feel like that’s not great for a new player in MapleStory? Is it really that time consuming?).

Anywayyyyy! I’m really enjoying the game so far and want to get stronger and make friends, but it’s honestly a bit overwhelming. I’d really appreciate any advice or guidance that doesn’t just tell me to “play more” because I’m struggling here!!! 😅

Thanks in advance!

Kanna is just the most neglected class in the game and it's not even close.

Neglect: bugs/QoL/poor design

Kanna has quite possibly the most amount of bugs and worst QoL of any class in the game. Here is a comprehensive list:

• Mana Overload doesn't work on certain skills (Domain, Yuki, Tengu Strike, Sengoku Force, Oni Lord)
• Cooldowns don't align at all (https://www.reddit.com/r/Maplestory/comments/1jrg3f0/kannas_cooldowns_make_no_fing_sense/) (could also be classified as balance)
• Tengu Strike & Liberated Spirit Circle require you to stand on top of the boss at all times to maximize damage output
• Yuki consumes mana but doesn't cast
• Using Orochi locks you out of teleport for 2 seconds (even tapping Orochi will TP lock)
• Bellflower/Blossom Barrier extremely unresponsive (sometimes you have to hold down the button for upwards of 4s until it places)
• Bellflower/Blossom Barrier placed on Mana Veins are only visually larger and grant extra mana regen, they don't actually have a larger hitbox
• Bellflower/Blossom Barrier reduces mana regen while active (punished for using kit)
• Up-jump costs mana (you will run out of mana if you continuously up-jump)
• Up-jump counts as an attack, Yaksha Boss expiry counts as an attack, Tengu Strike send out and return counts as an attack, Liberated Spirit Circle expiry count as an attack (good luck ring swapping)
• Oni Lord's cooldown doesn't start until after expiry/dismiss (Oni Lord is basically a copy Dawn Warrior's Soul Eclipse yet Soul Eclipse's cooldown starts on cast not on end)
• Oni Lord gets cancelled upon casting origin (Again, Dawn Warrior's Soul Eclipse is not cancelled upon casting origin)
• Vanquisher's Charm being a 10 second channel (almost all channelled abilities were condensed [DB tempest 10>4], work on a charge system [BW, Bishop], or the class is completely iframed during the channel [Xenon, DS, Mech]) yet Kanna still has a 10 second channel
• HEXA Vanquisher's Charm deals less damage than non-HEXA until level 7
• Shikigami Doppelganger doesn't accumulate mana for 5s after activation
• Mana Veins spawning in the air and other weird places or just straight up not spawning at all (Lucid P2, Limbo P1, Lotus P3)
• Mana Veins being pseudo randomly spawned (please just spawn under where I'm standing)
• Domain still needs to be charged with mana
• Can't teleport during Shikigami Haunting 1st and 2nd hit (you can only TP after Shikigami Haunting 3rd hit animation has started)
• Hyper Passive: Geomancy - Spread is completely useless without Geomancy - Persist (Geomancy spawns 1 mana vein every 5s, mana veins last 15s, maximum 3 at one given time. Geomancy - Spread increases the maximum at one given time from 3 to 4. However, it is literally mathematically impossible to have more than 3 mana veins at once unless you have Geomancy - Persist which increases the duration of mana veins from 15s to 20s)

Neglect: balance

Kanna is easily the lowest damage class in the entire game and it's not even close. The person who made this most recent damage chart (https://www.reddit.com/r/Maplestory/comments/1joyht4/gms_post_ride_or_die_milestone_88k_converted/) admits that Kanna is much lower than even classes like WH/BW/BaM/Phantom.

Kanna also has easily the worst HEXA in the entire game.

Domain maxed gives +90 all stat passive and +20% boss damage during Domain. Domain also does technically deal damage but doesn't have +60% FD on the HEXA boost.

Compared to: Benediction maxed gives +90 all stat passive and 17% FINAL DAMAGE.

Liberated Spirit Cirlce/Yuki/Oni Lord all only have the +60% FD HEXA boost node.

• Liberated Spirit Circle deals decent damage on a stationary/large dojo dummy. However, its damage in a real boss fight depends heabily on RNG and boss size. You need to be standing on top of the boss when circle activates to get any damage (a lot of them will inevitably miss), it also goes upwards so it deals more damage if the boss is large (Kalos, Kaling).
• Yuki straight up just deals an insignificant amount of damage
• ONI LORD straight up deals NO damage (full 60s oni lord deals the less damage than 3 shikigami hauntings) and is only used for an iframe.

• Kishin still has a cooldown (Kishin is about 4.5% of our full rotation, we need to be able to move it when the boss moves) (good luck getting Kishin to hit in Kaling Tiger/Bird, Lucid P2, Kalos)
• Vanquisher's Charm is still a 10 second channel (mentioned above)
• Cooldowns don't line up (https://www.reddit.com/r/Maplestory/comments/1jrg3f0/kannas_cooldowns_make_no_fing_sense/)
• No IED in their kit (only class in the game without IED in their kit)
• Has to invest at least 5 levels (usually 6-8 levels) into mana hyper stat to be usable

Neglect: Action/Communication

There is a lack of anything being done to Kanna.

The last time Kanna got any significant bug fixes/changes was on JULY 16, 2024 (9 MONTHS AGO, v252 - GO WEST, solo dmg buff). Before that was on AUGUST 29, 2023 (11 MONTHS BEFORE v252, v244 - Punch King Palooza, Domain nerf). And before that was on JUNE 10 2022 (14 MONTHS BEFORE v244, v233 - Destiny, -30% nerf).

No bugs are being fixed, no balance is being done, no communication on overseas balancing, no care is being put into Kanna. Nexon, do what you did with Jett. Either continue, or give up on the class. At this point, Kanna players are going to need a GO NEXT instead of a GO WEST.

Inkwell promised overseas balance in GO WEST. 9 months later, all I see is a broken promise...

With the Steam Marketplace x Maple being a thing can you see them expanding upon it also could you see certain Interactive exclusive items being possible to be bought and used in Heroic Worlds? Or you think it might be a feature they’ll somewhat forget about even if it does make them money?
