I just got back into Maplestory after 4 years in my 10 year journey and I still barely know anything about the game so I really appreciate your content
Loved the segue between the two pirate classes on your list. Overall this is a really helpful guide to those looking starting out; reinforcing the often overlooked mantra: "Play the class you enjoy, not the one that is strong"
I main an I/L and it truly shines after 5th job. Though I leveled it up with no link skills and no legion, so it was quite hard after level 130 (2014), I got to lvl 200 in 2018. Anyways, I enjoy I/L very much and I don't regret having chosen it back in 2006.
Man, I played Maple story back in 2006 and continue to play until they forced region lock (I played in Taiwan server and I am in New Zealand). Watching those video certainly reminded me the good times I had and see the changes over the years.
By your definition an unfunded player is basically someone who can never pass the 25k stat mark, so it kinda comes off as nonsense when you say that classes that are strong at mid game and beyond are supposed to be among the top unfunded classes. Ark's strong point is at 45k+ stat, good unfunded class btw. I don't mean to hate, I enjoy your videos, but this one is particular seems to be poorly thought out and many of the statements that you make in this video are contradictory and likely to confuse new/returning players.
yea his list works for most people definition its people that cant not afford cubes. all these classes work with the few boss cubes that drop and never have to buy red black or white cubes to do work
This video would be useful for reboot players who are casual, don’t want to grind meso on Kanna constantly, or if they only plan to play for a few months and then quit (like for summer, etc) and also solo players.
I’m glad you emphasize the “fun” part of classes. Personally, for me, Im unfunded and Main a hero which only happens to be a hard hitting class but is very fun to me since the class is very straightforward and no nonsense. You’re playing a video game to have fun, not to flex on others 🤡
Imho, as someone who has mained both for at least 2 years+, achieving optimal dpm on Cadena is harder than Blaster. Blaster is easily the second hardest class (mechanically), but I personally felt that Cadena was harder. The apm is lower, sure, but Blaster is a rotation that becomes muscle memory once you learn it, while Cadena has 7/8 skills to cycle through while cancelling with chain strike and/or grapple in addition to managing summons and cooldowns.
`play whatever you find fun` has always been ridiculous for me. So play every character to a level where I understand their kits and just hope one clicks more than the other dozen? Play a class dont find it fun, stop. Play another, dont find it fun, etc.. Usually when I ask about characters and people say that, they miss the point that im asking for descriptions of classes and what they do, why I would or wouldnt like em. *so* thank you for this.

How can you say AB's burst is A when almost all of its burst skills/buffs run on 10-30 second timers, which conveniently fits in a nice 40 second burst window. If you're talking about lack of lines, you should take a took at stacking all 3 of its 5th job skills....especially Summon Mascot, which by itself is 243 ish lines.
Hey real question here New player in reboot server, and I wanted to know your opinion on Corsair because I haven’t been able to find another Corsair player here. Thanks 🙏
My GF just started playing, so I helped fund an AB for her. That class is insane, it does insane damage for where it's at in progression and the waveclear for mobbing is so easy why don't more people play that class... it blows my mind.
I've played ark as my main since it came out sometime last year and all I can say is my god it can be hard to keep track of your character. It was easily the most fun class to play and the aesthetic of it reminded me of Velvet Crowe from Tales of Berseria, which I had just finished sinking my life into. It's a shame that after coming back from a near 6 month hiatus I'm not really enjoying the level grind at 205+. Though to be fair, I also have never really attempted to get to the "endgame" of maplestory in the 10-15 years I've been playing it.
even then it doesn't matter... you can still solo the game with any class... it's all about skills.... and how much you pay the game for re-rolls... but, they never said anything about that Cygnus knights.... level every 5 levels to get a +1 or something like that... to the attribute... which is needed or if you have already 200 level character.... as for new players i recommended Cygnus knights first play though... to get that bless skill to 10? level 50???? then 100 to get it at 20 points.
ps maplestory is still one the of best MMORPG and it's better than all triple A games that came out in 2019... like anthem, fallout 76, and world of warcraft expainsion in 2020 which they are scaling your level from 120 to 60....
my first class was Aran i used to like it when it came out and 1 day i grinded over 60 lvl to my surprise of being back to lvl 42 after they reverted the servers back 3 days earlier so i quit. cameback sometimes to play a little for nostalgia and now i decided to go for real and make end game a thing for me. im going for a demon avenger already got some of the link skills i need.
Dual blade for 9 years now....I feel old...My last and best class was an ice mage...or my buccaneer class (when there was still HOLY SHIT MAPLESTORY HAS A NEW CLASS NOW!! PIRATES!!!! craze going on) I remember when the dual blades got released. It was before basic training...now we have I don't even know. Does anyone even play the base classes anymore? Any regular thieves or warriors anymore? Does anyone even remember the original Archer? :c
Sorry to necro haha, pretty much same here. I started around then too, I wanted to make a Night Lord since I was in my edgy Naruto phase. Got stressed since I didn’t have Lucky Seven. Turns out I picked Dual Blade at the Create Character screen and made do. One of the best mistakes of my life hahah ❤
Spear hasnt been the same since they removed all of the dragon attacks but I havent played in a few years either. I worked so hard for a UA Spear just for it tp be changed up.
Ark is fun. But probably a contribution to it being not played as much (also why I gave it up as my main) was that whole ark ban wave that happened a year ago. Got banned twice and just refuse to touch my ark now.
Early to Mid game AB is stronger in KMS because of the super low ping. Trinity cannot be used again until the skill recharges. Even when you have 100% recharge rate at 4th job, the Recharge mechanic is server sided, so every millisecond of extra ping reduces your DPS. However when you reach the attack speed cap in GMS, AB is suddenly stronger in GMS because it more than makes up for the extra ping you deal with for recharges.
I really don't think your definition of "unfunded" works here. An unfunded player will have a really hard time to reach the 25k stat, and thus imo an unfunded classes is one that performs well before reaching this mark. Most of the classes you mentioned were late game classes, but an unfunded player is not going to reach that :(
Neuroth unfunded means the class is strong even if you dont put too many time, money and effort in it. And 25k stat isnt that hard if u research and know what to do
@@Slymshadi1710 imo an unfunded character is one that does not have the mesos to starforce or the NX to cube (or mesos in reboot). This means reaching 25k is near impossible. A good unfunded character would therefore be one that shines in this stage of the game. With that in mind, Zeroes can cube their main weapon for free, they don't need to cube a secondary, and can flame their weapon for free as well. This is what I'd consider a more unfunded friendly character. Another class that is fairly unfunded friendly would be demon avenger. Having HP as main stat is good because for other classes this is considered a useless stat, and thus +hp% weapons are generally cheaper. But this all lies with your definition of "unfunded". To me, a late game class is not suitable for people without money or mesos.
Zero cant cube their main wep for free??? Do u even play the class if thats the case everyone would play zero. It seems that you havent even played past mid game so you just dont know what you are talking about. Unfunded means u fund it as little as you can but it still deals good dmg. And dont talk about havin zero mesos with me. There is alot of ways to make mesos like dojo gollux mules or commerci. With all that you should have enough to get your gear to 17* 15% uniq and decent flame then thats enough for 25k. The only way you cant reach 25k is either you dont have the knowledge needed or you just dont have time but cant really complain to be not as strong as other players who spend their time to upgrade their gears. I played in reg sever and im at 40k stat in 1 year without spending any money and Im not even play all the time.
That might be in normal servers,but not on reboot, plus end game doesnt mean being able to solo nearly all bosses, u can be 40k stat and be end game in reboot,and on normal servers cuz ure able to defeat all end game bosses except black mage in a party, to have 70k stat on reboot is virtually impossible unless ure a hacker and even then idk if it can be achieved.
Yes, playing a fun class s important to enjoying this game, but let them make that decision, don’t make it for them. If they want damage then let them have damage if they hate it, they will continue looking, but telling them no you can’t have it, because this is better for you, isn’t the right choice. Let them make the decision, and if they end up wasting their time, the they’ll have learned for this game and for future games.
Hold up u put hero in this i would never in my life recomend that boring class to any new player i would level a jett before i suffer having to level that thing to 200
Disnya gracias papu, estaba leveleando un Aran porque quería q sea mi pj principal, sin embargo he visto los skills del Angelic búster y creo que es mejor. Así que me gustaría saber más de ese pj (como usar sus skills)

If you're watching this as a Reboot player or have a different definition of unfunded, nothing in this video will be accurate
Yo my fellow fft lover, whats a reboot tier list? Just came back a few days ago for this burning event.
This video would be useful for reboot players who are casual, don’t want to grind meso on Kanna constantly, or if they only plan to play for a few months and then quit (like for summer, etc) and also solo players.

Maybe the fun part is flexing on others 🤔
Early game is to 25k stat ? i quit :D
11 years of progress and hearing your only early game hurts :3
Gotta do your pots bois.
thats not true at all. dont be discourged
Remember early game we only given 25 stat lol

mobbing isn't very special in this day and age.
Whiyu seeing as there’s as entire server dedicated to mobbing and meso farming most of the time that’s kinda false
Whiyu what about Kanna?
Fire Emblem three houses background music? :D Nice
I always felt angelic buster's early game to be extremely weak. Is that supposed to be the case or am I playing her wrongly?
She gets really strong mid and endgame.
@@foussi739 when is mid and endgame? cuz idk why she sucks when i solo boss.... i feel like shes only good at mobbing
I heard Ark isn't performing too hot in KMS right now. Does that mean that ark will be underperforming in gms in the future too?
i have been playing luminous since it came out... send help
wdym???
Thoughts for Kanna VS PF?
Brand new player, what class would you recommend?
How can you say AB's burst is A when almost all of its burst skills/buffs run on 10-30 second timers, which conveniently fits in a nice 40 second burst window.

i hope you're planning to continue your beginner guide when u com4. back during the winter :)
Where would Bishops be on this list if you're mainly playing with friends?
Bishops are my favourite class ever since the game came out, but their damage is so awful
"there's more to the game than just doing damage"
That's news to me.
im new to his channel and he explains very well im asking why does he not play MS anymore?
gonna miss your MapleStory videos
It was a privilege man :3
I've mained a Demon Slayer ever since I watched your video last year! I'm thinking of picking up angelic buster to sink time into next. Keep it up!
Baksy u shld do it (๑´ㅂ`๑). I was a ds main and i also second main Angelic Buster. You will love it 💖

My first class was ark actually, but my computer is so damn slow i quit after lvl 20 lmao
You dodged a bullet
Nothing cluncky about blaster it’s so smooth wtf
Would Kanna be a good class to main for reboot for a casual player?
Hatsune Miku dressed as Megaman?
I'm sold!
i was always the angelic buster the game style doesn't change a thing the thing that i had a hard time was cannoner
even then it doesn't matter... you can still solo the game with any class... it's all about skills.... and how much you pay the game for re-rolls... but, they never said anything about that Cygnus knights.... level every 5 levels to get a +1 or something like that... to the attribute... which is needed or if you have already 200 level character.... as for new players i recommended Cygnus knights first play though... to get that bless skill to 10? level 50???? then 100 to get it at 20 points.

do u play still? what server
