![Maple Story [Bera] - Using Xenon origin skill for the 1st time!](/img/n.gif)
Blaster is probably one of the most satisfying characters I've played on Maplestory and revived my enjoyment for the game due to its complexity. I used to play simpler classes like Demon Slayer where I didn't have to focus on the boss mechanics as much but with Blaster I actually had to pay attention to what was happening and it made the game more engaging
Absolutely, this is probably the most engaging and rewarding class in the game, there isnt quite anything else like Blaster~
I'd say u playing DS prior was a big factor due to the fact that u got the chance to learn boss mechanics on an easy to play job. I can't imagine having to learn blaster mechanics as a new player on top of learning the boss mechanics, blaster is not a newbie friendly class.
Well sadly we werent born with robotic fingers like you so yeah..
ur cracked lmaoooo
I'm not good enough for the super complex classes like Cadena and Blaster, but I like that they're really strong if you can get good at them.
1. Be some what not shit at jumping.
2. Spam Magnum Punch
3. Get lvl 200 and realize theres gauge system.
4. Talk to legion npc and leave your Blaster to daycare forever. Congratulations on your legion mule!
Look, i am horrible at playing blaster. So if you want to see proper gameplay please check out these video!

Play Guilty Gearand you womt have anymore problems playing Blaster
unluggi
I used to main blaster and I can confirm that it actually hurt my risk like hell. For both training and killing boss, but it’s still a really fun class to learn
This is an awesome video you made on my main! You broke down the basics perfectly haha
I think the other issue with blaster is the lack of truly rewarding the player for playing the way they have too. Too many characters can do what blaster can do with out the load amount of work, and maplestory is the type of game that isn't really rewarding the higher skill ceiling type of gameplay. Game is basically jump in the air, flash jump, press the button, rinse and repeat, and if your damage is crazy high you do even less lol.
Good stuff as usual too copper san!
Edit: blaster mobility is crazy dope and it's insane how much the character really dumps on others in accordance to the mobility
If you want to skate more consistently, if you happen to have jump on spacebar try putting it on a different key like the row above spacebar with double jump on spacebar. The logic for this is that you'll activate jump first due to the keys on the keyboard being different heights causing regular buttons to be activated earlier than double jump
Blaster was one of my favorite "new" class when I played.
Mostly because the weapon remembers me of Bloodborne's Stake driver but fast.
Everytime I see a Blaster guide or showcase I get depressed. This class in terms of aesthetics and concept is my absolute favorite in the game BY FAR, and I tried so hard to learn it, spending every single attack I did while leveling WITHOUT BURNING to practice my NRL combos. After getting to level 220, I broke. It just wasn't worth it and it just didn't seem to click after constantly messing up the jump cancels, much less do it in bossing. To say I despaired would be an understatement, but after all that I could safely say that i'm just not built for Blaster, my favorite class.
Dont worry. As a blaster main, I'll say just take it easy. Do it slowly and practice. Eventually, you will get used to it. Once you get really good at it, it will feel like things have slowed down for you.
Blaster hits that itch that I miss as a fighting game player, feels so satisfying to do a crazy combo on a boss while evading attacks with bobbing and weaving.
Class deserves to be the strongest in the game
I completely agree!!
This class is goted, ppl are just to afraid to try, like when they are too afraid to play Street Fighter or Guilty Gear because either "Fighting games are too hard" or "Fighting games just arent for me"
@@HyrulianBeastafraid is the wrong word this ain’t a fighting game either it’s maplestory and endless grinding
Some people no life 10+ hours a day
And you expect them to want to break their fingers playing a complicated high input class?
@HyrulianBeast idk about afraid, I think there's some real legitimacy to worrying about how much effort you need to put into a character to enjoy the game. Happens in fighting games too, why pick up Shulk in smash when you can play Aegis.
Tho I will say, people put off blaster before trying it. An hour of practice was all I needed to get down the combo, and then a couple of tries of bosses to get down. Not perfect, but usable.
@@cameronstrouth7614 blaster is an amazing class but nexon makes it so hard to main cause grinding level is also a big part of this game and blaster suckssssss so bad at mobbing. Other class, let's just stand at 1 spot and spam some buttons, or let's double jump and press a button. Blaster is just unhealthy to play if you have to mob so much.
i mained Blaster for a while, after learning the mechanics, and its soo much fun, but its soo involved as well. i will say its the "sweaty" class, but its so satisfying when you hit your rhythm and just decimate everything while floating across the map. playing blaster properly is not for the weak willed, especially once the bossing becomes a part of your routine. it can be either the best bossing experiences, or a constatnt state of pain from mistiming your animation cancels, or accidentally jumping in the middle of your combo. Blaster is like the polar opposite to the "one and done" classes but its equally as fun once you get the hang out it.
this lol, i was happy when I found out about blaster. finally a class that required the use of your brain to play. made xp grinding easier too because you didn't have to fight constant drowsiness unlike other easier classes.
Yeah, my 120+ apm for hours on end days have been over for a long time. No way I'd ever play this class. All the power to the youngsters who still can though. I always appreciate when a dev puts in a git gud class for those who want more.
i feel like my hands died just watching the video. im just gonna go back to maining buccaneer
Play Guilty Gear and you wont have that problem anymore uwu
came back to maple recently and decided to burn one bc of its high skill ceiling, got clapped in cra but we got the job done. hard to keep uptime on this class optimally ngl
It is, but it feels so rewarding and fun when you do ^^
if the mobbing was simple i'd be intersted, but i kinda dont want to have to put all that attention into mobbing... i did pick luminous as my main after all
Games more fun when you play Blaster
@@HyrulianBeast if bossing is all there was then yeah sure but theres no way im subjecting myself to having to pay extreme attention while mobbing
@@itsLalm you dont have to learn to skate shotgun punch out the gate, you can just jump around like you would with any other class and learn it as you go. If you can get the NRL combo down thats the main bread and butter.
Im gonna start making Blaster Videos just because I Love maining this class, they are my new main because my old main (Jett) is getting removed, because global cant optimise for crap.
I liked leveling my blaster for my legion but man it was rough. For sure could use a revamp on the linking skills or have them auto-like i.e beyond blade for Aran. It a super cool and satisfying class but for sure held back by the learning curve/key commitment
Blaster's attacks are pretty dumbed down now (one key for both mobbing and bossing skills) and charge skills can't be dumbed down any more than they are now without fundamentally changing the class, which nobody who actually plays the class wants. Nexon added "easy mode" toggles for bob and weave but they're just worse. Being a high skill class doesn't hold it back from anything, those who like it will like it and those who don't won't, same as any other class.
One day I watched a blaster bossing video and decided "I wanna try that", so I just did. I was absolutely horrible at the beginning. So I buckled down and spent all of 3 days grinding to level 200 and getting the hang of the basic combos. If you're not willing to put in that effort then the class just isn't for you.
Do you think you could make a video talking about the game-breaking blaster bug that's been around for years now?
I used to main a merc but moved onto blaster back in the day. other classes were unplayable because they're so brain dead you could actually fall asleep while grinding for EXP. blaster has a bunch of skills with abusable IFrames but it's a very sketchy character to play because positional attacks from bosses can be hard to avoid especially if you're executing a combo attack and mashing keys.
the burst damage it does is phenomenal if you get it set up right. i'd still continue to main blaster if i ever decide to rejoin the game which isn't likely.
can't do a blaster vid without a cadena vid 👀
very interesting, both are capable of obscene dps with some mastery but I wonder if in the modern times they are even that much better in that regard than the simpler, meta classes? after all, that is really the only objective reason to play these classes, especially blaster
Idk about cadena but blaster has 3 s, which makes low stat solos and also gollux MUCH easier to do. The %hp mitigation makes most bosses drastically easier to deal with when used properly (tanking queen breath as an example)
the thing is that both classes have a lot of utility in their kit compared to glass cannon classes like F/P mages who always top the damage charts. So in a sense when played optimally yes they would outperform when their dps is among the top and yet has utility. The problem is mobbing, their mobbing doesn't outperform simple classes like dawn warrior yet takes significantly more effort and you spend 90% of your time grinding if you want to progress, so unless you really like playing the class in bossing there really isn't a reason to play it
@@Roflmao6173 There is indeed merit to what you're saying. I see blaster as a very efficient bossing mule if you're willing to develop a basic understanding of the combo. I literally would have quit maple years ago if it wasn't for blaster so I am willing to put up with the mediocre mobbing experience myself.
People play blaster because they enjoy it. That's the only objective reason to play it. It's already a strong class, it doesn't need to swamp simpler classes just because it requires some practice and brainpower.
I got two blaster one in Aurora very low and 1 as the Purple Lighting Sara Valestein :)
hoping for a guide on progression after lomian
I feel like the main Resistance Classes not counting the Demons or Xenon are the ones up next for reworks
People are missing the point. By focusing on doing the skill smoother you will actually forget how much damage you can do. Playing Blaster requires a mindset of actually doing things better rather than actually demands it or constant compare the class that require less effort that can achieve same or even more outcome. It's a cult of a class.
Either ADHD or caffeine addict once you understand the benefit of high apm namely the dopamine brought to this game, there is no going back. Every class will be so boring you wouldn't want to switch main. At least this is the thought of me as a Blaster main.
This class is like made for super smash bros melee players or made to be used with a controller I can hear the clicking already
Nah, this is Street fighter/Guilty gear actually, smash doesnt have jump cancelling and ani cancelling like that
@@HyrulianBeast high level melee does: z jumping, wavedash shine, multi shine are animation cancelling and jump cancelling. They are just not meant to be unlike street fighter which uses it as a mechanic
We love coppersan!
Blaster best class
Im main blaster serv luna lv 239 I first practiced 6 months combs in lv 200
If the class remove the ping reliant on the bullet system, I would 100% play the character
The only thing that is ping related on blaster is the aftershock on some of their skills.
@@Jon-lx5de Higher ping makes bullet load slower, thus charging bunker longer. I have to NRL 4 times to charge to max, normally it's only 3. I haven't play for a few months tho, so idk about the character atm. I heard about the NRL combo post savior patch, but haven't tried.
Funny how the very moment you uploaded the video I decided to make Blaster my sub-main. Still practicing combos and all but the class has real big potential. I'm kinda hard stuck at level 112 spending endless amounts of Mana pots to keep practicing but seeing improvements gives me motivation and I'll eventually level it up, somewhen.
Its the most fun class, try to find different combo routes when you train, and remember to jump cancel bobbing and weaving instead of charge cancelling, only charge the ability that leaves a zone.
@@HyrulianBeast So far I've been doing the no reload combo pretty well just with bobbing but weaving for some reason throws me off everytime, I have some muscle memory at this point that I can just do the combo without looking but weaving even when in place of the bobbing key gives me some struggles but this is just day one for me (^:
Also shame you didn't mention the blaster bug
Blaster is honestly my favorite class in the game. Amazing looking skills, 6th job animation is badass and having a giant arm cannon is cool as hell. I have one sitting at 250, one day i'll pick it back up.
Carpal tunnel speed run
The biggest thing I dislike about this class is how polarizing it feels to play. You either practice and actually get proficient at your weaving combos which is not easy to get down, or you feel miserable trying to do the most basic of content, and there's no in between. I love the class's aesthetic so much, and I want to like it so much, but struggling to even hit 140 put me off from wanting to continue.
I only play this class when I am angry. It's a great way to relief
Here I am thinking I can change my Jett to a blaster to keep my equips
id love to continue breaking my hands playing blaster
but post 260, the classes who win are the ones that have brainless grinding.
Skating on its own has gotta be the most annoying thing you need to know to do if you wanna efficiently grind.
yep, still my favorite class.
Because it was designed and used exclusively for Michael Bay 🚗💥... 😂
the mechanic of having to hold down an attack button then releasing it to trigger an attack is called Negative Edge in fighting games. blaster plays like a very technical street fighter character.
at this point, it's worth to change the title to Why no one plays resistance classes.
such a great video
me too lazy so i just combo. got one at 233 and one of two chars that are supporting my hyper and khali.
I burned a Blaster and at 160 i am enjoying the class. Idk what all the fuss is about this class being hard/difficult class to play.
make one for jet to
Blaster would be absolutely amazing as a class if it wasnt EXTREMLY ping dependant. I have one on 205 but I just cant use it properly cuz one hitch in the connection and you drop the combo
Maplestory is so different from when I played 😆😆
You know how it is. Nobody wants to buy a new keyboard every month. Not to mention, carpal tunnel cannot be taken lightly. :D
Joking aside- yeah, the trend is still there. While Blaster is an awesome class when played properly, the amount of things one must learn to play this class efficiently is simply not worth it. Yeah, it looks cool and you may gain the respect of your friends (or people on youtube if you're into that), but other than that... why not just play Hero, for example? Far less work for the same results.
Probably better results in all honesty… or dw
because an explosive revolver glove is cool as fuck
Because heroes can’t punch stuff so no.
i want to play blaster but I cant combo because of ping issue
Im sorry to hear that
combo is not ping related so that's not the issue. (reloading is based on ping tho)
Its gotten to the point the combos are auto pilot... help
Soooo...Blaster looks like a Devil May Cry's character with a cannon and shotgun?
I think the issue with complex characters is that they usually have loads of keybinds but with little actual benefit. It can be really difficult to learn how to play it optimally and let's face it, while people would do the right thing if they knew what to do, they don't want to look at the dps meter and optimize rotations.
Also called "Keyboard Busters", Blaster mains I know often burn through keyboards like eating bags of chips.
Instead of holding down bobbing and weaving, I do it the street fighter way and just manually jump cancel :/ works well enough for me but nah, I ain't playing Blaster any more than I need to
Yeah same, i actually didnt even realize you can charge bobbing and weaving, i just time my jumps with my dashes and attacks~
I'm sad cause this class has possibly the best looking skills in the game and I would love to play it, but it's just too hard. I tried learning to cancel bobbing and weaving by jumping, but I never managed to get it to work, and that's without trying to attack at the same time.
that's your problem . as I played Blaster mid farming, I tried practicing the Weaving etc, and only when I started hitting while doing it I managed to get the handle of it . u can also cancel them by re-activate the dashes before u reach it's end . if you only press 1 key, it makes u activate a new dash after cancelling instead of doing it right
good for you.
Bro, you really had to post this after I hyper burned one…
Blaster is the type of class you log on to, say “new main” and make your friends laugh. Then you log off and go on your real main. 😅
is the class ping reliant?
Yep, the higher the ping, the de-sync experience with bullet recharging/ charging will be more noticeable
I play blaster - I have 8 blaster mules lol
but im a blaster main :(
Yeah I really wanted to play this class- and it broke my wrist.
Ah yes, I remember this used to be the best job to hack on as it had a pretty solid all map attack.
copper brother 33 isnt that old, you are in your physical prime, believe in yourself
Bucc sure came along way💀💀
Oh and also Blaster has more than 2 i-frames. One of their passives makes it so that you're invincible during for an example the bobbin weaving animations, you can add a hyperskill point to add this property to the animation of bunker buster explosion too, it's completely broken they probably have the most possible i-frames in the game
It's not an i-frame, it's superarmor and a percent reduction on all damage taken (including hp%). You can get superarmor from charged Bobbing/Weaving, Bunker Buster (with hyperstat), charging HMP, and Gatling Punch. But none of those are i-frames. Only Bullet Blast and Hyper Magnum Punch's ending animation are i-frames.
How is that possible if were 1000+ hyperblasting a blaster
def i prefer my cadena,
Blaster is plenty strong, but I am too weak.
Man I can barely sit thru these explanations all the way thru, how do ppl play this class on purpose for fun
Its literally a fighting game character, and i love fighting games, ez
I feel like people starts first with the idea to built a fundation with Legion and Link skills so we can tell that 0.6% are either too dedicated to optimization and have the hands or they felt in love with complex mechanics in a 2d game that is very unlikely.
Welp, im the latter, i love fighting games, and this is literally a fighting game character in my favorite MMO, what more could I want?
because no one has working fingers before level 250 anymore
0:30 - classes that just use one attack and jump around the map ... AMATEURS.
Real pros don't jump around the map nor attack. They spawn one tornado to mob them all then just lazily walk for loot.
Wind Archer ftw :]
Wind Archer mobbing is so cracked after the 4th V release covering the tornado cd downtime 😂😂
I'd play blaster if they got rid of the need to charge abilities in general. I don't mind the comboing personally, but feel like the class would feel better if they got rid of the no reload thing in exchange for other buffs on reloading. Like I have no problem with the whole bob/weave combo feature. Just not a fan of the charging needed. It's already a very button mash heavy as it is.
So delete the class? Go play Dawn Warrior bro XD
@@kidakazeda9245 No need to be a dick, and I don't even have a DW nor ever planned on playing one. Just saying that blaster could be player friendly while still keeping it's core gameplay there. Changing the charge mechanic would still require you to still mash a bunch of buttons.
@@PiEiNtHeFaCe22 Not being a dick just poking fun. It was my way of saying Blaster isn't for everyone and that's fine.
@coppersan i joined your channel but i dont want you to shout out my name. can you shout out "marksette" instead? thank you
Imposiburry!!!
if only they made the more skillfull classes do the most damage as a reward for playing them perfectly...
그렇게 게임을 잘한다는 한국인도 블래스터를 플레이하는 것은 어렵습니다...
WAYTOODANK
Because it's a resistance class without a special storyline that still uses a weird special weapon that doesn't even fit warrior that much
It doesnt fit warrior much, but warrior fits it, because Warrior is usually a class with High damage and HP abilities, which is exactly what Blaster has, if Blaster was a Pirate, I doubt they'd be as fun and efficient~
I'm pretty sure blaster was originally meant to be a pirate but got moved to warrior due to xenon filling the resistance pirate role
@@frosted3mechanic is a resistance pirate too 💀 cmon
@@HyrulianBeast the weapon, not the class
those reddit users lied to me xd
Oh this class is doing way too much. 😅
The class feels too complicated for its own good, like Nexon tried way too hard to make Blaster interesting. I liked the manual ammo system but bob&weave was an unnecessary gimmick when it should have just been a basic maneuverability tool.
I also think animation cancelling is a lazy and bad way for Nexon to punish players for not playing optimally. I play Cadena and it feels rewarding to cancel, but that doesn't necessarily translate to fun, especially when there's an abundance of classes that perform without the hassle like Hero and DS...hence nobody playing Blaster.
ok bud just go play dw and leave the class to the people who enjoy it
What an odd way to say "I didn't read your comment".
Nah fam I'm good😂
You genuinely need a fight stick to properly play blaster lmao 😂
"why no one plays blaster"
cuz it hard, the end
tbh they should make blasters a LOT easier to play, in turn lowering their final dmg a bit, while leaving the really complex combo mechanics so the pro blasters can still be the top of the class
Arthritis Speedrun Any%
Do you play fighting games 24/7?
Cause this is just a fighting game character, so I guess all fighting game players have arthritis.
@@HyrulianBeast One normally does not play a fighting game with a keyboard unless they have a death wish.
i'm not going to lie, this is probably one of the only videos i actually skipped around in... this class is a major headache lol
trash class deleted it. Give us back jett
Ehh at this point playing maple is pretty much a second job. Leveling eventually gets too slow and you're doing the same thing over and over again.
Boring
For mobbing you just jump and spam 1 button
Bossing is something else lol
