Q & A

Q: Where can i find the Maple Staff(Lv 35, +100 maxHP) as shown on the
Mapleglobal website?
A: My guess is that the Maple Staff isn’t ready for release yet. To prove my
words, I have several evidences here.
Firstly, i have checked numerous sites and it seems even the Japanese version
has not released the Maple Staff. Furthermore, no one on maple global has
mentioned finding a Maple Staff.
Secondly, other Maple weapons are also not found yet. My buddy, Bowser0, also
desire to own a Maple Bow. Like the Maple staff, no one has seen or talked
about it. However, he heard a rumour about it being dropped by monsters on
Ossyria.
Lastly, you can check the Maple Global site under the Etc item and still see
Jr.Yeti’s Skin, Lunar Pixie’s Moon Piece and other items found only on Ossyria.
Hence there is a high chance that the Maple Staff will be released along with
Ossyria, even though it is featured on the Maple Global site.
P.S. Heard that Ossyria is going to be released soon. Lets wait patiently.
Q: Why isn’t Poison as good? There are people who put points into Poison.
A: Well, I don’t like Poison from the effect it does, but some people have
their own preference, don’t they? At most I can think of the following pros and
cons:
Pro: 1) Can hit and run. Then wait till the monster falls.
2) Effect last for a long time at max.
3) Can be used on Fire monsters.
Con: 1) 40% chance of failing.
2) Easily being KSed.
3) Posion base damage reaches 70 only.
4) Monster killed over a long period, can hurt you in the meantime.
5) Useless on Boss such as Mushmom.
6) Useless when 3rd Job advancement comes out. Theres a skill in 3rd Job
which deals fire damage and can poison. Cool.
Q: From level 15-20, isn’t Green Mushroom and Pigs a better choice?
A: Well, its all personal choice. Like I say, Pigs are an alternative, but you
have to face Ribbon Pigs too. Pigs also deal heavy damage and their longer HP
require high Magic Claw which is not available at low levels unless mp regen
and max mp increase is sacrificed. Pigs give 15 exp which is 1 and a half
slimes. But their damage is much higher. Why take more damage?
Green Mushroom sounds good too but they take a large portion of your HP off you
. If you want to play obstacle fights, that is standing and hitting from safe
spots, your training speed will greatly be compromised. If you are thinking of
Hennesys training ground, think of those people KSing you with 1 hit KO.
