    This thread is for posting:
    Islander accomplishment, screenshots, questions, etc.
    as well as a guide to being an Islander that supplies:
    What an islander is, skill builds, AP builds, and exclusive Legends content when it comes to Islanders.


    [​IMG]What is an Islander?[​IMG]
    An Islander is a beginner who chose to stay on the Maple Island. They never take the ship to Lith Harbor and spend their time chilling on the island - usually whacking snails, mushrooms or pigs.

    [​IMG]Islander Skill Build[​IMG]
    It is pretty much undisputed that every Islander, no matter the build or type, goes 3 Nimble Body and 3 Three Snails since you only get 6 skill points.

    Nimble body is a skill that gives 20 speed for 12 seconds with a 1 minute cool down, taking advantage of this skill can help speed up grinding or changing amongst maps. Three Snails maxed is a skill that uses up 1 red snail shell for a long ranged 40 damage with a one handed weapon. This skill will be able to 1 shot every mob on the island besides pigs and mushrooms. Utilizing Three Snails to 1 shot certain mobs can be extremely beneficial in the long run and shouldn't be over looked when adding your skills. Recovery is shit, don't add it.

    [​IMG]Islander AP Builds[​IMG]
    As simple as an Islander might sound, whacking pigs and mushrooms for an eternity, there are actually quite a few different builds. In the end you aren't limited to these builds, but these are some of the most popular ones defined.

    [Hybrid]
    The hybrid build is specific to the STR & DEX stat. You can pretty much interchange these however you want. The most preferred way is to pump roughly around 50~70 STR when you first start out. The STR will help you 1 shot mobs and make the start of your grind as swift as it can be. After the STR is pumped, the rest of your AP should be going into DEX. DEX is one of the most preferred stats for an Island because it helps you 1 shot all the mobs at a faster rate. To emphasize though, it chops up mostly to personal preference, if you know you are going to be using a specific weapon with a high amount of attack you may sub for more STR than DEX.

    [Dexlander]
    DEX is one of the most sought after stats for an islander. It quickly raises your minimum dmg therefore allowing the fastest possible route to 100% 1 shotting all of the mobs on Maple Island. Although DEX is extremely beneficial at later levels, early on it can be quite slow. DEX doesn't do much for maximum damage leaving you to require multiple hits to kill mobs such as pigs or mushrooms. To combat this you may want to make use of attack pots (obtainable from some events) early on as it would be drastically beneficial for this build.

    [Strlander]
    STR is a stat that raises maximum damage. Going this route would speed up your early levels but would also mean that you will most likely be 2 shotting some mobs. Of course the higher your range is the less likely you'll see your minimum damage. This build is typically used with a high attack polearm, with enough STR and attack on a polearm, you can achieve 100% 1 hit status.

    [Perfectlander]
    The goal of a perfectlander is simply to have the stats to wear all of the items available. You would want at least 20 STR for the purse, 55 INT and 20 LUK for the Metal Wand, and enough DEX to 100% 1 shot depending on the weapon you're using. After these stats have been achieved you can pretty much do whatever you want. To continue the "perfect" build you can pump DEX to 100% 1 shot with any weapon, or you can pump LUK for more avoidability.

    Comment by CrimsonClaw: This build is generally not recommended for casual players, more for meme with the Metal Wand - most islanders won't train with the Metal Wand.


    [Magelander]
    With this build you're using Three Snails as your main way to attack and making use of the all job Metal Wand. With 55 INT and 20 LUK you can equip the Metal Wand and use it to throw snail shells. After you've achieved wand stats, you can add either MP or INT to increase you maximum MP. Note: You probably need a main islander or a bunch of friends / guildmates to fund the ammo - red snail shells.

    [Luklander]
    This build implies that you will be using the Mitten weapon. The mitten weapon throws arrows and stacks mostly with LUK for maximum damage. Luklander's have a very low range which can be seen as less than ideal when comparing it to the other builds. One of the benefits of being a Luklander is that you will have long ranged attacks, but keep in mind that you will not have Keen Eyes which does hinder the grind. If you decide to make a Luklander make sure to make use of att pots to achieve a usable range. Please note that to some extent the mitten also stacks with DEX & STR.

    Hey!

    I know so much about you due to my lurking ;)

    I want to welcome you to MapleLegends. Yes, we recently added the Islander ranking because we believe they are part of the nostalgic gameplay too. I have also seen your wishlist and suggestions over the time at other places and we think about it what we can do about them. Right now we are a bit busy with other updates, but I may soon enough bring up a lot of Islander stuff on our staff team.

    You're welcome regarding the ranking :)

    One custom thing we have already for Islanders is that they can buy pet food at the store, so they can use their pets.

    Since you're here might one of you be able to explain the existence of what looks like a Mark Of Beta on one islander in the rankings? How exactly did that event work? I'd like to record it in the event section.

    I'm here to explain it.

    When we were in our Open Beta period (Jan~March) every user that met the requirement (Click here) received a beta hat once we released (April 1st). This beta hat has 5 to all stats as clean stats and is untradable/cannot be transferred with Cash Shop Storage.

    I may start create an Islander too if enough will. The most motivation I need to make an Islander is people to talk to. The experience I have is a level 39 on 1x exp, but that server is no longer existing.
