    Hi ~

    So today is a very exciting update! First of all I've never gotten to this point before and still felt super motivated! Is it happening? No remakes? I have a good feeling!
    I got to lvl 50 pretty quickly but was completely broke (observe the 11k on my previous last SS)..... Gach wasn't giving me anything good either, read on and find out what happened!

    In game:
    - grinded at gs1 then later some at gs2, exp is about a level an hour which is pretty okay considering I have so much base int.
    - got a bunch of gach tickets:
    upload_2020-12-29_23-21-48.png

    upload_2020-12-29_23-22-15.png
    upload_2020-12-29_23-22-23.png

    So when I got to lvl 50 I really wanted a zakum helmet, but was still super broke (as in struggling to buy more than ~100 hp and mp pots with the mesos I made from grinding and repeat). So I decided to go and kill some nightghost/dark cloud fox mobs and try the exchange. However, I quickly discovered (after spending ~500k on some cheap dex cape/acc gloves) that I still really couldn't hit them that well (about 15% miss chance). So I decided to move on and go to the paper lantern ghost/dark cloud fox map. (the name of that mob sometimes is big cloud fox and sometimes dark cloud fox, depending on the source you check). So I went in with a small amount of ETC's (300 of the fox tails) and got:
    upload_2020-12-29_23-25-22.png
    The brown work gloves I was after all along! I sold them for ~20m (just to get a quick deal) and went on to the zakum prequests. Honestly, the zakum jump quest I have done once before and it didn't even take me that long. I just watched that one youtube tutorial that takes it like one baby step at a time and followed, fell a couple times but then remembered how to do the obstacles. Then I went on and smega'ed for a zhelm service and found people running right then and there! Yay!
    upload_2020-12-29_23-26-41.png

    In the end 6 helms dropped, I ended up being able to loot 3 times and the last/best (in terms of overall sum of stats and int) was this one:
    upload_2020-12-29_23-27-16.png

    Pretty nice! I was going for like 16/16 str/dex initially, but now went ahead and bought a yellow adventurer cape with +3 int for 100k to get to 20 int from items! I however keep forgetting to put it on when I level, I'll have to try to remember that :D.
    One of the things I'm most excited about is the INSANE amount of w.def/m.def (I had like 60 previously), which means mobs hit me much less = much less money on pots (about half of the damage without zhelm for certain mobs). Also the accuracy and avoid are nice!

    Afterwards I spent some on the remainder cash on a cheap branch nose and 10% face for avoid scroll and IT WORKED! For some reason I have super good luck when it comes to scrolling face accessories, especially with the first 10% working. I finished it with 70/60% scrolls (gosh those things are 3m each) and ended up with a pretty good tree branch nose, quite happy about it!
    upload_2020-12-29_23-30-29.png

    Then after that I could finally equip a lvl 50 knuckle, so I went to ludi and stalked people at master chronos to buy some. I ended up scrolling this one with 70/60%s:
    upload_2020-12-29_23-31-54.png

    Definitely a lot of very exciting progress!

    Final SS:
    upload_2020-12-29_23-32-16.png

    Next goals:
    - get to level 60
    - grind some christmas points for AP resets
    - make some money for a better glove and a deputy star

    Thats it for now! So many exciting things :DDD.
    See you on the next one, have a great day!

    Also, currently I have done 20 levels of mp washing. I ran out of NX / AP resets for now, hoping to gain some from the event. Not in that much of a hurry because I can do the rest of my mp washing from lvl 100~140 if I want to.

    Yooo nice work on the fury claw. Very smart of you to actively go to its drop area and buy off people grinding.

    Hi ~

    First off; I wish you all a very happy new year, I hope 2021 will be a great year for all of you!
    Secondly, I haven't played much. Between new years prep/being too hungover to play/setting up my new laptop (and spending a full day on trying to get MapleLegends to run on a new mac, which thankfully I was eventually able to do) I have made little progress, but thats okay :).

    In game:
    - gs2 grind, exp has been slowing down a little bit
    - got some gach tickets:

    IRL:

    Pretty proud to say I finally quit smoking (after being a regular smoker for like ~8 years). Currently still quite irritable though, lmao.

    See you on the next one! Have a great day ~

    Hi ~

    So I spent all that time grinding at GS2, some last night then some this morning. Pretty excited to move on to the next grinding spot as I am getting sick of staring at GS2 LOL. Won't be for a little bit though ~

    In game:
    - grinded a bunch at gs2, there were some priest mules present wrapper farming who wanted to duo with me so that was pretty good exp :)
    - got some gach tickets:
    upload_2021-1-3_22-25-36.png
    upload_2021-1-3_22-25-42.png

    Not the most exciting update for now. Trying to save up some christmas points for AP resets as I have to get back into mp washing again soon. I believe I currently have mp washed for 22 levels (with 5 ap/level).
    At least the progress has been getting more steady, as I have not remade this little boi yet and don't think I can be arsed to anymore at this point. Yay!

    Final SS:
    upload_2021-1-3_22-27-10.png

    Next goals:

    - get enough accuracy to move on to CDs/mannequins (is it worth going there before lvl 70? I saw people saying it was nice exp if u can 100% hit them)
    - do some monster book farming and get some christmas points doing that, aiming for lvl 2~3 ring soon!
    - get to lvl 70 C:


    See you on the next update, have a great day!

    Hi guys ~

    I ended up giving away my items to new players yesterday and saying goodbye to our previous fairy. The guy I gave my branch nose however seemed to know it was worth ~40m so maybe he wasn't that new after all...

    Anyway, our new little fairy is already on the path of the archer! (I forgot to screenshot at maple island, my bad)....
    Meet him ~

    I think we'll have a blast together :D

    Hi guys ~

    So I started off my little archer boii and spent lvl 10-23 just farming at HHG with all you guys' noobie accounts for the christmas points and doing some quests. Then I get my very first and only gachapon ticket on this character thus far, but don't really mind it. A bit later there is a GM event going on (I could never finish that one it was impossible) and I respawn in Ellinia right on top of gachapon afterwards. Thus I thought; oh wait I had that ticket left let me go hand it in.

    *drum roll*
    upload_2021-1-6_10-29-13.png

    ~~~~ yaaaaayyy ~~~~

    So the rest of yesterday was basically just spent wasting away the 115m I got from selling it!

    Gear upgrades:
    I'll just first insert the screenshots here then write down what happened below~
    upload_2021-1-6_10-31-34.png upload_2021-1-6_10-31-47.png upload_2021-1-6_10-31-55.png upload_2021-1-6_10-32-2.png upload_2021-1-6_10-32-15.png upload_2021-1-6_10-32-25.png upload_2021-1-6_10-32-31.png upload_2021-1-6_10-32-39.png

    WHEW ~ thats a whole lot, right?

    So I started off by just owling around a bit on my owl mule, checking out and writing down prices of different items. I quickly discovered the red emerald earrings which were underpriced at 2.5m, and bought them!
    Then I was looking to get a dex earring too and someone just so happened to smega the single earring and I bought those for 10m. Having the earrings out of the way, I proceeded to test my luck

    I was wanting to scroll my own dex bathrobe, after having owled the FM for ones being sold. I ended up buying anywhere between 80~100 (not really sure anymore) overall dex 10% scrolls (at around ~200k ea) and landed maybe.... 5 or 6? Then I bought some 30% scrolls for those robes and they all failed/boomed. I was pretty determined to not give up, but as my cash stack kept dwindling further and further eventually I caved and bought the bathrobe for 27m from someone.

    Then I went and 10%ed some cheap purple christmas socks, until one landed on a 2 dex clean sock! Having a 5 dex 6 slot sock, I was optimistic. Turns out, 60% scrolls don't really like me. Ohwell, still a pretty nice christmas sock!

    The red work gloves were bought for 8m and the wooden wand I scrolled myself. Both the wand and the maple bow were situations in which 60/70% scrolls gave me below average outcomes again, but oh well ~

    Finally as I was coming down to my last ~5m I went and scrolled a lvl 12 crossbow (because the scrolls are cheaper and I don't have mastery yet anyway), and what do you think? I super easily scrolled this crossbow with a 10%, 30% and 5 60% scrolls. I'm gonna be messaging Kimmy to remove the dummy scrolling doesn't exist MapleTip xD.

    Anyway, overall a REALLY good day for me and the new gear ain't looking to shabby after all!

    Final SS:
    upload_2021-1-6_10-41-1.png

    Oh yeah I got enough points for the hair/face coupons too!

    Thats it for now, have a great day!

    Hi ~

    So not much has happened, but I figured I'd write a small update. Been a bit busy with uni related stuff...

    In game:
    - grinded event points at HHG2 with some other peeps :)
    - had a really nice chat with a MM (shoutout to Appetite for being amazing) <3
    - did some more questing, about to start Ariant!
    - strangely enough no gach tickets today, but I'm not complaining after the last ticket I got :D
    - got a new look, I think I'm looking SUPER cute :3
    - scrolled a bow with some cheap scrolls from FM
    upload_2021-1-8_11-53-50.png
    My crossbow is still better but this one fires a bit quicker :)


    Final SS:
    upload_2021-1-8_11-54-5.png

    Next goals:

    - get to lvl 30
    - become either a BM or MM :)

    Have a great day <3

    Hi guys ~

    So we have one of these 2-days-in-1 situations going on. I actually had quite a hard time deciding between BM and MM and was considering that while grinding, in the end it distracted me from actually writing a progress update post! Here goes ~

    In game:
    - got a bunch of gach tickets
    upload_2021-1-10_23-18-31.png
    upload_2021-1-10_23-18-47.png

    - Landed the first 10% scroll on a rat mouth AGAIN, for some reason I'm incredibly lucky scrolling these
    upload_2021-1-10_23-20-38.png
    Will have to wait and save up some mesos in order to further 60% this gem <3
    EDIT: boomed it with a 70% after posting this, whoopsie :F

    - Scrolled a decent dex cape
    upload_2021-1-10_23-22-36.png

    - Bought a christmas muffler (mostly just for the int it gives, gave me the push to +20 int from equips when I level. The str and dex are pretty nice too C:
    upload_2021-1-10_23-23-9.png

    Next goals:
    - actually update the journal each day again
    - get to lvl 50
    - save up for a zhelm

    See you guys on the next one, have a great day!

    Hi guys

    So the craziest thing happened as I was playing my new noobie brawler, as with the previous runthrough of this journal I got a chaos scroll on my very first gach ticket:
    upload_2021-1-13_13-39-7.png
    Man the feeling of getting such a good gach is just awesome C:. This was actually crazy to me because the odds of this happening twice are just so small, I must have done something right to get this much love from the gach gods <3

    I spent all the time today just buying new gear for my newbie;

    In game:
    Bought a bunch of gear:
    upload_2021-1-13_13-39-53.png upload_2021-1-13_13-40-38.png upload_2021-1-13_13-40-43.png upload_2021-1-13_13-40-49.png upload_2021-1-13_13-40-58.png upload_2021-1-13_13-41-4.png upload_2021-1-13_13-41-9.png upload_2021-1-13_13-41-15.png
    So here goes, I first sold the chaos scroll for 115m, and then went on and bought the green christmas sock for about 14m. Then I needed some more stuff to get to +10 int from gear, so I bought the rudolphs horn for about 4m. I still needed some more of the 'essentials' and bought some scrolls for the gold surfboard which cost me very little because a bunch of kind HHG2 farmers were giving me their 40+ att surfboards for free, thanks again <3. The green mittens I bought for about 7.8m (gosh finding cheap gloves is such an owl intensive activity because you have to go through all the different kinds of work gloves, markers and mittens in order to find a cheap one). Afterwards I bought the warm muffler for about 4m and the maple storm finger for about 2m.
    Finally I finished off by buying the red emerald earrings for about 6m, which I believe was rather cheap as well.
    I then was looking for a good bathrobe, but couldn't find anything above 18 dex in the fm. As I had not given away the bathrobe from my previous runthrough yet (see a couple of posts up), I just bought that from 'myself' for 27m (the initial price I got the robe for) and gave away the mesos to newbies (this part you can't see, I couldn't trade over 1m at a time on my mule).

    I ended up blowing the rest of my mesos (whoopsie) on scrolling face accessories (rat mouth, sad mask) on which a couple 10s landed but I wanted to go and 30 it too and that was overly ambitious in retrospect. Ended up booming them all.

    Final SS:
    upload_2021-1-13_13-48-40.png

    Next goals:

    get to level 30 and become a brawler :3
    get to my base int goal of 180
    farm event points for the hair/eye bundle and some AP resets

    As always, I hope you all have a wonderful day <3
