Section A [Beginner]


1.1. Why be a Magician
There are 4 Jobs for you to choose. Warrior, Magician, Bowman and Thief. I
love Magician and therefore, I recommend it. Although its slow to level
during 5 to 13, you will enjoy in the later part. The good thing is that you
can do the job advancement at level 8. Magicians have Quite low HP but High
MP. But I still recommend Magician.


1.2. Stats required
You will need 4str, 4dex, Xint, Xluk.
Str : Magician dont need it because you will be counting on your INT to
attack others.
Dex : Magician dont need it because you will be depending Accuracy on
INT/Luk.
Int : Magician need it because the higher the Int, the higher your attack
will be.
Luk : Magician need only some of this because of equipping Weapons and
Armours. It increases Avoidability. This could help in Accuracy for Magician
too. [Not so sure. Still finding] Keep Luck above 3 your level. [e.g. Level
10 should have 13luck in order to equip weapons and armours]

So when you are level 8, your stats should have:
Str : 4
Dex : 4
Int : 41
Luk : 11

After level 8, you will put 4 AP to Int and 1 AP to Luk for every level you
get. Keep this order for the whole life of the magician.


1.3. Training Tips and Spots
Train ONLY on Green, Blue Snails[Snail Hunting Ground II(Recommended) and
Shrooms. [Get 10 orange mushroom tops and 30 blue snail shells to complete a
quest in South Perry in order to get either a Fruit Knife[Better] or a
Razor. It¡¯s random. Get the Orange mushroom tops at the portal right of
Amherst. [Middle Top, where the Orange mushrooms have no way of attacking
you unless you jump over.]
Train Green Snails, Blue Snails, Shrooms at Split Road. Its good to train
there because you will be revived just at the right portal[South Perry] and
its fast to get back to train.


1.4. A new world
Get as much as mesos as you can. Pay 150mesos through Shanks[Only when you
are level 8] and you will get to Victoria Island. If you managed to get
2,000 mesos and above, buy a Stolen Fence in Lith Harbor Defense Shop. DO
NOT buy any weapons. Talk to Phil in the Ticket Booth around the place you
landed from Maple Island, go to Ellinia by paying him 120mesos. Note :
Beginners gets 90% discount of traveling through Taxi and Phil.


1.5. 1st Job Advancement [Magician]
Go to the TOP of Ellinia and enter the house. Talk to Grendel the Very Old
and ask for a Job Advancement to officially become a Magician. Note : Your
MP has increased quite a bit as Magician depends on MP to live on.
Congratulations, you have become a Magician. It¡¯s a little bit though to
level up but you have to Endure!

Go to Grendel the Really Old [Ellinia Top house] and do what he asks you to.
He will tell you to go to an Instructor located at the 3rd portal towards
Perion from Ellinia, TOP ALL the way. Talk to him and you will be teleported
to a tree dungeon with Curse Eyes and Horned Mushrooms. They¡¯re much
stronger then normal ones. They do NOT give EXP and Mesos. ONLY Dark
Marbles. You need to collect 30 of them and bring them back to the
Instructor. Go back to Grendel the Really Old and you¡¯ll be able to choose
your 2nd Job Advancement. Fire/Poison Wizard is the One.

In the start, the Fire Arrow is not strong enough. Try using Magic Claw
until your Fire Arrow overpowers your Magic Claw. Then, use Fire Arrow to
fight.

3.3. Training Tips and Spots
Note : The training grounds I mentioned is for the Skill Tree I used


Level 31 to 34 : Victoria Dungeon : Ant Tunnel 1 [Undead Mushroom]
Level 35 to 36 : Orbis : Orbis Tower 13th Floor [Ice Sentinel]
Level 37 to 43 : Orbis : Orbis Tower 1st Floor [Jr.Pepe] - TOP part of the
Map
Level 44 to 46 : Orbis : Garden of Green I [Jr.Grupin]
Level 47 to 50 : Orbis : Orbis Tower 1st Floor [Jr.pepe]
Level 50 to ?? : El Nath : Watch Out for Icy Path I [Jr.Yeti]



?? means I am not sure. I am not that high level. After level 50 is my
estimation. I have not test it. Do it at your own risk.


Reasons for Hunting
Undead Mushroom : 1hit KO, may drop Chaos Robe
Ice Sentinel : 2-3 hit KO - Get a good scroll and you'll strike rich, Fire
Arrow is prefered, save mp.
Jr.Grupin : 1hit KO - Only successfully 1hit ko of all hits on lvl44
Jr.Pepe[1st] : 2-4 hit KO = Kill them at the Top part of the map to avoid
massive damage
Note: Its at the top part of the map, not below. and your fire arrow is only
lvl15, not 30. even if its maxed[30] on lvl40, it still cant kill Jr.Pepe in
1hit.
Jr.Pepe[2nd] : 1hit KO
Jr.Yeti : 2hit KO - Kill them only on lvl50 and above as you'll 'miss' them
alot.

Why not?:
Crocos - Low spawn, high damage received.
Pepe - High hp, waste of mp.
White Pang - Its after Jr.Yeti, when to fight is not confirmed.
Grupin - Their damage is too high for you too take, again waste of mp. When
to fight is not confirmed.
Cold Eye - Too little Mesos, bad map. - as in, the landform isnt that great.


well, its your choice on where you want to fight anyway.




3.4. 3rd Job Advancement [Fire/Poison Mage]

What I know from this is you will do the Job Advancement level at level 70
and you will have to fight your own mentor. [e.g. Magician has to fight
Grendel the Really Old] You will have to defeat them within the time limit :
20minutes.
Note : Every Mentor possesses different skills

Talk to Robeira in El Nath located slightly Middle, Top right House. Fly
back to Victoria and talk to Grendel the Really Old [Ellinia Top house].
He'll tell you to go to the Door of Dimension.

The Door of Dimension is located at Forest of Evil 2 - Where MAlady hangs
around.

How to go : Forest of Wisdom[Top Left Portal(Tree Dungeon)], you'll be in
Monkey Forest, Go to Top Right Tree and press UP, you'll be in Monkey Forest
2. Go to the Top Right Tree again and press UP and you'll be in Forest of
Evil 1. Go Top Right Tree again and press UP and you'll reach Forest of Evil
2. The Door of Dimension is located at Top Right of the Map. Good Luck.

================================================== ==============================


Section E [Others]

5.1. Playing Tips
1) Play Smart
2) Never do Kill Stealing. It means that when someone attacks a creature and
you kill it, its called Kill Steal. If you did not Kill Steal when someone
shouted ks, argue back. You will surely win. Tell the person what¡¯s really
KS. [I did this quite a few times]
3) Don¡¯t Beg! Beggars S**kS! Dont you have Dignity?
4) Don¡¯t use Hacks. Hacking/Botting can get you banned and you may just
lose the chance of playing Maplestory.
5) Kindly avoid Scamming others. How would you feel if you got scammed and
lost everything?
