Maplestory overview:
THE CHARACTERS:
MAPLESTORY exists in worlds or servers. Players can generate numerous characters in an individual world, though the characters in dissimilar worlds can not relate. The videogame’s worlds are divided into several channels allowing the players to switch between the worlds with easy access. The ability to changed or switch between the worlds and characters was added to the videogame in December 2007. Still, the option was later removed from the game in May 2012 because it caused a negative impact on the game’s character’s gameplay. When making a new character, there are six subdivisions of lessons available for now, with two other outlets with one class each. Explorers, Cygnus Knights, Heroes, Resistance, Nova, and Sengoku. Beast Tamer and Child of God have one class in together divisions. Some classes are right now not available in other regions, but we hope it is available soon.
Explorer characters start on the island or map of maple and begin as a Beginner class, whereas Cygnus Knight characters/players begin as Noblesse class and start their voyage on Ereve. The Hero classes are characters with background layers related to the game’s enemy, the Black Mage.
So what do characters do? Here’s a summary about the six heroes,
Aran has the Combo System, a special piece to the class, allowing them to produce multiple shots by hitting monsters, giving them enthusiastic energy, and doing combo-overwhelming skills. Evan is similar to Magicians, but he uses a dragon that fights together with them. Mercedes. The third hero. is an elven archer who uses Dual Bowguns to fight off the monsters. Phantom is a Thief character with the capability to copy skills from Adventurer characters. Luminous is a magician of light who can also do dark magic, engaged from the Black Mage. The shade is the sixth and disremembered hero, whose presence was wipe out during the Black Mage’s sealing. They use spirits to support them in battle.
Overall, it’s a cool game to play as you can never get bored due to the many different and exciting characters. The quests, trading in-game, missions, battles, adventures, and more than you can imagine.
