So how do I get rid of this quest and whats the next step??? Or is it glitched.

  New Warlock Job (Fan Made)
Posted by: JezzaRules - 2008-07-21, 04:07 AM - Forum: MapleAdditions - Replies (14)

Ok I was bored and I decided to write up a new class purely coz I simply had nothing else better to do. I also saw a thread earlier claiming if there would be any jobs after pirates so I should state my ideas here.
Yes I know some of these names aren't good and some are a bit too much copied from WoW but I'll try change the names if I could.

About Warlocks
Warlock Ability Requirements: Level 8, 20 Int
Warlocks are a class similar to mages in most ways except for the fact they use dark magic, warlocks are pretty much the only class that is capable of dealing dark elemental damage. The warlocks have two different 2nd Jobs, necromancers and dark wizards. The Necromancer path relies on summoning skills whilst dark wizard is simply more offensive.

Job Branch
Acolyte
Necromancer
:
Dark Wizard
Demontologist
:
Cultist
Dark Summoner
:
Sorcerer

Job Advancement
To advance 1st Job as a Warlock, you must talk to a dark wizard called Hines (mentioned in Rowen and the Cursed Dolls Quest) in a new map within Ellinia. The warlock expansion includes five new maps that leads from “The tree that grew III in Ellinia” to “Hunting ground in deep forest II” in sleepywood. Two screens from “The tree that grew III” will lead you to a minitown where a level 8 can advance as a Warlock.

Acolyte Skills
Improved MP Recovery

Improved Max MP

Magic Guard

Demons Will:
Increases the characters weapon and magic attack for a short amount of time: Requires 5 on Magic Guard
 Spoiler

Shadow Bolt:
Fires a bolt of Nether energy towards the enemy, same stats as Energy Bolt.

Nether Pulse:
Fires a small ray of Nether Energy hitting up to 6 monsters at once. Requires 1 on shadow bolt.
 Spoiler

2nd Job Advancement
When you reach level 30, talk to Hines again and he’ll send you to a map near sleepywood where the 2nd job instructor will take you to a hidden map in Sleepywood full of Zombie Lupins and Curse Eyes. Like the other 2nd job advancements, 30 dark marbles must be collected in order to receive the proof of the Hero for Job Advancement.

Necromancer Skills
Necromancers are a branch of the Warlock class in which their offensive abilities are limited but their ability to summon makes up for it. Necromacers also use the least MP out of all the jobs thanks to some of their skills including the 2nd Job skill.

MP Eater

(eg. When this skill is maxed, Magic Claw will use 16MP instead of the usual 20MP)

3rd Job Advancement
When you reach level 70, talk to Shammos whom is revealed that he is one of the 3rd Job instructors. He requires the Necklace of Strength whom you must retrieve from Hines who sends you off to a Door of Dimension in one of the new maps. Fight Hines Clone and then return to him to receive the Necklace of Strength. Return to Shammos and he’ll ask you for a necklace of Wisdom. Like the other 3rd job advancements, answer the questions from the Wisdom Stone and then return to Shammos with the necklace of Wisdom. He’ll advance you to a Demontologist or a Cultist.

  What's next in jobs?
Posted by: Kabanaw - 2008-07-21, 01:32 AM - Forum: Maplestory Discussion - Replies (67)

Well, I was thinking, after pirates, will there be any other jobs added on? I was thinking that they could add another subclass onto each of the classes.


Do you think they will do more with jobs, and if so what do you think/wish it will be?

  False Dichotomies: The American Oligarchy Complex
Posted by: Schrodinger - 2008-07-20, 11:56 PM - Forum: Rubik's Cube - Replies (11)

[SIZE="2"]-Originally posted on FlowsionMS by me.-[/SIZE]

[SIZE="3"]I largely apologize for my inadequacy in substantiating my view on the political candidates and the issues involved. And I also apologize if the points I'm making have already been made. But I am largely curious as to why many of you are stuck discussing McCain and Obama?

Personally, I'm vacillating in my decision to either choose Bob Barr of the Libertarian Party who has a previous history of being a former congressman and also a U.S. attorney for Georgia or Jesse Johnson who is the candidate for the Green Party. My personal indecisiveness in this issue is because I like both candidates after watching them and listening to their views. I also like both parties and the inherent concept both strive to accomplish.

Our first President George Washington warned our country of developing a bipartisan political system due to the cogs and corruption that will ensue. His prediction has substantial application in light of modern American politics. I'm so disillusioned by mainstream politics being corrupted by pork-barrel legislation, gerrmandering, election lawsuits [Bush vs. Gore], fillibusters, soft cash, slander, ect. That I cannot trust either the Democratic Party or the Republican Party. But it is not for these reasons alone that I defect from main stream political voting.

When candidate Barack Obama served on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee early in 2007, the senator deferred from issuing policy regarding missile defense, counterterrosim, and concern over the waning commitment of European countries to NATO. I do not approve of candidate John McCain either. At first I believed he was a man who wanted to withdraw and deferred from the Republican party. But on closer inspection, he appears to be a man who also walks the same line as the Republican party in terms of policy and treatment of Iraq.

I apologize. These men might make a difference to our country. But I think that it is an extremely small possibility since they are bogged down by bipartisan politics. They have played all the games, won the support of their party, and will continue to balance the line between pleasing their party and pleasing the people.

Our country's politics has no longer become about the people but more about keeping power hungry mongrels who have already assumed power to keep them in power. Examining how much is spent on advertisements and making the American people BELIEVE that their only choice is to vote Republican or Democrat, it apparently pays off. We have had a long history of corruption, debt, and recession because we allowed this bipartisan system to grip a hold of our nation. However, instead of seeking reform, a majority of us realize that voting for other parties will probably not matter and defect to one of the two parties. This is no longer about the right of the people, but has become a game for the elite.

I highly doubt McCain or Obama can cause reform. They might cause ripples in the waters but I'm looking for a candidate who can cause torrents, floods, and who can change the dynamic of the jagged path we are walking as a country. Look at the horrid debt we have accumulated. The sad part is, we have become used to this atrocity. We allows Presidents and Congress to raise the National Debt. We allow our country to go into recession. And we continue the process by employing parties who have been in power to keep their power and to continue this terrible cycle every single time.

[Image: Seriosness.jpg]
http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q45/P...bt_log.png

We need a significant change to change the mentality we have adopted as Americans. We have to make our Presidents assume more responsibility. We have to make our leaders admit the truth. To come out and say, "We fucked up. Let's leave. We're only adding more fuel to the fire."

We're not super hero martyrs. We're not perfect. We're a fucked up country. And we love our country for it's imperfections. But we have no right to force Iraq to become our form of ideal-democracy when our country is not run as an ideal-democracy. When we have economic problems on are own hands why should we recommend another country to follow our model? This is not democracy. This is political-strategem. Setting Iraq up to be a political-counterforce to the other Middle Eastern states as a possible origin of influence is not right. The Iraqi people deserve to pick their own government, deserve to have their own freedom, and deserve their own form of democracy regardless of what we as Americans think is the right thing to do.

We need a leader who has not been tainted by the bipartisan political process of lies and decent. Of pure self-preserving bullshit of helping the politician over the people. I believe in my right to vote in a democratic nation, not an oligarhic nation run by two super-power parties.

I believe that the Libertarian Party and the Green Party are moving in the right direction. They won't win this election nor may they ever win in the history of American politics. But one cannot deny one's right to have hope in a government that is truly run by the people and not by a community fooled by false dichotomies established by the bipartisan political process.

I'm sorry if I seem condescending and I know I am down right rude. But I thank you if you read all that and still respond politely. I will read your posts. And I do understand that my points have flaws. But these are my views as an American and what I feel should be the American right to democracy.[/SIZE]

  Er.....what the hell? O.o"
Posted by: WillDaSnail - 2008-07-20, 11:27 PM - Forum: Maplestory Discussion - Replies (22)

Hey guys:

Er........haven't logged on for a week now. But when I checked my own rankings @ Mapleglobal's website for the bloody hell of it, I noticed that my Dark Lorin were gone and replaced what it looks like a work glove (but my other equips were....intact). And I didn't remember signing off wearing a WG....

Take a look at my avatar and my sig (if you wish, check me up @ the live rankings on the website). Now I really wonder if the hacker (assuming) simply took my glove in a hurry and didn't bother to spend some time to kick the hell outta me (if this is the case).

P.S. Dark Lorin's scrolled, 8 INT 3 matk 2 slots left. Not a big deal for me though, I can get a replacement glove - but losing a few matk points in the process.

So any of you people here in SP play the IJJI version of Gunbound?

Feel free to add me if you wish - WillDaSnail. I'll accept your buddy invitation the next time I log on and get the request.

For me: I log on GB at random times at random days, so its pretty much hard to find me. However, I get together with my RL friends Friday nights (PST) and have an unofficial scrimming session with other random people. We have our fair share of pwning others and getting owned by others, so no fear ;D.

So if you want to play against me just for the hell of it, just simply post here. ;D

Okay So I thoght i'd be nice to see who here is gonna be one of the ..sort of hmm.. I'm not really sure how to explain it but I think I can get the idea across Eek so ya erm...like who here is planning on being one of the MAJOR big time all time pirate peeps , ya know not the no.1 ranked thats reserved for people who have..."alot of free time" ( trying not to be rude to those who wanna get to no.1 ) I'd personaly pull my hair out before getting there

anyways its sort of the peeps who have been ( me included ) looking at pirates since day 1, makin skill builds,ap builds,planning WAY ahead
have been gathering funds for months and well yeah .. gonna be sort of the know it alls on pirates

I used the term "pioneers" because Its like ... ya know going into unknown territory and fighting your way up to clear the path for everyone else

I personaly See pirates as somthin special for me because
I've played them and (infighters..yes i know gunslingers are there too I just like infighters ) they fit me like a glove

2.Its a chance for me to get back up their with the rest ( every time I got really HIGH up somthin screwed me over X_x ...got to be richest in broa for 2 weeks then I got hacked )..long storys anyways none of that matters

3.I wanna help people in this forum and in MS to try as much as I can to Keep the pirate name as far away from the Sin Rep as possible

and on another note I'm not some attention whore or anything I just wanna start being active alot on the forum and I really DO wanna help peeps ..
NOT gonna start showing off equips and things like that.. Anyways
What do you guys think? I planed on makin a Pirate Damage range thread durring the actual release patch and just hmm..Idk..I hope you can get the idea here

I'll edit this post slowly ..I usualy understand If peeps got the message across by their responces so I can change it Till its more..logical Excellent

so Ya Who here is gonna be a Pirate Pioneer!
( and Explain what it Is you've done to prepare and/or since when did you get into the pirate mood )

EDIT !

Loose Wrote:Well, I help a lot of people with Bandits. I get PMed quite a lot at BasilMarket by people asking me where to train a Bandit, Chief Bandit skills, buying stuff, etc.

It'll probably be the same for me with the Pirate class. I haven't played a Pirate yet, but I'm guessing that playing a Chief Bandit will help me out (a lot of attacks and short attacking range).

Also, isn't everyone that makes a Pirate the day they come out a pioneer? I think the word you're looking for is expert, not pioneer.

hmm yes Expert seems to fit MUCH better so ermm Expert peeps o.o
and ermm I think i'm as close ranged as it gets
my main high lvls are a CB and a DK in global and 1 slot for my beginner/infighter


EDIT!

Okay so i've removed anything mentioning my bucc in KMS due to people calling me a fake or w.e

I WILL post pics and proof of the char later but for now I won't..you can all take a SS of this and use it against me if I don't post a pic in around 2 months or so
but for now i can't for some personal reasons and I hope i'm not comming off as unfriendly/a jerk/any of those kinda things

I just wanna help out here and I mean everything i write in a light mood , I don't wanna make enemies here..I got RL for that >_>

well..thats a different story
I enjoy being upclose and personal
and hopefully one dai when theres a bunch of threads askin about pirates and stuff, peeps just mention me as the resident expert *dreamy eyes*

I know almost all their is to know , OTHER then math related since I suck at math xD
