I didn't have anything else to do, so I decided to get things at the old maple store with coins.
I can't do the stupid jump quests, so I did the "collect X amount of etcs and get coins" quest, so it takes me a little longer to get coins than the JQ does.
Question is, do I go after the gimmicky items (frozen tuna, fishing pole, frying pan)? I've also wanted to get maple throwing stars just to complete my old maple item collection (the only one I didn't have from that anniversary), but those costs like all my coins.
So fishing pole/tuna or the throwing stars?

I'm personally just getting a tuna. Best item.

Fishing rods are one of the rarest items in there, iirc.

What's the point of having the fishing rod? I really don't know what they're for.

The item that most people are going for is the fishing pole. Since you're in Scania, the fishing pole's are about 20-30 mil average. I saw a few the other day but I rarely check FM so maybe they're cheaper now. I'm sure there's a ton floating around. So if you want more than one thing, maybe buy the pole with meso and use the coins on something else.

Coins took me 2 hours for the 22 I needed(from 0), from farming Kargo eyes and maci horns. I grabbed a heart wand after a white male bandana(to match my F/P's nx). Since the last Maya quest is farm-able, I say get the ones you actually want first.

Farming maci horns? Really? They have a 30 second spawn just for 2 of them...
Or are you going into the present Maple to farm. I haven't tried that.

Of course you farm in present Maple. Fill up your inventory and then go to the Past Maya and turn the quest in as many times as you can.

Late, but the 1500 Maple Flag (the one that's white with red leaf) is quite fun to have as well. It's huge and showy when you slap other players with it, falls under your IGN when standing and covers it up when you're in a store, and borks up when you equip a shield and walk because of bad layering. Untradeable and 25 coins though. Pretty fun to have around, more so than a fishing rod + tuna IMO.
Can check it out in B&story, under common 1h-swords.

I would get one of the danas because those are very hard to come across normally, but then again so is everything else. The danas are cool but I agree with Onion Knight's post.
