Defeating Monsters in Maple Story
MS Monsters are the resident bad guys in just about every video game ever made. In Maple Story, monsters are what you’re sent to destroy on almost every quest. They’re also available for killing just for fun or to pick up that item you’ve been looking for. Since they are the main baddies in the game, there are a wide variety of monsters with different levels and skills. Nothing says a good time like beating down Griffey.
As you start out as a beginner Maple Story character, the monsters you have to fight are rather weak. When you level up and progress through the game, you’ll notice the types of monsters you fight are stronger with better skills than the lower level monsters. The worst skills they use are the ones you can’t counteract, like raising their own attack or defense. Some skills will have damaging effects to you and possibly prevent you from attacking. There are skills like stun and darkness that will give your character a hard time unless you know how to counter the effects.
Potions are made specifically for countering these monsters’ skills. Each potion will be labeled for its use. They can be found in shops and some Maple Story monsters will even drop them from time to time. If you don’t like using potions, the effects of the magic will wear off over time. You can then resume fighting with your weapons and any skills you have. Of course, it might be hard since they’re so cute.
Understanding MS Monsters
When it comes to playing Maple Story monsters, they are some of the most frustrating opponents, but most necessary things in the entire game. MS is a tough game to learn and according to some experts on multi-player gaming, it is the toughest game to really learn. If you are playing Maple Story, then you are probably going to go through some frustrations dealing with monsters. You need to understand what their purpose is in the game, though, if you are ever going to be successful.
Sure, MS monsters might be a very difficult thing to deal with, but you have to deal with them. Once you really understand their role, you won’t be nearly as frustrated as you are in the beginning. For the most part, MS monsters serve a really good purpose in the game. They give you the valuable experience that you will need in the later Maple Story levels. This means that you absolutely must learn to take them down when you first start playing the game. If you don’t, you will lack what it takes to make it through the levels.
In addition to that, you will find that the Maple Story monsters in the game are your best link to mesos. Without these valuable MS mesos, then you can forget about playing the game at a high level. Once you learn to deal with the Maple Story monsters in the best way possible, you will be able to collect mesos with more regularity and you will notice a huge difference in your game.

They do get a little tougher as you progress through the levels, but this is a good rule to follow.
The toughest Maple Story monsters are going to be found in the dungeons. Before you even head into one, you’ll need to make sure that your health and experience levels are way up and that you have the right weapons. You’ll also find some pretty tough monsters on Victoria Island and they will require a lot of skill to beat. Remember, whenever you kill an MS monster, they will leave some things behind for you. They range from mesos to actual Maple Story items and no matter what level you’re on, you’ll need to make sure that you pick these items up.
