MS Secrets: Be Prepared For The “Big Bang”

The Black Mage of the MapleStory is not defeated and he is not gone for good. He is merely preparing for his return to conquer the Maple World. The longer he is gone the more his anger and rage builds up,for he wants nothing more than to see the destruction of MapleStory.
The ancient prophecy warned that the day of his return is coming and many predict that day is soon.

The Black Mage had once ruled the Maple World, but his reign was one of cruelty and the Maple World fought back and he was vanquished in battle. In the years following that battle his minions have worked hard to bring about his return so he can once again help them rule.

MS monsters such as Pink Bean, Horntail, and the Dragon Riders terrorized the countryside, foretelling the coming of their dark master. Luckily the good people of MS such as the Explorers and Cygnus Knights stepped up and battled against the evil.

Unfortunately the Black Mage is not gone for good and upon his return there will be a darkness beyond what anyone can imagine. He has planned his revenge for not just the people that vanquished him but for the existence of the whole Maple World.
His return is near and rumor has it that that day will be called the Big Bang.

The Maple World will forever be changed. Monsters will change in power, magic powers will change, cities and towns will move, familiar landmarks will disappear, and new lands will arise.

Are you ready for these changes? Only the strong will thrive and it won’t be a good time to venture out alone so be sure you are surrounded by a supportive players. This support can be found at a Maple Story Forum where members gather to form pacts, and guilds and help each other. You can also find support in the form of MS secrets and tips which will help you prepare for what is about to come.

Getting The Most Out Of Your MapleStory Pet

Pets can bring you a lot of joy and companionship; however, they are also a lot of work. It’s no different in the Maple world. Having a MapleStory pet is a lot of responsibility. You first have to purchase your pets and then feed and talk to them to develop closeness with them. In return they will respond to your commands.

There are numerous different MS pets you can acquire:

  • Black Kitty – very basic pet
  • Blue Husky – do well in cold weather
  • White Bunny – some of the cheapest pets, they were first released during an Easter event
  • Dino Girl – aggressive and unpredictable pets
  • Robot – unpredictable pets that change shapes
  • Mini Yeti – some of the most expensive pets
  • Elephant – smart and loyal
  • Red Dragon – alert pet that can transform into a giant red serpent

This is just a small example of the many, many MapleStory pets that are available to choose from. Each is unique in its own way so it is important to do your research before acquiring a pet so you can get one that best fits your character’s lifestyle.

There is a lot to learn about your MS pets. Pet attributes, skills, and feeding your pet are just a few things you’ll have to do. To make owning a pet the best experience possible, use a MapleStory pet guide. These are wonderful resources to have that are filled with helpful MS tips from veteran pet owners.

It is predicted to be the biggest event in the history of MapleStory!

It will rock the Maple World to its foundations, worlds will collide, continents will shake, cats and dogs will live together in peace, the very fundamentals of reality of tremble, and your Maple world will be turned upside down!

It’s a… well, MapleStory update, the most important one yet in MS history.

This huge update is coming to Global MapleStory soon. At the moment the developers are not sure what to name it; in Korea they named it the Big Bang.

Some wait in anticipation for updates in hopes for smoother gameplay, improved graphics, new MS quests, modernized characters and items, and an overall better and enhanced gaming experience.

Others may dread updates since it can mean only one thing: their beloved MapleStory bot might not work anymore, their favorite cheat may be nerfed, or their preferred leveling guide may not work as well.

For those of you who are more concerned with having the best bot and latest guide than you are with the latest graphics or character updates, I suggest you get connected with a MS forum. Not just any forum though. The forum I recommend is a community of gamers brought to together by one common interest. In this case the common goal of this MapleStory forum is to find the best and most efficient ways of leveling in the least amount of time possible

Scamming in MapleStory

A MapleStory scam is basically tricking someone into giving you their money, items or other goods. Most MS scams will instantly be recognized by higher level players and will not work on them. The easiest scam victims are trusting, newbie players.

Example of a MS scam:
Player 1 approaches Player 2 and asks him if he wants to learn a MS glitch that will duplicate his item

Player 1 then gives him the directions:

  • Go into a trade and equip the item
  • Then click “Trade” but NOT the “OK” button so the verification screen pops up
  • Next type in the code: cltms67y
  • Then it’ll exit out of trade and you’ll have duplicative the items

Why this is a scam:
Player 2 was tricked into giving Player 1 his MS item.

How it works:
As soon as you click “Trade” do NOT press the letter “Y” because that is the same as pressing “Yes” or “OK”. It works because it makes the victim type the letter “Y” after they trade so the scammer can accept the item.

You may view scamming as a dishonest way of making money but even if you prefer not using MapleStory scams, it good to be aware of them so you don’t fall victim yourself

New MapleStory Epic Items

MapleStory will soon be featuring some changes in the epic weapon system

MapleStory Item Ranking
Items will be divided into ranks to help you determine common, less valuable items from rare, more valuable items. The items will have a colored border to define their rank

White border: Normal
Blue border: Rare
Purple border: Epic
Yellow border: Unique
Red border: Hidden potential (Items ranked rare or better)

Hidden potential items have to be identified via magnifying glass that can be obtained from merchants in major towns

MS Item Potential
Three hidden potential attributes are randomly assigned to rare or better items. A Potential Scroll is required to unlock the attributes. The scroll can be gained via monster drops or can be obtained by using the Miracle Cube Cash Shop item.

Maple Story Item Revamp Equipment Enhancement
Item revamps will be added to equipment once upgrade slots are all used up.

  1. Add an Equipment Enhancement Scroll or Advanced Equipment Enhancement Scroll to increase the item’s stats, if successfully used
  2. The scroll’s success rate will decrease as the number of enhancements increases
  3. If the enhancement fails, the Maple Story item will be destroyed

*The number of yellow stars above an MS item’s name shows the number of successful enhancements the item has gotten.

Having good MapleStory items opens up a whole new world of opportunities so it’s important to be equipped with nothing but the best. You can pick up a MapleStory guide to learn how to acquire the best of the items. Or if you’re a bit more daring you can utilize MS cheats for the quickest and most effective methods of gaining epic items.

MS Golden Temple Secrets Revealed

Like the pot of gold at the end of a rainbow, they say it’s out there. In a distant land there exists a temple made entirely of gold. If you step within the temple walls you find treasures of endless wealth for adventures of any MapleStory level.

Within the temple walls also lurks danger. What will you do if you come face to face with the treacherous Ravana? The Golden temple is full of both mystery and danger and MS secrets waiting to be discovered.

Getting to the Golden Temple
First things first, to find the Temple you have a MapleStory level 15 character

  • Speak to Cassandra than head over the Dimensional Mirror to find the MapleStory Golden Temple
  • Find Mr. Yoo and follow his instructions to receive a Golden Ticket that gives you access to the Monkey Temple and Goblin Cave
  • Mr. Yoo only hands out one ticket per day but you can buy a Premium Golden Ticket in the Cash Shop anytime you want to enter

MS Tip for more EXP
If you form a MS party with other players that have a ticket, you can enter the 30 minute mini dungeons that are filled with monsters that when killed give you double the amount of EXP

Facing the great Ravana
After defeating hordes of mad monkeys and goblins, and gathering requested Maple Story items inside the Goblin Cave, you’ll come face to face with the feared Ravana. The Ravana is not just some ordinary boss so if you do walk away with a defeat you get an amazing helmet with stats that are unparalleled in Maple Story!

Another Challenge
For an even bigger challenge, Level 70s or higher can enter the Mirror mode through a portal that’s located at the far right of the Golden Temple. There is a catch however, the levels are reversed in Mirror mode, surviving the first level will be the biggest challenge.

Remember you don’t have to face these challenges alone, you can always get the help of MapleStory guides to lead you through.
