  Aren't DKs favored for their Hyper Body and shit?

  
  
  Yes, but in terms of damage output, DKs aren't really that great, is what they're talking about.

  What happens if you use a cube on an item with no potential? Does it gain potential? Or the only way to get potential is by those scrolls?
  
  The difference between "haves" and "haves-nots" is so enormous in this game. It is kind of sad to see another AB the same level dealing like 2m damage while I only do like 300k-500k

  Ikr? How do people even get the billions of mesos needed to buy any of those Empress equips and whatnot that you pretty much need to be "good" anymore? At least the free tempest gear for Kaiser and Angelic Buster lets us poor players not be completely useless.

  Don't forget the 120 Angel Buster set that you get from leveling that Eskalade gives ya :lol:
  
  God I love that set. It's pretty, it's free, and I think it's better than the Tempest set that you buy with tempest coins?

  Nope, I found it. http://www.perioncorner.com/?p=browse&c=sound#Bgm28.img
  
  It's apparently called: thefinalWar.mp3
  
  Doesn't look like it's easy to rip the mp3 from that site though so it's something I'll look into later
  
  UPDATE: Well I lied. I'm pro at examining websites and ripping source code to find where the true stuff is hidden:

  Uh, where on the site are all the bgms in the game?

  It's all there, it's just not an easy to get format. You have to browse through all the BGM's in the Sound Pack file and then you have to view the source to find the mp3 links. Not the most efficient way to do it, but it looks like that's the only way to do it on the site. I suppose, when I get bored I can make a scraper to scrape them from the site or something. It'll be a pain to write but I think it would be doable.
  
  But, on the flip side, I think you can just use the link I posted and just change the BGM part to which section you are looking in and change the mp3 file name to w/e the name of the file is.

  Also, for magnus, the hardmode version gets you banned if you beat it, not anymore since it is now possible to since AB was released. Pre AB, if you killed it, you got banned, it was nexon's ban trap.

  
  
  Iv been hearing from people that we got post unlimited magnus from the angelic buster patch.
  Seeing how we have a terra bad version of angelic i don't see any legit hard mode magnus kills happening any time soon. So wouldn't it be safe to assume that hard mode kills still ban? :sigh:

  LOLWHAT?!
  
  Nexon: Nobody can solo Magnus Hardmode right now! He's much to hard, only a hacker can beat him! I know! Let's autoban anyone who beats him in Hardmode, no matter how legit they are! That'll teach em!

  ... Or just click on the song after the pop up shows and it will automatically download...
  The site is designed as an MP3 player as well, they were very helpful, also use maple wiki if you want the names of the song to the area it is played in, also maplewiki has a download for their music too, HOWEVER it is in OGG
  
  
  Also, i was serious about nexon and hm magnus. The very best classes together in a party could not beat him because they cant go past the damage cap before they die and get kicked out.
  Nexon knew that NOONE LEGIT COULD BEAT HIM.
  So they baited them with an event to lure them.
  Smashing Magnus
  
  December 17 to January 17
  
  The first team to clear Hard Mode Magnus during the event period in each world will be the winner.
  Requirement: Level 100 or above.
  Players must be in a party, with a maximum of 6 players. It is highly recommended that all players are at least Level 190. Be ready for a fight!
  Winners will receive a special title called One who Spearheaded Magnus’ Defeat: STR/DEX/LUK/INT +10; ATT/M.ATT +10; Damage to Bosses +10%
  
  
  And it worked. They all got banned.
  Before marvel machine came out, they deleted all tyrant equips too. Because they could not exist either, nexon is VERY devious when it comes to deleting duped equips, sometimes they do it instantly, sometimes a year later after you spend 200 bucks on it.
  
  
  This is coming from someone who has had intricate knowledge of this game for 5 years, so i know this game more than i know mabi for the most part, how ironic.
  
  
  
  Also, protips for more damage, link skills, empress' blessing for a 120 cygnus. (Bonus points if you do cygnus arkarium as well to max it)
  Triple S decks.
  Every little bit counts.

  Nexon is one sneaky bastard and my Chrome won't auto download the mp3. It just opens it up in a player, don't know why. But I went ahead and manually downloaded all the files one by one. It was tedious but I managed.
  
  People say Nexon is useless and doesn't do jack shit, this shows that they are quite malicious when they do take action.

  well I grind my way to level 105. Now I have no idea what to do. Is it a good time to try doing zakum? It's kinda annoying I need mastery book to unlock final blow.
• Sapphireoath wrote on 2013-01-23 01:35
  Aliens till 110, then switch to Lion Heart Castle till 160. Well that's what I see recommended a lot. @108 Luminous currently, been leveling mainly at Aliens since lvl 90, with any story/crusade quests I got along the way. Haven't played for a few days though :P
• TLCBonaparte wrote on 2013-01-23 02:06
  yeah but grinding is so boring :( I tried to get to zakun cept werewolves killed me.

  Never did follow that suggestion as the only way to get good exp at Lion Heart Castle is to pay for some script kiddie to use their auto skill spannin script or w/e they use. Unless I'm missing something about that stupid god awful place.
  
  What I usually do is the long haul of legit PQ's, Temple of Time, Pirates, Ghost Pirates, etc. Places that aren't filled with script kiddies or tons of people who will be complete jerks and steal my map *cough* Scarecrows *cough*
  
  Got my Kaiser to Level 56. It's slighly slow going as I only have like 3 hours to put into it until the Weekend. Want to get him to level 120 while the event is going to get his Level 120 Equipment Set

  The way LHC works is you need a full party to get the most out of the party EXP. It's also best to have people similar level to you. I've managed to get three characters past 140 with two of them at 163 currently.
  
  And you stay there till 165. Then you go to stronghold till 200.
  
  I'm always doing bossing inbetween Grinding so I don't go insane.
