MapleSEA You & I Patch, Previous Boss Hunting Week and Some Updates

Hello Friends New and Old,

Welcome Back to my Journal - sorry for the lack of updates lately, because there was not much upgrades done - and also I was busy doing some Boss Hunting in the Boss Hunting Event a couple of weeks back.

Talking about the Boss Hunting Event, it was quite disappointing for me. With all my previous upgrades, I was still not able to down Hard Magnus (solo and with a party). I've been watching YouTube videos and practicing, but the closest we could get to, was about 5% HP before Magnus started raining his "candies"..

This is what I've gotten from the event, and I'm not too sure if I want to do up the ring properly and pot it.


The only thing I would gain from this set (and the set effects) are additional boss% and ignore def%. +5% with these - it is a bit hard to justify the cubings..

Anyway, another part of the event was "playing Scissors Paper Stone with Zak" (The Great Pipsqueak Zakum Rock-Paper-Scissors). One of the main reward was the Eternal Flame of Rebirth. Previously, with normal flames, we could only flame some of our "Season 1 equipment", but with this Eternal Flame, it could be used on "Season 2 items", ie. our Tylents, CRA /  Fafnir Armours and Equipments, etc

Here are the results of on some recent upgrades of my items :

MapleSEA Lightning God Ring (LGR) and New Equipment Updates

Hello Everyone!

Here's another update for my NightLord in MapleSEA.

I've recubed most of my items to 21% LUK on the normal potential pot and at least +10 ATT on their Additional Bonus Potential.


The Rings :

MapleSEA Rings

Finally, the Lightning God Ring (LGR) arrived in MapleSEA - it was available from gacha, and I managed to get one for myself - replacing my lower stat Ring, the Darkness Ring 2.

This is supposedly one of the "Best Ring in MapleStory" at the moment - as we all know, there is no such thing as end game items in game - maybe "Best for the moment", but there will always be something better that would replace these :)

The LGR is really good, with added 16 WA and MA buff! Initially I did not really like the visual effects of it - its like a floating head following me whenever I go .. kinda spooky..  I'm slowly getting accustomed to it now.


Double Pendants :

MapleSEA MON Necks


For the time being I am wearing two Mark of Naricain (MON) Pendants. The additional Pendant slot is temporarily available by completing the Grand Athenaeum Quests, and could be further extended 3 times (7 Days each) - but it is quite difficult to get these 7 Days extension because we have to hunt some ETC items and the drop rate is really bad!

Wish we could get Permanent Slot Expansions like our friends in GMS (Global MapleStory) too :)

At the moment, I am not upgrading my Pendants yet because I am actually waiting for the Gollux Pendants to come to MapleSEA - not sure when are they coming though..



Root Abyss Armours :

MapleSEA Root Abyss Armours


I recubed these to have 21% LUK on the potential lines, but I have yet to re-scroll them (probably gonna Chaos the Top and Bottom again in the near future) and I've yet to stamp them to give me a 3rd Bonus Potential line too - really hope there's some hidden +10 or +11 ATT in one of them :)

Root Abyss Set, Set Effects, And The Giant Pink Bean Chair

Hello Friends,

Welcome back to my blog.

Last week in MapleSEA, the Root Abyss Armours were released in our Gachapon Machines for a week.


I tried to acquire one Thief set for myself (Armours only, the Fafnir weapons is not released yet), because I don't think I could down the Root Abyss Chaos mode Bosses myself, and I do not really want to join a squad and do these regularly - due to time needed, commitment, etc..

Actually, the Fafnir weapons were supposed to be given out to lucky individuals during Hot Time sometime back - but so far, there is no news that anybody have gotten it!!)

By the way, quite a number of players (including myself) keeps saying "Fafnir set", actually "Fafnir" is the weapon, the set is called "Root Abyss set", not Fafnir set - but I guess it doesn't really matter.. a Rose by any other name is still a Rose ("A rose by any other name would smell as sweet." - William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet)


On the first few days, I tried my luck at the Gachapon machines in Henesys - the supposedly Best Place To Gacha - but I got nothing :(

There were quite a few system mega to congratulate players who have gotten these, and so I thought,  instead of fighting with so many others for a chance to obtain one from Henesys, maybe I should try other towns.

My Stats And Equipment Update

Hello Friends,

Ok, here's the current EQ I'm using as of 2nd August 2014.

The Rings :



Here are the 4 rings I'm currently using (we have 2 hands, 10 fingers, not sure why we can only wear 4 rings at a time..)

I've added at least a +10 ATT to all of them on the Bonus Potential line, but special mention goes to this lucky Darkness Ring 3 (DR3), with a +20 ATT on it!

All of them have attained the Epic ranking on the Bonus Potential, but only the Meister Signet had this attack stats on the first line, ie. ATT +11, the others were on the second or third, thus 1 ATT lesser. I did not recube these to +11, but maybe someday I would (not on the DR3 ring though) - when they bring back those Master Additional Potential Cubes again.

If I run out of things to upgrade in the future, I might use a Innocent scroll to reset the Meister Signet and re-Chaos it.


Helm, Top and Bottom :



These 3 items would probably be replaced in the near future when the Root Abyss equipment drops are more common - for the Root Abyss set effect.

Similarly I added +ATT on the Bonus Potential lines. I did however flamed them to get at least a decent amount of additional LUK on them. The Red Osfa Pants was reflamed to add some +ATT on its base stats too, but just +3ATT, not much..


Tylent Equipments - Tylent Lycaon Belt, Cloak and Boots :
