MapleSEA 3rd Anniversary Quests Update

Autor duststar

Some updates on the Anniversary Quests. Mainly look out for “Maple Administrator” and “Cassandra” NPCs located at all towns.

“Maple Administrator” NPC allows you to exchange for 3rd Anniversary’s Maple weapons using previous anniversary’s Maple weapons (lvl 35 and 43) and certain numbers of maple leaf (1000 to 1500). You may also get your Maple hat, 3rd anniversary scrolls, and activate the Maple earring Quest here. The maple leaf drop rate is pretty high. My advice for you is to hunt monster that you can one-hit-ko (OHKO) with, if you are just aiming to hunt for a lot of maple leaf. The maple leaf free market (FM) price, starts from 30k per leaf on Thursday night, to 20k per leaf on Friday morning, and now to 10k per leaf on Friday night. Defintely, it’s going to drop further more, and more and more maplers begins to sell the maple leaf, there will be a surge in supply compared to the demand slow down. On the other hand, prices for old Maple weapons have doubled (3 to 10mil depending on weapon category, with claw and staff/wand being the most expensive so far). Therefore, if you are really no urgent to upgrade/get/own the new Maple weapons, it is better to save your mesoes and WAIT!

“Cassandra” NPC provides the “Evil Jar Quest”, “Fortune Telling Quest”, “Everyday Quest”, and “Anniversary Quizes”. It is recommended to do the “Anniversary Quizes” as it is a good means to get free EXP and free “Monster Crystals”. “Fortune Telling Quest” gives 2x drop rate for 2 hours upon activation, and ”Everyday Quest” gives 10% bonus EXP for choice of monster, also lasts 2 hours upon activation, and both are repeatable on a daily basis. It is advisable not to do the “Evil Jar Quest” now, as the quest is buggy where you hit the ”Evil Jar 3″ portion. Your maple client will behave abnormally (cannot change channel, enter portal etc), and might crashed (MS Visual C++ error, just blank black screen). Let’s just wait for a patch to resolve these bugs. 

Also, somehow I felt as if the Maple weapons’ drop rate are pretty low. After hunting for 2 hrs, I don’t get any Maple weapons except Maple leafs and jar pieces. Zzz!

Last but not least, hold your horses, don’t missed out Saturday 2000 hrs to 2200 hrs 2x EXP event at all worlds, and coming monday’s 2x EXP event from 1000 hrs to 2200 hrs 2x EXP events. The “Everyday Quest” event 10% bonus EXP will stack! That means if you play during a 2X EXP event, equipped with a 2x EXP card (cash item), and with the “Everyday Quest” event, you are easily getting 4.4x EXP in total, exlcuding other party bonuses, and holy symbol add-ons!

Good night, and have fun mapling!
