Maplestory Tips

Character traits would be another awesome chapter for this guide: 
- Ambition increases your PDR, Battle Mode attack (for PvP) and decreases exp loss when you die. Increase by killing bosses.
- Empathy increases your MP and quest exp. Increase by herbing.
- Insight increases accuracy (useless after big bang?), avoidability and lets you identify items without magnifying glasses. Increase by mining and using magnifying glasses.
- Willpower increases HP, defence, magic defence and status resistance. Increase by PQs, mining, dojo and staying online for excessive amounts of time.
- Dilligence increases scrolling success rates (excluding special scrolls) and can give you an increased chance of double mastry on crafting. Increase by crafting.
- Charm allows you to gain a pocket slot at level 30, increase by equipping Nx and by gaining fame. 

Another really easy way of increasing traits it through the ranked mu-lung dojo gloves, and the funky equips from mystic gates (horntail abs t-shirt, etc). Mystic boss useable drops, such as arkarium's beard also give free potions.

1. Fight Low-Level Enemies to Level-Up Your Character Faster

There are several benefits of leveling up your hero. You receive stats, skill points and can use higher-level weapons (once you reach their level limit). 



You will need EXP to fill your character’s level meter. While completing quests is the best way to gain plenty of EXP points, another fun way is to fight low-level monsters at the very first location or a previously cleared location to gain EXP and level-up your hero faster. 

Reaching a new level will make it easier for you to fight monsters in previously cleared regions. Don’t forget to equip your hero with powerful weapons/armor/items, allocate stats to your hero’s attributes and skill points to an active or passive skill before fighting enemies.

Choose a Spot That Has Few Monsters
 

Each location has monsters roaming around in groups or solo on a platform. Scan the region and choose a platform or a cliff that has one or a maximum of two monsters. In Pocket MapleStory, your hero loses HP even if a monster touches him/her. If you are fighting with multiple enemies, chances of losing HP are higher. 

You may move your hero to a safe spot, in a corner, and then launch an attack when enemies move to the other direction or use powerful weapon/armor/kill to make sure monsters get defeated faster before they come closer to your hero. 
Another way is to scan and identify those platforms that have fewer monsters, climb to that area and rapidly press the attack button or use “Auto Combat” to take them out faster. Enemies will respawn in a few seconds at the same place, so wait in a corner and launch attack as soon as you see a monster appear.  
 How to Get High-Level Weapons, Armor and Accessories 

Tap on “Candy Shop” and then press the capsule machine tab. There’s a weapon capsule, an armor capsule and an accessory capsule. You will see a list of probable items under each capsule. 

A regular capsule set costs mesos whereas premium capsules requires premium coupons, which you can get if you complete special quests, become a VIP or via the daily rewards option. Before tapping on a capsule, select “Item LV” to choose the level of the random item. 

You can receive potions from “Consumables”. Search for an old man with “Consumables” label above him in the “Perion” region. Similarly search for an NPC with the “Equipment” label in the same region to buy weapons and armor. Use your map to locate such NPCs. You can buy both potions and weapons using mesos. 

When buying a weapon or item from the equipment store, choose the one which has a blue up arrow beside “ATT”. 

Before embarking on a quest, make sure you equip your hero with the best weapons and armor. Tap on your hero’s profile pic located at the top-left corner of the screen. Select the “Equipment” tab and tap on a weapon, armor or accessory. Do not select those items that have a red “stop” symbol above them. Such items can be used once the character reaches their “level limit”. 

After tapping on a weapon armor or item, tap on “Slot” to equip your character with it. It will be automatically fitted to its respective slot. To remove an object from your hero’s equipped weapon/accessory list, tap on it and then tap on “Cancel”. You can get weapons or items by completing quests or via the “Capsule Machine”.
