MapleStory Job Description

Small description of all the jobs and their evolution.
Introduction to MapleStory

MapleStory is a free MMORPG (Massive Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game), in which your part of a fantastic world full of creatures and opportunities to gain fame and glory. You can create a hero and decide what is going to be your class/job which you are going to evolve, each obstacle overcome.

The Game

First thing to do is create an account on www.maplestory.com. Now, the first time you log in you will have to set your PIN, which works like a password to protect your account.

Then you will have to create your character. You can set his or her look and the name. You can also see the value of your attributes. They are:

STR: Influences the strength of the attack on your character
DEX: You have a better chance of attacking your opponent
INT: Influences the strength of a magic attack
LUK: You have a better chance of deflecting an attack

Now that you know what each attribute stands for, choose their values wisely.

Jobs
Jobs are occupations that your character can have in the game, which influence health (HP), magic power (MP), skills, defense, attack, type of weapon wielded, etc. MapleStory has 4 initial Jobs:

Beginner
It’s the initial job. By creating a character, he automatically becomes a beginner until you do the job advancement to pick one of the four initial jobs. A beginner has nothing that really mather. He can’t wear almost any armor and can’t use only low level weapons.

Warrior
This is the recommended job for new players, because it is easy to make and fast to train. You can evolve to a warrior by being level 10 and having at least 35 STR points. A warrior can wield swords, axes, maces and spears, each one of those with specific characteristics like power and speed. A warrior needs high STR and average DEX, which means he should have INT and LUK at the least possible.

By reaching level 30, a warrior can choose to evolve to one of three other jobs, which will influence in his skills and stats during the game.

Fighter: Uses swords and axes, their attacks are fast, but not so much powerful.
Spear man: Uses spears and other long range weapons, their attacks are slow and strong. They have less HP that fighters and pages.
Page: Uses swords and maces, they have a great defense power, but their attacks are less powerful than the ones from the fighters and spear men.

When you reach level 70, you can become:

Crusader (Fighter’s evolution) – It is the strongest job but it loses more health.
White knight (Page’s evolution) – Has a lot of health and it’s very resistant to many attacks.
Dragon knight (Spear man’s evolution) – Their long attacks are perfect to kill bosses.

When you reach level 120, you can become:
Hero (Crusader’s evolution)
Paladin (White knight’s evolution)
Dark knight (Dragon knight’s evolution)

Magician
Magicians are very delicate. Not recommended for beginners. Magicians are very hard to train on and that’s because they need MP to attack and sometimes it ends fast if they attack too many times.Besides, they can’t expose to dangers, because of they low HP. But yet, he can attack from a distance and, if well trained, his attack can be very powerful.

By reaching level 30, a magician can choose to evolve to one of three other jobs, which will influence in his skills and stats during the game.

Priest: The evolution of the cleric can do a lot of damage on undead and summon dragons to help on fights.

When you reach level 120, you can become:
