From April 28th to May 4th, maplers can win the new Low Rider Riding skill from Gachapon. As with the Unicorn Riding skill, maplers don’t need to have mastered the Riding skill to drive this sexy ride. All they have to do is level 13 and above and they can “bounce a Deuce” from Henesys all the way to Florina Beach! When they win the Low Rider or any other Riding skill, they can open up their Use inventories and double click on the skill coupon. Then they’ve just mastered the ride! Then they can check the Skill Inventory and double click on the brand new skill under Beginner’s Basics to enjoy the favorite new mode of transportation. Take actions now, maplers!

MapleStory Experience for Monsters

Eventually the exchange becomes merely a way to clear useless etc items for usable items in Maplestory, though selling them for pure meso is always an option. Solid horns are usually preferred to level up a lower-level character, due to the number of players training on the Jr. Kitties at any one time. Zombie Teeth are more expensive, but the chance of getting a Fairy Wing as a reward can offset this extra cost.

Also, players train on Zombies far longer than Jr. Kitties. Jr. Yeti Skins fall in between, more expensive from a higher-level monster, and providing better potions than Solid Horns, but nothing too special. Every exchangeable etc item has a specific scroll type (usually 10%) that has a small chance of being given as a reward for a trade-in.

The Nexon Games Treasure Hunt

Playing Nexon games has always had its rewards, but how would it be if you could find amazing treasures for one nexon game while playing another? Wonder no more! Between April 21st and May 7th, 2010 you can receive awesome rewards in MapleStory and Mabinogi while trying out two other Nexon titles.

All you have to do is be a registered MapleStory or Mabinogi player prior to April 21st and become a registered user for iTCG Online or PopTag! Get yourself up to level three in either game by May 7th and you��ll receive a four hour 2X drop card to use in MapleStory or a two hour Combat 2X item to use in Mabinogi!

If you reach level three in both games, you will receive two of each reward!

New Areas! Kerning Square Mall and Neo City!

Hello Maplers!

Have you heard the rumors? There are incredible things happening in Maple World. Some are happy and exciting--like opening of the new Kerning Square Mall in Kerning City. Are you ready to shop in style and help a young entertainer's dream come true all while enjoying new dungeons and PQs? Then there are darker tales unfolding. There are stories of a mad traveler in the wilds near Magatia bearing tidings of a terrible future

Check out the details below:

Maple Idol at the Kerning Square Mall!

Dreams really can come true in MapleStory. Take Blake, a humble public service worker at the new Kerning Square Mall in Kerning City. He may not be much now, but he has the talent to become a superstar! Unfortunately there are evil Rock Spirits who are trying to steal Blake's debut song and keep him from his destiny. Blake needs heroes to help prepare the way, battle these evil spirits in a brand new dungeon and make sure the stage is secure for Blake's big debut. Do you have what it takes to create the next big MapleStory superstar?

Fight for the Future in Neo City!

Andy is a madman who has recently been spotted in the wilds near Magatia. They say he tells a horrible story of machine feet trampling over the human race in the future and claims to be looking for brave adventurers to fight for the future of Maple World.

Can we afford to believe this madman? Can we afford not to?

If you'd like to check out the truth of Andy's story, Broker Han in Magatia has the scoop on a time traveler who has come back from the future to recruit Maple World's mightiest heroes. It seems that in Neo City in the year 2503, the human race barely survives by scurrying under the metal feet of killer robots. That dark future doesn't have to pass though. You can fight for the future in a huge new dungeon and make it a better one for all humanity!

Easter Egg Eggscavation!

It's Easter time in Mabinogi! As you go about your part time jobs collecting eggs, you may notice the hens of Erinn look a little perplexed. Upon gathering their eggs, you may sometimes collect a fossilized Easter egg!

Simply free the Easter egg from the slate and rock in a reasonable amount of time without damaging the egg.

If you are successful, you will receive an iconic Easter Egg Capsule. Pop it open to gain access to the sweet morsels inside. The candy will provide you with special stat bonuses for a short time. To increase the chance that you will get some of this special stat candy, you may use the Event Reward Booster Potion, available in the in game cash shop.

Happy Easter!

MapleStory Winter character cards

Help your character dive into the spirit of the holidays with a sparkling new Winter Premium Character Card! These special cards each come with three items: a festive cap with a dangling poof-ball, a pair of fuzzy snow boots, and a fur-lined Santa Claus suit!

Male humans show their rugged individualism with patches on the knees of their holiday outfits while female humans keep things trendy with fuzzy little poof-balls on their leggings and coat.



Since they're from the desert, elves don't always remember the importance of staying warm. That's why the male elves' holiday outfit consists of shorts! At least they can keep their necks toasty with a soft scarf. Female elves, in their mini-skirts, will shiver as much as their male counterparts, but at least they'll look amazing doing so, with a pair of fuzzy armbands and a stylish bow choker.



Male giants sport the traditional Santa attire but with a modern twist: a fashionable turtleneck that peeks out from beneath the suit. Female giants play the Mrs. Claus role but again, with a twist: a figure-hugging top and a short skirt, with trendy leggings tucked into boots to complete the look.



Rebirthing has never been jollier! Get your holiday gear before they're gone on January 5th, 2010!

The Third Job in MapleStory

In the third job, these Mages undergo a nice power boost. Explosion has a range that rivals Fire Arrow, and a power that is equal to Fire Arrow, rendering it useless, seeing how Explosion is a mob skill, whilst Fire Arrow is stuck to one target at a time. Though, Fire Arrow may find solace in the fact that it gets an upgrade in the form of the Fire Mage's Magic Composition spell. This attack is a fusion of Fire and Poison placed into an ethereal bow.

When launched, this attack strikes with a Base Damageof 150, and also a 70% chance of Poisoning the enemy for 40 seconds. Fire Mages also get Poison Myst which is a poison based mob skill that initially hits one monster for damage and then creates a mist with 70% chance of poisoning for all monsters that travel within the mist.

Upon reaching the 4th job, Fire/Poison Archmages are a mirror image of Ice/Lightning Archmages, with the exception that you use Fire/Poison Skills. With Fire Demon, you can choose whichever monster to render vulnerable to Ice attacks. To add on to this set fantastic of Skills, you get to use Meteor which hit up to 15 monsters at once. 570 basic damage and Elquines, which you can summon a demon based on the Ice element.

Getting in the OPQ in MapleStory

In order to get in the Orbis Rush Party, you will need to be in a channel where nobody is in the party quest. Only one party can be in the OPQ. Well, if this is true, let the leader of your party click on Wonky, and choose 'Apply for entrance'.

In MapleStory you and your party will go in if nobody else is in. If there are all jobs for example Thief, Magician, Bowman, Warrior in your party, you will get Wonky's Blessing, this can give you a bonus of attack, avoidability, accuracy, and more things like this. It doesn't really matter in Rush Orbis Rush Party, because you don't need to kill monsters.

I got this information from site, and put it here, just want to it could help more players in the game, and if you have suggestions or advice, you can post it to our comment. Thanks a lot.
