40 MapleStory Tips for New and Existing Players

[@urunemployedfriend]

Straight to the point, no lazy talk. Love it love it love it! Earned a sub and hoping for more!

[@RathGMS]

More will be coming for sure!

[@1baudelaire271]

This production is great! Well distinguished among Maplestory content!

[@RathGMS]

Why thank you! I hope to bring some interesting/informative content to the Maple community!

[@ZaneTrick]

Super well put together video, no unnecessary preamble, straight to the useful info!

[@theophanyy5698]

Probably the cleanest and most helpful video for maple I have seen in a while. Cant wait to see more :) Love the little raccoon at the bottom also pls keep him

[@Parctikl]

I've loved your editing on your videos for your other channel and remember always hearing your Chu Chu ending; I figured you were a Maple OG! So excited to see this editing come to the Maple community, excited for whatever you'll bring to the table Rath!

[@RathGMS]

I'm glad you enjoy it! Been playing Maple basically the entire 20 years it's been around with breaks off and on so this is something I've wanted to do for a veeeery long time. Especially since MapleStory is the whole reason I knew KZbin even existed.

[@adamgoodhew5501]

Love the video! Great editing/animations, loving that Raccoon. Cannot wait to see more vids come out from you!

[@xn--g5h6690ovb]

I haven't played in so many years; this was extremely helpful. Thank you! The editing looks clean and professional. The raccoon on the progress bar is a cool little dude, a nice touch.

[@scoottubechannel8058]

Yoooo I was waiting for this! I've been hearing the maple sound effects in your genshin videos for a while and I'm so glad you're making maple content now as well :)

[@RathGMS]

I'm glad so many people are enjoying it, it'll never get as many potential viewers as Genshin but MapleStory has always been in my life and one of my favorite games!

[@scoottubechannel8058]

You're right about the lower potential views than genshin, but I think you could definitely become one of the bigger maple creators with the amount of polish your videos have and your editing style

[@RathGMS]

I cannot wait until Buff Freezers are gone for good!

[@pr4zaVIDZ]

Which also leads to less Crash Shop moments, double win 😂

[@ElleEnd]

Sold my broid in time hehe

[@BravoBrakas]

Wait, aren’t buff freezers good? Why would you want them to dissapear?

[@RathGMS]

@skanksu Buff Freezers effect is becoming a permanent passive effect of the game so we get all the benefits without the requirement of buying perishable items.

[@BravoBrakas]

@@RathGMS omg nice! Is that coming with the 6th job update?

[@satangms]

10/10 production value, liked, subscribed, very well deserved! AXIOM TO THE MOOOOOOOOOON 🚀 🌕

[@gruffry]

dude, this is awesome content. as a returning player after nearly 20 years, this is extremely helpful. thanks!

bro has made 1 maple video and is already the goat 😭

[@RathGMS]

That is some high praise! I appreciate it :)

[@wugege]

THIS VIDEO IS SO GOOD??? LIKE IT'S SUCH HIGH QUALITY PRODUCTION (ALSO AXIOM BEST GUILD)

[@ImCrowns]

great video, love the way it was edited. very simple, straight to the point. Keep it up buddy!

[@jordanazerad123]

Wow you now get to be the most under rated Genshin youtuber as well as the most under rated Maplestory youtuber! Jokes aside this is great I just started playing MS when Khali came out so this is awesome

[@RathGMS]

It's a very fun game! And if you ever had the issue of not having enough to do in Genshin well...welcome to the opposite of having more than you can do in 24 hours lol

[@joshuyao1904]

Your editing is so good i like your content

[@townieofthenorth]

Subscribed! Content like this is amazing as someone that played back in the day but hasn’t been around for all these updates and systems. Played a bit last summer during burning, and same thing now. Really rounded out my knowledge of the game with this one!

[@RathGMS]

Glad I can help! I've left and come back numerous times so I know how hard it can be.

[@Lennoxrenol]

Omg I love the little raccoon running at the same time of the video length! Just admiring the (literal) little things 🤓

[@JacobTheSunPreacher]

Dude, what?? i didn't even know i could use Y to accept quests O_o (F6)

[@sensei214]

Never knew you had a second channel that covers maplestory. Subbed 😀

[@RathGMS]

It's brand new! But I've been playing this game since it left beta so it's a bit of a passion project!

[@MaObsession]

34 for me is a game changer. Good video.

[@RathGMS]

One of the best tips I ever learned right there lol

[@Sam-vi2ho]

People always forget to include the alliance quest that literally gives you a beginner passive with free stats.

[@RathGMS]

Only reason I didn't include it but included something like Afterlands is because getting Afterlands is the same for every class and I know that Will of the Alliance is a little bit different for each class group. So I really just don't feel qualified to try to summarize it in 30s-1m at most to fit in a video like this. But it is a great lesser known thing for free stats!

[@nifty127]

Very nice QoL tips for maple! Subbed.❤

[@ArcaneLD_MS]

W editing & content, earned a sub

[@RathGMS]

I'm glad you like it! :)

[@TalTheBest]

You're so good at expressing yourself, I have to think things through when I speak. Any tips on that?

[@RathGMS]

I promise you it is more of a trainwreck without the magic of editing! Recording yourself regardless of making content with it can help you recognize problems with your speech habits. I wish I could say it translated well to my everyday speaking but at least it helps with recording.

[@TalTheBest]

@@RathGMS Doing that sometimes, like a voice diary. It helps to organize the thoughts, but I doubt it will lead me to be as good as you are one day. You're very awesome at that just so you know.

[@xmartyboy]

Yo dude nice video!, Where did you get that chestpiece on your characters?

[@RathGMS]

I think you might mean my cape, the one with the white fur around the neck. It's called Silver Wolf Cape and it came from a Surprise Style Box.

[@devonleavitt1771]

Honestly subbed for the tiny raccoon :)

[@Soccer626]

Hey Rath, know you from Genshin! Glad to see we’ve suffered from the same addictions

[@-ayemi-980]

what is that green highlight of your chars? is it like a skin or effect or something?

[@RathGMS]

It's an option they added somewhat recently, it has its moments of being useful especially if you play with max FX on during bosses like myself. It's under Options > Laboratory > Check the box then alter the settings

[@TheWryCry]

wait what buff freezers are getting removed? so what happens if you die, don't you lose the buffs anymore?

[@nifty127]

You won’t lose them anymore 😊

[@RathGMS]

Exactly! Permanent buff freezer effect on every character, it's really a HUGE QoL change.

[@wampwamp]

the monster hunter music in the back lol

[@GDsKimchi]

AXIOM TO THE MOOOOOOON!!!! 🌝🚀

[@jojojaigere6182]

Super help vid thx man

[@RathGMS]

Glad it helped!

[@shawn1091]

Love it, subbed

[@derptartss]

Where did you get a black bandana in reboot?

[@RathGMS]

So it's a bit tedious. It drops for beginner-type characters (heroes before aran, resistance, beginner, cygnus knight etc) from low level mobs (I use Rien) You have 2 options. First, farm it as a beginner on a new character, you can level beyond 10 if you need to. Second, party with someone on a beginner (alt account or very generous friend) and have it drop, let it sit on the ground til it becomes free for all loot and loot it on your main. It's a "rare" drop so it can take a while. I've gone up to a couple hours before.

[@derptartss]

@@RathGMS holy cow. Okay thanks for letting me know

[@jordancoughlin7378]

I love this little racoon that shows video progress haha

[@HeyItsJono]

On point #9, how do players force runes to spawn, and why do they chase Darkness runes?

[@RathGMS]

You can only really influence them to spawn by entering a map nobody is in and being in it/killing mobs to get one to spawn. Darkness forces 3 Elites to spawn and many monster collections require specific elites as well as events often have killing elites as an objective. Outside of those reasons elites are also just EXP pinatas so they're good for that too.

[@cukkyun]

WHAT?! okay i didn't know that elites spawn after mob count, thought it's pure rng with 5 minutes cooldown after killing one on a map

[@RathGMS]

It's not an exact mob count but there is an estimated minimum 3 minute cooldown between them and some requirement of mobs killed/increased chance per mob killed. As with most things in Maple we'll never truly know the real data but you will notice more elites if you go with the channel swapping method.

[@WageSlaveF2P]

HOlyshit this video was super helpful 10/10

[@adrianywk]

Bro I can't find Kamura Village in the Guide or Interdimensional Portal iykyk

[@ryanhammond2403]

Great video

[@erickcastaneda8604]

Are buff freezers getting moved somewhere else?

[@RathGMS]

Within the month of August (don't know the exact date) Buff Freezers will be made a permanent passive effect as well as many other QoL changes.

[@erickcastaneda8604]

@@RathGMS Thank you!!

[@squigly80]

@@RathGMS I am going to cry this is massive!!!!!

[@christianvittorio]

Total beginner here, why does everyone want Runes of Darkness and what is the significance of Elite monsters? I've seen a few of them but I didn't know they were anything special

[@RathGMS]

Elites give significantly more EXP than a regular mob and are often needed for events (killing X amount of elites), some are even needed for monster collection.

[@chardors.....]

Where did this channel come from yoo

[@RathGMS]

Pig Beach

[@Ereklo_Game]

w guide!!!!!

[@RathGMS]

Thanks! I love your guys' content too, I was watching your stream when 6th job was announced! :)

[@SuchABaka-]

great video

[@RathGMS]

Glad you enjoyed it! :)

[@raullarosa2009]

Ultimate beginner question, reboot or regular?

[@VonhGaming]

Shame that some of these tips will become obsolete i few months, or so I've heard. Thought they mentioned getting rid of Zakum leveling in Late Aug/Early Sept

[@RathGMS]

Some yeah. I'm not entirely sure if it's Zakum EXP or just the "Zakum tech" of killing the arms and coming back. With the removal of the 30 minute boss cooldown the second option makes sense.

[@fsfs2778]

Is.this only for gms and not msea?

[@RathGMS]

Most should apply to both but as I'm not super familiar with the differences between the two I can't say what will and won't exactly.

[@dewtran]

Rip Zakum Tech :(

[@RathGMS]

It will be missed! Such a valuable thing to be lost to the newer players.

Phantom's day will come! Maybe...

[@epiczrisen3731]

I was wondering why you sound so familar haha

[@mikah8998]

I PLAY PHANTOM ):

[@RathGMS]

I feel your pain, I loved Phantom so much I gave it my original name without any i's or L's.

[@CruelEdgez]

How dare you insult phantom. I take great offense to this

[@RathGMS]

I actually LOVE the class and the idea. But boy does it feel awful to play these days. It was my first class when Reboot was created. So now my OG name is stuck on it. lol

[@CruelEdgez]

@@RathGMS As a phantom player... I agree plz give mobbing skill + more damage thanks, though I think I have enough experience on phantom to say that phantom is a class

[@RathGMS]

Their identity of stealing skills to make their own kit is one of my favorite ideas in games. As an oldschool Stalker main in Ragnarok Online I was overjoyed when Phantom released in Maple.

Kinda sad how i knew all this stuff already but still suck
