[@dave07707]

I only do dailies and weeklies for absolab gear on my mules. Now that college is done I grind on my main for an extra 2 hours for meso that’s it. I have a lv 264 bow master and gaining more exp from grinding takes too much time , I just rely on monster park and exp from daily quest. It’s enough if your patient for the gains. Events will make your progression fast too . Just be consistent and patient

[@xJarlaxle]

Duky answers all my dumb questions on his stream. A+ dude

[@malthor18]

a video talking about what to do with a big chunk of time would be great! keep up the good work

[@zottffss]

13:17 You actually have to deal 140B or more damage for the full meso. I once died at 139B and got an A rank. 140B translates to 5.6% of Ursus' HP.

[@TheTayquann]

In 10 years of playing, i ditched the keyboard awhile ago and use controller. I play maybe 100-200 hours a year (hyper burn). Until recently ive been playing more as Ive found enjoyment now that i can make like 4b a week (2 solo lomien mules 1 lomien duo/trio and 3 cra 3/4 door mules). I only played on events, dont really do monster park unless hyper burn, dont even do hellux for my "main", skip the tedious events, do my weeklies and daily arcane river on whoever im focused on and stop playing for a week usually. I have 7k legion.

[@whirlwindsky]

this was rad. I only got like 2-3 hrs, so knowing roughly a solid hr of stuff I can rock my main and a 2nd maybe 3rd character without questioning if I did a good amount of stuff for the day

[@icehism2093]

Would love to see a video on what you do to progress when you are 270-275+ with high legion but haven’t made 10 boss mules yet while not putting in obscene amounts of time. Weekly video would also be great.

[@Mezmorizorz]

Just grind in the time you have after the good dailies and weekly bosses. Boss mules are super overrated. They're just money that takes a really long time to actually pay for itself. Grinding is still good money, and grinding also gets you sac and frags which are much more damage once you get past the early stages of gear progression.

[@marcosd4402]

​@@Mezmorizorzbro cra and akechi mules take 1-2 weeks of their own income to pay off. Lomien isn't worth going for

[@takoyaki3628]

exp gain doesnt always get slower the higher you go, for example at 244 all the dailies gave about 7%, but at 248 because you get tenebris it becomes 10% a day :D On avg I usually only play like 30 mins a day, you usually only need to spend extra time doing weekly bossing once a week good luck everyone!

[@johnytran1856]

I actually did this in hyperion but with hyper burn 260. I literally just go on finish all dailies and monster park at lvl 236 to 260 it takes only 1 hour honestly to finish everyday even some left over time to cube or so.

[@Duky]

W GAINS

[@sylverzenki]

There is absolutely no shame in daily story gaming, i did it from 260 to around 270~ on my main while i sat legion around 6.5k~.. Now I'm 277 8.5k legion, almost 60k stat and I only do about an hour of farming a day after dailies and that's it! Been on this routine for like a year and some change, might not seem like much but I'm not burnt out and I feel super strong! Little time commitments over a long period will yield rewards in maple, it has never been a sprint to the finish type of game! Work on little projects here ( like boss mules, legion, gear prep) here and there as well to break up all the monotony as well :D Cheers maplers and ty Duky for another banger video!

Nice vid Duky, any chance you make a video on what to do when you hit the wall after abso?

[@joaosamizs]

omg I didn't know about the solo party Ursus thing

[@keikun2004]

One question is haunting me every video I see. How do you get that 4Million damage at 216 ? I have a level 260 Paladin with Arcane symbols maxed, 40 sacred, CRA (+15% ou more stat), absolab weapon (from event), Unique/Legendary equips (15%+), 6k legion, fully stacked links, 90% IED, maxed trinodes (and even some skills) and sit around 8Million damage. I can't solo normal Lotus T_T. I see people with less levels and gear at epic (6%) and have more than 10million. Just how ?

[@Duky]

damage range is highly dependent on the class, do not compare to others, you're fine

[@whirlwindsky]

A lot of that is just the class. Links and Legion are major factors as well. He touches on them in this video, but his other videos that are dedicated to them cover it very nicely.

[@alexmeza5155]

Should take into consideration the combat power of the mule showcased. Am I wrong or is it possible for a new account to get to this power early game?

[@Duky]

you can get there if you take advantage of event resources

[@whirlwindsky]

if you go over an hr (like maybe 3-4 a day) and make use of events when you can you can probably get pretty damn close before too long. Could pass it easy in a few months. Class depending you could get something this strong in roughly a month. There are some other great videos on his channel for progression. Links and legion are huge for pushing lower level characters

[@Lmaxter500]

[@Duky]

It’s slow early but it’ll get much faster as you keep building your account

[@sylverzenki]

I tell most new players this, just make the 30-42 character out right then train one a day to lv70 until all of them are lv70. That alone is almost 3k legion right there plus your main, then over time from 70 get them to lv100, then from lvl100 push to 141 and park them there until you have bonk pots to take em to 200. Visually seeing all the characters i need to work on helped me a lot with legion and gave me a daily routine of training one guy to a set amount until eventually i had 42 chars that were 141+. It does get easier and easier the more you establish legion and youll definitely notice the gain.

[@piinkraiin]

@@sylverzenki i have 3.7k legion right now but ima stop at 4k i think? yeah it does get easier, i only have to level them to 60 for the levels to count, 70 is if u wanna use him but i only got 18 character spots anyway in legion

pretty much anything that makes you stronger, increases combat power. Starforce, pots, flames, inner, legion, a lot of stuff

[@faustodom3]

What does someone whose main is only 209 and has like 570 combat power should do to increase combat power?

[@Duky]

Just leveling up and getting more hyper stats is huge for combat power. Arcane symbols increase it quite a bit. Legendary weapon emblem and secondary too

[@abelnunez5531]

How in the world you got all best inslot gear (arcane+abso+bunch of tmother stuff) by lvl 216 already. Carry?

Fake arcane is from an older event. Abso you can get from weekly quests and killing nlomien. Lomien is not hard to do anymore. Slime ring i traded carry with my main. This gear is not necessary to progress tho.

false hope, sorry, first you character is super strong for 216, my second main, a 238 corsair, 8.5k legion, all link skills maxed out, and im only at 4m combat power and thats after investing multiple bills on equipment, so dailies will take longer, much longer for a normal person+ daily bosses would either take longer or impossible before 3m combat power in my experience.

[@CowlickKim]

So you just ran with my strat but then inferior i guess. Well thats fine, just a few things to note then: 1 - level 100> 180 can just be bought of with 50% exp potions from the legion shop. Just use 2 of them and the more levels you gain the faster they will level till 180. 2 - Those legion potions and your daily arcane/tenebris quests scale with 2* coupons and gold pots that you get 7 of on sunday. So save your quests when you clear them find a rune use pot and 2* and watch yourself get like 50% more daily exp. 3 - This works on regular/luna server as well, and given your not dutch you can trade meso there for the maple points needed for tour. But more important you can just go and buy at the spiegalman arcane express npc, TO NOT EVEN DO DAILIES FOR FREE! 4 - Monster collection expedition sits at around 12/24 hours depending on expo, and will give you a steady increase in traits wich give ied charm but also reward points/milage. Wich given you have enough off it gives like a handfull of blue/pink cubes for free in the cash shop under reward points. 5 - No need to get droplets either as you can buy them for 50m meso in Esfara general npc. And given monster park also has material baggs you wont need to harvest. After all those monster park boxes dont expire and stack making them better for storage given you know what is in them. Rather then opening like 20 2* coupons. 6 - Do all daily bosses even if you dont pick up the crystals, enough of them makes Root Abyss give you the npc that sells profession +1 level for 500k. So no need for those either, that is until lvl 10. But once you get alchemy you can extract gear leaving all the junk gear from bosses into philosopher stones. Wich in reboot/heroic go for like 300k each. And trust me that becomes a nice saving funds really fast ingame when you have a production bagg and you forget to sell them. Leaving you with 100m+ in there that you tend to forget about in case when you need it. 7 - Since inner ability is bought in cash shop with circulators as well you wont be needing honor either just stone cold meso. So try to get that done asap, But if you struggle with getting a pet then remember that ursus shop has one. So no need for the black heart drop, Besides you only need 1 per race anyways. As 1 pet is enough to cover all 14 explorers. (R.i.p. Jett) 8 - No need for a teleport rock EVER if you use the guide wich is on a 10 second cooldown. So thats 25m per week saved, So go get all them stamps! And lastly - More starforce = more legion coins, So try to just exploit the current memoria event and just put equips with any stars on any mule you can find. More stars means more 50% potions after all. And even though you only get 5 per week, thats per char so just level them all up gradually and your good to go. So yeah you missed quite a few things but you would be surprised how easy it is to just get a full legion of maxed chars like that. Then again the game rewards being tedious not being skilled. So that always was a thing. Have a nice day.

[@Duky]

No I did not run with your strat but inferior I guess... Also a lot of what you're posting is NOT true or not worth doing. A lot of this comment has nothing to do with this video either. You just posted a lot of misinformation without having any idea of the context of this video. Please do better! 1. Do NOT buy legion shop EXP potions. They are super expensive and only give you 49% exp. 2. Legion potions, arcane/tenebris quests DO NOT SCALE WITH COUPONS OR RUNES. That is straight up misinformation. 3. Using maple points to skip dailies is fine if you want, but the cost adds up quick. Dailies don't take that long. 4. You can max out traits using event resources for free easily. Once you clear weekly bosses, you can buyout the reward shop easily as well. 5. Every droplet you get is 50mil meso SAVED, buying droplets is not highly recommended. You can get a ton of droplets from events. Monster park bags give you literally like no harvesting materials. You should still harvest. 6. You should do your daily bosses and PICK UP THE CRYSTALS. Why would you not want the free meso??? Also the profession coupon is good to buy to get to level 10, but getting level 10 is not that hard regardless if you do threads. 7. Inner ability using only circs is INSANELY EXPENSIVE. YOU DO NEED HONOR. You use circs to get your 2nd or 3rd line and honor for the rest. Thats the efficient way of doing it. If you are going to prog past level 210, you need more than 1 pet. 1 is NOT enough. 8. PLEASE BUY A TELEPORT ROCK. The guide does not take you to every single map.

[@CowlickKim]

@@Duky Well i dont see what else you would be buying with those legion coins then given you only intent to play for like 1 hour daily but sure you do you. And they do scale, but you dont have to take my word for it just open the battle chat when you collect it and just give it a go for 1 day. But i guess thats why im higher level then you, as no difference other then that i have tried or play longer is there. (Wich means nothing given as i to only play like 1 hour a day.) I know daily's dont take long, but why not do both servers and get heroic for free. After all it takes the same 1 hour play time for both and its always nice to do have some spare points lieing around in case you miss a day on a event or so. Given that once more, i use the potions so i dont need to level a legion as it levels itself over time with only 5 potion uses a week per char i wanna level. Sure you can get traits from events, but again do you wanna spend time getting event currency if you can also open a menu and click like 10* in less then 10 seconds a day to get the same results? Because you talk about it not being worth it, but i think THAT specificly is a waste of my time. droplets sure enough are handy to have, but again since my legion just levels itself why would i not have an overkill of weekly crystals? So why chase events/drops if i can just go get them when i need them, and sure if i do run into them they end in the box but under no reason would i go out of my way to do an event to get them. For the crystals line i said: even if you do not, Never said: dont pick them up, so that ends right there. And for materials from treads and harvesting, you again make me wonder if you wanna play less then 1 hour. As treads pre = 1 hour alone, and harvesting requires 1k kills before you can even do it, and that is before you even harvested 1 herb or 1 ore. Then again i agree with mp boxes not giving much, but you also gotta understand in 1 hour playtime you dont need waps so what are you gonna use them on anyways? Now you tell me you need honor as i progress past 210, then you dont know i delete 260 chars just for fun cos im bored. Only to remake the whole account again to do it all again as in my eyes its that easy starting with nothing else then nx. For pets same thing, as only the main needs full pets, as boss mules at their peak will only pick up 1 crystal at most a week. So sure for all cures and auto potion its handy but not really what i can call a must. And lastly, yes guide does not take you everywhere, but with any daily quest just generally sending you to ANY map in the area to just kill 200/800 region mobs. I doubt you will need to find the most optimal maps to just get that stuff killed, if anything less optimal maps tend to have higher burning for the mobs that you do kill. So make of that as you will and decide then if you need the 25m weekly cost for the TP when quests can be taken trough the lightbulb and you can just use any area in any region. Now im not even going to butcher the fact that pre 250 is done in a week with proper burning. But clearly the intend on the reply is to just prove me wrong rather then seeing that it just was advice on having progress in 1 hour daily. Much like your video's title say's you wanna talk about. Because when it comes down to this stuff i can tell you i have been doing this more then anyone else. And i can also tell you that when you try to make a video on how to play less, but then give out advice to play more at the same time. Then that is confusing not just for me but also for others. Last note: Daily Arcane Quest EXP is set based on level and fixed handed out by the npc. But if you look at the battle tab you see that it then is given as normal EXP once you gain it. in my case Limina EXP day 1 was 7B, and day 2 with 1 rune and 1 MP 2* coupon was 10B wich is proven that on the same level i gained 15% on day 1, and 25% on day 2. And on both i grinded the same mobs as i only do daily. So dont think i just randomly trow that info out, i did my testing before i would ever advice anything. Wich leaves me on the last note, wich is that this was all to note... Or in other words its advice, you can also just try and not like it, and discard it just the same. After all having fun while playing a game in your own way is THE no 1 important thing to do. Still have a nice day.
