Preparing for GMS Dual Blades

[It'sNotMe]

I'm assuming that in the next 3 months (most likely at the end of school or at the beginning of summertime (early June)), GMS will have Dual Blades. So, I'm thinking about going dexless to have some godly (RAWRIMADINO) damage. I started off by wasting around $15 USD on a 12 ATT WG. The next thing I'm going to do is scroll a BSR (Blue Sauna Robe), and find some good low level defense (reply if you know what to wear).

Anyway, I'm pretty low on money, so I'm going to have to sell the remaining GFA 60% scrolls I have, and start farming for some OFD (Overall for DEX) scrolls, which I honestly have no idea where you can find those, and which monster has the best drop rate.

Thanks for your replies!

3 months?

OK, whatever you said had nothing to do with this topic. Sure, Nexon is slow on updating the game, but it's an estimate. I'm not an employee. All I want to know is what I need to prepare a dexless one.

[Jonatan]

Dont go Dexless, LowDex > Dexless in the case of dual blades, If you can get enough dex equips to wear lvl 110/120 daggers and blades the go Dexless other way go LowDex

they JUST released evan and you're "estimating" months after evan that another class comes out?

and dexless Bladers are dumb unless you can get dex to weild all the blades.

OK, thanks for telling me.

And, if you play GMS, they have a major update every 3-4 months.

it took only 3~4 months for Evan to come, its not farfetched to assume Dual Bladers will come in the summer.

i dont even play maplestory.

Well dont just be so blunt like that. I am thinking June also because thats when the revenues will come in for Nexon because alot more people play maple during the summer, as opposed to playing through the school year. People have more time on their hands as well.
Also, KMS got the jobs 3 months later after Evan. And GMS is fast with jobs since Aran came out in December and Evan is already out in Late March.

[Orange]

It'll be August most likely. I mean, it did JUST come out in kMS. And Dual Blades in August will make a limited-time character only available during school months or so.
June is way too soon. July's more possible though.

Also, she's right. Dexless is impossible for dual bladers. Well...maybe not impossible, just dumb.:stress:

-looks at Casper- he did fairly great being dexless.

Yea. Everyone kept orgasming over his range. He had a better range when he was lvl 54ish when I was lvl 64ish.

Just like the people who said Evans coming out march 31st was an april fools prank. GMS impressed me so yea i would think its 3 months, sometime in june-july. Doubt it will be in August.

[Orange]

Late July/Early August seems most practical business-wise. Find something to attract users after summer's end instead of a mass exodus away from MS. Release it too early, e.g. June, and no one will want to stay in the 4th quarter.

Edit: Also as a time limited class, August - October/November seems good business-wise. End it in October so people have something to play over Thanksgiving and Christmas and spend NX on mastery books.

[Justin]

GMS still has loads of content to get through to get Dual Bladers.
Don't get your hopes up if it's even within the next 6 months.

[Imitazion]

-looks at Casper- he did fairly great being dexless.

30 base dex, I can wear level 80 items.

Kekekekekekkeke :hypnose:

Also, Orange is riiiiighttttt about the release date. Nexon would scrape in a fuckton, and another shitload, of cash if they released Dual Bladers at said month.

[MisterPikachu]

Well, as long as I can still use my dexless daggers, I could probably be fine and "up to range" equip wise till level ~90.

Yay for +90 dex in equips n__n.

[UnholyDragon]

Still Laughing from the one time Nexon accidentaly opened Dual Blade's secret garden entrance :nowhy:

Kinda funny you couldn't leave the map either

Give examples of the contents me need.
I can only think of 1 and that is The Evan Dragon Rider PQ, which will most likely come out in 1-2 maybe 3 months.

[PinkPanther]

^ above how about adventurer's return?

[Hirrho]

I think we can expect dual bladers in gms some time mid summer or maybe early start of school year. Got to remember nexon is gready and will probably release super early cause they want to pump a ton of money from us..Was anyone else kinda suprised that nexon made us pay for those 3 evans skills to be maxed? So my guess is deepending on how much they get from evans will heavaly affacet the releas date...What i want released soon is the balance patch >.< so i can play on my slinger again...I stoped at lvl 61 i got soooooooooooo bored of minimum dmg constantly....Love and fire place :thumbsup:

[Justin]

1) Adventurer Balance Patch
2) Golden Temple
3) Dragon Rider PQ

[Andy]

1) Adventurer Balance Patch
2) Golden Temple
3) Dragon Rider PQ

Pretty sure 1 and 2 will come together.

Don't forget dual race...
..wow, hardly anything left.

[xMurtaghx]

1) Adventurer Balance Patch

They arent connected to each other.

[Max]

They arent connected to each other.

obviously he knows that, he's just listing the stuff GMS doesn't have yet.

[UnholyDragon]

Well back on Dual Blades, I just hope I dont get KSed by any sins that take the backstory negatively. Or vice versa If I recreate a sin.

And...why would they care?

[xMurtaghx]

Hopefully there wont be a time limit of when you can make them.

[UnholyDragon]

And...why would they care?

Well If You Read The BackStory The DualBlade Instructor is Jin(NightLord)'s sister who vows to avenge her father's death. The father had taken over Victoria Island and Jin defeated him. When the sister came however she assumed the father was framed and Jin was more villian than hero.

Usually Avenge involves assasination attempts most of the time. So basically as Dual Bladers we're spies to help in the Night Lord's assasination which CAN peeve off people that <3 this class, and i mean love it.:tyml:

Long Story Short: Dual Blades=Anti-Assasins
Still Your Right, I guess not many assasins would care... Theres more of them anyway:haha:

[Orange]

Maybe 3% of players actually care somewhat about the Maplestory storyline. Actually that's probably a huge overestimate. Probably close to 1%.
How many would care about it to the point of ksing? Close to zero.

[Jordan]

Why is there a Prepare thread for each new class. Just buy bandit shit.

Your lore is a little off.

Dual Blades exist to assassinate and/or spy on the current Dark Lord aka Jin, following Sulhee's instructions (and doing her dirty work). Nothing to do with the Night Lord class. There's nothing to indicate that DBs are vindictive toward the NL class.

Jin and Sulhee aren't related. Sulhee was the previous Dark Lord's (the one who was turned into a monster by the balrog) daughter, and Jin was his student. It's even hinted at that she had a crush of sorts on him (before her father died).

Orange is right about not many people caring about the lore of the game, but some of it can be enjoyable and fun to read here and there, none-the-less.

[Mattone]

Agreed, I never pay attention to it explicitly, but it's enjoyable to have something to go on other than

"SHIT GOT DOWN, WHAT DO?" which is the basis for the grinding, of course. But I don't get a bit of the astaroth deal.

[Kobe]

this job comes on July 2nd

...? What...?

QFT, wtf kobster?

[xMurtaghx]

QFT, wtf kobster?
REQFT, no really it does.
/End Sarcasm

OT: There shouldnt be any of these preparatory topics. Its an Thief based class and the info was posted on Ellin Forum before about DB (as much as they knew from KMST.)

[portablewii]

Actually all thats left is the adventurer balance patch which is hopefully coming out after the GMS anniversary and the golden temple. Dragon Rider PQ has already been confirmed to be released May 5th, 2 days from now.

[Kobe]

i didnt say that, i just got it from my friend
