Evan

How much have you put into your Evan

I know I've been asking quite a few questions around the Evan forum, but this seems to be the one that holds the most intelligent people and, even though it's oddly inactive, the most responsive ones, too. I also keep trying to decide what class to spend my time on and making an Evan keeps sounding like the best option, but I'm still throwing some ideas around.

In short, it's what the title states. From the birth of your Evan at level one to its current level (it would help if you were already in possession of your end game weapon, or have at least purchased it -- for accurate results), how much have you spent on your Evan? You can include NX values into this as well for skills and other various things you considered essential to add a little more fun to this thread.

Merci!

I've put a lot of time and effort into my Evan. A lot. I love her. I stopped though because I got hacked and with school, I'm just too lazy to rebuild. Rather, I don't have time. n_n

[quote=Taichikara]mmm..... 160k nx for my ele staff 5, 60k nx for my vip mage shield.... this is before I scrolled the shield, potted both, and cubed both to decent pot stats.
I cube/scroll pretty much ALL of my own stuff, so no telling how much I spent there...

I will say I've probably spent 150k nx on hair/eyes/clothes alone.. but I wanted her to look pretty... <3
Tbh, its easier for me to get nx than mesos (I have a job), so I usually don't care how much nx I spend on a character.[/quote]

I wish I had a job QQ. It's so competitive for teens .

Never bought NX, I used the NX credit I obtained from doing surveys and stuff to buy the 3 skills. As for funding, I'd like 99.5% of my funding went to my evan. The other .5% would probably be on mules to level it a bit.

Yes I do have my end-game weapon purchased but not completed, Ele staff 6. Bought it clean at 3 int 179 M.A unpotted, which is roughly around 5b+? But if you counted from how much I bought it, then 1B lol (got an amazing deal). I pot'd it myself came out 3L thank god, I've also spent around 2b in scrolling it so far. Used 50s+WS because at the time it seemed more affordable then just straight 9 gm staff scrolls. It's hammer'd (bought 2 from when it was on sale). I've used around 6x cubes on my equips, possibly just my prelude, cape, and 3L silent crusade shoulder. I found all my % int equips, crafted my overall and earrings (3%, 9%).

I'm not exactly fantastic in obtaining money so I try to budget what I have with what I need and right now finishing my staff is priority 1. If I had to think, I'd probably spent around 5b on my evan, 3b alone for the staff, 2b for previous equips I've had.

[quote=Adultery]I see 3B, even as an understatement (so I'd throw you into the 4 or 5B range), as a .. semi-reachable thing for me to be at. How do you fair in training? Do you like your damage? Do you like your speed at bossing? Do you feel like you're use to your parties, either with your skills, your damage, or both?

Sorry for sounding like a psychologist, I'm just really curious.[/quote]

Ehh, my damage helps me get by, training-wise, but I don't see myself being much of an assistance on boss runs. In parties, the only buff I ever cast is Magic Resistance, as it's macro'd with Magic Guard and Magic Booster.

Happy to be of any assistance!

I play all mage classes and make good use of my Main mage's int equips... so nothing at all. I had about 10k maple points on the account randomly from some event or something to buy the books with.

I've spent $0 on my Evan, and maybe like ~500mil total?

I'm not very rich, in-game or irl

Well to be honest I have spent almost $1,000 on my Evan but that's 'cause i really suck at managing money. I did not spend any $$$ on it till it was level 14x. I bought the NX books with maple points i had on my account when i came back to maple. I would say that around 2bil in mastery books (add the nx ones converted to mesos, lv 120,160 skillbooks that i bought, I didnt zak for them, MW 30 and the rest...) Around $100 on nexon outfits/stuff like the haircut. note: all my crap is permanent, the pet, pet equips, overall, etc. I was lucky with the Staff I didn't pay a sent for it ^_^ though i traded my good ele wands and some other equips I had. Like 10b-12b on %INT equips. And around $50 on exp coupons or inventory slots. You don't need to have a lot of mesos/$ to have a great maple character, just manage your money wisely, buy only what's necessary and try to find decent deals. In my opinion Evan is a truly unique, interesting, and entertaining class I really recommend the class. Hope you make one ^_^

PD: If you make one, no matter what happens don't get more than 38 base LUK you'll regret when you're at high levels.

[quote=pickathunder]More than anything else I've spent mesos on in my entire MS career. I estimate at least 3b, but that's probably an understatement.

NX-wise, I'd say about fifty~sixty bucks, for shops, a Soul Teddy hat, the occasional SoK and whatnot.[/quote]

Oh my, oh my. I don't know why I thought having 1.5b was going to be an accomplishment and I could succeed with it. I never knew how much it took to develop a character ..

I probably sent 20b. That includes the nx to meso ratio.

How did you get by without spending money on skill books, @alienayat ? I'm curious about that. And what is your end game wand that you purchased? I thought that the Elemental Staves / Wands were much more pricey than that.

And @shadowmagezx , what do you mean you took it out because of Chaos?
