Why is no one playing
demon slayers anymore?
Don't say they got nerfed, I know they did, but it's not like they killed them off.
They're a pretty average class now.. I'm unfunded and do a lot of damage.
And I know they're locked characters, but that doesn't explain why I don't see anyone at LHC/SH..

I'm on my ds T_T
I use my demon slayer to boss and stuff but the main reason i don't play it to much anymore is because of leech aura... I don't mind damage as much its just that i really loved the old leech aura and a 1 min delay sorta ruins it...
they're hiding for now
[quote=xXlinkedXx]I think it's all the bad rep they had at Aliens (with them being the major KSers before Jetts) or that they're weapons are restricted, and are costly for good ones because the lack of godly Blunt Weapons/Axes (most Pally's go for swords and shield for more tankieness and attack speeds) and warrior armor costs A LOT because of all these warrior classes out there. (Same goes for Pirate Empress items, 200mil in GAZED but Archer stuff for as low as 25m same alliance).
But I'd say the most dead class is Wild Hunters (go out and count all the Wild Hunters NOT hacking and you'll get your answer), because of the lack of mobbing skills, and lack of godly crossbows (not many people play snipers in GAZED, mostly BMs or Mercs)[/quote]
i have a wild hunter and i don't hack i just stopped lvling mine at 42 since i started playing other classes and it kinda got out of control

I got bored of my DS quickly. I trained it out of boredom and got it to 13X. It was relatively quick to train but there was only so much rapid tapping of my attack key that I could stand.
I went on my ds recently and the dmg was terrible so i logged off
My DS has a 14k range yet can not kill a crockie in under 3 minutes. Using skills does less overall damage then spamming lash. It's retarded that having the highest range of all my 110-120 characters doesn't mean anything because nexon made our skills worse than our regular attack.
I've wanted to get my DS to 120 for weeks but not being able to kill equal to my range severely impacts the time spent.
not my favorite class but ill get him to 120 eventually for char card bonus
@Momijii: Idk all the details, just over heard it...
[quote=Deathnile]I heard that DS's are about to get some of their original dmg back during one of the new updates so I might get back into mine [/quote]
Only some.

[quote=Ravens]First off the point he makes is off topic 2nd off he replied TO me so I'm going reply to it based off what he said 3rd off you sound HIGHLY elitist there making you also sound like an ass.[/quote]
1st Point; The point he makes is not off topic, this is about why DS are dead. No where in the original thread post does he say in GMS. 2nd Point; He replied to you cause you called him stupid. 3rd Point; Elitist is not in my vocabulary so I can't respond.
[quote=Valky]one reason i don't bother with chaos lock much. even if u can teleport, u have no real control as to where u teleport to.[/quote]
It teleports you to the monsters, which I guess is enough for Nexon to perma ban one of their regular NX-buying customers.
[quote=Aaaayee]Well for me, in Scania, leveled my DS 1-110 without seeing a single DS. o.o
But then at 114, I got perma banned, because Nexon is full of dumbasses that think "Chaos Lock" is a hack.

the nerf is the reason many don't play em anymore.
anything else is just petty issues, cept for dat leech aura being useless
I quit mine because of the leech aura nerf
[quote=Ravens]@Yellondaz: I saw that after I posted and basil was being slow. You are also stupid for comparing kms to gms.[/quote]
Why come to a DS post, not read other posts before posting, then insult a guy because he makes a point. People like you ruin posts.
The reason I stopped playing my 15x DS is for the simple fact that I'm not going to sit at Crockies until 160 and then have no where to train except for Stronghold/PQ'ing after 180. So, I started other characters to work them up. I currently have over 5 characters who've all hit 4th job but one (over Lvl. 100 though). So, he's not the only one I can run with.
There for all in all, he's just there for show because he was the 1st character I made 4th job with. (After playing Maple for over 7 years - Since Closed Beta)
I will be playing mine again soon. :]
@Ravens: Well, KMS is MY current situation, and guess what, Demon Slayers are non-existant there. For the past 2 months I've seen no other DS than myself. The situation still stands, I was just saying damage has got nothing to do with it. It's just because other classes are coming out that dish damage easier then when DS first came out.
@Ravens: Yes, of course I'm stupid for comparing content that's to come shortly to a different server.
Thank you for your input. It was more of a "Damage gets better" then "omg im so pro KMS lolol"
I'd ask you to refrain from calling me stupid.
My Mercedes is cooler + I didn't have enough money at the time to fund it so I just quit <3
@Kenshin95: Thanks
[quote=Pereeia]It's mostly Phantoms. There's already over 1000 level 200 Phantoms. If you look at the other rankings you'll see they've got half that amount. Not many really like Mihiles.[/quote]
You missy are simply adorable! <3
@king2123: I could imagine, last I logged there was tons of drks in scania
@ajwright92: oh really? well come to Scania if u guys want them here
[quote=king2123]Wtf are u talking about? Check out NLC 10 of em in every alien corridor o.o leeching[/quote]
Cant really speak for us all on that notion because in khaini there a pretty rare occurance
Wtf are u talking about? Check out NLC 10 of em in every alien corridor o.o leeching
@Ravens: here, let me copy paste my 2nd post.
I play Korean Maplestory. Recently with the tempest patch, 3rd job was moved to level 60 and 4th job to level 110.
My Impact is like level 1 or 2.
Because all the existing demon slayers cant get past the fact that theyll do 20% less damage then they were before...
You dont even see much ds threads anymore the class may not be as powerful as it was but, its not that bad of a class overall.
all the dmg kiddies just play the other classes.
Where are all the ds period on basil.
I play my Demon Slayer every day. And I've been leveling him like a boss too.
I still have my ds lvl 12x he's fun just not my main
My friends quit their Demon Slayers because of nerf.
@Aaaayee: Yea I agree
Edit: everyone plays for dmg now days so that may be a reason now too that you dont see demonslayers much.
I bet if there was some huge revamp for them youd see them all over again.
Its just how maple works.
@ajwright92:
What I meant as Ultimate is that the damage (2000% in all) is higher/same as some of the ultimates.
And it does have a long horizontal damage..
@Aaaayee: Thats good for me to know i stared this ds for the simple fact its becoming a rare occurance anyhow.
It wont be like an ultimate at all because it doesnt hit an whole map.
Off topic: I still think demon lashes % is off it says 200% dmg but i dont see 200% of dmg coming out in my dmg
[quote=ajwright92]The only two thing i can think of is the nerf as stated by others and the bad reputation bandwagoners brought upon the class.
I recently started playing mine again, its not a bad class at all, just a bit tough for good dmg.
Plus i hear theres a rebuff soon after the upcoming warrior reorganization so that always helps also.[/quote]
Yeah, but everyone is going to make Cannoneer's because it goes from 600%x2 to 500%x4 with a faster delay.. So it's like an ultimate.. </3
