Shadower

To all the Shadowers.

I am currently a level 93 chief bandit and i was wondering... what inspired you to become a shadower i mean i love the look of the skills and all the variation but what helped you get there? anything in particular?

And also is there any alternative to typhoons or do i just need some awesome music and grind my ass off there :O

Thanks to all who post

being a little 6th grader, wanted to create a better bandit against a class-mate that i found out that played maple from band-camp haha
eventually, from cpq mule for 4 months to afk-ing 24/7 at WR, to buying choke nx to 4x at typhons while abusing the no fall glitch, bombing bigfoots while dying more times leading to losing more exp than the actual BF exp to wasting 10m on a job advance, and going on strong...

Why can't you boss with a shadower? o_o

Also, you can look really cool and 1HKO everything.

[quote=s3xysp3arr]Saw this and had the exact question (well close):

As Corsairs/BMs/etc you can boss in 4th job, what can you do with a shadower?[/quote]

u can look ninja like as u kill monsters

I killed typhons till lvl 120 and my motivation was to not fall and see how long I can last in the map

For all those rollbacks, Nexon gives us three days of 2x events? WHAT. THE. HELL. And I missed 'em all. Just my luck.

I chose a bandit because they never get hit.
I stayed at Typhons from level 80-123, never found an alternative.

Someday=whenever. So, whenever.
500m is fine.
Are you going on today for the 2x?

Wellya. We discussed this, I thought. I'm in a bossing guild, so it'll take me maybe a week tops. Is 500m or so good?

I was always motivated to hit Shadower. I don't know why. I guess it's the skills, and how awesome we look? xP. I finally hit it on Sunday, and it's amazing. Just grind your ass off, man.. 4x helps a lot... I'd say go to Gallos til 105 or so, then start Himing. You should get Rex earrings for the 10% HP. It should help a tad bit.

I mean, just look at all of us... We look so amazing... And we look even more amazing when we train!

Good luck, and have fun when you hit Shad.

heyguise, I blew up my d.khanjar, then my friend gave me one that's already potentialed, and the potential is 12 LUK/STR. . Thank God for blowing it up... Now my range is even better than before..

Whenever I get new equips I like to test out my damage and it usually ends up in me training ... like today! 20% left til 146 (:

Savage blow. Then my friend called me a noob which inspired me to beat him and hit 120.
Then I told myself I would quit. Saw how awesome boomerang step was and started grinding at skeles. I was hooked.
Now I'm taking a semi break from hardcore grinding and also do not have as much time to play due to the fact that I have 2 jobs.

Just take it one step at a time. "Yes I finally hit 70. Let's go for 80, 90, triple digits. 110, now 4th job."
Good luck!

Well when I made my bandit, there was no third job yet (only videos & speculation), but I always liked melee classes and Savage Blow looked awesome so I put that+that= Bandit for me.

I'm still trying to reach 4th job. The only problem is that my name becomes invalid once I do hit it.

3 years ago I was a hermit. Back then GPQ was tough, we had a CB to bomb Ergoth. Watching my good old friend bombing Ergoth all by himself made me realize I want a bandit. I ended up making a page but then I was forced to quit the server. Then I remembered the fun it seemed back then when my CB friend bombed Ergoth and I went for a bandit.
Ever since I don't regret my chosen path.

Along the way what moved me up were my friends, many who don't play anymore. I leveled slowly (nearly 3 years from 1-175 lol) and I was thinking of quitting a few times back then but my friends always set me back on my path. Now, giving up doesn't even come up to my mind because I know this is the class I must finish.

Back then all I had were Typhons and Himes. Now you have gellos too o; Go to all 3 places and see what suits u the best.

[quote=iDecease]Well it all started a few odd years into the past. I made a hermit and one day i came to a voodoo map and saw some CB training there. I was in awe, I couldnt stop watching him train, it was so awesome. so I realised being a bandit was the road for me. Other motivations was watching deadwind123 on youtube and wanting the control and to just be a shad so badly. Eventually, I got to 120 such a happy moment as I can remember(this was especially significant because lvl 120 was still hard to get to). Having that first bs fly infront of me was well worth the effort. The top shads in my server compelled me to get stronger and continue lvling.

I have chosen the road less travel, and that has made all the difference

...and now here i am today...the king of shadowers. bwahahahaha

grr your one of those people knocking me out of top 600

try listening to some hardstyle at hard.fm or some two steps from hell, great training music for me lol. my motivation for my shadower is just because i like them, theres nothing to it i just like the dit class and wanna stick with it and get to 200.

Gallos
Himes with a priest
Nightshadows
idk about ulu city and your lvl but might be worth a shot just trying it out

I trained at typhons 81-98 which took me about 2 or 3 training sessions of 4x

then I moved to gallos 98-117 (110-120) where my 'hell levels' gosh, so slow when you got a db leveling 2x times as fast Dx -sigh-
Skeles 118-130, gonna continue there till I can 2 hit in Oblivion 5 (:

Edit: My inspiration ?
The respect I got from other people for being a cb while everyone was making dbs (:
when I got to 120 I got so many gratz from strangers <33 even today (when i'm 130) I still get gratz ^-^

ring mule + 2x event + 2x card + hs + 2x db = something like 14x exp
training on 14x exp with a preist and aran and gallos was the best exp ever
and then on 8x from 120-144

I enjoyed playing my cb but it got hacked two years ago. So after coming back two years later and making two other fourth jobs, I created to recreate my bandit/shadower. You can do himes or gallos using bot. I think himes is good exp. I started himes at around lvl 100.

Gallos, Himes even Gobies if u are boring, Bandits can train anywhere if u have money for MG... I played every class in maplestory and only a bandit seems fun to me, is my favorite class, hard to play? maybe; but that's the funny part... I could reach lvl 120 cuz I trained 1 or 2 hours at day, non everyday, it's possible u only need to want it... sry for my bad english XD
