General

Nexon called the Masteria EXP a "bug" when referring to it in the "A Better Maple" thing, since the amount of exp for jesters, scarecrows, etc. was unchanged since before Big Bang, when more experience was needed to level up.

Answers for that can be seen [url=http://maplestory.nexon.net/micro-site/abettermaple]here.[/url]

Look, they "nerfed" the experienced of these areas, because everyone abused these locations and NEVER went anywhere else in the game. All players did was level up to 20, go to the Zombie map in the chimney until they could get to Scarecrows in the chimney until they could get to Jesters in the chimney, then go to Aliens in NLC until they could party play in LHC.

Those were the only locations anyone EVER went to and would completely ignore any other content existing or added to the game. Some players got to lv 200 in less than a week. It was ridiculous. So, they re-balanced the exp of these areas to be equal to everywhere else.

[quote=heaVINsent]I understand lhc got nerfed and no one goes there to train/pq on crocs any more.. but what happened.. sorry just came back from break a few days ago.. Leveling a new character.. is there any monsters that gave the same amount of xp jesters did at around lv 60-70.. or is it solely on pq's now.. Nearly all the pq's are boring me to tears.[/quote]
Jesters were never meant to give that much EXP. it was an unknown thing by nexon or so they said that at one point.

Yes but for MPE you need 100 zebra tickets

[quote=heaVINsent]you're talking about the pieces that turn into cards when u collect around 10 each right?[/quote]

well its 100 pieces and yeah you could do that or you could just get 3 for free everyday by talking to spiegelette

I read this as Jetts.

[quote=okaythen]@SoCalKing They actually re-nerfed scarecrows again when the commerci thing came out.[/quote]

Really? damn that's lame, I had no clue.

[quote=heaVINsent]@socalking im aiming for 120 for link skills on xenon n demon avenger.. feels like its taking much longer to level than it did before.[/quote]

Well what I did was get to 70, save my MPE Tickets(Login the mule each day & Collect) I did this till I had about 15 to 20 tickets, waited for a 2x event then I just simply did 70 to 120 with 2x and 1.5x tots coupon in about two hours or so.

I did this because I still wanted to play on my main character rather than be on low level mules for hours.

You go to monster park extreme now from 70 and up. It gives really good exp and some decent rewards from 60 - 70. I would just grind at robos or scorpians its the best bet since jesters got nerfed.

Monster park extreme, you get 3 free tickets a day (ithink)

Scarecrows still have their exp... or sandrats at ariant, not near what jesters used to give but as soon as you get to 70 you can do monster park extreme. I usually get my link mules to 70 at sandrats in ariant.
