General

Do you think ms should add a new element?

If so which one(s)?

We currently have:
Fire, Ice, Holy, Heal, Poison, and Lightning. (Correct me if there's more)

I think we should add Dark, because several classes already have a dark-ish theme to them.

Dark element already exists in the game. There are a bunch of monsters that are weak/strong against it.
However the only class that actually has dark element attacks is Evan (Dark Fog and Killer Wing).

The other skills look like they would have dark element like BaMs but for some reason Nexon decided to make them "Physical" aka neutral.

We might as well break bad at this point.

[quote=stevenman76]Theres already a dark. Its called luminous and kannas. Battlemages are dark too. *facepalm*

If youre talking about just mages, then Wind
If youre talking about everything, then wind is already there, and so is water
Earth and mind control/physics is needed[/quote]

In the game there is no such thing as Dark. @Hilario70 is right about Battle Mage. It is actually physical. Dark is thought to be a element but in reality it is actually "Physical". Reason why all jobs, other than jobs with Elemental Resistance, can't do their full damage on RA bosses and certain bosses.

@KanyeCannabis: but Thunder Breaker and Wind Archers are not mage.

Are we not purely talking about mage type class only? o.o

@vstartover: Evan already uses most of the element.

Water could be awesome or some class that use all the elements

What else am I missing?[/quote]

Thunder Breakers already use lots of water attacks. Wind Archers use lots of wind attacks, too. The Battle Mage revamp was supposed to use earth attacks, but no one liked it.

@CygnusKing thats called a battle mage
@jh92 elements are pointless anyways if evo gave the best exp but resis everything vs some other low exp that didn't resis an element your still going to evo making elements pointless

Like all bosses resis everything can't be stuned etc most monsters we 1-3 hit so we don't even need stun or an effect for them so what is the point of effects either lol

Elements(other than for visual effects) are pointless in maplestory when all the super bosses resists everything.
