Shortcuts and secret teleports
I was going down the Orbis tower today to do my daily-Pianus-channel-surfing (which has been unfruitful, despite my dilligent efforts the last two weeks) when a demon slayer comes over and cusses me out for jumping down on every platform of the tower. According to him, any person who's been playing for more than two months should know the teleports (from top of the level to bottom of the level) on the Orbis tower. He claimed all the pros and godlies would know the orbis tower teleports and use them to save time. He defamed and went on his way when I told him most "pros" would be using orbis tower scrolls instead.
So, my question is, does the average 4th jobbing (who else really has reason to go to Nath all that often?) mapler know which orbis tower levels have the teleports in the map? (levels 20, 19, 16, 10, 9, 8, 6, 1 as far as I could find after the demon slayer left)
And if they do, would they expect other maplers to know these numbers as common knowledge? @.@

before long time ago there was no jumping down like alt +down it wasn't available and ther wasnt teleports earlier(if i remennber well) so it was hell the orbis tower i would use return town scrolls on floors 15 and 5 because im not so sure where do they get you if you go from 6~14
I don't know all, but I know a few
I only know about half, that guy I can guarantee you is a 40-year old virgin with a short temper.
Teleporting is SLOWER than jumping down the tower... lawl
I don't bother. If i go down the tower i deal with the collecting of 15 of ea piece and get scrolls for later usages.
I just jump down manually. I don't care about the secret teleport spots in the tower.
[quote=Taarie]Who use Orbis tower to go to Aquaroad anyway? When Orbis->Mu Lung->Herb Town->Aquaroad is way faster.[/quote]
Untrue, i tested it with my friend, i was faster using the tower. The fact that most people go Mu Lung -> herb town -> Aqua is because it requires less walking, and more doing nothing.
I don't know the floor's with portal's by memory but I can normally tell when there is a portal or isn't- and no, I wouldn't expect the common mapler to know where each and every portal is located. The only thing I would assume is that the majority of mapler's know how to get orbis scrolls to just use the rocks. The demon slayer you encountered was a rager, just brush his comment off and continue mapling. c:
When I ever go to El Nath using Orbis tower I use the teleport at the 20th, 10th, 9th and the 8th floor.
When I reached the 7th floor I just used a nearest town scroll to make it faster.
most pros give me their accounts so i can go to nath for them...
i think you guys should do too
I noticed them but don't remember where they are so I only use them if I happen to chance across one. And you're right, pros would just use the scrolls. That kids just a meanie!
Of course it's a Demon Slayer... </3
yes i know all
and pros know this
cus real pro is pre bb and was too poor for scrolls
Don't always use the portals, I just jump down usually, and use Return Town scrolls at the 7th/8th floors.
never bothered with em
i notice it but i never bother to use it
i travel fine jumping down or cannon jumping up
and i don't go to nath often anyway
Theres no reason for a defame and cussing you out. I'd rather go down the tower manually, just to bring back old memories. I think he's kind of the weird one, knowing which maps have teleports, and he must have been having a bad day, or was just so obsessed with Maplestory that they have to try and make everyone "Pro".
He was probably trolling you. The only tele is from the 1st ->20th floor.
I have been playing MapleStory for six years. I did not know about these portals. It's OK, I'll join you in noobhood.
i just use hyper tele rock.
I had no idea there were teleports Ive always walked my way down, and thank god for the jump-down function cuz when that wasnt around it was hell to walk down that thing.
No O-o
Orbis tower changed from before. There WERE no teleports before ><
i know there's a portal but it's a pain is the butt to find ~.~
I usually just go mulung then to aqua even though it may take longer
jumping down is faster becuz its a pain looking for the circle
All the pros don't even climb.
You teleport using any of the various ways, go around through Aqua, or don't even go there.
... The pros climb up/down and use return scrolls.
I haven't even touched any of the three towers ever since SH was released. o.o
you know, i've never actually seen the portals. but i spend no time in the tower... too much effort.
what idiot uses teleporters in the tower...
while goin down you find good stuff...
coughheartrockscough
i go to em when i see em. ive been playing since around when beta ended...
rock scrolls...but only when im going up. if i go down, i just jump, cause im very lazy, but i know where the portals are lol. just ignore the annoying people who think there all that. just smile, dont say a word, and follow them lol. theyll eventually get creeped out and just leave. and if they dont, f6 them and continue to stalk them xD.
I rarely climb up the tower. i find tower -> aqua -> Herb -> Mu Lung -> Orbis is slightly faster (Total about 3.5 minutes)
Yeah those seem right. I dont remember them by number, but by layout.

Yes, but the guy is a d***. It isn't common knowledge, either, just tell him to go get some sun, see how he reacts.
@will0700: I'm glad you see the err of your ways. Now, GUACAMOLE FOR EVERYONE!
[quote=ClericBoi81]erm, not only 4th jobbers go to nath. hectors is a good training spot alternative to pq's and at lvl 50 we all go there to do zak pq and at 110 we go to lhc. oh, BTW, avocados are delicious.......[/quote]
ah, my bad, i meant like they frequently go around back and forth. hector trainers prob go down there once, grind up past hectors, and go back up to the rest of the world... good point about zak preq and lhc.
Avocados are unconditionally delicious.

@PureFighter: Get a friend.
[quote=BobR]You should have told him you LIKE to jump down, all the pros do it and he must be a noob to think using portals was cooler.
I -LOVE- it when I'm playing my Mechanic and can rocket jump up those towers..! No looking for portals for me![/quote]
This.
Portals are too mainstream.
Rocket Jump platforms
[quote=thefwangster]no, most pros would use VIP Tele Rocks[/quote]
VIP Tele rocks... nah... Hyper Tele rock is what most pros would use if Nexon wasn't so cheap ._.; Otherwise be forced to family teleport or etc.
Yes I know them but I never use them. I always forget about them and by the time I remember I already down jumped and Im too lazy to climb up.
I only KNOW the 20th and 1st floor portals, I do know there are other ones, but don't remember exactly where.
no, most pros would use VIP Tele Rocks
AHAHA any "pro" would use a return scrolll wen your at like map 10 tell the kid to BI0w his dad
hm.. I don't know much about the teleports since I don't climb the tower a lot, if I want to go down the tower, I'd take a ship from orbis to mu lung then go to herb town and then go to aqua road and walk to el nath...
Family Teleport.
Nuff sed.
< spoiled by hyper tele rock.
However, I do know that they exist. But I don't know of which floors have it.
@will0700: Really? I never got banned due to that issue. Hm... Who knows.
*doesn't climb orbis tower*

Ugh, I don't usually take the tower if I am going El Nath, so I have no clue
Dragon Blink FTW.
