Restarting MapleStory

I was recently hacked and lost access to my account. I'm looking to start all over again, but I am hoping to join an active guild. All my IRL friends who I had been playing with quit. I don't care which server.
Starting over on a new account.
Still deciding which class to make. Used to main Mechanic, but not sure if I can re level a new one.

After the world transfer, lots of scanians merged to windia, so either scania or windia are the most populated.

@ereckgoose: I'm glad burning is happening. Really helps motivate me to level up a new char.

@ereckgoose: My ex frequently downloaded stuff off of pirate bay.

I think that must have happened with mine as well.
It doesn't help that it was an old email and my mom told me not to use my real name when I made it. D:

Thank you. I made an AB in Scania. IGN is Saipanda.
I burned it, so it will level up faster.
Remaking all of my link mules will be tough.

@cocopuffs: Also be wary of stuff you may download. Have you tried verifying that you are owner of email?

It will not work if they changed personal info like with my email.

If you play on Scania I may be able to lend a hand depending if I don't go back to another game.

@ereckgoose: yeah it does.
I have, but no luck.
I have an authenticater for my WoW account, I'm surprised Nexon hasn't tried selling something like that.
I was dumb enough to have my email and Maple pw the same. -_-

This is the first time, I've ever been hacked.
I now made a new email and got a new anti virus program.

That sucks about account being taken over. Have you tried getting access to email?

This happened to me but the main problem with mine was using an email with crap password.

I lost my account and even got hacked twice on my 2nd account, but that was due to viruses on a borrowed pc.

@cocopuffs: Scrapyard is still good 210+. Black Deck 1 and Maze 5. The Dark World Tree maps that came out a couple of days ago might be good too (200+) but they're new, so I don't know how good they may be.

@readers: Fair enough. Though I always thought it odd that Maple doesn't offer sever transfer service, except for at random short periods of time.

Thanks for the info. Has anything changed for 210+?

@ashleyattacked: I mained Mechanic, and as far as I've played it, it has never been a very popular class.
I'll try out AB. The only down side is the gender lock, but that's not really a big deal with hair coupons and NX.
AB form can only wear compacts right?
Before all that, I have to try it out and see if I have fun with it.

@juniororeos: What is your IGN? May I buddy you?

@cocopuffs: Yep, my main is ign Safe

I love AB's. However...it seems to be a niche class so I can't really decide whether to recommend it to you or not. Maybe try it out? idk. I love it tho.

@cocopuffs: Meh, I'd say at least a little more balanced out. People do have the tendency to stick together though - so there may not be the need for a server transfer for most people. Scania would still remain very popular, for example.

Some training spots have remained the same - Gold Beach, Warrior Golems at 190+, etc. SDH at level 165+ has turned into a Starforce map and is not as effective as other maps along that level (like Road to Oblivion 4 or Detour to Oblivion 4), however with the burning field, depending on what %, it can still be quite viable. On the other hand, Moon Bunnies at 120+ - 140 has become a very popular map for that level range. So I'd take note of some of those changes - and also note what training spots work best for you rather than to strictly follow a certain guide, or follow what everyone else is doing.

@readers: If server transfers were available anytime, the worlds might be more balanced out.

There are so many jobs. I don't think training spots have changed in the last year?

I'm not too worried about playing the OP class.

I'll try a different pirate class. yar har har

@juniororeos: yeah, I'm gonna join Scania, not sure about the Evan class though

@cocopuffs: Yes, even after all the other servers merged together, possibly even all of them combined. Except for maybe Reboot.

There's plenty of jobs - and it's easier and faster to level up (given you're training in the right spots), so you can easily try out different things and switch from one class to another without feeling like too much time has been wasted. Arans and Evans have just recently gotten a revamp; they're the OP class right now in terms of damage. But do whatever you want.

@ashleyattacked: Even after the other servers merged together? LOL

Thank you! What is your IGN? Safe?
How is AngelicBuster?

I might just pick a job at random to try out, if I can't decide quickly.

Make sure you choose Scania again. It's the most populated server. We're awesome.

BL me when you do and I'll help when and where I can.
