True test of Old School Maplers

You have to be real real REALLY old school.

To remember the trick where you could climb up that rope onto the platform in henesy training grounds.
Without being sent to the next map, as long as you had some pet milk saved on a key and spammed it as you climbed up.

Only 1 out of 100 maplers should/can claim to remember this far.

@Edit: So It turns out my first quest completed was in 2007. So I'm not as old skool as I thought.
All the old quests completed are under the Before-tktktk tab. I think It was mai's training.

And it was pet food and henesy hunting grounds sorry. My mistake. Also I remember when they added the extra map at the end and I found my so called parents.

I remember no NLC, and Ant Tunnel was the place to be. Specially for Clerics <3
Remember the portal in Sleepywood that took you to Z-Lupins and if you went further to Golems? Fun times.
But you guys remember when you had to roll for stats.
Mages either had to have a miserable Maple Island or add Str into their build.
Thieves also had it kinda bad too.

[quote=RevampPlease]At windraiders too! Spamming pots saved me so much aggravation lol.[/quote]

For Windraiders, you could just spam booster. But at Typhons, when you hit the bottom, you had to walk to the hole, so you had to use something that would allow you to spam it while walking, hence potions

And at orbis ship in the middle of the ladder, I remember sitting in the middle feeling like a badass while everyone else fell down.

Orbis boat, to walk across the bottom, just held down the hotkey for pet food. Yes, I remember this.

Ha ha, how nostalgic. i can still remember it. i used to use pet food on my pet while climbing the rope in henesys hunting ground. my friend told me about it and did it himself. when i saw it i instantly asked him how to do it because in those days you would be grinding for so long you need something else to do.

I think the best example of being a veteran mapler is knowing what the old GM sign looked like.

i remember hh1 was crowded up there with people who were the "pros"
same with at hene market
where people 70+ would get on their pigs and jump for the items people dropped
(even though they could never reach them)
Night lords were the only ones who could reach an item (with the 2nd jump)
and then once pirates came out, they killed it all

Just spam red pots and watch the 'pros' kill green mushrooms. But back then the res was only 800 x 600 so you couldn't see em from up top...but meh.

I remember that, and when there was no 4th job, 99k DMG cap (even though that's not too old), aqua road was closed off, ludi didn't exist yet, there was no pirate, heck even when there were no thieves.

OLD old school mapler. Idrc tho.

dont remember how this one went but to get up the rope completely without activating the portal to the next map was like something where you needed to spam pet pots/normal pots while going up

other then bet no one remembers how the meso explosion hack went... something capable of max dmg...
