If Maplestory had the Rebirth/Reincarnation System

Mages would be the most OP'd branch in the game! 5 Mages use Wands: Arch Mage (Fire/Poison), Arch Mage (Ice/Lightning), Bishop, Blaze Wizard, and Evan. [i][b]Six[/b][/i]Mages use Staves: Arch Mage (Fire/Poison), Arch Mage (Ice/Lightning), Bishop, Blaze Wizard, Battle Mage, and Evan. That means that mages would be able to not only use buffs, but ALSO attacks from SIX different skill trees WITHOUT changing weapons.

compare that to other weapons: 1h swords, 4 classes: Hero, Paladin, Dawn Warrior, and Mihile the Knight of Light, 2h swords, 4 classes:Hero, Paladin, Dawn Warrior, and Kaiser the Nova's Red Flame, 1h mace: 2 Paladin and Demon Slayer, 1h axe: 2: Hero and Demon Slayer Pole Arm: 2 Dark Knight and Aran the Eastern Warrior Bows: 2: Bowmaster and Wind Archer Crossbow: 2: Marksman and Wild Hunter, Daggers: 2: Shadower and Fenris the Blade Master, Claws/Throwing Stars/Knives: 2: Night Lord and Night Walker, Guns: 3: Corsair, Mechanic, and Jett the Renegade Bounty Hunter/Zen the Dragon Warrior, Knuckle: 3: Buccaneer, Thunder Breaker, and Shade. 2h Axes, 2h Maces, Spear, Hand Cannons, Desperado, Whip Blade, Shining Rod, Dual Bowguns, Canes, Soul Shooter, Katana, Fan, Musket, Long Sword, Heavy Sword, and Scepter: 1 each: Hero, Paladin, Dark Knight, Cannon Master, Demon Avenger, Xenon the Ultimate Weapon, Luminous the Mage of Light and Darkness, Mercedes the Queen of Elves, Phantom the Master Thief, Tear the Angelic Buster, Hayato the Bladed Falcon, Kanna the Spirit Walker, Ayame the Sniper, Zero Alpha, Zero Beta, and Chase the Beast Tamer, repectively

Wands top any NON mage weapon, and staves top wands! the next best thing would be Swords, 1h or 2h, 4 classes use them, and yet, staves still have a 50% lead on them, Guns and Knuckles are next best, with 3 trees, only HALF as many. Claws, daggers, 1h axes, 1h maces, polearms, crossbows, bows, have 2 each, only one THIRD as many, the remaining 16 weapons are all used only by one class, so they'd be COMPLETELY restricted to buffs, and the rebirth system would be lost on those who used those weapons

@Momijii: Sorry just had to ruin it. Anyways who cares if you could use the attacks of other classes? All that matters is the buffs, Aran + Cross over chain and HB + Paladins threaten + Heros combo and rage + all their def together = Needing a way bigger damage cap and doesn't even include other classes.

130% Crit rate, 90% Crit min, +20% Crit max, 315% TD, 55% Boss, 85% DEF, 80% HP, 150% Stats Res, 90% Ele Res, 375ish attack, CO
And any attack you want, using 2H swords would let you use Paladins attacks and Heros finishers, or use a polearm for 640% attacks from Aran and if you die somehow you could use Gung... no im kidding Gungnir's Descent is barely beaten by FBBB now =/ though if you run out of combos then it would be way better =p

If a wand and staff are the same to a magician then a one handed sword and two handed sword should be the same to a warrior maybe axes too. Its not like shooting laser blasts really matters if you hold a sword with one hand or both anyway

It has no concern for us, other than resell value.

Who cares? We'll NEVER get that system in MS anyway, so its ENTIRELY irrelevant
