Maplestory 2012 Most useless skills
The year is ending and maple has added or modified some skills, however some continue to be worthless. Discuss which you believe are the worst.
I believe that Stink bomb shot is the worst. Despite Renegade, Nexon overlooked the funny little skill which only affects normal mobs.
By the time WHs begin to add points into stink bomb, they do not train on regular mobs anymore, which makes the skill, absolutely worthless.

Dark flare, steal, double stab, disorder.
shadow web was actually more useful when it did DoT before the revamp.
Now it's just... might as well just use shade splitter
[quote=xiCreate]- Triple Throw
- Doom
- Beginner skill, that party heal one?
I swear, all Beginner skills are stupid, and useless.
[b]- Meditation ( dont even know what it does )[/b]
- Seal
- Nightlord skill, something got to do with the web thing?
- Meso dropper .. ( whut LOL )[/quote]
You're kidding me right...? It adds 30 magic attack and stacks with potions ROFL
Also the +meso drop isn't worthless. The more mesos on the ground, the more you can use Meso Explosion.
smokescreen.. so annoying >_<

@Ouhai: Lol sucks to suck. Maxed Seal ftw. Nah, but I just must be used to playing lower-leveled people. And besides, there are a ton of people who are just lazy and don't have Hero's Will
ANYTHING the Mihilie or Jett uses, worst classes ever.

[quote=EruditeISBACK]The one that increases meso drop rate
lol[/quote]
meso up was amazing pre big bang not so much for mesos but if you partied noobs at hene hunting ground the pigs dropped gold coins(50mesos+) instead of bronze.
people immediately called HAX! and riots erupted to pick up the "hacker mesos" cuz fun.
Jetts.
Just Jetts. I'm allowed to say it cause I'm a Corsair.
Holy Symbol is the most useless skill in the game.
It doesn't increase the damage of your party, it doesn't weaken monsters, and it sucks once you reach Lv 200.
Basically, It's a training skill that others want, just to level faster.
L>for Holy Symbol to get replaced with a more useful skill.
Beginner heal...
[quote=Unitarity]Taunt....[/quote]
Taunt was fun. *scribble scribble scribble...THROWS KUNAI*
Seal.
Buccaneer:
Landlubber Blast. (Used to be called "Shockwave"
Stun Mastery. (This skill is pointless at bosses)
BaM:
Dark Shock (It's slow, it's different from the "triple/quad/finishing blow" series, but I would still prefer to use Finishing Blow over it.)
[quote=iceychill2]seal..? you must not pvp much. i agree with thunder spear though.
OT: i know it's been deleted for a while now, but Smart Knockback was pretty useless in my opinion. Big Bang is also meh (although it is/was nice in PvP)[/quote]
Yeah hi, this is f/p mage speaking, we only got seal at lvl 11.
Also I pvp a lot. Besides, it's still useless in pvp.
Two words: Hero's Will
Flash Jump on every class but NL's.
It was enough that shads got it.

I should execute you for saying big bang is useless. I always use it.
@above scattershot is not useless. barrel bomb is a nice move, but you can jump and shoot with SS. and there are some spots where you can't cast barrel bomb.
after 2nd job SS is useless, but during 2nd job, it's not as bad as you say.
[quote=FrozenFlameO]-facepalm- fratality curse is extremely useful
@UltaMareep: That has uses.
@TripleBladez: all those skills excluding taunt has uses.[/quote]
You honestly haven't played a NL then. Yes they have uses, but they're severely limited.
Shadow Web used to be good in PvP, but Grand Battle killed any idea of a "strategy".
Dark Flare doesn't activate when you miss or dodge with Shadow Shifter. It's a reflection skill that would be best suited for a Warrior. It's still most effective when used in a party of high HP classes where the boss spams 1/1.
Taunt is useless since it doesn't work on bosses. Pitiful range when used and slow animation. They should've made it a toggle on skill.
Purge Area takes 3-5 seconds to activate, and it doesn't work on bosses either. The range isn't that big, either. The 30% PDR would have meaning on bosses, but for training, you already kill mobs in 2-3 hits on average.
Sudden Raid just lags up anyone on the map, and is used somewhat in PvP as a finisher. Mastery isn't accounted for either, so you could hit 500k+ on one hit and as low as 10k on the next. I could kill a group of mobs much easier with Shade Split in less the amount of time.

that recovery skill from beginner tabs. As far as I know it's been one of the most useless skill since those skills exist.
I would have to say doom now that it doesnt work in pvp making it completely useless
Nimble feet.

Shadow Web, Dark Flare, Taunt, Purge Area, Sudden Raid.
Angelic Buster - Lyrical Cross
[quote=maxblog]Lyrical Cross: Using Escada's strength, increase your accuracy by 450 for 180 seconds. (max level: 15)[/quote]
Specifically because they revamped the accuracy system [b][i]way[/i][/b] after they introduced the class.
