Skill notes

  • Shadow Shifter: when it dodges a hit, your character smiles for a moment, and other players on the map see the dodge and the smile too.
  • Venomous Star and Venomous Stab also poison monsters that are weak to poison. Only monsters immune to or strong against poison resist it. Bosses can be poisoned too, unless the boss is immune to poison.
  • Maple Warrior does not stack with another class's Maple Warrior. The newest one replaces the old one.
  • Ninja Ambush (Night Lord and Shadower) always works, even with no monster near you when you cast it. The ninjas stay with you for 90 seconds and, every 3 seconds, ambush up to 6 monsters around wherever you are standing. The ambush damage itself is unchanged. The ninjas leave if you change maps or die, like a summon.
  • Ninja Storm (Night Lord) keeps raging around you after the cast, striking again every second for 10 seconds. It also ends on a map change or death.
  • Buff durations. Every buff whose top-level duration was between 200 and 599 seconds now lasts up to 600 seconds (10 minutes), and lower levels scale the same way, so each level still lasts longer than the one before. Cooldowns are unchanged, and buffs that already lasted longer keep their time.
  • Maple Warrior lasts 600 seconds at level 1 and 10 seconds longer for each level after that: 690 seconds at level 10, 790 at level 20 and 900 at level 30.
★
Different from the original game In MapleVerse, Ninja Ambush and Ninja Storm stay with you, buffs that lasted 200 seconds or more last up to 10 minutes, and Maple Warrior lasts 600 seconds at level 1, rising by 10 seconds a level to 900 seconds at level 30. In the original game no boss could be poisoned.

Common problems

  • The master only talks about advancement. The advancement is the row Talk about my training; quests come first in the menu.
  • The Training Center for Beginner Thieves quest shows done too early. Talk to the instructor inside the training center, not the warper at the entrance.
