Background Information:
With the influx of many new classes like Mercedes, Demon Slayer, and revamping of classes like Aran, Evan, Resistance, I've decided to make a mini guide for all who are still wondering which class to choose. And yes, I will keep this thread updated base on any job changes.
Ultimately, I hope this thread helps those that are still wondering which Maplestory class to choose. Enjoy :)

:lol: A little about myself and my mechanic: JunXMech :lol: 
I was one of the old players, starting at around 2007 with spearman, hermit, quit for around 3 years before returning during the "Big Bang" Patch, where the Resistance classes was being rolled out. I played Wild hunter, but grew tire of its playstyle, large hitbox and frailness. And I started playing Mechanic on the 1st day it was release, which was 1 month after wild hunter was released. It was something fresh, with 100% stance and a rush-mob skill right from lv10, it was an awesome feel. But it was being bandwagon badly, every where you go, there were mechanics spamming drill rush and hammer and no cool down rock n shock. I thoroughly enjoyed the gameplay, which was why I remain loyal to my mechanic when more than half the mechanic got wiped out after the chaos patch's nerf for mechanic. Throughout the patches, from leveling by hunting at werewolf, papu/zak, to Lion Heart Castle PT System, to Stronghold PT System, to current PQ system, I grew to be greatly attached to my mechanic, with its gameplay and uniqueness.
And my mech turned out to be my very first Lv200 Character in Maplestory :) On 11th of May 2012, few days before legend patch.
But of course, Lv200 isn't the only goal out there in maplestory, I will touch on that later.

:py03: The "Trick" to choosing a Class in Maplestory :py03: 

Basically, when choosing a class, NOBODY, I repeat, NOBODY can tell you which class to play.
You create a thread, list your criteria, Even if a class fits all your criteria, it doesnt mean that that is the class for you, as gameplay simply can't be describe in words at times, and differ from player to player depending on playstyle and skills and funding.

And let me repeat a very important point.
There is no such thing is a weak class, just different classes for different purpose.

And remember, Nexon(developer of Maplestory) tactic is to revamp classes on a regular basis. Meaning no matter how strong or how weak a character is, it will not be the same story after a revamp.
So, Always, ALWAYS, choose a class that you LIKE, because the gameplay doesn't change even after a revamp, understand ?
Because how strong it is, will always be relative to other classes.

And another point about maplestory is that, funding is actually the most important factor in determining whether your character will be strong or weak.
Funding can be from different source, either from trading in game, or MTS, or from your own wallet.
And of course, how you fund your character is another story.

:py27: Whats your Goal in Maplestory ? :py27:
Just another question for you all to ponder about.
Is it for Bossing ?
Is it just a class for you to chill with your friends and explore maple world ?
Is it a PVP class ?
Is it just a class that trains fast and can hit lv200 as soon as possible ?

Although there is no pure job role in maplestory, as most of the class is a mix of here and there or with some good party skill.
MapleStory is not a solo rpg, you need to party with people to play/fight strong bosses, unless you can pump few hundred K's of real $.
So know/love your role and you will play happily and sorry about the bandwagon, you can never avoid it.


Here is a nice video featuring All jobs in Maplestory.
It includes(after resistance, Legendary Heroes Revamp), Pirate/Thief, DB revamp, Phantom Release and up till Mikhail Release.
Its 40 mins long, have a nice watch, nice background music too !


Okay, After watching the video, I shall teach you how to research(LOL) on your class.


:py55: Guide to researching for a Class :py55: 


Basically, the key work is Research, Research, Research.

Basically there are a few sources.
To check for updates in maplestory:
For MapleSEA: http://maple.asiasoftsea.com/updates/ << But do note that patch note are usually not up until few days before the actual patch
For GMS/KMS: 
Orange Mushroom's Blog
shakar96 | The GMS & KMS Blog
KMS is basically around 10~12 months ahead of MSEA, so you can plan in advance if you want.
We have an "Other Maplestory Service" above our General Discussion Page here, but there isn't really an "in charge" so its quite messy.

To check for gameplay
Simply go to http://www.youtube.com/, and type something like "Maplestory Demon Slayer Lv120 Training" or "Maplestory Mercedes Solo Zakum".
But do note that people who usually post their video is because they funded their character to have high dmg and hp, thats why they are in a sense "showing off" their character, so don't be dishearten if your damage differs greatly from those in the videos.

For indepth Discussion or forums
BasilMarket's Forum << Basically a forum for GMS players, quite alot of indepth discussion going on there.
South Perry Forum

For Accurate Data and Game Mechanics
South Perry's Homepage << Yeah, south perry is still the place for that.

Another easier way to search for class discussion is basically just
Type "Maplestory Mercedes VS Demon Slayer" in your google search engine, and click on those Basilmarket links.

-Final Comparison Table will be added in the future- 

Item lost when going to Czak, is it more likely to be a prank or real ?

Well, there is a rumor that is going around recently, that items may be lost when going into Czak. 

So do you all think it is real or fake ? Does anyone knows anyone else lose any item ? 

I am bit scared to go Czak now to be honest, do not wish to lose any of my items as they are all v precious to me.

Anyway it all started from this thread:

Some points of thought:

Who is the TS of that thread ? 
A reputable person ? 
In which world ?

To all MSEA testers,

It has been almost a month since we started msea beta. We thank you everyone who has tested and enjoyed this trainer.

Please note we are working very hard on this to have more unique features and bugs fixed.
The good news is it is almost ready for the full vip release which includes the full bypass, unlimited multi and other tools

The MSEA VIP access (private sections+market+license) will be sold seperate from GMS and a lot cheaper due to smaller market and demand as stated 8 months ago. (est. about 5$) still working out the details
while our GMS VIP will be able to access both community for no extra cost.

We will extend this free version as a compensation and giveback to everyone who is patient enough waiting for this long release.

If you have any suggestions and positive feedbacks, don't hesitate to tell us.
