About this PQ s2

===============================================================================



So you want to PQ in Ludibrium... there are a lot of things you need to learn

before you begin. First of all, you need to be at least level 35 to play the

quest (and less than level 50). Because of this, I'll assume you're already

very familiar with the Kerning City PQ, and use PQ terminology without

explaining it (track, miss, etc). But there are a lot of very big changes from

the Kerning City party quest. You now have a full hour to complete the quest,

which means you'll be waiting to get in for a lot longer than before. If you

miss, you'll be waiting another 45 minutes to try again. If your party doesn't

have a track, you'll be waiting an hour and a half at least, assuming your

party gets the track the first time another party gets in. Also, you need 6

party members this time around, 2 more than in Kerning. Lastly, the boss is

much harder, and therefore the bonuses are much better. maplestory powerleveling



===============================================================================

Getting In s3

===============================================================================



If you're forming a party you should be aware that your party should consist

mostly of level 40 players and up. You'll certainly have no problem if you

invite a few 35-39 players to your party, but too many and you'll have trouble

taking on the final boss. You should also be concerned with the diversity of

the party. A high-Heal Cleric is very highly recommended - almost essential.

Also, you need a Thief with Dark Sight (Assassin or Bandit) to complete the

quest. Bowmen are very helpful on some levels but unneccessary. Warriors excel

in this quest since most of the levels take place on small platforms. You

need a mage with teleport also.



If you're trying to get into a party, put on your best equips and go from

channel to channel advertising your availability. Don't stay too long on each

channel. Keep in mind that you'll have a much easier time getting in during

weekdays (Monday - Thursday), during the early afternoon and late at night,

EST. Also you'll have a much easier time if you play in a server other than

Scania or Bera. Once in a party, ask for your party's track. If they don't

have one and you're not prepared to wait a long while, don't hesitate to leave

and search for another party. If they do have a track, check it.



Once the other party is at stage 7, you need to start repeatedly checking

your track (Also, the other party may die at stage 5; see below). Stage 8

will probably take awhile for them to finish, but once they get into

A Crack on the Wall (the boss stage), your leader needs to start clicking

the stop-sign. Only a few seconds after they leave the boss stage, the PQ will

open!



===============================================================================

The Quest s4

===============================================================================



Stage One-

Move up and down the area, killing the black ratz. They've got a little more

HP than usual. Each kill will net you one coupon. Give them to your leader,

then have him talk to the red balloons NPC to open the portal to the next

stage. Have 2 or 3 of your party members go through the portal. The rest, wait

a moment.



Stage Two-

The 2 or 3 members who went through should go down to the second box. When

they hit it, all the members you sent into Stage Two will be moved to the

Tower's Trap. Basically it's just a mini-stage to do, but since you've got

3 or 4 other party members waiting to come through, you can do Stage Two and

Tower's Trap simultaneously. Once the 2 or 3 have been taken to the Trap, the

other members should go through the portal and beat Stage Two as usual. Both

groups need to hit all the blue boxes they come across; each one will drop a

coupon. You may need a Mage in the trap to teleport over to a difficult-to-

reach box. When both groups are done, give all 15 tickets to the leader and

have him talk to the orange balloons. Everyone go through the portal.



Stage Three-

Most of the boxes in this stage will spawn Bloctopus, which each drop a

coupon when killed. Your party should split up. Half can go down and smash

the boxes as they go. The bloctopus will fall down to the bottom area, where

you can easily mob attack them. The other half should go up and kill all the

bloctopus up there. Give all your coupons to the leader, who gives them to

the yellow balloons. Go through the portal. maplestory powerleveling



Stage Four-

When you reach this stage, everyone should drop down to the bottom. Then

work your way up. When you reach a portal (the bottom and top portals don't

do anything), mark that you went in by dropping 10 mesos or an item near the

portal. Then go in. Inside it's completely dark and there are 1 or more

monsters inside. The monsters are black so you can't see them, but every once

in awhile they will open their eyes. You can only hit them when their eyes

are open. Once you're done, leave through one of the portals in your room.

Then if there are any more unmarked portals, do one of those rooms, otherwise

go up to the balloons and wait for the rest of your party. Drop your coupons.

The leader should click the lime-green balloons to open the portal. Everybody

through.



Stage Five-

The thief should turn on Dark Sight and go down through the golems. There are

several portals. He/she needs to go through each one and collect the passes

in each room. Some contain more golems.. make sure you remain darksighted; the

golems do 8k+ damage per hit. The rest of the party, go up. Again, mark the

portals you go into. Two members should go through each portal. In every room,

climb up and jump off the side of the rope onto the chests on the side of the

room. The mage with teleport needs to take the top portal. Have him/her

teleport (or Haste jump) up into the portal. In their room, they need to

teleport directly down into their stage. Once everyone's done, they should

drop their passes to their leader, and go through the portal.



Stage Six-

At this point, someone in your party will probably announce the order to

noobies.. this is it: 133 221 333 123 111. Hit UP while standing on the

numbered barrels in that order. At the top is a portal; use it.



Stage Seven- Once in the next room, go down to the bottom. Someone in your

party will be picked to kill ratz. Every time they kill a black ratz, a

Rombard miniboss will spawn in the bottom area. A cleric should have no problem

keeping you healed. After it takes a bit of damage it'll summon block golems..

just kill them all and after every Rombard kill, tell the guy who's up killing

ratz to kill another one. Another Rombard will spawn. Be careful! Multiple

rombards can spawn if the ratz-hunter kills more than 1 at a time, making it

difficult to beat this stage. After all the coupons are collected, give them to

your leader and go through the portal. maplestory powerleveling



Stage Eight- Like the Kerning PQ, but with nine boxes. This can get tedious

and the #1 and #2 are coveted, although they're usually reliquished to the

party newbie if they're too slow. This is an example of the order, if you don't

remember: 12345 12346 12347 12348 12349 12356 12357 12358 12359 12367 12368 etc

until you get the right combination. It can get confusing after 1 and 2 start

moving, but you shouldn't have much trouble.



===============================================================================

The Boss s5

===============================================================================



Have your archer/assassin kill the ratz on the platform so its

pass drops right on the treasure chest. Alishar is summoned! Your cleric should

start healing and not stop till the end of the battle; he can't take even 2 or

3 hits from the boss. Use skills to pour tons of damage on him; his health will

get down in no time. After losing a bit of his health, he'll start summoning

Chronos on you, which are a nuisance. Kill them quick so you can get back

to Alishar, and if you're good, you can get him to the next summon-level

before he summons more Chronos. The next summons he'll make are Platoon

Chronos. These are bigger and take more damage before they go down, but your

party should be able to hold its own. About this time, if too many of your

party members have died, you'll start struggling. Alishar will constantly

Seal you or Blind you, making it impossible to mob the Chronos or hit Alishar.

You'll eventually make it to his last stage. He'll start summoning Master

Chronos, which are a real bother at this point if you're fighting the battle

on your own or with one other person. It's nearly impossible to get a hit on

Alishar unless you're a Warrior. Eventually he'll go down. Let the leader pick

up the keys he drops, and the leader will move you to Bonus.



===============================================================================

Exiting s6

===============================================================================



You have one minute to get as much loot as you can. Hitting a

box opens a cascade of mesos and items; DONT BOTHER WITH THEM unless you see

a cape, earrings, or Dew (they're worth a couple k at NPC). After a minute,

you're ejected into the conclusion stage. Go up the ladder and talk to Arturo

to recieve your prize and be sent to Eos Tower 101st Floor. Some prizes include

summon bags, elixers, ores, screws, scrolls, etc. The PQ should have netted you

40000-45000 exp total

=================================================================

1.1 - Introduction



=================================================================



The Ludibrium Party Quest is a great add-on to Maplestory. After passing level

50 I have made a guide to help people (assassins in general) learn to master

their pq abilities just as I have. This PQ is a whole different attitude

that of the Kerning PQ. With higher levels, means more powerful players and

a chance to test your newly gained 2nd job skills. You will be faced with

new stronger monsters, puzzles, more and longer stages, and stages where

teamwork is critical. Throughout these challenges, you can learn to

cooperate and work together for a quicker, cleaner PQ. maple story powerleveling



=================================================================

1.2 - What is pq



=================================================================



PQ is party quest. It is a quest that can be repeated infinite times for a

certain level range. This quest is not displayed in your quest log, and

takes place in a special group of maps that can be entered through forming

a party. There's a catch though, only one party is allowed in at a time

per channel.



=================================================================

1.3 - Requirements



=================================================================



The requirements to do a Ludibrium party quest are...



Level 35~50

Having a full party of 6

All party members are in Eos Tower Floor 101



=================================================================

1.4 - Is PQ worth the time



=================================================================



YES! a PQ is DEFINETELY worth the 30 minutes or so it takes to complete.

This is an EXTREME save in time training and money wasted on pots. to top

it all off, you get prizes from doing pq.



Is it worth the time to GET IN a pq... thats all up to your leader's

clicking.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

2.Basics of PQ

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



=================================================================

2.1 - Basic pq terms of speech



=================================================================



Since some people didnt do kerning pq much, i made this section to help

those people with pq "slang".



PQ - "Party Quest"



Looking for/Joining pq - "I want to join a party quest"

(lvl 46 sin looking for pq)



Track (noun) - "The name of a person in pq you /find so you know their stage"

(whats the track's name?)



Track (verb) - to type in /find and check the people inside's stage"

(u guys keep tracking and tell me when 8th)



Rush - To exit a party quest and get back in the same channel right away.

(If we try to rush we might miss)



Miss - Another party gets in pq and not yours.

(I saw them go in, we missed)



Solo - Kill by oneself with no assistance. mostly refering to bosses

(I'll solo 1st rombot in stage 7)



d/c - d/c simply stands for disconnect

(One of our members d/ced, go get another)



AC or Autoclicker - AC was a program that clicks automatically super fast.

IS CONSIDERED A HACK AND CANNOT BE USED NOW.

(I heard that guy has ac by using bypass)



=================================================================

2.2 - Parties



=================================================================



The Ludibrium party quest consits of a party with 6 members (the leader

counts as a member). These parties have to be with members levels 35-50.

The party must be in the same room for the leader to click the npc that

takes you in pq. You can join a party by finding people who say

"looking for pq members" and asking them to invite you. Also by you

saying "looking for pq", eventually you will get invited to a party.





=================================================================

2.3 - Going Inside



=================================================================



To enter the Ludibrium Party quest, if you are leader, have a party of 6 and

have them all be Eos Tower floor 101. Make sure they are all lvl 35-50. then

wait for your track to get to "A crack in the wall" here you need to be

ready. As soon as that party reaches Bonus, you click ALOT VERY VERY FAST.



another note... to click very fast, double click the red sign in eos 101

and move the window so the ok button is on top of the sign. then click in

that spot alot.





=================================================================

2.4 - Stages



=================================================================



Ludi pq is longer, unlike the kerning pq. This has 8 main stages, 1 boss

stage, and 2 bonus-style stages (also one exit stage for when you die).



-Stage 1 is killing monsters and collecting passes.

-Stage 2 is breaking boxes and collecting dropped passes

-Stage 3 is breaking boxes, then the boxes summon 3 blocktopus, kill and

collect all the passes.

-Stage 4 is entering darkened rooms and killing special monsters with

different defense capabilities (some magic weak some physical weak)

-Stage 5 is towers you have to climb to break boxes and collect passes

-Stage 6 is a puzzle to get from one place to another (like utah's farm)

-Stage 7 is killing weak monsters that spawn rombots then killing rombots

-Stage 8 is similar to kerning stage 4, exactly same except needs 5 members

and is harder to jump through

-Boss stage is, kill a dirty rat and it spawns the boss alishar. kill alishar,

and give keys (alishar drops) to leader

-Bonus stage is breaking boxes and collecting prizes from them.

-Determine to adventure(2nd bonus) is talk to the npc, and he gives you your

REAL prize of stuff like a scroll.



-the exit stage is when you die or have to leave during pq, you get taken here

=================================================================

3.1 - Party Reccomendations --ALERT! A "MUST SEE" WARNING IN HERE



=================================================================



I reccomend having a party of all lvl 40+. Have at least one cleric and also

one sin (you).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

READ THIS v

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There are 3 areas that are REQUIRED to do a pq.



1.A thief with dark sight to do bottom of stage 5

2.A magician with teleport to do top of stage 5

3.An assassin or bowman with maxxed range skill to summon monsters in stage 7.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

READ THIS ^

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



An assassin is GREAT because they cover both reasons 1 and 3. Then also a

cleric is great because wizards are literally useless at boss stage. clerics

cover reason 2 AND can heal the undead monsters that boss summons and heal

the party.



Best jobs for pq:

1. Assassin 40+

2. Cleric 40+

3. Bandit 45+

4. Spearman 45+ (with HB)

5. Bowmen(both types) 45+

6. Fighter 45+ (with or without rage, but preferred if over +5atk)

7. Page 45+

8. Wizard(either) 40+

9. Perma Beginners(lol. this would just be funny)



I'm not saying wizards are completely useless. They can be used in stage 5

in top portal and 4 in the top three portals if you cannot find a cleric.



A quick tip sent by reader:



It is great when a bandit who thought ahead for PQ gets involved. At first a

bandit is the slower of the two, which he is, but after five points into

haste a beautiful skill called steal is unlocked. Yes, beautiful. Yes adding

zounds of points into is a complete waste, but one point is enough to get

a 11% chance to steal an "extra ticket." Let me repeat this an "extra

ticket" this is a ticket that is taken from a living monster. No it doesn't

stop the monster from dropping one at its death too, so what you have is

two tickets from every monster. You may say "oh 11% that will take years."

I don't disagree with you, but it is a percentage making it a wild card. :(

For some strange reason I get a ticket within the first 10 hits, figures

with 11% "you will steal 1 out of every 10 hits." This is just a tip from

a bandit, I am really tired of getting down played and forlorened by every

other job.



-Dont worry dude. Everyone loves both types of thiefs for pq. Both sins

and bandits got power, which helps at Alishar, and Dark sight which helps

at stage 5. ^_^



=================================================================

3.2 - Rushing



=================================================================



Rushing has been eliminated from a fully completed pq. Since another party

can enter during bonus, you can't rush. There are 2 possible ways to rush.

The first is send 3 members out to save names o people incase you miss.

This also might eliminate some parties' tracks. Then when they least expect

it, have your leader exit and try to clik again ALOT and try to get back in.



=================================================================

3.3 - Time



=================================================================



Ludi pq gives you 1 hour to complete, so it will also take longer to do so.

This is more than enough time because an average pq takes from 30~40 minutes.



=================================================================

3.4 - Tracking



=================================================================



The best and most effective way to get a track is to remmber or record names

from previous tracks. Also, take screenshots and later /find each person in

it. After about a week after you start pqing alot, you might be able

to get a track off the top of your head =)



=================================================================

3.5 - Being Leader



=================================================================



Being The leader of a pq takes alot of responsibility. You have to be able

to click very fast to get your party in the party quest. Then you have to

be very experienced in pq to know what and what not to do/make your members do.

You are also responsible for getting the right type of members, like choosing

a cleric over a wizard. When you are in pq you must keep your party

cooperating and not fighting for spots and such.



=================================================================

3.6 - "Help someone died or d/c'ed"



=================================================================



If someone died, dont panic. A party quest might require six to enter, but

only requires 5 to do the stages. You will need 5 to do stage 8. After stage 8

any amount of people can die, except the leader and 1 person.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

4.Assassin's Edge

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



=================================================================

4.1 - Why are sins so good for PQ



=================================================================

1. They are NEEDED to actually complete a pq, unless u wanna waste 2 spaces on

a bandit + bowman 2. because they are so strong and fast, and 3.

because of HASTE!!! These will be explained individually in the next

sections



=================================================================

4.2 - Damage



=================================================================



Yes. Sins are very strong. They can be made even stronger by rich people with

better stars and claws. a lvl 50 sin could possibly do like 3k dmg! A group

of sins lvl 45+ could totally OWN alishar in about 1 minute.



=================================================================

4.3 - Accuracy



=================================================================



This is where accuracy counts. Being able to hit alishar is one of many

places where sins and bowmen triumph over all. An assassin almost never

misses alishar, and have no need for sniper potions. It's all natural

ability :)(except maybe 3x newbies)



=================================================================

4.4 - Range



=================================================================



Range is something very important in pq. Not only in boss stage but it is

used in stage 7. That stage requires max range to complete. You might

say "sure any ol bowman could do that" but read the next section.



=================================================================

4.5 - Jump attack



=================================================================



This (along wth booster) is what makes sins the absolute best at hitting

targets and not getting hit themselves. They cna jump to the target's

range, swiftly shoot a powerful pair of stars, and jump back before

the enemy has time to start attacking.

If you STILL think assassins equal to bowmen in pq read the NEXT section.



=================================================================

4.6 - HASTE!!!



=================================================================



Haste is a skill used by thiefs that makes the party move FAST! this

is why sins are loved the most. Sins get this skill higher usually

before bandits do. Add this to booster and jump attack. Sins are

already so fast, this just makes them even faster.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

4b.Assassin's unique PQ build

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



=================================================================

4b.1 - Why a different build?



=================================================================



Those guides that all say "critical first" i think of them as a

piece of trash. That is TOTALLY not the right way to go, pq or

no pq. This build here is a specialy one for an assassin to be

the best PQ'er he can.



=================================================================

4b.2 - Advantages/disadvantages



=================================================================



This build will allow you to be faster, and more liekd in parties

at lower levels. It is all great except it doesnt exactly let u

do 2k dmg anytime soon. You will stick with 1k then at level 40

or so slowly gain up.



=================================================================

4b.3 - the build



=================================================================



Level 30- 1 endure

Level 31- (u shuld lvl from 30-31 in kerning pq) 3 mastery

You end with

3 endure

20 mastery(MAX)

30 critical(MAX)

20 haste(MAX)

30 drain(MAX)

17 booster



=================================================================

4b.4 - equip-wise



=================================================================



This section explains some equip stuff for the unfunded sin

by unfunded i mean having 5m instead of 30m like most of them



at level 35 get maple claw+7 (u shuld have icys)

at level 40 get adamantium/dark avarice+7 (u shuld have 3 icys)

at level 43 get a kandayo+7(if u got the money only)

at level 45 you should have tobis and perhaps a lower attack w/g

at level 50 you should have a 35 attack any color slain

-and a 4 atk w/g if u can afford (at least 1 tobi too)



at level 55 i had a 35 slain, a 3 atk w/g

as for stars. have 1 tobi, 1/or2 icys, and about 5 kumbis

if u want instead get 3 kumbies and get some mokbis/tops

so u dont run out too much



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

5. Stage Guide

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Just a quick note, this guide is from an assassin's point of view, and

is how to do pq with an assassin.(in this guide, lets pretend u'r the only

thief here so no fighting for spots)



Also, for full understanding, follow the guide in order.

=================================================================

5.1 - Stage 1 --ALERT! A "MUST SEE" WARNING IN HERE



=================================================================



YAY! you got in pq. now first of all DON'T MOVE! read the following.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

READ THIS v

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

DO NOT! I MEAN DO NOT CLICK THE TOY SOLDIER THAT'S IN PQ! Clicking him will

make you exit pq. and just WHO would want that?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

READ THIS ^

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Ok, lets begin. First of all, use whatever haste you have, booster, and a

warrior pill. Now go up the tower. Kill these ratz and dirty ratz around you.

You will notice, they are stronger, have more hp, and give more exp. Once all

the enemies are dead, all the party members should give all the passes to

the leader. Then arrange who will go to the next stage first (2 people) to

to tower's trap(see stage 2). Let's say this time, you and some guy are

selected to go.

5.2 - Stage 2



=================================================================



Here, you and another person have entered (see stage 1). Make your way slightly

lower to the 2nd blue box from the top. Break that one. You will be sent to

"Tower's Trap". There, give an ok to go to your members through party chat.

Head up the tower and break the boxes to get the passes. Head out and give the

passes to your leader. Here your leader will click on the baloons and open the

portal to the next stage, enter it.



=================================================================

5.3 - Stage 3



=================================================================



This time you start near the middle of the map. First haste your members and

either head up or down. Up will require about 2 people. The bottom will require

3-4 people. Break the boxes to summon 3 bloctopus. Kill them to obtain tickets.

The top part will have about 3-4 of them per floor, while the bottom will have

at the very bottom, 9 of them (sins arent good with big mobs). After all of the

enemies have been eliminated, give the passes to your leader. Then the leader

clicks on the baloons to open the portal to the next stage, go in.

Here, there are 5 portals. EXCLUDING the VERY top and VERY bottom. the top 3

portals are for a mage to do. Those monsters in there ae weak to magic but darn

strong to....everything else These monsters have sorta sad eyes. The bottom 2

portals are resistant to magic, but physically are weak. These monsters have

sorta mad eyes. The 4th portal has 2 monsters. This means there are 6 passes

in total. Give your pass or passes to the leader and contine to the next

5.5 - Stage 5 --ALERT! A "MUST SEE" WARNING IN HERE



=================================================================



Here is one of the places where being a sin is critical to doing a PQ. First

of all, haste your party members, then head near the rope you see right when

you start.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

READ THIS v

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

DO NOT GO DOWN THIS ROPE YET! Those down there are no ordinary king block

golems. They are indestructible, doing a damage of OVER 7000! NOT A TYPO!

First, go into dark sight and then go down. enter the portal you see.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

READ THIS ^

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You have entered "tower's Maze". Here, you will find several floors, each

containing a few king block golems. The only way to make it through is with

dark sight. Use dark sight to dodge the golems and then reach the safe floor.

Break the box and collect the passes. Then go in dark sight again and head

up past the golems. Repeat this process until you are at the top and have the

last pass. You should finish with 4 passes. Head out the portal on top and

dark sight past the beginning golems. then head safely near the baloons and

give your passes to your leader. The leader will then click on the baloons

and open the portal to the next stage.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Amazing tip:



when a cleric or 2 manage to jump down off the rope to get to the platform

below, and an hp-pure page/fighter with maxed power guard stays on the rope

just below the king block gollems, having the clerics spam heal him, he can

touch the King block gollems to death, killing them with his Power Guard.



-hb would help too, and a pure hp fighter would do best, they have more hp



thanks for the tip michael

5.6 - Stage 6



=================================================================



This stage gives nothing and has no monsters. It is simply a puzzle with

a never-changing combination. Go on top of the box with a number and

press up to use the box. The code for them is...



133 221 333 123 111



Once up top, just enter the portal and head to stage 7



=================================================================

5.7 - Stage 7



=================================================================



(haste + booster recommended)

More monsters await in stage 7. Head up the rope you see to the left. From that

spot, slowly turn right to the tip and kill the first ratz there. Then head up

and be ready to kill the dirty ratz that is there. Once the party has killed

the first rombard kill the dirty ratz. Then head to the third floor. When

the party finishes off the 2nd rombard, kill the bloctopus to spawn the 3rd

and final rombard. As soon as the bloctopus dies, head quickly down to the

bottom of the map and help kill the rombard. Jump attack to avoid the magic

attack. Beware, rombard summons block golems when it is weak. After all passes

are obtained by the leader, he/she clicks the baloon to enter the next stage.

=================================================================

5.8 - Stage 8



=================================================================



This is the final main stage. Very similar to Kerning PQ's 4th stage. The

difference is this puzzle needs 5 people to complete. Snowshoes are recommended

for this stage, especially if you are number 4 or 5. Jumping is pretty tricky

here and you will need to learn how to pwn this stage by experience. The boxes

are aligned like this

Most parties go in a certain order, which is self explanitory. Here is the list

of possibilites in order from what you should try first to last.

Yes I know what you must be thinking. That there are SO MUCH

combinations, but when you play through it, it takes less than it looks like.





this is how its done if you dont already know.

people get on 1/2/3/4/5



the person on 5 moves to 6



then he/she moves to 7, and so on.



once he/she has reached to 9 and the combination was invalid, the "#4 person"

moves to 5, and the last person moves to 6



once you're down to 1/2/3/8/9, the #3 goes to 4, the 8 goes to 5, and the

9 goes to 6, making it 1/2/4/5/6.



the pattern continues. once its down to 1/2/7/8/9, the #2 goes to 3.

This is complicated to read & learn and must be personally seen/done.





Once you get the right combination, the portal to the boss stage will open.

Enter it.



=================================================================

5.9 - Crack In The Wall (Boss)



=================================================================



This is the "hardest" part of Ludi PQ, the boss, Alishar. Before you do

anything, make sure you are ready, then kill the dirty ratz that is in the

platform whree the box is. Let the pass fall on the box and Alishar will be

summoned. Make sure you are hasted, have booster, used a warrior pill/pot, and

a sniper pill if you are below level 40 just incase. When it has been summoned

nonstop jump attack with lucky seven. Do a back attack when it goes near you

will be out of its magic attack range. As it is weakened, it will summon

chronos, then platooon chronos, then master chronos. Keep attacking alishar

and use cure pots when you are cursed. I don't recommend all cure pots, for

that is a waste. Instead, in path of time, buy holy waters and eyedrops.

When Alishar dies, let your leader get the keys he drops. Then he/she will

talk to the baloon and be sent to bonus stage.



A quick tip sent by a reader:



Stand on the ledge where the NPC baloon is and attack from there nonstop.

He also noted, Do not count on a cleric for heal. ALWAYS have pots with

you. A cleric can get cursed, and if he/she uses magic guard, his/her

MP will run out very quickly.



-I agree with the cleric part. I personally think most clerics run away

from Alishar when he gets close. I've never depended on a cleric and

always used pots i get from determine stage.






and another:



Put cure potions on quickslot or a slot where its NEAR YOUR ATTACK SKILL

SLOT. Thats saves time.

like I put Lucky Seven on X, put it on c. hav it

near the button. bring at least the amount of pots for LV4X.

100 White potions

150 mana pills.

Aviod attacking chronos by all means of jump shoting. They are pretty

annonying even you stand the top part where the sin shoots star for the rat.

700 Damage and 150 damage extra?



-o_O most global players have different key sets than u msea guys. and using

cure pots so quickly is not so urgent, because u almost never get cursed.

I'd say the best way to defeat alishar IS jump attack but its backwards

jump attack specifically. It's pretty complicated but assassin players

should understand...When u do a jump atk(backwards) wait until the peak

of the jump to attack (with booster of course) this is the technique used

to attack tall monsters in a mob or the farthest away in a mob. this will

probably leave u not being able to move for half a second on the ground

but since its a BACKWARDS jump attack it keeps you out of the enemy's

attack range.

The Guide To Make A Ton Of Mesos

This is my first guide that I ever made so it might suck a little : ) Enjoy

anyways.



1) Introduction to the guide



2) So, you wanna make MESOS???

2.1) Making mesos by merchanting

2.2) Making mesos by hunting

2.3) Making mesos by some other ways cheap maple story powerleveling


3) Tips

5) Credits

1) Introduction to the guide

Are you JEALOUS of all those pros getting like millions of mesos and showing

off by trading and showing you their millions? Will, you can show your own

million mesos by reading this guide for mesos!

2) So, you wanna make MESOS?

Well, do you? The key to making mesos is patience. If you don't have much

patience, you can't really get a lot of money. For example, if you got an

above average Mithril pole arm that you are selling, but no one wants to buy

it yet, you should wait. If you succesfully sell it, which is like 100k for

an above average one, that's a good start. But if you give up and NPC it,

you only get 25k! that is a 75k difference! Patience is the key to a good

merchant. cheap maple story powerleveling


2.1) Making mesos by merchanting

Well, like metioned before, you need patience!!! PATIENCE!!! Yes, you do!

Also, you have to be smart. For example, getting a lot of stuff people need

like leather. Leather can be very useful for building equipments. If you NPC

leather for 100 mesos each, it's not going to be very good. Instead, you

should try selling the leathers to players for I'd say 150-200 mesos each.

Even though it only seems like you are making a 50 mesos profit, if you sell

leathers in large quantities, you will make a very large amount of profit!!!!!

You can also sell screws for 2k each and ores can sell for a lot too! Fame is

also a nice thing to sell, priced around 2-7k depending on the player, Making

profits off noobs are also good =D but I will get to that later...

2.2) Making mesos by hunting

This way is a lot harder than merchandising because you acually have to kill!

This part is more about saving mesos than earning them, but i guess they're the

same thing really 0_o! To save money here, you should fight monsters that you

can kill in 1-2 hits CONSECUTIVELY!!! That means you ALWAYS 1-2 hit the monster

and not 3, because that would be a waste of pots and time!!! Also, use your

mana wisely. If a monster takes you 1 maxed Magic Claw to kill (20MP) and you

can consistantly kill the monster with 3 minimum lvled energy bolts, (6MP) and

that is 20 mana versus 18 mana. That way, you are conserving 2 mana! Even if

you think 2 mana is nothing, wait till you hear this! You regenerate mana every

10 seconds and let's say you cast a spell every second. In 10 seconds, that's

20 mana! Wasted! If you regenerate 40 mana each time, you will only heal 20

instead! And let's not forget about Magic Guard (if you're a mage)! But if you

cast 3 seperate spells, that will take up 3 seconds to cast and and you will

cast 3 spells in the 10 seconds and 6 x 10 is 60MP and 20 x 10 is 200MP!!! You

kill less enemies this way, but you save a lot more money. cheap maple story powerleveling



Also, hunt for monsters that have the most expensive NPC drop because you

want to spend too much time advertising to sell stuff.



2.3) Making mesos some other ways



Well, this part includes quests and some creative ways to make mesos. I guess

I'll talk about quests first... well. here are some quests that are pretty good

for a beginner.



lvl 1-10 (BTW, I skipped a few quests that I didn't think was good)



(lvl 10) Fixing Blakcbull's house

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Req: 30 branches and 40 firewood



Prize: Steel Shield or Red Triangular Shield



This quest is very worthwhile because you can get a Red Triangular shield which

is 25k! Do this quest when you are lvl 20 or buy the firewood for 15 mesos each



(lvl 10) I Need Help On My Homework!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Req: 10 slime bubble, 30 tree branch, 30 squishy liquid



Prize: 25 Blue Potions + 250 exp



You can do this quest when you are lvl 10 and this quest is the 2nd best quest!



(lvl 10) The Reason Behind the Mushroom Studies

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Req: 40 Orange Mushroom Caps, 10 Mushroom Spores



Prize: 25 Red Potions + 300 exp



I think also a fairly quest to do because this is very easy and you can get 25

pots which is saving 1250 mesos!



(lvl 10) I'm bored

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Req: 40 squishy liquid, 40 tree branch



Prize: 25 red potion, 15 blue potion + 250 exp



To me, this is the Best beginner quest. It's fairly easy and you get a pretty

good prize for such easy monsters to kill and easy questions to answer!



Here are some or easy ways to get money.



Meso Magnet FUN!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



a) Leave your computer on for the whole night and go to Henesys Hunting grounds

or any other place where monster drops land on the platform you are standing on

Make sure you are in the first Hunting Ground. Go on a haystack where there

are monsters below. For this you need meso magnet. Just stand on a haystack and

go to bed. When you wake up... Voila! a few hundred thousand mesos! My friend

once got 850k doing that!



Looting!



b) This is a very easy thing to do. All you have to do is go to a map where

there is a pro killing monsters and not bothering to pick up the drops. All you

have to do is run around picking up his items! It's better to have Meso Magnet

here, but not a must-have item.



Party Stealing! (not recommended)



c) Make a party with some good Maplers and let them kill for you. This is a bad

version of looting. WARNING: YOU MIGHT GET DEFAMED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



3) Tips



Try not to beg, it will only make people defame you and call you noob. Only beg

if you know that person you're begging for or he's your buddy/guild member. I

just can't say this enough... have PATIENCE! Don't be impatient. Also, don't

play drop games!!! You will lose at least once and you will be PISSED! That

once happened to me before and boy did I get PISSED! I actually reported that

dude and I got suspended for a while :-P. You should set up a free market stall

so you can do something else while waiting for an item to sell. And here is my

last tip for you... go into parties with hermits or ChiefDits, they can use a

skills that makes enemies drop more mesos or drop mesos more often. Well, I

guess that wasn't the last one, make good friends! Get friends that will help

you when your broke and party with you and go hunting. Never get a friend that

will just leech off you items and beg for potions and mesos. Also, help noobs

in need. If you even giv them 100 mesos, they will love you. BTW, i don't scam

noobs. I was kidding about making profits of noobs. They aren't that stupid

you know! Some may have friends that can kick your butt and mass defame you!!!

Never try to take advantage of ANYONE! It is an inhumane thing to do! WEll, I

guess that's all the tips.



4)About Me



WEll, I started Ms a while ago, with a sin. That account was screwed because

it had like 9 Str and 7 Int. I deleted that character and made a Mage. The mage

wasn't perfect, it had 5 Str and 4 Dex, but I continued that charcter and got

pretty good with it. After my mage got to lvl 30 (ice/lightning), i started a

sin character. That character wasn't perfect either :"( but i used him anyway.

I next got my mage to fund my thief and i got it 2 mokbis. I played my thief

till lvl 13, that's when the Aniversery stuff came out I went back to my mage

to hunt for maple lama, maple claw, maple sword and red present. I didn't get

much except an above average Mithril Pole arm, green bennis chainmail, Brown

Jester (above average :-D) and Green Matty. Overall, it was pretty good lvling

and I didn't have to pay much for pots. Right now, I'm still hunting for those

items so if you have them, please contact me at www.omgitssheen@yahoo.ca or my

Ms account: FaetalMage, IKSEDYOU or LEETKser.

Charizard's Ludibrium PQ Guide

About Ludi PQ
--------------

Well, lets get on. Ludi PQ can be done in Ludibrium , at the 101th floor

of Eos TOwer. As this PQ is new in MapleSEA it can sometimes be very crowded

once someone gives away a free track. This PQ consists of 10 stages and

needs

6 members to enter. Once you are in, before you reach the boss stage, no

less

then 1 person is allowed to die or dc or you cant do Stage 8.When you reach

boss

stage, any amount of people is allowed to die except a party leader and a

member.

If more then 1 person dcs or die during a PQ before boss stage, your leader

has to

click on the toy soldier to get out and restart the PQ again.

PQs in Ludibrium can be done between lvl 35 to 50. Its going to be

fun-filled!

===========================================================================

Getting In

-----------

Make sure your leader can MC very fast on the Red Sign. Mc actuallys stands

for manual click so those of you who plan to be PQ leaders, u have to know

the consequences of being a leader in charge of a party as sometimes if you

do not have a track to get into pq, you may have to MC all the way.

SOmetimes,

your hands can become quite tired while MCing or you feel like your finger

is

breaking. So think twice becoming a party leader.



Most important thing to get in is a track. Most people who become party

leaders

may not want to mc all the way. Once you have gotton a track, keep /find

-ing the

person till it reaches the last stage , A crack in the Wall. At this stage,

your

leader should starting Mcing. Gently encourage your leader and if you are

lucky

you may get into PQ. buy maple story powerleveling



Don't ever use an AC to get into PQ! AC is a short form of Auto-Click. As

maple

story now has a nProtect, GameGuard,most people cant use AC anymore. But,

some

people still can. Why is that so? It is believed that people either change

the

profile of the GameGuard so they can use hacks OR it could be that people

uses

ByPass to hack.So, never use hacks in maplestory or even AC. They are hacks

and

are easily seen by people. YOu may end up being reported and banned from

playing

maple story for a long period of time. So beware if you are going to use AC.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

================================================================================

Stage 1

-------

THis stage consists of fighting. Once you successfully get into PQ, go up

and

immediately start fighting the Ratz and Dirty Ratz. All of them should drop

a

pass. Hand them to your leader before you enter stage 2. You need 25 passes

to

finish this stage so if your leader takes too long to go to where you are to

take

the passes, keep it with you as if it is left on the ground for too long, it

will

disappear, making the PQ a failaure.Once you cleared the stage,the leader

should

talk to the balloon in this stage. Enter the portal to stage 2 once you see

the

word Clear! on your screen. buy maple story powerleveling

Once

you have gotton all the passes, hand them to your leader and he/she will hit

the 2nd box and you will all be teleported to another stage where you have

to

hit even more boxes. This stage is still Stage 2,but called Tower's Trap.

so).When you

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Stage 8

--------

When you enter this stage, you will realise it is almost similar to that of

Kerning PQ. the boxes are arranged in this order :



12

345

6789



As there are 9 boxes, you may take a longer time to do this stage. Do not

ever

on Haste in this stage as you will have a harder time trying to get on the

boxes.

Some numbers like 6,7 and 8 are quite difficult to reach. The only way to

reach them

is to, example : jump from the floor to number 3 then fall on your right

side to

reach number 7. Or Jump on number 4 from the ground and drop to your left

side to

reach number 6 or drop to your right side to reach number 8. Pretty

simple,Huh?



The orders go like this :

12345,12346,12347,12348,12349,12356,12357,12358,12359,12367,

12368,12369,12378,12379,12389,12456,12457,12458,12459,12467,12468,12469,12478,12479,12489

,12567,12568,12569,12578,12579,12589,12678,12679,12689,12789 and maybe even

on and on and

on..



When you have gotton the correct combination, a portal will open and you can

enter it

to get to the last stage.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A Crack in the Wall

--------------------

When you enter this stage, which is often known as Stage 9 or last stage, on

all your

skills like: example, Haste,Meditation or even accuracy pill.



When you are done, an assassin or bowman with a long range shoot the ratz on

the

platform that is difficult to reach. When it drops a pass, it must come in

contact

with the box on that platform to summon Alisha. If it fails to do so, you

are doomed!



When Alisha is summoned, immediately start fighting it. If you have a

cleric,

he/she must start healing non-stop! It can be very troublesome

as it will keep cursing or blocking your attacks from being used. Use all

Cure potions

to get rid of those and quickly get back to fighting. WHen its HP lowers, it

will

first start summoning Chronos, followed by Platoon Chronos then Master

Chronos.

When you have killed it, your leader should pick up the key it dropped and

talk to

the balloon to get to bonus stage.

picking

up anything unless it is pots or Napolean. Napoleans are very common in this

stage.

You can also find other things like earings.ect. When your timer hits 50

seconds,

anybody outside can enter PQ so if you want to chiong, when you get in,

immediately

leave this stage, collect your prize and go and talk to the Red SIgn

quickly. If you

decide to stay, it is alright too.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Prizes

--------

When you leave bonus stage, talk to a man to receive your prize. Once you

have done

so, you will be teleported outside to Eos Tower : 101th Floor again.

Some Tips

---------

- Be polite to your party members, if you are rude, the leader of the party

may kick

you or people may leave your party.

Introduction



Hello!! It's me again. Nope not the "masqued" stranger but Whytemasque. As you would all know, the Party Quest (PQ) requires you to be at least level 21 and must not exceed level 30 to do (If you are in the middle of PQing, and you level to 31, you can still continue). This quest will help you to level in no time. It'll also help you to get items that can maybe...just maybe be sold for millions. The PQ area is located at Kerning City, near the center of the map. (The place where you can see 3 drain pipes) cheap maplestory mesos


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Getting Started

Okay. Firstly, get yourself into a party of 3 other people. That would mean that there would be a total of 4 people in your party. If one of your party members is offline or at a different place (etc. channel, potion shop), they will not be considered as part of the party. Once you have your party all at the same place, or at least the same map, your party leader will click on Lakelis. Not only once, but many times. As the quest goes by the rule 'First come, First serve'. Do not expect to go in immediately after you have found a party, you might have to wait for many hours before you get in. cheap maplestory mesos


Track is a term that is used for finding people. In this case, track is to find out what stage is the current party inside the PQ at. Once you've got a name, just type /find (and then the name). Since there would be a lot of people at the PQ area,

Its really quite hard to see who went in, try writing all their names down. Don't need to be neat, just scribble (DON'T DO THIS FOR YOUR EXAMS). You can also try taking a screenshot of the people at the sewage area. I got this idea from sinister34. Still email me if you still have anymore ideas.

Now AC stands for 'auto-clicker.' Try only using this for PQ as it can get you banned (Botting). But many people there alove to cheat so they use 'auto-clicker'. Right now, I am unsure if 'auto-clicker' is allowed in the game or not. I've heard that the newer versions of it are able to work in the game. However, please do not ask me where to download it as I do not use that 'super cheat' program.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Stage 1

Congratulations! You have finally gotten after a while. In the first stage, you must go to the right until you see Cloto. Talk to her and she will ask you a question. You would then have to kill Ligators, to get the coupons, situated at the top (just climb the ropes and you will see them). Questions are: cheap maplestory mesos



Level to become Magician (8 coupons)

Level to become other job (10 coupons)

DEX needed to become a thief or an archer (25 coupons)

STR needed to become a warrior (35 coupons)

INT needed to become a magician (20 coupons)

EXP needed to Level 2 from Level 1 (15 coupons)

This information is from hiddenstreet itself. Please don't sue me. Anyway, once you have collected the correct amount of coupons, talk to Cloto again and she will give you a yellow pass in exchange of your coupons. Note that you must have the correct amount. No more nor less.

Once all of your party members have done the exchanging, drop the passes and pass them to your party leader. Your leader will click on Cloto and a big "CLEAR" sign will appear on your screen. Go through the portal and then to the next map. One more thing, your party leader does not need to hunt anything if they don't want to. Before you shout and curse them, remember that they got you in this and they aren't slackers. If you ask them to help you with the coupons, they would most probably help.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stages 2-4



For these stages, it's similar to a guessing game. You must guess the correct combinations to get through. Your party leader will click on Cloto and she will indicate to you whether it's right or wrong.

Stage 2 is a walk in the park. However do note that you cannot hang at the bottom of the rope. Go a little higher, at the top of the rope.

In stage 3, there will be 5 platforms, each platform holding bunnies arranged in the 1, 2 ,3 ,4 ,5 order. Go in combinations :

1-2-3, 1-2-4, 1-2-5, 1-3-4, 1-3-5, 1-4-5, 2-3-4, 2-4-5, 3-4-5.

For stage 4, it's pretty much the same thing, just that there will be six barrels. So guess the correct combinations.

1-2-3, 1-2-4, 1-2-5, 1-2-6, 1-3-4, 1-3-5, 1-3-6, 1-4-5, 1-4-6, 1-5-6, 2-3-4, 2-3-5, 2-3-6, 2-4-5, 2-4-6, 2-5-6, 3-4-5, 3-4-6, 3-5-6, 4-5-6.

Always go in numerical order unless you have supernatural powers to tell what the combination is. Once you have gotten the combination, go through the portal and to the final stage.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Final Stage

In the final stage, you will have to kill 3 curse eyes and 6 Jr. Neckis. Your leader will collect the yellow passes. Once you are done, its time to kill the King Slime. It's a much bigger version of a Slime. It can summons 3 normal slimes when it is about to die, and can do a skill called earthquake, which can take a whole lot of your HP out. However, in order to avoid that massive ton of damage, just jump at the right time. Just be sure you have potions to accommodate the damage. Once it is defeated, you can kill the slimes if you want though many people say that it will give you bad items, which I don't think so. Just ask your leader to get the pass and off you guys go. Pass all the yellow passes to your leader if you have collected any. Your leader will click on Cloto and the portal will be open. Note that you can't go into the portal. Just click on Cloto and she will congratulate you and will enter the bonus stage.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Bonus Stage



This is a place where people say that maplers always camp, as in stay inside for very long. Try not to do it. Just kill the monsters inside for maybe 2 to 5 mins and wait for the spy's singnal. More of that below.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
QUICK

QUICK does not stand for anything. It's just a word. Ask one of your party members to come out in the bonus stage and ask him/her to go outside and write down the names of the people outside. A minimum of 2 members (including the leader) must stay inside the map. Ever since the introduction of the ability to pass the leader title to someone else, it makes everything easier and increases your chances of getting in again. Let your party leader pass the title to someone else (prefably one that has a fast computer) and him and another member will stay inside the map. Once the actual leader says he is ready, quickly come out and pass him the leader title as fast as you can.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What if someone dies inside?

Well it really depends who dies in the middle of the PQ. As long as it's not the leader then you can carry on. Your leader will take over the position of the guy that died. But if your leader dies, all of your party member will be immediately sent out of the PQ. And that would be a total waste of effort and time. So make sure your leader has enough pots to stay alive. And if two people die inside the PQ (excluding your leader), you will get kicked out too. Just don't be too happy when your party member dies. However, if the party leader disconnects, the leader title will be passed on to someone else, so no worries.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Being a RESPONSIBLE leader



Don't be too harsh on any new PQ-er. He or she does not really know how PQ-ing is like. Just survive with that person for maybe 1 or 2 rounds of PQ and the person should be fine. Be patient with that person. Refrain from saying things like "Go away you stupid retarded noob." It's very hurting for that person. This would demoralize that person and well, maybe not daring to do PQ again. I mean come on, everyone makes mistakes. DON'T EVER think that warriors are lousy. I hear people say, "Don't pick warriors. They are lousy. Always miss." Just bear with them. After all everyone needs training INCLUDING WARRIORS. When you, the leader, is in the PQ, be organized. Don't let people get a bad impression of you. Be kind and nice to them and they will like you.
