No doubt that if you want to be good at Maple Story you need to pay much time on training. It is often long and tedious, and the higher your level, the more there is to do. Therefore a good place to train is helpful, just takes practice and be good.
You’d better find a place where has lots of monsters that are at least 3 to 5 lvls below you.
If your level is below 10, there will not be any monsters with low enough levels, so just train on snails and mushrooms on Maple Island.
Try doing some quests, as they sometimes give you good, rare items and they are a good break from training all day long.:)
You can join or start a guild. To start a guild you will need a lot of money, and you’ll have to go to Orbis. And you will become the master or leader if you create a guild. You can pick a logo of sorts, and distribute different titles to members. Membership in a guild helps you make friends, who can help you with questions you may have or can go on quests with you.
Go to Kerning City or Henesys in Mushroom Park and ask to join a party when you get to level 10 or level 21. Party questing is a great way to gain experience fast and is also very fun. But you can’t do Party Quest anymore after level 30 in Kerning City, in Henesys it is any level over 10.
Make your second job advancement at level 30.
Find another place to train after reaching level 31. You’ll benefit from newest patch, Vers to train until you reach levels 36 - 38, there is a new haunted house in the new town NLC, this is available to anyone after Halloween.
When you reach at lvl 38 you need to buy a ticket to Orbis from Ellinia aWhen you reach Orbis,and try to find the location of Jr. Cellions, Jr. Lioners, and Jr. Grupins. They give you a good amount of experience and drop Solid Horns. Go to Exchange Quest, in which you can get 500 experience and some items for every 100 Solid Horns you acquire.
Consider doing the Ludibrium Party Quest at level 35 although it is very low. You can do it until level 50.
And you can do Orbis PQ from level 51-70.If you don’t know how, tell your PQ members to brief you.
Make your third job advancement after you reach level 70. LOL
