Aran Complete Quests List


KMS Aran 1st Job Quests Pt. 1 – Available in HD


This takes place right after you advance at level 10. I said in my Becoming an Aran videos that you could treat them as the first part of these quest videos.

Once you advance Lilin/Ririn will ask you to go and speak to the trainer whose name translates to Puoh. He is 2 maps left of town in the training grounds. This is pretty much identical to what the Cygnus trainer gets you to do at 10, apart from you get a much better reward at the end. First you must go in and kill 30 Slimes, then 30 Orange Mushrooms and finally 30 Pigs. I lagged and opened the chat box twice at the end of these quests so I apologize for that but it shouldnt ruin anything. By the end of this you will be level 13 without putting in much effort at all. You will also be rewarded with the skill Combo Ability. Which I demonstrated in another video, Im sure youve all seen it of course. :P
You receive a little animation every time you acquire a new skill form a quest. It’s 2 pole arms crossing over your head. I slowed it down and showed it again so you could get a better look even if the level up covers it a little. I think it’s a nice little effect. But you will most likely miss it since the chat box covers it by default lol.

Once you are done with that go back and talk to Lilin/Ririn. She will give you a scroll (not shown in video) to take to an NPC in Lith Called Tru. So of to Lith Harbour it is! To leave Rien head all the way right from town and you will find the Harbour. Talk to the NPC there to ride the whale (lol) to Lith. This is the only way to and from Rien.

When you arrive in Lith head to the new building that is located at the top right of town. You can’t miss it. Inside is Tru. Talk to him and complete the quest. This guy is basically the new Nineheart. You will be coming back and reporting to him a lot. I suggest you buy a good number of Lith return scrolls for convenience.

You will immediately receive a new quest from him. He will ask you to go and speak to Teo. Teo wants 10 Green/Blue/Red Snail Shells. This is very simple especially if you can find a few Mano’s to kill but good luck with that on launch day. After you get 10 of each report back to Teo then back to Tru.
Next he will ask you to go talk to Bruce in Henesys. He will also give you an envelope. If you talk to the newly added Taxi you can use that note to ride there for free.

*Character switch, I will be using this character from now on.*

When you arrive there talk to Bruce and he will ask you to get 30 Mushroom cones. I wonder what part of a Mushroom they drop from? Perhaps it is their unmentionables. I tested this but didn’t film it, you can kill orange mushrooms as well to get the cones. I chose Cynical Mushrooms because I prefer that map since it has a good pure spawn. When you get all 30 return to Bruce and he will then want you to get 30 pig tails. These drop from normal Pigs and Ribbon Pigs, so head of to your favourite spot and collect them. Return to him for his final proper quest. He wants you to kill 50 Cynical Mushrooms and collect a Doll from them. This is just like the Cygnus quest, a few of the Aran’s quests are similar to the Cygnus ones. Once you have killed them and collected the Doll come back for your reward. He will then ask you to go back and see Tru, so head back there and get another small exp reward.

The Next quests begin at level 18, you should be around level 15 by now so go level up some more then come back and see Tru. I will continue on from here in the next part of this video.


KMS Aran 1st Job Quests Pt. 2 – Available in HD



Aran Level 18+


Once you level up to 18 go and speak to Tru, he will have a new quest for you. These next chain of quests take place in Ellinia so head there, Find Rowen the Fairy and talk to her. She will want you to kill 25 Sickly Green Mushrooms and collect a Doll. Yes I did say Sickly. Just like Cygnus added the Cynical Mushrooms Aran has added 3 new monsters. The first being these Sickly Green Mushrooms. You should head over to the Tree Dungeon to kill these. Killing normal Green Mushrooms will not count towards the quest total. After you have completed it head back to Rowen and get your Next quest. This one is really simple, all you have to do is talk to the new NPC located outside the Green Mushroom Tree dungeon. You will have already seen him. His name translates to Talking Tree which is quite appropriate. Go talk to him then head Back to Rowen and she will ask you to Speak with Tru, head over to him and complete the quest.


Aran Level 19+


You are not quite done with Rowen yet. Head back there and get her next quest. She wants you to kill 100 Green Mushrooms and collect 1 Doll. It’s pretty similar to the first quest she gave you. But if you think that is unimaginative wait for the next quest. This time both kinds of Green Mushroom count so it shouldn’t take long. Head back to her and get your reward. You are given 10 All Cures. This may seem strange given that you are such a low level but you will have to fight Francis later on and he does like to Seal you. For Rowen’s next quest you have to kill 100 Green Mushrooms and collect a Doll. Yes it is exactly the same as the one you just did so go back and repeat it all again. The reward is better this time so at least that’s something.


Level 22+ *Skill Quest*


The next quest begins at level 22. It’s important so the moment you level you will get a quest light bulb appear above your head. If you are in the middle of something important then finish it off now, as you will be teleported somewhere else. Also it’s a good idea to have a return scroll on you.

You will be contacted by a mysterious figure, hmm whoever could that be. Oh what a surprise it’s just Francis. You are probably expecting a fight but no not yet. Just talk to him and that’s it. You will then be moved outside. So this is where that return scroll comes in handy. The Next part of the quest is to talk to Tru so head over to lith. Once you talk to him you will have to head to Rien and talk to Lilin/Ririn. Once you talk to her you will be given the Skill Pole Arm Booster. This is exactly the same as 2nd Job booster apart from it boosts 3 levels instead of 2. So this is a really good skill.


Level 23+


Now the Perion chain of quests begin. Start of by talking to Tru in Lith. Then make your way to Perion and talk to the Cygnus Representative there, you will be doing a few quests for her. Her first quest is simple, Kill 100 Ghost Stumps. You may also notice a new Ghost Stump. It is called Depressed Ghost Stump, it looks pretty happy to me but whatever. Both kinds count so just kill away.


Level 24+


For the next Perion quest you have to collect 5 Ghost Stump Dolls. They don’t drop from any monsters however. You will probably have noticed earlier that the Excavation Site is now covered in jars/urns. Smash these open until you get 5 dolls. The drop rate is pretty good so you won’t be there all day. After you have all 5 return to the Cygnus Representative and get the reward.


Level 25+


As you can see the quests are getting a bit more spaced out now. You are still in Perion however. This one is simple, just talk to the representative and then head to Tru and talk to him, quest complete. You will then have a new quest from the Cygnus Representative in Perion.

I will pick up from there and show the final first job quests in Part 3 of this video.


KMS Aran 1st Job Quests Pt. 3 – Available in HD



Level 25+


This is the final quest in Perion. It’s really simple. You will be given a Document that you must deliver to Nineheart. So head over to him and complete the quest.


Level 28+


New we move on to the Sleepywood quests. When you are 28 go speak to Tru again and begin the quest. You will need to go to Sleepywood and talk to a new NPC called Jur Nal. He is at the entrance to the Ant Tunnel. After talking to him he will have a new quest. You will need to kill 300 Zombie Mushrooms and collect 1 Doll. You will also see the 3rd of the new mobs added. It is called the Murderous Zombie Mushroom, quite a brutal name for MS. It will probably get changed to Angry or something in English. Killing either kind counts so heading to the Mini Dungeon is probably your best bet.

For his next quest you must make your way down into the Evil Eye caves and to Francis’s hideout. All you have to do is pres up at the doorway as if you are trying to enter and that will complete the quest, easy but quite tedious. Return to Jur Nal and he will instruct you to speak with the statue in Sleepywood. It will ask you to collect 100 Evil Eye tails. Once you have completed this return to the statue then go and speak with Tru.


Level 29+


It’s finally time to fight Francis. Go and talk to Tru, he will give you a special weapon. It’s just the level 30 Pole Arm with a level 29 requirement. Nothing amazing but it could be a nice attack boost for this quest. The Pole Arm disappears once you log out however. So hope you aren’t unlucky and disconnect like I did.

Make your way back to the Evil Eye cave and into Francis’s hideout. You will have to enter a password before you are let in. It is the exact same password as used in the Cygnus Quests. If you don’t know then it’s 프란시스는 천재 인형사! / Francis is a genius Puppeteer! in GMS.. I already uploaded the fight separately but I had space to include it in the quest video this time unlike with my Cygnus quest video.

Once you defeat Francis collect what he drops and take it back to Tru. You will then need to go and see Lilin/Ririn. The moment I entered town my skill window automatically popped up and the Second Job Skill Preview was displayed. I assume this was intentional and not a random bug. All you need to do now is simply talk to Lilin/Ririn and that will complete the quest. That’s it for all the first job quests. All you have t do now is make your way to 30 and advance into 2nd job.


KMS Aran 2nd Job Advance – Available in HD


When you reach level 30 a quest light bulb will appear above your head. Accept it and head to Rien. There you finally get to meet Mach. Just talk to him and you’ll get a tiny cut scene. Then go talk to Lilin/Ririn. She will tell you to go to the Cave at the very top or Rien, so make your way there.

I decided to add a mini map and mark out the route in red. It’s really easy to get there in game all you do is walk left from town but I think it helps give a better understanding for people who have never been there.

Once you make your way inside there will be a glowing blue portal, just go through it and you will be transported somewhere else.

The moment you enter the clock will count down from 15 minutes. It is a Mu Lung themed map. It also has the flash back style effect they used on the intro around the corners of the screen. Talk to the Panda NPC there to begin the quest. It may be a new fancy setting but it’s the same old same old. Just kill monsters and collect 30 etc pieces they drop. They are just like the other bears in Mu Lung but a lot cooler looking. As usual they also give no exp. Make your way left to the next map and get killing.

I was surprised how easy this was. It was a total breeze to get all 30 badges. To me this is the easiest 2nd job advance in the game. The Cygnus advancement is easier than the Adventurers but this is way easier. Then again the pirate job advance is rather simple so maybe that should win the title.

Anyway once you have all 30 just head back and talk to the NPC. You will get a little Cut Scene. After that you will find yourself back in the cave. I tried this out but never filmed it. You can go back through the portal and into that map again but Im not sure why you would really want or need to. Just make your way back to town now. The hard part is over.

When back in town make your way over to Mach. talk to him and you will advance into 2nd job. The little skill preview image also pops up again. You will be given a new medal which Adds 100 Hp and Mp but this time they are rather useless thanks to the combo medals that I showed in a previous video.

Like the first job Advance you are only given 2 skills, you must complete quests in order to unlock the rest. I put my first point into Triple Swing, this is performed by pressing the attack key 3 times. The other skill you receive is body pressure.

The Evan Class : Dragon Master


Main information coming soon…
Download Music: DragonDream

Introduction to Evan
Another story of a baby dragon who has been waiting for a hero.
Once there was a normal boy that lived near the village of Henesys.
He discovers a dragon egg that he saw in his dream.
And so, the story of the Dragon Master unfolds.
In the beginning, Evan and the baby dragon knew nothing.
But with the growth of the baby dragon, Evan’s strength continues to increase endlessly.


Evan Frequently Asked Questions


Q: A little more about Evan?
Spadow: Evan will have a similar start as Aran (Black Road),
but will not have the exclusive Combo system.
At Lv. 1, Evan will start in a place nearby Henesys.
Evan discovers a dragon egg that he saw in his dream,
it hatches and the strength and growth of the baby dragon will be stronger.
Evan is a Dragon Master with an (evolving) dragon by his side,
the Dragon can evolve ten times: 10 → 15 → 20 → 30 → 45 → 70 → 85 → 100 → 110 → 120.
The Dragon starts little at the beginning, but at the end it will evolve in a big strong Dragon


Evan Advantages (Pros) and Disadvantage (Cons)

Pros:

Dragon Elemental Attacks
Has a combination of Fire, Ice, Lightning attacks. Poison? You have best of both worlds.
This allows the player to train on maps where Fire Mage and Ice Mage used to train on.

Cons:

Dragon Attacks Only Front
Dragon only attacks wherever your character faces. If it faces on the left, the dragon attacks monster on the left and vice versa. It’s not flexible as Bishop Bahamuth that can attack freely (left/right/bottom/top). So if you are looking for a way to AFK (Away From Keyboard) and Train, make sure your character faces the platform with monster at one corner!

I know it’s alot to ask considering you’re injured… but you’re our only hope!

Tutorial Lirin:
You… are finally awake!
You:
…who are you?
Tutorial Lirin:
I’ve been waiting for you. Waiting for the hero that fought the Black Wizard to finally wake up…!
You:
…Wait, what are you saying? And who are you… ? Wait… who am I…? I don’t remember a thing form the past! OUch… and I have a terrible headache!
Tutorial Lirin:
Are you okay?
You:
I… really don’t remember a thing…. Where am I? And who are you?
Tutorial Lirin:
Relax. The curese of the Black Wizard is the reason why you don’t have any memories with you. There’s no need to worry about what happened in the past. I’ll explain it to you in detail.
You’re a bonafide hero here. A few hundred years ago, you and your friends battled the Black Wizard and saved the world of Maple from certain destruction. But at the last possible moment, the Black Wizard gave you a curse, which had you frozen in ice for a long time while completely wiping out your memory.
You are currently at an Island called Rien, and it’s the Island the Black Wizard chose to trap you for hundred of years. Because of his curse, this island is always covered in snow and ice, even though the weather is nothing close to that level. You were found somewhere deep in the cave.
And my name is Lirin, a member of the Rien race. The Rien race has been holding hope for your return for centuries, and now… the hope has finally paid off. You are here, standing right in front of me, the living breathing legend.
I may have given you too much information all at once. If you have yet to catch on to everything, then that’s okay. You’ll find out, sooner or later. In the meat time, you should head over to town. If you have any questions before getting to town, please feel free to ask me.

You will be teleported to Snow Island Cold Forest 1.
Lirin accompanies you in your journey.
Double click on Lirin to ask questions about matters that you are in doubt.


Tutorial Lirin (Frequently Asked Questions)


Do you have any questions?

Who am I?
Lirin: You, my friend, are one of the heroes that fought valiantly against the Black Wizard hundreds of years ago. You have lost all your memories because of the curse he casted on you.

Where am I?
This is Rein Island, an island that held you on ice for hundred of years. It’s a small island that consists of little more than snow and ice. Most residents here are penguins.

Who are you?
My name is Lirin, a member of the Rein race that has been waiting for you to arrive. My dream has come true, and I will be here to guide you for the rest of your journey.

Tell me what I need to do now.
If you want more details, you should head over to town right now. Just follow the instructions. I will tell you more details once we reach town.

A hero? Who… me? Judging from what Lirin said,
I might have really been a hero in the past life.
Even so, I have no recollection of what happened in the past…
Reward:
Can be run with the quest “The Weapon That Disappeared”

Puka:
I’ve been searching through blocks of ice inside the cave in hopes of finding our hero, but… I didn’t think I’d actually see one in front of me right now! The prophecy is correct! Lirin, you were right! Now that the hero has been resurrected, we won’t have to worry about the Black Wizard anymore, right?
Wait, I have been holding onto you for too long. I’m sorry, but I bet you other penguins will react the say way as I did. I know you’re busy and all, but on your way to town, please go strike up a convesation with other penguins. Everyone will be shocked if the hero is the one initiating a conversation with them!
Reward:
- Special Rein Red Potion 5
- Special Rein Blue Potiion 5
- EXP: 16 exp

Puka:
Wow, you managed to level up! That means you may have acquired skill points too. In the world of Maple, every level up means 3 skill points. Press K to open the skill window and find out.
You:
These penguins are so nice to me in every way possible, yet I don’t remember them one bit. I better check the skill window first… but how do I do that? (Short Cut: Press S)

The hero is back for good!!
Oh this is unreal… I can’t believe I am staring right at the hero of Maple! It’s an honor!! Here, let me shake your hand… and if you can give me a hug… Hehe.. and can you please sign this?
Ah, I’m so sorry. I was so happy to have finally met you that I guess I crossed the line. I need to take a deep breath. Ahhh… Okay, I feel better now. But um… can I… ask you for a favor? Please?

…I’m sorry. I’m just overcome with emotions, that’s all. Sniff… buf really, this is monumental… my gosh, I’m tearning up again… Lirin, you must be really hapy too.

Ahh, maybe swinging around the sword may help bring back some memories, no? How about going around for some monster-hunting?

Procedure:
1. Walk toward the next portal in Snow Island Cold Forest 5. Lirin will talk.
Snow Island – Cold Field 5 > Snow Island – Inside Dangerous Forest > Rein (Town)

Lirin (Cold Field 5)
Just a little bit more, and you’ll reach the town. I’ll head over there first since I also have some things to take care of. There’s no need to rush, Aran. I’ll see you there.
Lirin (Rein Town)
You must be confused in more ways than one. It’s totally understandable, seeing that you had just recently woke up from inside the ice cave with no recollection of the past. Add that with me calling you a hero, and… I totally understand. I’m here now to explain to you in detail what exactly took place before you woke up.
A few hundred years ago… the whole world was under the grasp of the Black Wizard. With his evil powers, the Black Wizard was bringing the world of Maple closer and closer to total destruction, and he almost succeeded in doing just that.
Many people tried valiantly to prevent the Black Wizard from controlling their lives, to no avail. Soon, the whole world as on the verge of destruction, and that’s when a number of brave souls made a pivotal decision. They decided to take on the Black Wizard all by themselves, buying time for the rest to find refuge in places far from here.
No one knows the details of the battle, but these were the aftermaths. The Black Wizard was sealed up, while the heroes made the ultimate sacrifice and disappeared. With their efforts, the world of Maple finally has peace once again, and.. that was that. It didn’t take long for these people to forget about these heroes.
A lot of time had passed since the battle when a Book of Prediction appeared out of nowhere. According to the book, the Black Wizard that had lost all of his powers casted on final curse on the heroes, the curse eing that the heroes will lose all of their memories and abilities, and will be stuck frozen on ice for a few hundred years.
Everyone thought the book was a bunch of baloney, but one of the races thought otherwise, and began conducting research on the Book of Prediction. I am the last remaining successor of the race, and that’s why I’ve been waiting on the island, knowing that some day, the heroes will be reawakened.
And here you are, the very hero stated in the Book of Prediction, the one that helped save the world of Maple, only to be tragically forgotten by the Maplers over the years. And I am certain you’re the hero that will save us once more… do you get it?
Decline
You must be a bit overwhelmed with everything that I threw at you just now. If you aren’t sure of what I had just told you, then I’ll be more than happy to tell you the story once more. Tell me when you’re ready.
Accept
[Notice] Quest Complete! Lirin’s Story
Are you sure you do? Because you look a bit dazed. Hmmm, okay then. I’m going to make sure that you did understand what I just told you, by giving you a pop quiz on it. Tell me when you’re ready.

Quest Available: [Required] Lirin’s Story (over Level 5, For Legend) 2
Location: Rein Town
NPC Involved: Lirin
Quest:
According to Lirin, a few hundred years ago, there was a group of heroes that valiantly fought against Black Wizard, who controlled the world of Maple, and apparently, I’m one of them. Because of the curse of Black Wizard, I had lost all of my memories and abilities, and was frozen on ice until being awakened recently.
Procedure:
1. Talk to Lirin to answer her quiz.

Lirin: Okay, here’s the pop quiz.

1st question. What was the name of the wizard that held the world of Maple in his evil hands?
- White Wizard
- Black Wizard (answer)
- Pale Wizard
- Brown Wizard

2nd Question: The heroes, yourself included, decided to take on the Black Wizard by themselves and bought time for the rest to find refuge somewhere afar. The result of this final battle was mentioned in the Book of Prediction. What was the result.
- Defeated the Black Wizard
- Made peace with the Black Wizard
- Sealed up the Black Wizard (answer)
- Became lovers with the Black Wizard

Here’s the last question: The world of Maple may look peaceful on the surface, but it’s really on the verge of chaos. That’s because rumor has it that the Black Wizard may resurrect sometime in the future. If that rumor turns out to be true, the Black Wizard will make sure that this time, the wolrd of Maple will not stand a chance. What should you do when this happens?
- Defeat the Black Wizard and save the world

I see that you paid attention to what I told you. You may have lostyour memory and abilities, but… you’re still a hero to all of us.
Reward:
- EXP: 140 exp
[Notice] You have gained experience (+140)

The Book of Prediction also stated that the heroes will one day reappear and defeat the Black Wizard once and for all. You will fight the Black Wizard again some day, with the fate of the whole world on your shoulder.

I am sure you were a bit caught off guard with all this talk. Let’s make this simple. Your job now is to trian harder to the point where you can soundly defeat the Black Wizard when he makes his inevitable resurrection. Isn’t that simple?


Basic Training 1

Quest Available: [Required] Basic Training 1 (For Legend) 1
Location: Rein Town
NPC Involved: Lirin
Quest:
Lirin’s debriefing allowed me to sort of understand the gist of the history betwen the heroes and the Black Wizard. I have a feeling I may have to get myself prepared for the second showdown with the Wizard down the road. I better ask Lirin what I should do next.
Procedure:
1. Talk to Lirin to obtain your quest.

Lirin:
Okay, enough explaining. Let’s move on to the next stage. What’s the next stage, you ask? I just told you. Train as hard as you can until you reach that stage where youc an defeat the Black Wizard with a single blow.
You may have been a hero in the past, but we’re talking about a few hundred years ago. Even without the curse of the Black Wizard, you just spent hundred of years frozen in time, so it’s only true that your body is rigit to say the least. Let’s get your body warmed up first. How so you ask?
Everything has to do with fundamentals, and you know it. Yes, I’m going to put you through Basic Training. Oh yeah, you also lost all your memories, so you might nobe aware of it. Well, that’s okay. You’ll just have to experience it firsthand. Are you ready to tak eon the first set of trianing?
Decline
Hey, I thought you were a hero. Let’s act up fast now. It’s alwys better to take the medicine first. Come on, let’s do this!
Accept
The island is full of penguins, but you will encounter some monsters form time to time. When you head over to the right side of the town called Snow-covered Field 1, you’ll see a number of Murupas. I want you to defeat 10 Murupas. I’m sure you’ll have no trouble defeating the Murupas that get attacked by these slow penguins.

Quest Available: [Required] Basic Training 1 (For Legend) 2
Location: Rein Town
NPC Involved: Lirin
Quest:
Lirin told me since I have lost all of my abilities as well as my memory, I’ll have to do everythign I can to regain form. Before doing that, however, she suggested that I first warm up, seeing that I was frozen in ice for hundreds of yeras. The first level of basic training seems to be that of monster hunting. I better head over to Snow-covered Field 1 and start hunting.
Procedure:
1. Defeat 10 Murupas in Snow-covered Field 1
2. Return to Lirin after completing the task.

Lirin:
Were you able to defeat the Murupas? I mean, those monsters are the easiest ones you can find here, so easy that you can swing around blindfolded and still defeat them. A hero that’s slower than a penguin? That’s embarassing…
Reward:
- Special Rein Red Potion 15
- Special Rein Blue Potion 15
- EXP: 320 exp

That was a bit better than the penguins, but still not enough to take on a real training. Let’s quickly move on the next level. Talk to me when you’re ready.


Basic Training 2

Quest Available: [Required] Basic Training 2 (For Legend) 1
Location: Rein Town
NPC Involved: Lirin
Quest:
Basic Training continues. If I want to start the second stage of Basic Training. I better go talk to Lirin.

1. Talk to Lirin to proceed with Basic Training 2.

Lirin:
Okay, shall we continue Basic Training? Are you ready for the second stage? Please check and make sure you have your sword equipped, and your potions and skills placed on the HotKeys. Once you’re ready, let me know.
Decline
Are you not ready to hunt Murupias yet? Please be well-prepared before going on a battle like this. There’s nothing worse than engaging in a battle totally unprepared.
Accept
Okay, this time, you’ll be taking on a monster that’s slightly more powerful than Murupa, Murupia. Head over to Snow-covered Field 2 and defeat 15 of them. That should help you regain some stamina.

Quest Available: [Required] Basic Training 2 (For Legend) 2
Location: Rein Town
NPC Involved: Lirin
Quest:
Lirin expressed that this is the continuation of Basic Training, and that this time, I’ll have to head over to Snow-covered Field 2, and defeat some Murupia(s). Come to think of it, Lirin seems a lot different from when I first saw her, back when she had that mystical aura about her.
Procedure:
1. Head to Snow-covered Field 2 and defeat 15 Murupia(s)
Rein Town (move to the furthest right portal) > Snow-covered Field 1 > Snow-covered Field 2
Ayumilove Tips
Use Three-Snails skill (add SP till it become max) Use it against Murupias for fast training.
Use Three Snails at Murupia once, then slash it when its HP is little. This conserves MP (mana)

Lirin:
Oh, you were able to defeat all the Murupias like I asked you to do. You do look like you have gotten a bit stronger than before. Somewhere along the lines… of penguins flapping their wings?
Reward:
- Special Rein Red Potion 20
- Special Rein Blue Potion 20
- EXP: 450 exp

Train a bit more, and you may one day be strong enough to carry a penguin all by yourself. Now talk to me when you’re ready to move on to the next level.

Procedure:
1. Talk to Lirin to initiate Basic Training 3 Quest.

Lirin:
Well, you look like you’re warmed up a bit. This is when the training should really take off, and you know it. Let’s continue our Basic Training.
This time, let’s head over to Snow-covered Field 3 and defeat some Murumurus. Somewhere around… 20? That should really help you improve your stamina. Now go ahead and… wait, do you want to say something?
You:
…Don’t you think the number’s increasing by each stage?
Lirin:
Yes, you’re right. Are you telling me 20 is not enough for you? Then shall we go with 100? No no no, now that we are TRAINING, how about we do something like 999, like someone from Sleepywood…?
You:
Well, on a second thought, 20 is fine.
Lirin:
No no no, you don’t have to refuse the offer. I do understand your desire to return to your heroice form, I REALLY DO. Seriously, this is why you’re the hero and I’m not…
Decline
(I pressed Reject out of fear, but… I can’t run away like this. I better calm down and talk to her again.)
Accept
(I pressed Accept, believing that if I listened any further, I might really have to go slay 999 of them…)
Lirin:
Alright, now please go ahead and slay 20 Murumurus.

Quest Available: [Required] Basic Training 3 (For Legend) 2
Location: Rein Town
NPC Involved: Lirin
Quest:
Lirin has raised the level of Basic Training and this time asked me to defeat Murumuru. This is getting more and more intense, so when I mentioned that to Lirin, I was greeted with a whole lot of nothing. Shoot, I better just head over to Snow-covered Field 3.
Procedure:
1. Head to Snow-covered Field 3 and defeat 20 Murumuru(s).
2. Return to Lirin once the task is completed.
Rien Town (go right) > Snow-covered Field 1 > Snow-covered Field 2 > Snow-covered Field 3

Lirin:
You were able to successfully defeat all the Murumurus. Were they enough for you to get some training done? I guess you’ll need to take on about… 300… of them?
You:
Oh heck no…
Lirin:
…well that was wishful thinking. You look like your stamina has significantly improved already. I don’t think you’ll need to go through 300 of them now.
Reward:
- Special Rein Red Potion 25
- Special Rein Blue Potion 25
- EXP: 550 exp

Now I want you to go through a physical fitness test to see if you’re ready for more. Talk to me when you’re ready.


Physical Fitness Test

Quest Available: [Required] Physical Fitness Test (For Legend) 1
Location: Rein Town
NPC Involved: Lirin
Quest:
I think I have gained some much-needed stamina through training. I better talk to Lirin and receive the physical fitness test for the final stage of Basic Training.
Procedure:
1. Talk to Lirin to initiate Physical Fitness Test.

Lirin:
Okay, now let’s have you go through a fitness test to see if you’re fit. It’s realy simple, though. All you need to do is take on the most powerful monster on this island, Murukun. Aobut 50 of them would suffice.
…but then again, wiping out the whole population of Murukun is never good for the environment, so I just want you to defeat 5 of them instead. You’re here to train, not to break down the eco-system!
Decline
Eh, is 5 to little for you? If you wish to defeat more for the purpose of training, that’s fine. If it’s your training, then… I’ll let you slide this time.
Accept
Murukun can be found in the deeper parts of the island. Head all the way left of town, and you’ll see Inside Dangerous Forest. Go in there and defeat 5 Murukuns.

Quest Available: [Required] Physical Fitness Test (For Legend) 2
Location: Rein Town
NPC Involved: Lirin
Quest:
Lirin told me for the Physical Fitness Test, I’ll need to battle Murukun. This time, I better head over to the other side, the west side of town where Inside Dangerous Forest is. Fortunately, that doesn’t seem so hard.
Procedure:
1. Head to Inside Dangerous Forest and defeat 5 Murukun(s).
Rein Town (go left) > Snow Island – Inside Dangerous Forest ( 3 times )
Note: Go left portal 3 times all the way until you see the big monster Murukun.
Note: The 3 maps you visit will have the same name: Inside Dangerous Forest. Confusing.

Lirin:
I see that you have defeated all 5 Murukuns. Have you noticed how much stronger you have gotten since the first set of training? Well… now that you’re ready, let’s get on with the real training, and… wait!
Reward:
- EXP: 1200 exp

Come to think of it, I still have yet to ask you of your name. You are one of the five heroes, yes, but… who are you? Wait, oh yeah, you lost all of your memories…
Anyway, it’s time for you to begin the real training towards defeating Black Wizard, and it’s a must for us to know which one of the five heroes you are in order to program the training that caters your strengths. There’s no point of learning skills with weapons that do not fit your profile, and it will definitely not be enough to take on the Black Wizard.
But really… who are you?

Ayumilove Tips:

The Five Heroes

Quest Available: [Required] The Five Heroes (over Level 10 For Legend) 1
Location: Rein Town
NPC Involved: Lirin
Quest:
In order to begin the real training, I may have to first figure out which of the five heroes was indeed myself, but I don’t remember anything… I better discuss this with Lirin.
Procedure
1. Talk to Lirin to find out about “The Five Heroes”

Lirin:
The records of the heroes that battled the Black Wizard is few and far between. They are almost impossible to find, actually. Even the Book of Prophecy only states that there were five heroes that battled the Black Wizard, with no clue whatsoever on their looks. Do you remember anything from that faithfuly day…? Like, how the heroes look like?
You:
No… nothing really.
Lirin:
I see. I mean, the curse of the Black Wizard wouldn’t be so weak that you’d remember things by now, anyway. But that being said, now that we have established that you are one of the heroes from that era, there should be a point where the past will be brought up sometime… but because of the battle, you don’t have any armors or weapons with you, and … wait, the weapon!
You:
A weapon?
Lirin:
Yeah, years ago, while digging up the ice in search of heroes, I cam across this incredible weapon. It looked like something a hero would use, so I placed it somewhere at the center of town. Didn’t you see it? Giant Pole Arm…

You:
Com to think of it, what was Giant Pole Arm doing in town… ?
Lirin:
Yes, that was it. According to the records, the weapon recgonizes its rightful owner, and if you’re the hero that used Giant Pole Arm, then the weapon will react when you first lay your hands on it. Go ahead and click on Giant Pole Arm.
Decline
What’s stopping you? Even if Giant Pole Arm doesn’t react, I won’t be disappointed. Go ahead and touch Giant Pole Arm by just clicking on it.
Accept
If Giant Pole Arm reacts, then you’ll be Aran, the hero that used Giant Pole Arm.


A Hero That Uses Pole Arm

Quest Available: [Required] The Five Heroes (over Level 10 For Legend) 1
Location: Rein Town
NPC Involved: Lirin
Quest:
Apparently, the hero’s weapon can recognize its owner in an instant, which means if I was indeed the hero that used pole arm, then the weapon would react the moment I touch the weapon. I better head over to town and click on Giant Pole Arm.
Procedure:
1. The Giant Pole Arm is located nearby Lirin on the left. Click the Giant Pole Arm.

You:
(Am I 100% sure I was the hero that used Giant Pole Arm? Yes, I was, and I am going to really hold on to Giant Pole Arm tight, so that’ll react.)
(I feel like something’s popping up in my head…)


New Beginning

Quest Available: [Required] New Beginning (over Level 10 For Aran) 1
Location: Rein Town
NPC Involved: Lirin
Quest:
I just found out that I was the hero that used pole arm, and that got me remembering a number of skills, but it was but an instant. I better report this to Lirin
Procedure:
1. Report to Lirin about this matter.

Lirin:
You look like you’re remembering some things. Is that because the pole arm recognized you and all…? That means it’s 100% certain that you are Aran, the hero that used pole arm. Do you remember anything else? Things like the skills you used with the pole arm…
You:
(I told her that I rememberd a number of skills.)
Lirin:
That’s not a lot, but it’s a progress. Our goal now is to have you return to your pre-frozen, heroice form. You may have lost all of your memories, but since you have gone through it before, I am sure it won’t take long for you to recover the abilities that your body remembers.
You:
How do I do that… ?
Lirin:
There’s only one way to find out. Train, train, and train some more! Keep training, and one day, your body will instinctively remember some of the things your body used to do hundred of years ago. To do that, I have a combat instructor that I’d like for you to meet.
Decline
Eh? Why would you say no to that? I guess you feel confident training on your own, but trust me, receiving some help and guidance will only help you become more powerful more quickly. Now that you’re not alone, I think it’s time for you to learn to mingle with others.
Accept
I thought it might be better for you to train with a weapon you’re accustomed to using, so I am giving you a pole arm. It should really help you on your training.
Head left of town, and you’ll see a small training ground. There, you’ll meet your combat instructor Puo. I am a bit worried, since he’s going through bouts of Alzheimer’s but he had spend a long time for this moment, to remind a hero like you of your old skills, so I bet receiving some help from him will only make you better.

Quest Available: [Required] New Beginning (over Level 10 For Aran) 2
Location: Inside Dangerous Forest
NPC Involved: Puo
Quest:
Lirin seemed amazed that I was able to recover that many abilities, and urged me to start training hardcore. She then recommended me seeing Puo the Penguin Master, an old penguin that studied the intricacies of hero’s skills. He can be found west of town at Inside Dangerous Forest.
Procedure:
1. Head to Inside Dangerous Forest and talk to Puo Instructor Penguin.
Rein Town (Go Left) > Inside Dangerous Forest > Inside Dangerous Forest.

Puo:
Hohoho… welcome. It’s great to finally meet the true hero of Maple… Aran! Now, how did I know you were an Aran? Simple. A master like me should be able to figure out the level of competition simply by observing their posture and aura! Also, isn’t that a pole arm on your right hand? See, I’m definitely an observer!
Reward:
- EXP: 100 exp

He doesn’t instill me any confidence, but I should still receive some training from Puo.
Procedure:
1. Talk to Puo for Training.

Puo:
I have been studying the records of the heroes of Rien, and I focused particularly on the skills. I made sure not to leave anything out when studying the skills. In the end, I came to conclusion that when the heroes were still beginners, they trained by battling against Slime!
Slime! It’s that devastating, transparent monster that consists of sticky liquid! I truly believe piercing that body with that pole arm is a difficult task, akin to trying to break a pierce of egg with rocks. Wait, was it the other way around?
Hmmm, hmm! Anyway, I do believe is pivotal to your training towards regaining your form as a hero! Eliminating Slime will do wonders for you! Now go ahead and take on 30 Slimes!
Decline:
No? Why? Battling Slime is a certified method of training for heroes! I mean, you went through the same thing hundreds of years ago!
Accept
Rien might be too cold for Slime to live in, but do not worry! This is why I’ve been raising a bunch of Slime for Trainings nearby! Now, go ahead and take the portal here that leads to the training ground, where Slime for training will await you!
Seriously no one can match me in my ability to anticipate the future!

Reward
- Special Rein Red Potion 30
- Special Rein Blue Potion 30
- EXP: 1400 exp

MapleStory MSEA and GMS VIP Hair Styles with Hair Saloon Location

Leave a comment if you found new information!

If you found out something that is not mentioned here or incorrect, post a comment here so I could update this post with the latest hairstyles / hair color information or perhaps new hair style in hair saloon (aka beauty parlor)! Work In Progress…


Frequently Asked Questions


What is REG Coupon Hair Style Coupon?
REG is short for REGULAR. REG Hair Style Coupon randomly select hair style out of all the choices provided in that town. Regular Coupons is least expensive. However, you might get a hair style you dislike.

What is VIP Coupon Hair Style Coupon?
VIP is short for Very Important Person, but I can’t find any relation to hairstyles. It allows you to choose the hairstyle you want rather than relying on the NPC to randomly choose. It cost much more than REG coupon, but its much safer since this guarantee you get it right first time.

What is EXP Hair Style Coupon?
EXP is short for EXPerimental Hair Style Coupon. It is a combination of both REG and VIP. It randomly selects a hair style but it also includes secret hairstyle. These secret hairstyles can’t be obtained from REG and VIP coupon. I guess EXP Coupon is another way for MapleStory companies to earn more money from players! It would take a few or many EXP Coupons to obtain secret hair style, cost more on player side.

MapleSEA Aran Arrives this November

08/11/2009 ayumilove 1 comment


Aran, a Hero Resurrected


Long ago, five legendary heroes bravely battled against the Black Wizard to protect the residents of Maple.
Despite their powerful skills, the heroes coutd not defeat the Black Wizard. To save the residents, the heroes sent them to Victoria bland before they went to face oft the Black Wizard for one last time. Since then, neither the Black Wizard nor the five heroes could be found. The residents of Maple could only assume that the heroes sacrificed themselves in their battle against the Black Wizard. Now, centuries later…


Aran, the Resurrected Hero!


A hero that uses a polearm in the battle against the Black Wizard.
After spending a few centuries trapped in ice due to a curse of the Black Wizard, Nan
Suddenly awoke one day to see a gin wasting for him.


The girl, Lirin.


After he was awoken, Aran realized he had lost aU his memories and abilities. As the last member of a clan that believed in Aran’s resurrection, Lirin is helping Aran to recover his memories and abilities. With Lirin’s help, Aran is slowly beginning to recover and adjust to civilization. With training, he will be able to
remember the skills that have laid dormant for the past centuries. Keep your eyes on Aran, the resurrected
hero of Maple’


Aran Video Trailer


Lirin


A Girl That Awaits Aran
After heroes’ battle with the Black Wizard, there was a dan of residents that believed that the slain heroes will nse again, as foretold by the Book of Prediction. However, after centuries without any signs of the heroes’ resurrection, the residents began to lose faith in the prediction and gradually left the island m frustration. Only one person, a little girl named Lirin, remained on the island as she firmly believed that the prediction would come top. Then one day, she finally got to meet the resurrected hero of Maple world, Azan. Lirin may have an icy appearance, but deep inside she has a bumrng heart that beats with passion even in the direst of times.


Maha


The Spirit of the Pole Arm Used by Aran
Maha is the spirit of a pole arm that Aran wielded in the past. With Aran having lost all of his memories and abilities, it is up to Maha to unlock Aran’s dormant powers. This spirit will not be seen unless Aran has reached a certain level.


The Penguins


Penguins that reside in Rien.
Seeing Lirin wait for Aran to be resurrected all by herself made these penguins feel compassionate towards the girl. They have been helping and supporting Lirin in various areas. In fact these penguins were responsible for spotting Aran, who was found trapped in ice.


Tru


The Info merchant in 11th Harbor, and Aran’s supporter.
Like Lirin, Tru used to be in the clan that believed in Arans resurrection. However, with no sight of any hero resurrecting, he became frustrated and left Rien. As an Info Merchant, he supports Aran and Lirin in many ways after he found out that Aran has returned.
