Personally, I really like all of both old and new classes, because each of them has its own ways to use the skills to attack, manuever, buff, summon, etc. I’m the guy who never bashes any kind of classes in MapleStory, because people can choose what class do they want to make.
While old classes are still fun to play, I also enjoy playing new classes like Demon Slayer, both Axe and Mace style. However, I’m not hyped on playing them, because I respect people who continue play old classes as well, as long as they don’t bash any of the classes.
I have my Paladin, my Bishop, my Cannon Master, and my Mercedes as my main characters, but I don’t consider them to be better than all other classes, nor do I consider them to be way more fun. For example, I played my Cannon Master, and I never said things like “Boo-hoo! Corsairs suck! Cannon Masters PWN Corsairs!” I support both Cannon Masters and Corsairs, as well as all other classes.
You know that I’m not biased in any of the classes at all, because every single class has its advantages and disadvantages, whether if a class is old or now. If there is the best or most fun class in MapleStory, everyone will be playing that, and if there is the worst or most boring class, no one will be playing that.

Finally, there is someone in Maple who is not biased on any class. Personally, I think all classes in MapleStory are awesome, whether they are Warriors, Archers, Mages, Thieves, and Pirates!

Comment by dennyvuquach January 15, 2012 @ 11:05 amAwesome post! While I myself like to play new classes, such as Aran or Mercedes, I never think they are more overpowered than the old classes. I don’t pick classes just because they’re old or new. I pick them, because I find them fun and appealing.
