MapleStory News

Welcome to the New MapleStory Website!



Welcome to the new MapleStory website!

It's been some time since our last major upgrade to the website, and we've worked hard to create this new site to better share information with you, including better integration of the Maple Guide and Bean Brigade pages, a new 6th Job guide page, a more responsive and flexible Player Rankings page, better Classes & Jobs pages to really show off what each of the dozens of Jobs can do, and a lot more!

While we were able to fully import our archived news posts from the previous website (and we apologize for the false alarm with our earlier announcement on the subject), please note that some older posts may not display perfectly on the new site. Additionally, as noted in an earlier post, previously purchased Marvel Machine Spins will be unavailable until the next Marvel Machine event.

Finally, while we have worked hard to make sure active links to the old website will redirect to the appropriate new URLs, it is possible that there will be errors. Please pardon our dust as we work to make sure everything is working well, and let us know if you encounter any errors or have any feedback on this new website.

Thank you for playing, and we hope you enjoy the new face of MapleStory online!

[h2]Lynn Details[/h2]
Growing up near the forest, Lynn felt watched over throughout her childhood. When she finally meets the friendly bear, Pan, Lynn learns of her destiny as the reincarnated Forest Child. Together Pan and Lynn begin a journey to awaken the master of the forest and ensure its protection. They are joined by two more critters: Penni the bird and Paeon the wolf.

Forest Child Lynn uses the power of the forest to help Maplers defeat their enemies! As a Magician, Lynn uses INT as her main stat. Her primary weapon is the Memorial Staff and her secondary weapon is a Leaf. Each of Lynn's animalistic Spirit Guides has their own skill set to aid her in battle. Lynn also possesses supporting skills to bolster her allies.



Check out a few of Lynn's powerful skills:
  • Peck: Penni flies about and automatically attacks enemies. Unaffected by attack reflection. Available at 2nd Job Advancement. Max Level: 20.
  • Sneak Attack: Paeon hides in the darkness, then pounces to follow up the skills of the other Spirit Guides. Unaffected by attack reflection. Available at 3rd Job Advancement. Max Level: 20.
  • Roar: Pan lets out a mighty roar, creating a shockwave that damages nearby enemies. Available at 4th Job Advancement. Max Level: 20.
  • Mother Nature's Touch: Shares the lifeforce of Mother Nature with all allies to provide healing effects. Restores HP, removes harmful effects, and grants continuous healing for a set time. Available at 4th Job Advancement. Max Level: 10.
