well at least to new players... I've been thinking, and wasn't the reason that CK's were made were to provide a taste of what adventurers could achieve/become? And if it wasn't then i guess you can stop reading lol 'cause the logic in what I'm about to say would be destroyed. If the CK's were made to give a taste of what adventurers could be, then why all those new skills made? like for the Dawn Warrior, soul blade and soul driver. Or vampire and poison bomb (i forgot what it was called :o) for the Night Walker. Wind Archer gets wind walk, wind shot, and albatross. Sharkwave and sparks for the Thunder Breaker, and for Blaze wizard i think all their attacks come from all the magician classes except for fire pillar.. I think this is kind of important, considering that most CK's incorporate these moves as they train, so wouldn't it be misleading to say that CK's would provide a taste of what adventurers would become, considering adventurers train using different skills? That'd probably make it a lot harder for someone who has a Dawn Warrior and decides to make a Crusader, seeing as how he must train with powerstrike, slash blast and coma; instead of soul driver and soul blade and maybe powerstrike to finish of stragglers... About the only thing i see that makes CK a bit more like adventurers are the two 4th job skills they get at 110 and 100 iirc. TLDR: CK's use different skills than adventurers to train, so how is it that they'll provide a taste of what adventurers can be? Eh. I just wanted to share this, I'm not sure at all if I'm right.. Please don't mind my grammar and spelling, It's 2:30 am, I'm bored, and just want to start a discussion. lol so discuss.

I thought the point of CKs were to buff your main character and contribute to the storyline that's going on within Maplestory with the Black Mage and stuff.

In my opinion, they aren't supposed to provide a "taste" of how another class feels. Although my fun Thunder Breaker has made me consider playing a Brawler later.... The basic playing style is the same, and that's what might give a "taste".

Wrong Cygnus Knights were, the elites used to Destroy the Black Wizard or w/e and save the world we know as maple.

Didn'rread most of it, but they're not there oogive a taste of adventurers they're simply something new and frreehing. They're also to people who can't even get to 3rd job like me >.>

"Don't stop training, every ounce of your energy is required to save the maple world" lol I feel like that's a little bit too much. But yeah, I think it's basically what the first poster said. I play mine because I get to have all the fun of a brawler without having to worry about him becoming my main and all the while my cb gets buffed as well. It's nice

The main reason cygnus knights were made was to contribute to the fun of the game. Maplestory is trying extremely hard to think of something new and creative, and that's pretty hard in itself. Cygnus knights are a new set of chars that were easier to think of and contributed to the game in a positive way. I know people complain about them overpowering adventurers, but I think the pros beat the cons (buff for main, extremely fun to play, fast paced leveling, and gives you taste of something new). In brief cygnus knights were made to add more fun to the game. The only reason they resemble other classes is because Maplestory is reaching its limit, and you can only go too far before running out of ideas.

By level 20 people probably aren't going to be that new, and you're not thinking about everyone other than new players, because its not just for them.

lol well i would say mages r boring over all cause i actualy like to feel a part of the fight thats why i like brawler,thunder breakers,all warrior types, and dits they actualy fighting unlike sin,bowman,xbowman and the others they have a huge range and they still complaining. and boring people r just pure lazy and dont want to play and put in the work all classes r worth it in 4th and 3rd job u just have to work for iit grow up and work thats wat life is working hard, the whole point to ms is to work at ur player and be proud ur all just lazy and sad exmaple leeching.

Well, it's just to add Storyline. Like, probably one of Nexon's ideas because they also sponsor Mabinogi. Mabinogi has all the G's. [G1,G2,G3, ETC.] So, I'm guessing MapleStory is attempting to get bigger and better. For me the game is, but the community isn't getting any better sooner or later..
