Hey guys. I've been training my Evan so far since it came out, and as of now, it's level 34. It's doing pretty decent damage and it's quite fun, but can you guys give me an opinion? Aran or Evan? (or my CB again) My Aran is level 57 My Evan is level 34 My CB is level 92 I wanna know: 1. Which one will do more damage in the long run? 2. Which one will make more money in the long run? (or lose less money) 3. Which one will be the most fun in the long run? 4. Which one will be able to go on boss runs like Zak. Thanks guys :D

The CB. Evans and Arans are boring, IMO. CB+Bomb=Levels insanley fast. And they are great bossers.

As a Shadower you get to sit at HT runs. OT: 1. Arans will do more damage in the long run, remember, Evans are nice now but it's still a mage class. 2/4.Both classes will get into boss runs, Evan with their party skills, Aran with their Combo Barrier/DPM. (So equal opportunity to make money, now potting cost would depend on where you're training on your Aran. Aran + Skele = Not so fond of your wallet unless you're good at control/Evan consumes more MP pots which is more expensive than HP pots) 3. It's your opinion I find my Aran more fun than Evan though.

Train your aran to 70 for the ring. Quit it. Train evan to 50 for glasses/scroll. Quit it. Then use ring + glasses to add to your CBs power, and continue it. Why? Because after the balance patch, you shall be sexy<3

I'd go with the aran. I really enjoy my aran and am still pushing towards 120 and beyond. I really recommend continuing the aran.

Depends on the Situation, Evans have the greatest mobbing dps out of the three, Arans have the greatest 1v1, Shadowers have higher 1v1 then Evans, and MAY have higher mobbing dps then Arans(I can't confirm this, I do know that with Taunt and Venom Shadowers have higher exp gain then most if not all weapon classes) 2. Subjective. Although Arans will save more Money in the earlier levels, and Evans will start saving much more pots upon getting moves like Ice Breath, Slow, and Flame Wheel, to train a CB super fast, you will burn a huge amount of mesos, but if you have good control you will rarely get hit and will need to use very little pots, in terms of equipment and scroll cost, Aran>Evan>Shadower in terms of highest to lowest. This is saving mesos, making mesos depends on how well the player merches, how often the player bosses, what kind of drops a player founds, ect ect. 3. Fun is subjective and everyone will have a different opinion on it, Shadowers kind of bore me, while playing an Evan is one of the funnest things I've done on Maple Story in a long time, while my friend Heasu, 17x Shadower of Demethos, greatly enjoys his character and can't even stand the Evan class. 4. Bossing is also dependant on bossing more then anything, and Zak is a rather easy boss to get into, all characters will be able to Zak, and Horntail while we're at it (If you have the patience to get to such a level)

1.Aran do the most 1v1 by far and as for mobbing it's either them or evan. Not sure who's second in 1v1 DPM as all the Evan vids i've seen were from test servers. 2. Arans sve crap loads of money due to low mp costs and combo drain/body pressure. cbs waste it like crap with meso gaurd and bomb, evans use pots pretty quickly i think (not 100% sure on this) 3. I find arans to be most fun then evan and personally hate cb. however this is just a matter of opinion and may be different for you. 4. With the right connections, this won't matter. However, a lot of people wouldn't want a cb for most bosses (except for HT where they're extremely useful). I think Arans have the 2nd highest 1v1 DPM on the game aswell as combo barrier meaning lots of bosses for you, but they have the worst survivability of the three. Not too sure about Evans as I haven't seen enough of them to properly ascertain how useful they are at bosses.

I agree with MomoSnipes. get to 70 for the ring, get to 50 for glasses+scroll, or maybe even to 70. and then, go on your cb.
