Demon Slayer Training/ Skill Build

♠ Posted by Edmund Lee in Maple Story at 4:10 AM

The newly awakened Demon Slayer is the final member of the Resistance. After breaking away from the Black Knight he joined the Resistance to gather both information and to regain his former power. He uses One-Handed Blunt Weapons (Maces) and One-handed Axes, they can also use Scepters. Scepters are just basically Fast Blunt weapons given to your via story quests and job advancements. Instead of worrying about Mana, the Demon Slayer uses a unique system of Demon Fury (DF); gained upon slaying monsters or just doing damage. You get a Fury Shield every Job advance, you cannot scroll them, but the lvl 120 fury shield comes with hidden potential. Meaning you can cube it. Also the shields Level Up like reverse/timeless items, meaning they gain stats with each level up.

First Job Advancement

26. +1 HP Boost (10), +2 Grim Scythe (3)
27. +3 Grim Scythe (6)
28. +3 Grim Scythe (9)
29. +3 Grim Scythe (12)
30. +3 Grim Scythe (15)

 Summary: Level 10 Demon Slayers start out with 5 points instead of 1. So add 4 points into Demon Lash, your main attacking skill, and 1 into Grim Scythe for your 1-1 boss skill. We want to get 6 points into Battle Pact next because it boosts our attacking rate by two speeds. Level 6 makes it last for 1 minute and 8 seconds, which is good enough for now. We want to add some Speed and jump as Demon Slayers are the most Mobile Warrior class, so you want to get some of that mobility in as early as possible. This makes training far quicker. We finish Demon Lash and add points into Battle Pact to make it less annoying to rebuff. Max HP Boost next for more HP.

Summary: First we add 1 point into every attacking skill you get, Soul Eater, Dark Thrust, Choas Lock. We add points to some important buffs like Outrage (Free 6 attack and 1% crit more for 1 SP) 1 point in Vengeance because at level 1 it lasts 66 seconds and reflects damage back done to you to the enemy, so free damage done to your enemies for taking damage, it also stuns them 1/3 of the time. You want to max Soul Eater as fast as possible afterwards. It s your main attacking skill in 2nd job, it works sort of like monster magnet, pulling the enemy towards you while dealing damage to them, You can hold down the button to make it deal more damage, the longer you hold it the more damage it will do. You got your main attacking skill maxed you want to max Weapon Mastery. It will significantly increase your minimum damage, meaning on average you will do more damage. We want to max Outrage, increase the damage in all our attacks because it increases our Attack by 25, also the chance to score more criticals on attacks boost our damage output. Max Physical for more base stats. This is critical if you’re sturrlging with a low dex build and can’t equip your equipment properly. Max your rush skill next. By the time you max Dark Thrust you will be high enough to train on tougher monsters, this means you will be taking more damage. To help with that we max Dark Revenge next, it deals damage back to the enemy based on what you took, can reflect up to 400% and stun the enemy too. Afterwards we just dump the rest of our points into Chaos Lock, it sort of works like Evans Blink and teleports you to random portions of the map.

120. +3 Vortex of Doom (18)

Summary: 1 into Carrion Breath; a very powerful attack that is very commonly used in fourth job. 1 into Judgment, a powerful Area of Effect move with great range. Add 1 into Vortex of Doom, to use with Dark Judgment and Demonic Breath. Next we add points into Raven Storm, it’s our HP recovering move. Add 1 into Max Fury, and 1 into Focus Fury, adds 6% damage and +1 attack speed to all attacks. Max out Max Fury because it lets you recover a lot more fury more quickly. This allows you to continously build up Fury to allow for more move combinations to rock the monsters on the screen. Add one into Vortex of Doom. This skill works as a “reverse rush” as it pulls monsters toward you rather than away. Max Carrion Breath next. You then max Focus Fury to add additional damage to our attacks. We then max Black hearted strength, this skill boosts our resistances on all fields. Max Possessed Aegis next; we now dodge attacks at 30% rate We max Insult to Injury as it only increases the damage of our other attacks if you poison the enemy first with Demonic Breath, or stun them with Demon Trace or Dark Revenge or Vortex of Doom. It adds more critical chance so this is good. Max Raven Storm to reduce pot roasting during basic training, bossing, and PQs. Max Judgement Next. Dump the rest of the points to Vortex of Doom.
