MapleStory - Guide to Demon Avenger 

You forgot to mention that Maple Warrior's effects for DA are passive so it’s the only class that doesn’t need to cast it or dedicate an auto buff slot for. Nether Slice having an extra line over Lunar Slash doesn’t mean anything. Lunar Slash does more damage overall. Lunar also procs Infernal Exceed so it’s doing 5 lines most of the time if lines are a concern (PNO whale I guess?)

5 exceed stacks from Thousand Swords is not a downside. In bossing, we don’t weave this attack, unless we want to rush Max Overload in order to heal in heal locked settings and it’s immensely helpful in that situation. In mobbing, it’s rare for us to use an Exceed skill since we transition to stationary rotations later on with just Thousand Swords, Nether Shield and Erda Fountain (plus Bats if you’re well funded.) Thousand Swords' exceed stacks will help maintain Overload Release's buff (25% fd) while training.

Demonic Blast not only ignores Frenzy's healing restrictions but also completely ignores healing restrictions in heal locked bosses. It will heal you for 25% HP regardless of your situation, as long as you hit the boss and aren't blinded (Blast can sometimes not heal on hit if you dealt MISS damage.) Overload Release can also heal you in heal locked situations but with only 20% of its original potency. A max stack Release will heal you for 20%. Of course this doesn't ignore Frenzy like Blast does. It's important to note that all your SKILL HP costs are reduced by 90% in heal locked situations (even Ghost Park) except for V skills, which is where Forbidden Contract can be used without gutting your final damage. You will be able to cast V skills for free when you want to burst without healing up despite skills having no consumption.

Revenant's cooldown is based on the damage taken that you store in your HP bar during the skill. You reduce the Thorns of Fury's cooldown by 1 second for every 25% damage you've stored. Your own skill consumption contributes to this charging which eliminates the need for a boss to slap you around as they'll probably be bound during burst. 6th job reduces the required stored damage per 1 second of cooldown as you level Revenant up (from 100% stored, to 80%, to 60%)

9:28 About Overload Release - Some Exceed basics: You have 10% lifesteal. Being under Lv. 30 Frenzy's restriction lowers this to 2% lifesteal (1% for Lv. 29) When you fall under 30% HP, you are no longer under Frenzy's effects, and can lifeheal 10% again. Once you're at maximum stacks, your healing is reduced from 10% to 3% (2% without reduce overload hyper passive) even when not under Frenzy's restrictions. After 5th job, you will have Demonic Frenzy on the entire time when playing this class. It's not actually viable to boss with Frenzy off. You will hardly ever be in danger from mob attacks due to how Arcane and Sacred force massively reduce their damage on you, not that their damage is even a threat without this mechanic. You will only use Overload Release to refresh your 25% fd buff around every 2 minutes. It's no different in bossing if you're using Lv. 30 Frenzy, as you'll hardly fall below 30% HP thanks to having 2% lifesteal per hit so restoring your lifesteal to its full potency isn't important. Using Lv. 29 Frenzy though, with only 1% lifesteal per hit, you will constantly be sitting on 30% of your HP. You will find yourself using it to heal against consistent chip damage when you fall below 30% HP. It's difficult to fight your way up to 30% HP with only 3% lifesteal (2% if not using reduce overload hyper passive)

There are some bosses that push you even if you have 100% stance. The super stance prevents that from happening

@@midcancarry9741 thank you!

You can keep an enhanced slot at lvl4 instead and max demon frenzy. You will have the flexibility to just swap it between the lvl5 or lvl4 slot depending on whether you want the extra healing or not.

@@kikopo999 Holy crap! I did not know about the Lv4 V Enhancement slot. That is so much more better than making a new Demonic Frenzy node. Thanks for the tip! Fellow DA main here.

@@EvilOnimusha Glad it helped. I am not a DA main, just knew about it from my friend thats a DA main. Thought it was pretty a genius move and wanted shared it.

Seconded!

I don't like making topical videos with things that can change very shortly after! I've thought about it with past controversies like the erda cap a month or two back, but chose not to because I wanted to avoid drama or make videos that will age like milk instantaneously afterwards. I don't agree with most of Nexon's recent decisions and a lot of them are extremely awful and upsetting to me, but I want to at least still try and make videos that will last longer than a week at most

It’s not. Potion pot can make it a lot easier but it’s already fairly braindead when using Lv. 30 Frenzy.

I see now thank you

Put your frenzy at 30 to unlock ez mode.

@@david21289 tbh i got mine to levl 210 and left him so...

I LOVED mobbing and bossing with a unfunded DA. its only your opinion.

Its 2024... who trains to 210...

@@rickie2086 New players that have no characters. Duh.

You’re just as clueless as him and probably think the game revolves around party bossing or classes juiced by 10as with little to no effort required to play optimally.

you’ve never late game bossed with DA and it shows 🤣 theres a reason why DA is high on the dps charts

@@yumix29xgreat class in reg. Complete dogshit in reboot with no scrolling

@@yumix29xI just checked, DAs ranked bottom of the whole game…

Using auto-HP on a DA is useless due to Demonic Frenzy's healing restriction. You will only lose potions

@@midcancarry9741 Damn. Im gonna lose one of my 999999999 elixirs.

LMAO

Get some help

not sure why I need help for voicing my deep hatred for obvious fakeness in others, especially for possible monetary gain. I wasn't trying to spread hate, only to call out fake actions that literally physically cringe me to the core. @@honeyballL

How much microplastics are circulating in your bloodstream right now?
