MapleStory/Maple Tree Hill



Exclusive to JapanMS, a new tutorial area known as the Adventurer Training Course has replaced Mushroom Town on Maple Island. After creating a new character, one is brought to an area that resembles the backstage of a movie set. This can be skipped, but it is not beneficial. Players are given a costume that resembles a green apple that cannot be unequipped. In this area are props and backdrops depicting each town on Victoria Island, with a screen displaying each class in combat. The NPCs wear similar suits, except of red maple leaves. The player rolls down through the sets on a conveyor belt taking the typical quests. In the next area are various beginner quests and backdrops of the major Ossyria towns. Replacing the old Jr. Sentinels are Drum Bunnies and Leatty. Upon leaving the area, players are transported to Maple Island and lose the costume.

 * There are a number of inconsistencies in these background images. For instance, a mage can be seen using skills from both jobs, like a lightning attack and then healing. Also, a thief wearing level 60 and higher equipments can be seen taking multiple hits trying to kill a low level octopus monster in kerning with wolbi stars. An archer wearing a level 50 hat can be seen taking three to four hits to take out a lowly orange mushroom. Some feel this gives an inaccurate representation of the jobs early on.
