MapleStory/First Time Together

Requirements: Level 50+ (Recommended level: 50-69)

A party quest, the original first, is in Kerning City. The PQ is made up of a party of 3 to 4, for levels 50 and up. There are 5 stages to progress through by solving puzzles or defeating monsters, and a timer of 20 minutes. Only one party can be inside the party quest at any given time on one channel.

The Kerning City Party Quest is one of the fastest ways to gain experience. To complete the party quest, one must complete the following stages under the 20 minute time limit.



Kerning Stage 1
The first stage of the Kerning City Party Quest/ Accompaniment requires that each player in the party collect a specific number of coupons (red card-like etc. item) by defeating the Ligators around the zone. By speaking with Cloto on the right side of the zone, each player will be given a random number of coupons they need to collect by killing the monsters. When you have obtained the correct amount of coupons, talk to Cloto. After all 2 (a party of 3) or 3 (a party of 4) passes are collected, have your leader click on Cloto to open a portal to Part 2.

Kerning Stage 2
This part of the Accompaniment/Party Quest consists of 4 ropes. The objective is to arrange 3 of your members on these ropes to try to find the right combination, while the leader stands on the ground and clicks Cloto to determine if the combination is correct (a giant "Wrong" or "Clear" will appear on all players' screens). It is wise to have only 1 member move at a time, in a clockwise or counter clockwise direction, as this will prevent confusion. After discovering the correct combination, continue through the portal for yet another puzzle.

Kerning Stage 3
This area consists of 5 platforms labeled 1-5, indicated by the number of cats on the stump. The objective is to arrange 3 of your members on these platforms to try to find the right combination, while the leader clicks Cloto to determine if the combination is correct. It is recommended that you follow this pattern to prevent confusion:

123 - 124 - 125 - 134 - 135 - 145 - 234 - 235 - 245 - 345

After the first Wrong try, a hint will appear which stats how many platforms are correct. Use it to help you clear the stage.

Now continue through the portal for the final puzzle area of the Accompaniment/Party Quest.

Kerning Stage 4


There will be Curse Eyes spawning on platforms of this map, your objective is to kill all of them. After killing all of the Curse Eyes, simply ask your leader to click Cloto and proceed to the next and final stage. Now continue to enter the final stage.

Kerning Final Stage
This is it, the final stage. Once again, it is a combat stage. The Slime King is right below you after you proceed to the final stage, your objective is to kill the Slime King.


 * King Slime
 * Primary Attack: its only offensive skill is a small hop that causes a shock wave, dealing damage to anyone on the ground within a certain distance. As long as you keep a fair distance away or you are in the air, this attack will not be a problem. It is possible to dodge this attack by jumping, but due to lag, is better avoided by climbing the ladders or moving out of the way.
 * Supportive Skill: The King Slime also has a supportive skill, in which it raises its Defense.
 * King Slime drops Smooshy Liquid which are only obtained by defeating it. Only one party member is needed to pick the drop up and all the party members will gain the item in their inventory. This can be collected and exchanged for Squishy Shoes via Lakelis.
 * Squishy Shoes
 * Str +1
 * Dex +1
 * Int +1
 * Luk +1
 * Speed +3
 * Def +10
