|
Appears with Papulatus
|
A mine-like monster that is summoned during boss fights. If a player inflicts between 5000 and 10000 damage to it, it will self destruct, causing massive damage that almost always results in instant death. In JapanMS, they have nerfed this monster to making it auto-self destruct when touched but lowered its damage from 10k to a mere 8k. As of Patch V.037, JapanMS's Auto-self destruct system applies to GlobalMS's Darkstars, making Papulatus beatable once again. |

|
A Human enemy that only appears in the first three parts of the Showa mansion. Armed with a 1000 and 1400 damage knife attack, they are deadly to Melee type players, but ranged type people can take them out easy. Very good exp from level 79-90. |

This monster is now constantly hunted by warriors on MS versions that contain 4th job for a book that triggers the quest for Rush. Despite appearing only in Sanctuary Entrance III and IV, they are one of the toughest obstacles to reaching Jr. Balrog. |
Werewolf
|
|
Famed for dropping the Magician staff "Evil Wings", these beasts have incredibly high weapon defense, and a skill to boost it further. As such, most non-magicians have trouble dealing damage until higher levels. These can be more difficult to defeat than their stronger counterparts. They freeze, luckily, but the experience isn't worth the trouble. They possess a clawing attack, so be careful. Located deep in the cliffs right of El Nath. |

Yeti and Pepe
|
|
A Yeti carrying a Pepe around in a cart. Once their combined HP runs out, they separate and becomes able to be defeated. They drop some pretty rare items, and have the normal El Nath fire weakness/ice resistance. Their main method of attack is the Yeti's ground pound though. As usual, jumping invalidates it. Located just before the 50+ area in El Nath. |
| Hankie File:MS Monster Hengki.png |
|
Its magic attack can cause stun, so they might not be a good monster to train on if you don't kill them quickly. |
Lycanthrope
|
Summons Werewolves
|
A much more powerful Werewolf, able to summon its lower brethren, and sporting a resistance to ice-based attacks... at the expense of a fire-based weakness. However, much as a Werewolf has a high weapon defense, a Lycanthrope has a high magic defense. A powerful Fire Wizard/Mage, however, can handle one without much trouble. Make sure to avoid its claw attack though; use the same methods to avoid it as you would on a Werewolf! It is one of only two non-boss monsters known to drop Ilbi throwing stars. It is also the only known monster to drop the extremely rare Blue Screamer, a level 80 2-handed sword (which is actually worth more than Ilbis). The only non boss monster that can summon weaker monsters. In versions with 4th job Advancement. Weaker versions of this monster are assigned on a plot to capture Tylus in a Henesys PQ style map. Located deep in El Nath, just before the Zombie maps. |
Dances with Balrog's Clone
|
3rd Job Boss
|
The dark clone of Dances with Balrog. In order to advance as a Crusader, White Knight, or Dragon Knight, a warrior must challenge this monster when above level 70 and defeat it. Has a powerful attack that only works melee. Wields a glowing version of the level 80 one handed axe Gaea. While it's hard to avoid in battle since a Warrior needs to go close as well, if you need to heal or re-add enchantment, you can just run away from the clone and he won't be able to hurt you at any distance. He is also able to cast Blind, striking at a warrior's weakness of lower accuracy and hurting a warrior's chances to hit the boss. |
| Grendel The Really Old's Clone File:MS Monster Grendel The Really Old's Clone.png |
3rd Job Boss
|
The dark clone of Grendel the Really Old. In order to advance as a Mage or Priest, a magician must challenge this monster when level 70 or above and defeat it. Uses 3rd Job Mage skills, such as Explosion. Slowest attacking clone and an easy fight for mages, since it cannot teleport, while they can (teleporting at the right moment negates Grendel's attacks). It can also seal however, blocking all of a magician's ability to fight. |
Athena Pierce's Clone
|
3rd Job Boss
|
The dark clone of Athena Pierce. In order to advance as a Ranger or Sniper, a bowman must challenge this monster when level 70 or above and defeat it. She is wearing a brown Lineros (level 70 female overall) and wields the famed Dark Arund. Seems to have a slower attack rate than evil dark lord, unless it decides to use strafe. The strafe fired by Athena is unusual in that it is only a single powerful arrow. Athena is also able to inflict weakness, which will interfere with jumpshots and evading Athena's attacks. |
Dark Lord's Clone
|
3rd Job Boss
|
The dark clone of the Dark Lord. In order to advance as a Chief Bandit or Hermit, a thief must challenge this monster when level 70 or above and defeat it. Also uses 3rd Job skills, such as a Hermit's Avenger. Wears a Golden version of the level 60 thief hat Identity, and wields the Dark Scarab and a Dark stud top and bottoms. It can use weaken, which is a disadvantage to assassins, so stay out of it's affliction range. The Tauromacis it summons when near death prove to be more annoying than the boss itself, so try to finish it off before they can be summoned. |
Jr. Balrog
|
Boss
|
The highest-level monster in all of Victoria Island, found in the deepest part of Ant Tunnel (at the center of the Dungeon). Drops all level 70 weapons (65 for Magician), and has some powerful attacks that can deal well over 2000 damage. Stay away unless your HP is high enough. Usually a party is needed to kill it, preferably with different classes. |
| Low Darkstar File:MS Monster Low Darkstar.png |
Appear with Papulatus
|
Kill them quickly. Their explosion attack is nothing to laugh at (unless one finds hilarity in death), normally causing instant death. In Japan Maplestory, they have nerfed this monster to making it auto-selfdestruct when touched but lowered its damage from 10k to 4k. As of Patch V.037, JMS's Auto-selfdestruct system applies to Global Darkstars, making Papulatus beatable once again. |
| Harp File:MS Monster Harpy.png |
|
It possesses a magic attack that can sometimes cause darkness, so warriors MIGHT have some trouble with them if they don't kill them fast enough. Resembles a 4th job Crossbow Master's summon hawk; found in Leafre. |

A huge, monstrous Homunculus, a failed attempt at creating a person with the powers of Alchemy. A wretched monster found in the deepest parts of Magatia's Jenumist Laboratories with its weaker counterparts. |
