Just remember: It's not a war crime the first time!

I read the manga maple in anime is very different from manga, in manga they showed maple as very intelligent player all the skills she put in her blade n sheild are not coincidence she understood wt skill arrangements will give her best results.

@charmy1141 That's believable, usually in mangas, some MCs tend to have a more intelligent mindset compared to their anime adaption, this was especially true in yugioh mangas

a sertent german is problably asking to make her his apprentisc XD

But a deviljho doesn’t care

its not a warcrime the first time

That's a really valid strat ngl, AoE DoT poison with paralysis is busted

the walking war crime!

😂😂

Superman move!

the one punch man bobblehead scene fits well next to this

Full Defense, in that game this stat gives percent "Damage Resist" and flat (!) "Damage Resist", after %DR will be applied. Her armor set amplify stats by being destroyed (infinite stacks + will recover after some time) or after using "Devour" (the reason why skill was reworked after this Event)

nah its full def resistance build

100% defense build. At the cost of . IIRC she doesn't even have a lot of health, but it doesn't matter when nothing can get through.

@@Mandemon1990 She is also not very fast.

​​@@PrototypeMajorshe's so op that the devs are getting affected lol😅

lmao, I've always said that maple is a walking warcrime

pfft OMG i almost fell out of my chair, she turned it into the Geneva suggestion

@@Dr.McstabyGeneva Instructions

Geneva suggestion

Let's not forget, the writer gave us in universe explanation for why the MC has plot armor... That's not something that typically gets an in universe explanation.

In Pokemon terms she's a Chansey 😂

@@caaltaes732 Na, in pokemon terms she's gone well beyond that into full Blissy.

In pokemon term she s chansey whit wonder guard,revenge,toxic and gift. All spells whit infinity PP

Could be my. Daughter agewise. Be careful.

and in the meantime make it worse with every single thing they do

They nerf her several times adding in ignore defense skills, and a few other examples. Just the whole point is Maple gets more and more outrageous as the series goes on.

@@shadeling6717 And then they just give up and use her as promotional device

​@@skell6134 Which was the best decision they ever made.

Mace-kun gave her a head pat... and failed.

GOOD GOD HAVE SOME DECENCY, CITIZEN! This is a teenager we are talking about here!

@@karlwikman3874 And she is fictional Your point is ?

Is virtual pounding no laws being broken.

I mean,she will get an skill which is an aoe skill,making everything around her deal damage over time and that damage is dependant to her defence stat

​@@bhinglaberinto7450 how fucking busted is that lmao

@@rieandcanatuan3754 remember,her def at the end of 2nd season was over 10k+,im talking the LN here so yeah.Actually,that skill got paired with another skill that basically made her a god in that game

In the end they all just gave up. XD

@@josephsuh525 Made her a Boss they did. Since no other path for fairness was possible.

​​@@Elmithianthat and people were getting mad they were nerfing her, like she's a dark souls boss or hardcore raid. Edit: I was mistaken, the ARMOR was from her soloing the boss, the SKILLS (both the aoe and one shot shield tap) were both gained from literally eating the boss, which dealt massive poison damage. Plus she can only use it as much as she can because of an oversight, she put them on her equipment and due to that they didn't cost mana. They likely didn't expect anyone to gain access to gear that could hold skills this early into the game's life cycle.

nah the game is just poorly unbalanced

Nope, She maxed out here defense and keeps fining super rare (one of a kind) items. She keeps breaking the system even as the admins nerf her. She was nerfed after this event. But then she fine another rare item. Most of these items are easter eggs the admin put in that no one should find.

@@PeterParker-tb7ceWhat more is that no other max players can max out one stats anymore as well. So that another maple wouldn’t come to exist

​@@fallensnow8859they can others, just not defense.

Not really... She just uses status and counters in this one event...

Her offense is behaving against the game rules. With no stats in intelligence or anything like that, her special attacks should be really weak. That is litteraly the point of having those stats. Yet everyone was completely defenseless, with no resistances or anything. When those same attacks were used against Mapple, even before she had her maxed out poison immunity, she was able to withstand them long enough to heal herself. Yet when she uses them, they suddenly work as if she is expert caster. And this theme continues with all other skills too. When she transforms, suddenly fact that she has no stats in attack/agility/mana/intelligence/dexterity does not matter at all. She is fully capable of keeping up with those who have builds oriented towards those stats, while still having her maxed out vitality on top of that. Already half of the stats in this manga/anime have no meaning. Intelligence, Dexterity and Mana do not seem to play any role at all because it does not matter how much mana you have or how high your intelligence is, if you can just ignore those stats and do insane damage simply by aquiring skills as a reward.

@@iglidor The difference in in the source of the poison, the poisons she was taking in the beginning were from a low level enemy, and thus not that effective against someone who would naturally have high hp (you have to imagine the shield class has high starting hp since they're meant to be a tank,) whereas her poison and paralysis skills are all from high level enemies like the dungeon boss, Hydra, thus highly potent even with minimal investment. This is also assuming that status ailments even scale with things like intelligence since most games just have a flat rate based on the skill, not the players stats. The transformations also offset her other issues since they're built to give a flat buff in certain stats, thus she can become strong even without investment into anything other than defense. If someone like Pain used the same transformations then he'd hit way harder, that's why both have a massive cooldown period of one day. Maple is only able to ignore mana here because her shield has devour attached to it (hence why they had to nerf the skill to have a daily limit,) and then devour converts the victims into mana crystals that Mable can use (something the anime glosses over with a brief bit of text regarding the shield, though the source material explains it better.) You also have to recognize the possibility that some of Maple's damage is likely defense based, since that's something fairly common for shield classes, sure she won't normally hit as hard as an offense build, but that's where her out of the ordinary playstyle comes into play since she naturally finds skill most players wouldn't because they require doing things most people never would (players can't even replicate her actions to acquire said skills since the devs made sure to make the most problematic ones, like Hydra, harder to acquire.) If you pay attention to what's actually going on then you'd realize that Maple's playstyle only works because she is an outlier among outliers who doesn't behave the way most gamers would and then gets to these skills before anyone else. The only one that you could argue fits with your argument is Machine Lord since she got that through a quest, though that's also assuming the quest wasn't more of a one time only thing since it also changes the area after completion (wouldn't be surprised honestly, the devs probably didn't anticipate Maple being the first to find it.) Obviously the world of the game isn't perfect, but then again, what MMO is? It's not exactly uncommon for players to find a build that trivializes everything else the player could invest in if you're willing to sacrifice certain things (like the fact that Maple is normally slow as crap, meaning that travel around town would be aggravating to most players, thus making the build rather inconvenient for your average player, regardless of the battle potential.)

@@homerman76 And that lack of traveling ability is why she never moves from this one spot during the entire event. She legit was just standing there letting everyone come to her because of the high amount of points they would get. If they avoided her and stayed away none of them would have been killed.

I must agree. her offense skills are great. she defeated a poisonous dragon when her best attack was to bite the enemy. not even Son Goku has ever managed to kill an enemy by eating it.

🥵

Biggest reason to watch this anime imo, along with the fun of seeing what bizarre and OP power-up she'll get next

This was right at the start of the series, mind you, when no one knew of her power. In fact, this was likely how most people found out the hard way.

PVP doesn't seem common in the game, and she goes so far against what people expect because this is people's first exposure to her. he stats are not common knowledge and she's so easy going, would expect a small bumbling naïve bubbly character, with a class known for the monikers "Tank" or "Damage sponge" to have a kill count?

especially in the thousands@@livetoserve966

Because back during the very beginning of the game, nobody had ANY IDEA of the monster Maple was, let alone the one she was GOING to become. Later on, her fame catches on and now only the likes of Mii and Payne (or rather, their entire guilds "Flame Emperors" and "Holy Sword") are willing to face her in a straight fight, _despite Maple's own guild "Maple Tree" being pretty crazy as well._

That is definitely my standard when playing online.
