As a returning player, this guide is still so helpful even now in 2024 as a new shadower main. The teleport trick with trickblade was something I didn't even realize I could do even at lv265 (it was a hyperburn tho tbf). Your explanations were so clear and really well demonstrated
I think disclosing things in this sort of format, especially adding context to "How did you get so many nodestones" is a good thing. It can be rather discouraging for newer players to think that they are missing out on "hidden strats" when in reality the creator in the video has just been hoarding a stash of items for 2+ years. Thanks for the FAQ. Thanks for being open and honest even with small details.
This is amazing. Just switched from DB to shad a week ago now and have been falling more in love with it everyday. Super flashy and sweet mechanics! Always feels great when doing the boss trick blade
good question, seems like bossing mules can get up to 1.2b with around 12-15k stat weekly w boss/ied ofc. farming nontotem gives like 380-450m hourly? seems like a mix is endgame. but id like to hear his opinion too.
For early game, I think farming mesos on a totem is better because to create bossing mules, you really need nodestones. The value you get from nodestones is incomparable to any amount of meso that you can farm in the early game as far as the damage gains you will get. I think the play for a great early game strategy would be to get to 6k legion (or at least 4k), work on getting your first character to 250+ to farm meso and nodestones along the way, and then when your nodes are maxed on your main character, you can funnel all of those nodestones into a bossing mule. I'd recommend farming on that bossing mule also, preferably with drop gear, so that as you're training it, you can get nodestones and mesos for your next bossing mule. With this new meta of bossing mules, end-game players who have already farmed a lot on their mains/secondary farmers will benefit the most because they already have the nodestones and supplies needed to make more bossing mules. Hope this was insightful :)
@@MapleBinch thanks for the info! Question about the sticky key on assassinate ME, an alliance member told me that its a lot better to use manually, that upon recording, he was able to do 11 more whole animations in just 30 seconds. That seems huge if its real, Im new to shad, but you think its possible to hit 11 more full att att ME animations within 30 secs by manually doing it?
@@ClarkGMS I'm not sure how much better it is, but I believe it. Manually weaving, even before Destiny, was always way better in terms of DPS output. It's just easier to use sticky keys for me; I feel like it doesn't make or break a boss fight clear for me.
If you really want to play shad, just switch. The nodestones would be a good investment, and the two classes share some nodestones so it wouldn't be a total loss. If you ever switch back to DB you will already have your DB nodes done. If you're hurting for nodestones, though, I'd rather just make a new shadower and grind for nodes ont hat character instead. Up to you in the end of it all :) Good luck!

This comment really made me happy. Thanks for the loving feedback! I'll try to be as realistic as I can be in my videos.

Awesome! Yeah, trickblade was one of the skills that made me fall in love with the class. Good luck on your progression!
Very Pog video for new shadowers! Well deserved growth Binch!
ILY AKKAD3.
You have a cameo in my next video btw ;')
Another thing to note is if u use trickblade v2 after sonic blow, you reduce sonic blows cd by about 80% iirc.
I don’t play maple anymore but I’ve always been a shadower main. Awesome vid!
Thank you! Glad the content is enjoyable even if you don't play the game :D
Manual weaving is good because, if you time it properly, you can animation-cancel assassinate and attack about 10% faster.
Definitely. I will learn how to do it soon now that we are in the post-Destiny world :)
This is a great vid, idk why Nexon doesn’t just make mesos explosion automatic passive
thank you for the guide! made a shadower & its amazing! love it!
Awesome! Love to hear that 😻
As a main shadower, I think doing manual Assassinate and ME will make it better dps, or your dodging reaction or even using trickblade
Yes, since I uploaded this video, I started manually weaving.
Ah so pick pocket and blood coin is like NW. Ones for bossing and ones for training.
I can meso weave and the trickblades out of assassinate. I cannot do both at the same time tho.
Yoo what’s your dagger appearance mod , and where can I find it? I think it’s anvilled if I’m not mistaken
It's called Field Dagger. It's in the kerning city shops :)
So how valid is farming mesos on a totem vs making boss mules? Which way is more cost efficient?

@@ClarkGMS I think a mix is always great. You can't avoid farming mesos in this game haha :)

i cant flash jump anymore with sticky keyys lol,
Could you make a more in-guide regarding familiars?
Sure, maybe in the future! If you check out Perhapsody on RUclips, he has a great video on familiars that you can check out in the meantime!
Kinda wanna switch from DB to Shad but I play on Reboot and I really don't feel like starting over with nodes and shit

Where u get that dagger? Nx or anvil?? Thanks
It’s an anvil. Go to Kerning City and check out the weapon shop :)
@@MapleBinch thanks! :)
Amazing thanks just switched from NL to shadower
great vid! just fyi, i think the background music that you’re using is copyrighted. Be careful,
Keep up the good vibes!
