1. Intro: The Importance of Mesos and Video Introduction
In MapleStory, Mesos are essential for item setups and boss strategies.
Here's how to earn 100 billion Mesos using only in-game content without spending a dime.
2. First Method: Boss Runs
You can earn 6.5 billion Mesos weekly by doing Normal Baldr, Gunny, and Hard Hilla boss runs.
Including Black Mage profits, you can earn 27.5 billion Mesos weekly. With free items, you can earn over 30 billion Mesos per month.
3. Second Method: Hunting
Hunting for 3 hours a day can yield approximately 360 million Mesos and 55 shards.
Based on a shard price of 6.5 million Mesos, you can earn 720 million Mesos daily and 21.6 billion Mesos monthly.
4. Third Method: Don't Waste Mesos
Utilize Shadow Force events when Starforcing and be cautious when buying from the Auction House.
Direct crafting without considering expected value can lead to losses.
5. How to Earn Mesos for Users Without a Foundation: PC Cafe Gathering
After reaching level 35, learn the Gathering skill and move to the Professional Gathering Farm in the Maple Admin Town to gather purple flowers.
You can obtain approximately 500 seeds when using all your fatigue. Based on a Juniper Berry Seed price of 700,000 Mesos, you can earn a total of 350 million Mesos.
The hourly wage for PC cafe gathering is 260 million Mesos.
It requires less Drop/Meso gear compared to item farming, and the rising price of item farming tickets makes it promising.
You can receive mileage, a magnetic pet, and VIP sauna tickets as PC cafe rewards.
6. Disadvantages of PC Cafe Gathering
Incurs PC cafe costs and yields less experience and Sol Erda.
Requires high fatigue.
It's best to do PC cafe gathering only until a certain foundation is established, then switch to item farming.
7. Building a Foundation for Item Farming: Drop/Meso Gear
Drop/Meso gear (items that increase drop rate and Meso acquisition rate) improve hunting efficiency.
Drop rate increases the drop rate of boss-exclusive items, Sol Erda, and Core Gemstones, while Meso acquisition rate increases the amount of Mesos earned while hunting.
In addition to Drop/Meso gear, it's essential to secure drop/Meso acquisition rate through abilities and buffs.
As a minimum foundation, aim for a total of 140% drop/Meso acquisition rate through Drop/Meso gear, secure all available drop/Meso acquisition rate from skills, Union, Artifacts, and abilities, and achieve one-shot kill in areas above Sellas.
8. Cost to Build a Foundation
One-shot kill in hunting grounds can be resolved with item burning, and costs are only incurred for Drop/Meso gear.
You can create Drop/Meso gear rings by applying Legendary Event Ring Scrolls to event rings and using Meister Cubes.
You can achieve 140% with approximately 5 billion Mesos by purchasing Drop/Meso Acquisition Rate Kafra Earrings and a single line Drop Rate Michael's New Glasses.
If you don't have enough coins to get an event ring, you'll need to buy it from the Auction House.
The minimum cost is 5 billion Mesos for 4 event rings, and 11 billion Mesos if you don't buy event rings.
9. Drop and Meso Acquisition Rate Ratio
In the past, it was important to aim for 67% drop rate and 100% Meso acquisition rate, but the efficiency of drop and Meso acquisition rate has become similar since the release of Sol Erda fragments.
It's beneficial to adjust the ratio according to your preference.
Mesos are guaranteed to drop from monsters starting from 67% drop rate.
10. Efficient Meso Usage
If you've established a minimum foundation, it's best to prioritize Drop/Meso acquisition rate items.
Earning Mesos is important, but using them efficiently is also crucial.
Avoid direct crafting as much as possible.
11. Caution Regarding Trading Information
There are ways to earn Mesos through trading, transferring, and hoarding, but newbies are likely to lose money if they follow them.
Most YouTube trading videos are exaggerated advertisements, and buying trading methods is inefficient.
