国安在考虑要退出中超 NIKE运动鞋
在上轮国安主场与武汉队比赛的第93分钟,李玮峰与路姜在一次争抢中发生冲突,对于李玮峰恶劣的踩人受害者路姜极为恼火,起身掐住李玮峰的脖子将其放 倒,这个动作被当值主裁判王津看到,并出示红牌将路姜罚出场外。赛后,“经验老道”的国安就对足协来了个先下手为强。在比赛的当晚国安用“退出”逼宫,目 的在李玮锋。“我们认为李玮锋故意踢人在先,应该受到严惩。”在罗宁委托张路写的申诉材料中,有一条非常明确:“路姜的动作受到惩罚我们接受,但是李玮锋 也必须为他的恶劣行径受到惩罚。”正是因为这一事件导致了足协重罚李玮峰,并直接成为武汉退出的导火索,大多数球迷都认为国安是间接“谋杀”武汉的凶手。
对于这一指责国安董事长罗宁非常无奈,表示当时国安向足协申诉的是裁判,并没有针对李玮峰及武汉队。同时自己并不希望看到武汉退出这样的事情,但是很钦佩武汉俱乐部的决定。罗宁还表示国安仍然正在考虑退不退出中国足坛。
考虑到国安屡屡在与足协的“博弈”当中获利,很多球迷认为足协过于照顾北京球队。对于这一点罗宁也给予了驳斥,他坦言国安与足协虽然同处北京,但是两者 之间的关系并不亲密,国安秉着公平竞赛的原则也不会利用地理上比较接近的优势去“贿赂”足协。对于武汉的退赛行为,罗宁认为这是积怨爆发的结果,都是给足 协的不作为给逼的。同时罗宁担心明年还会有其他俱乐部退出。
NIKE ADIDAS
国安总经理李小明谈到武汉俱乐部退赛时也表示这和国安没有关系:“武汉队退出我们不方便进行过多评论,但我们是对事不对人。无论是武汉队还是其他球队, 我们都要向足协申诉,而且我们申诉的焦点是主裁判的判罚,与武汉队没有关系。即便当时不是李玮峰,是王玮峰、赵玮峰,我们的态度都是一样的。”
NIKE ADIDAS
国安队员在得知武汉真的退出后均感到意外,“那些队员倒霉了,都没球踢了,真可惜。”而主帅李章洙认为:“这个事情在全世界也是罕见的。现在中国的足球 环境很艰难,没有球迷、没有小孩踢球,国家队比赛成绩不好,还有俱乐部在联赛进行过程中退出,这对中国足球的发展很不利。

MapleStory Cheats
Cheating in every game, especially in MMORPGs, is frowned upon because they give you an unfair advantage over other players. However, if these cheats are known to many gamers already, it won’t hurt to use them. Just take note that cheating detracts the fun from gaming!
MapleStory-Online has an article on MS cheats ,such as mesos tips and tricks. Here’s a sample:
To skip level:
Press + . This can only be used once a monthFor extra mesos:
Drop about 10 Mesos. It will become 15 Mesos when picked up.Easy experience for spellcasters:
Go to Ellinia and buy some potions. Then find and fight some slimes and snails. Fight until your life, mana, and potions run out. You should have enough money to buy more potions. Do so, restore yourself, and fight again.

I played Maple Story for about 5 months, but I've quit because I'm so busy
with uni work and other commitments. I had a lot of fun and this guide
should still be relevant for quite some time. I hope you find it useful.

===============================================================
============================
0. GET THE RIGHT START
============================
To get the right start you have to think ahead, decide which job you will
take before creating your character. To make this FAQ compact, job
descriptions are not included. Refer to the official Maple Story website
for job information and skills. (http://www.maple-story-mesos.com)
Warriors will level fast as Beginners, but in later levels (15-27 approx)
Warriors level up slower than other jobs.
Thieves will level normally as Beginners, but in later levels (15-27 approx)
Thieves level-up slower than other jobs (unless they have good stars).
Bowmen will level normally as Beginners.
Magicians will level slowly as Beginners, but after becoming a Magician
and learning a few skills (claw lv 9 for example) they will level quite
fast. Magicians are quite powerful in the first and most of the second job,
however in the third job, I've heard that the other classes are stronger
============================
1. YOUR CHARACTER
============================
For each account, three characters can be made in each server. These
characters share a common storage (or bank). And so items and mesos (money)
can be safely transferred from character to character, if the characters
are in the same server.
Each server has the same maps and monsters, but sometimes they have
different events (Check the website for notices). Unfortunately a character
created in one server cannot exist in another server. However each server
usually has 20 Channels each, and your character can easily switch from
channel to channel within the same server.
If you want to delete a character, you have to remember the birthday that
you put in you sign-up. To change your password, you need your last name.
How Do You Make A Girl Char?
----------------------------
Your character will be the same gender as what you put in your sign-up. It
can't be changed.
----------------------------
1.1 Statistics
----------------------------
!!! TIP - It is important to know which stats to increase. Otherwise, you
may find that you don't have the required statistics to wear your armour or
weapons in the HIGHER LEVELS. I made this mistake and wasn't able to wear
my proper armour at level 20 because I didn't have enough STR as a Warrior.
And at level 30 I didn't have enough LUK as a Bandit to wear my dagger.
Which Stats For Job Advancement?
----------------------------
Warrior level 10 35 STR
Thief level 10 25 DEX
Bowman level 10 25 DEX
Magician level 8 20 INT
Which Stats For Later?
----------------------------
Warrior STR and DEX (more STR)
Thief LUK and DEX (more LUK) **
Bowman DEX and STR (much more DEX)
Magician INT and LUK (much more INT)
Each job only needs to apply Ability Points (AP) to only two types of
Abilities as shown above. For example, if you are a Warrior, don't place
any AP into LUK or INT.
Magicians, if you keep missing monsters, do not put any AP into DEX,put
it into INT to increase your accuracy.
** Thieves do not need strength, unless they are STR Bandits. LUK Bandits
use daggers that require no STR, while STR Bandits use daggers that require
a small amount of STR. If you are unsure, you can put 10 points into STR by
level 20 and see if you like being a STR Bandit.
AP can also be used to increase HP and MP. I suggest not doing this. HP and
MP will increase with every level-up without you adding AP to it.
Rolling The Stats Die
----------------------------
!!! TIP - Before creating your character, make sure it has good stats. If
it hasn't got stats that you are pleased with, you can click on the red die
to get new stats.
Good stats would have 4 or 5 in the abilities that your job doesn't need.
But if you can't get good stats, it's OK. But since you can roll the die as
many times as you like, you may as well try a few times.
============================
2 PLAYING THE GAME
============================
----------------------------
2.1 Basic controls
----------------------------
Switching Channels Press Menu, Change Channels
Chat Box Make sure you press the little '+' sign at the
bottom centre of your screen to see what has
been said more clearly
Healing Find a safe place and stand still for awhile
Recovering MP MP regenerates automatically.
Pick up items Press Z
World Map Press W
Inventory Press I
Statistics (AP) Press S
For more controls click on your Key Settings at the bottom right of screen.
My favourite control is F5.
----------------------------
2.2 First Few Steps
----------------------------
In the first screen, you will see two Non-Player Characters (NPCs).
Talk to Heena, she will explain BASIC MOVEMENT. She will ask you to
do something, say YES.
This is a quest, you don't have to complete it, but if you do, you will
be rewarded. In this case, the reward will be 1 experience point. It
never hurts to say YES to a quest so always say YES.
If you accepted the quest, don't press up at the portal (the place with the
glowing light from the ground). Talk to Sera, she will give you a mirror.
Then go talk to Heena, she will take you to the next screen/map.
In the 2nd screen, a creepy looking guy called Roger will take away some of
your health! Press I to open your Inventory, click the USE tab, then
double-click the Apple. Talk to Roger again, he'll give you 3 Red Potions.
You can HotKey the potions by dragging them from your Inventory into one of
your Quick Slot keys (bottom right corner of your screen).
In the 3rd screen there's another simple quest. In the 4th screen talk to
Peter, he'll give you some experience.
Where Did You Get That Hat?
----------------------------
Soon you will see Maria, she'll give you an easy quest, if you complete
her quest she'll give you a hat (a bandana or skullcap).
Where Did You Get That Weapon?
----------------------------
Talk to Biggs in South Perry, You'll need 30 Blue Snail Shells and 10
Orange Mushroom Caps. If you complete this quest, you will receive a lv 5
Razor, or a lv 8 Fruits Dagger.
For Orange Mushroom Caps, go to the map to the right side of
top centre of this map you will be able to kill the Orange Mushrooms easily
by standing on the centre platform, where you can attack the Mushrooms
without being hit by them. Magicians can skip this quest if it is too hard.
----------------------------
2.3 Items
----------------------------
Pick up everything especially mesos, ores, potions, armor and weapons. Items
such as Snail Shells, Mushroom Spores and Mushroom Caps can be sold to any
store for mesos. Arrows are worth 0 mesos to stores, so you may as well pick
them up and give them to an archer later when you reach
What Are Ores For?
----------------------------
Ores are used in creating Jewels or metal Plates, which are used to create
items later in the game. Keep all the ores you find and talk to the NPCs in
All other ores you may either keep or sell to other players.
Picking Up Items
----------------------------
!!! When you kill a monster, YOU are the only person who can pick up the
items that the monster drops after it dies. If you don't pick up the items
after about 10 seconds, ANYBODY may pick up the items. And if you drop an
item from your Inventory, anybody can pick it up and you shouldn't expect
to get it back.
When two or more people help kill a monster, usually the person who killed
it the most is allowed to pick up the items. The other person won't be able
to pick up the item unless it has been left there for about 10 seconds.
Looting
----------------------------
When you see someone busily killing monsters and not picking up their items
for a long time, after about 10 seconds, anyone can pick up those items,
looting is when someone else picks up those items.
Looting is ok when a person is only interested in gaining exp. and not
money. If you never see them picking up items, even after you have picked
up a few of their items, then there is no problem. If you start picking up
some items and the person killing, also begins picking up the items, then
you should stop, and let them get their items.
Once, a Beginner accused me of looting from her when she helped me kill a
monster. I didn't loot from her, the item belonged to me. If she had killed
the monster completely, then I wouldn't have been able to pick up the item
so soon after the monster died, if the item had belonged to her... NOOB
How Much Are Screws? (as of July 2005)
----------------------------
These prices are from what I have seen in Scania, they are the usual amount
other players in
NOTE: The prices may change.
Ores 1k (1000 mesos).
Steel Ores 1k, sometimes 1.5k or 2k.
Diamond Ores 7k sometimes 3k sometimes 10k
Gold Ores 10k
Black Crystal Ores (BC) 13k sometimes 15k
Screws 1.5 - 2k each
Leather 150 - 200 mesos each
Item Library
----------------------------
The Item Library on the official websites don't really cut it. For a
detailed item, monster, quest and map library, visit www.hidden-street.net
----------------------------
2.4 Hunting
----------------------------
Beginners that plan to become Magicians should hunt in the Snail Hunting
Ground I or II on Maple island, this map is full of Green and Blue Snails.
Probably best to stay here until you reach level 8. You can do Maria's Hat
quest and then come back to this map to level up. I suggest not doing Biggs
quest because it will take a long time to collect the items for someone so
physically weak. But of course if you really want to do it, no problem.
If you find it hard to level-up, keep killing those Green and Blue Snails.
Monsters In
----------------------------
Name HP EXP. Advice
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Green Snails 8 3 Great for Beginners and Magicians
Blue Snails 15 4 Great for Everyone
Shroom 20 5 Great for Everyone
Red Snails 45 8 Beginner Magicians shouldn't waste
time on these
Orange Mushrooms 80 15 These are tough for Beginners,
you'll kill 4 Blue Snails faster
for MORE exp. AND THEY MOVE FAST.
You'll find a lot of these to the
right of
Other Easy Monsters In Victoria Island
----------------------------
Name HP EXP. Advice
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stump 65 8 Easier to just kill 2 Blue Snails,
(unless you can kill in 3-5 shots
it's not worth going for)
Slime 50 10 They move fast
Pig 75 15 They move fast
Dark stump 250 18 They move slow
Ribbon Pig 120 20 They move fast
Kill Stealing
----------------------------
Kill Stealing (KS or ksing) is when someone weak is trying to kill a
monster to gain exp. and a stronger player will come and kill it and steal
exp. It's not such a problem in
Beginner, so this is a good place to train.
============================
3.
============================
You can leave
ship ride from South Perry. When you leave you won't be able to come back.
Henesys are also good for Beginners to train.
!!! I suggest not exploring the other towns while you are a Beginner and a
newbie, go level up and get a job first, then go exploring. (Beginners
wanting to become Magicians will not train as fast near Perion, Ellinia or
Kerning, unless they stick to Green snails, because Slimes(50HP) and
Stumps(65HP) take forever to kill when you are doing 1-3 damage).
When you die, if you have a job, you'll lose about 5-10% exp. and you'll be
transported to the nearest Town. If you have your Mini Map extended
you'll be able to see an icon. The icon represents the nearest town.
Talk to every NPC that you see, this way you will probably find out if they
are useful to you. For example some NPCs synthesize items, refine ores,
store things, process wood, create screws, create arrows or give quests.
-----------------------------------------------------------
#### WARNING TO BEGINNERS IN
-----------------------------------------------------------
How Do You Get Out Of Here? What Is This Place?
----------------------------
!!! Do not take a ride in the black VIP TAXI to the Ant Tunnel. You will
end up in a place not for Beginners at all. When you die (There's no way
you won't die), you'll find yourself in Sleepywood, the town in the Dungeon.
To get out of here, you'll have to buy a Return Scroll to
someone for 500 - 1000 meso. Even if someone is nice enough to give you a
scroll for free, you'll have wasted 1000 mesos on the VIP TAXI ... DONT
TAKE THE TAXI. I don't know why they allow Beginners to have a discount on
this Taxi, it just means a lot of confusion.
----------------------------
3.1 First Job Advancement: Where Do You Go?
----------------------------
After you have trained to the required level, talk to the ticket guy in
you need to go to, for 80 - 120 mesos (very cheap discount price for
Beginners only).
---Warriors--- at Perion, go to the very top of the map and enter the
portal talk to the NPC Dances with Balrog.
---Thieves--- at
go down the ladder and talk to the
---Bowmen--- at Henesys, near the centre of the map, enter the park and go
to the far right and enter the building to talk to the NPC Athena Pierce.
---Magicians--- at Ellinia, go to the very top and enter the portal and
talk to the NPC Grendel the Really Old.
Buying Weapons And Clothes: Can Someone Spare 3k?
----------------------------
!!! When you make your job advancement, you should buy new armour in your
home town. By this level, you will probably not have enough mesos to buy
everything you want, so deal with it :/ you have a job, go earn the money!
Firstly buy a new weapon, then topwear and bottomwear, if you have enough
mesos, buy a hat and then shoes. If you can't afford everything, don't
worry, you really only need the new weapon. If you can't afford that, you
probably didn't pick up all the mesos that your monsters dropped did you?
Well in that case, you've just got to fight some more monsters with what
you have until you have enough mesos.
!!! Don't Beg. You are a Beginner (or were), of course you're poor! You
have to work at your job to become rich. This game can be challenging, but
it's not too hard, so don't be LAZY go hunt some monsters to find some
money and gain exp. And while you're at it meet some players and have fun.
How Should I Spend My Skill Points?
----------------------------
!!! TIP - By the time you reach your second job advancement, you will not
have received enough Skill Points (SP) to master all the skills available
to you. So, you'll have to spend those points wisely. Find an In-Depth FAQ
for your job to find out how to spend your SP.
How Do You Use Skills?
----------------------------
Press K to spend your skill point. If you use your Skill Point on a skill
that uses MP, drag the Icon into one of your Hot Keys, or open your Key
Settings and drag it into there.
How Do You Throw Stars?
----------------------------
You must be a Thief and you need to wear a Claw. The first claw is called
a Garnier and can be bought from the Kerning City Weapon Store. Buy some
Subi Throwing stars from the guy selling armour. Now you can throw stars
using your attack button.
If you are too close to a monster, you will punch it instead of throwing
a star at it (I find this annoying). Punching will do very little damage.
============================
4. PARTIES
============================
----------------------------
4.1 Creating Parties
----------------------------
Once you get a job, you will be able to create a party.
- Press R
- click on the 'Party' tab
- click 'Create'
- Right-Click on a person
- Select 'View Info'
- Click 'Invite Party' once
There can be up to 6 people in a party. To leave your party, click Leave.
You will not be able to invite someone who is already in a party. They will
have to leave their party before joining yours.
Party Chat
----------------------------
When you are in a party, press 2 to talk to members in you party. The chat
text will appear in pink. You will be able to talk to members that are in
different maps or channels. Press 1 to talk to everyone again.
----------------------------
4.2 Party Experience
----------------------------
Generally:
- Experience is shared among all party members that are in the same map.
- If you kill a monster you will get more exp. than the other party members
will get for that kill.
- Higher level members will receive more exp than the lower level members.
In parties, mesos are shared but items are not. Items can be picked up by
anyone in a party.
Pan2005: Mesos In A Party - For 2 Members --> 60% For Collector & 40% For
Other Member. For more than 2, the ratio will be a bit different, but still,
the Collector will be getting most.
One problem with parties is who gets to keep that rare piece of armour worth
50k? The person who killed the monster that dropped it? Sure, but what if
they helped you kill it? I was once in a party where I completely killed the
monster that dropped the rare item and I managed to pick up the item too,
but the other party member begged me if they could have it. I personally
don't like parties, but they are useful sometimes. You don't need to join
parties to make friends though, just start talking to people.
Party Experience Example 1
----------------------------
Let’s say we have a 2-person party with 2 lv 10 players.
Slimes give 10 exp. if you kill them completely by yourself.
In a party if you kill a Slime, you'll get something like 6 exp. while
the other member in the party will get 4 exp.
Party Experience Example 2
----------------------------
Another 2-person party, 1 person lv 35 the other lv 8.
If the lv 35 kills a Green Mushroom, they will get the entire 26 exp.
points and the lv 8 will get 0 exp.
If the lv 35 kills a Slime, they get 9 exp. and the lv 8 will get 1 exp.
============================
5. GENERAL TIPS
============================
----------------------------
5.1 Sleepywood, Ant Tunnel, Ossyria And Florina Beach
----------------------------
Sleepywood is in the Dungeon, the easiest way is to walk from Henesys. But
I recommend being level 17-20 before visiting. Make sure you have a Return
Scroll to Henesys or some other town before you go, just incase you find the
place too tough for you to get out again. Sleepywood Return Scrolls can be
bought in the Sauna in the Hotel in Sleepywood.
To walk to Sleepywood from Henesys, take the top right portal at Henesys to
get onto
monsters at the bottom of those pits. Eventually you'll find Luke the
Security Guy, take the portal that he's standing near. You'll enter a
Forest, here the top portal will take you towards
while the middle portal will be Sleepywood. Don't take the bottom portal
unless you are lv 25+ because there are Curse Eyes here. Also, the bottom
portal is one of those tricky portals, like a
to get back, is to travel through the map and reach another portal.
Ant Tunnel is just right of Sleepywood. The monsters are tough here for low
level players.
Ossyria is another place and the website suggests that you be lv 35, this
is a good guideline. But if you want to visit out of curiosity I recommend
lv 25+, but the monsters will be tough! You can go there from Ellinia, it
cost 5k and make sure you have 5k to get back. Bring lots of potions to go
exploring. Since MP pots are slightly cheaper in Ellinia, don't forget to
stock-up before leaving to Ossy.
Tip from lilkrndude146: The armour and weapon shop in El Nath (a town in
Ossyria) is expensive for some items. You'll probably do better buying the
items off other players back in
reach the levels to be buying this stuff, you'll have some experience in
buying and trading items off other players (at sensible prices).

5.2 Hunting Effectively
----------------------------
If you like fighting in crowded places where the monsters re-spawn quickly,
fight monsters that only need 1-2 shots to kill (maybe 3). If you take any
longer you'll become surrounded by too many monsters.
If you like less crowded places, where there's only you or one other person,
there will be less monsters. This will mean more walking, but you can kill
the monsters slower, so go for monsters that die in 2-4 shots. - Warriors
and Bandit Thieves may like to kill monsters that take up to 6 shots.
To level-up faster, use potions (pots). Less waiting will mean more killing
and more exp. Make sure you pick up all your items and mesos if you can't
afford pots. On the other hand, if you're using pots up like crazy, and you
don't seem to be making a profit, you're fighting the wrong monsters
(or you're just crap :P) - MP pots are slightly cheaper in Ellinia.

5.3 Return Scrolls: Selling All Town Scrolls 1k
----------------------------
Return Scrolls, are great and are much cheaper than a Taxi (unless you're
still a Beginner). After getting your first job, and acquiring some money,
walk around
from each town. On the way, you can explore, try to find hidden portals and
kill a few new monsters.
Return Scrolls cost 500 mesos at shops. And they can be used in almost all
maps, so they are more convenient than taxis.
Taxis are not available in Sleepywood. So buy a Return Scroll before
visiting, otherwise you may have to pay 1k to buy one off someone. I used
to always be in Sleepywood selling Return Scrolls for 1k =) .
----------------------------
5.4 Fame: What Is Fame For?
----------------------------
Fame is used for higher levels. There is a quest at level 30 that requires
10 fame, and some high-level armour requires a certain amount of fame to
wear. If you're poor, don't bother trying to buy fame, you don't need it
yet. Save your money for armour or potions.
from Pan2005: The kinds of equipment that use fame are usually black or
are called Dark 'something'.
You can't fame someone until you're lv 15. You can only use your fame once
a day. And you can only fame the same person once a month.
Higher-level players like to buy fame. They may offer you 1 - 6k for your
fame. If you need money, sell your fame. Currently the normal price for fame
is 5k. People may also offer items for fame such as 20 leathers or 4 ores.
To fame someone for items or money, right-click them and select 'View Info',
then press 'Request Trade'. Keep the Info box open. When they accept your
trade, and agree to give you the money or items for your fame, you click the
Orange Up Arrow to increase their fame, while the trade box is still open.
Then they will give you your money. Press the
accept their money or items
Fame nor LUK has nothing to do with rare item drops.
----------------------------
5.5 Trading
----------------------------
To request a trade with someone right-click them and View Info, click on
'Request Trade'.
If someone requests a Trade with you, be nice and say 'Hi' or 'Hello'.
Responding with 'Yes?' or 'What?' just seems rude to me.
Good places to buy or sell items are at towns. The best town for this is
Perion. Visit Perion Channel 1 for the biggest market, here it may be hard
to click on people, so instead type '/trade username' to trade with someone.
Visit Perion Channel 1 and just watch everybody trade. Sometimes you'll see
the prices of various items. Occasionally these prices will be over the top.
But just watch for a few minutes while you regain your health and you will
learn alot about trading and prices. It's not a bad idea to do this every
now and again after you reach lv 30. If Perion Channel 1 is too full, try
Channel 2.
============================
6 QUEST ADVICE
============================
After you've done these quests, there are plenty more which are only
accessible by reaching a certain level. Visit www.maplesea.com for more
quests (shows more quests than mapleglobal).
Strangely, all these quests are pretty hard for the level that you can begin
them at, except John's quest. For all the others, you'll have to level-up
alot more to finish them without help. You'll probably be lv 25+ when you
finish all of them... :/
----------------------------
6.1 Quests For Beginners
----------------------------
Fixing Blackbull's House
----------------------------
Talk to Blackbull in Perion.
Items Needed: 30 Branches, 50 Firewoods.
Prize: lv 15 Steel Shield (most times) or a lv 25 Triangular Shield.
Branches will be easy to get from Stumps. Firewood can be found from Axe
Stumps and Dark Axe Stumps. Don't go for the Dark Axe Stumps they have 550
HP. If you're a warrior, try this quest at lv 14, so that you have a shield
for lv 15. All other classes, don't worry about this quest until you can
kill Axe Stumps easily.
The shields can only be used by Warriors. If you're not a warrior, you can
sell the lv 15 shield to a shop for 3k. The lv 25 shield should be sold to
a warrior because it can't be bought from any store in
----------------------------
6.2 Quests For Level 15+
----------------------------
Maya and the Weird Medicine
----------------------------
Talk to Maya in the Mushroom House in Henesys
Needed: 20 Octo Legs, 50 Squishy Liquids, 50 Leaves, 40 Charms of Undead
Prize: level 25 Brown Bamboo Hat
Since you can't use the prize until lv 25, you can take your time.
You'll need to travel a lot for this quest, Maya will want you to get
Medicine by talking to Teo in Lith Harbour, He'll tell you to go see
someone else and so on ... :/ Octos are found near
dropped by Dark Stumps found near Perion, Squishy Liquid dropped by Slimes.
Charms of Undead are dropped by Undead Mushrooms found in the Ant Tunnel in
the Dungeon, they are not easy to kill by low-level players.
Luke the Security Guy
----------------------------
Talk to Luke at the Entrance to the Dungeon from Henesys.
Items Needed: 1 Bowl of Salad, 10 Stirge Wings, 100 Jr. Necki Skins
Prize: 1 Refined Jewel at random (Diamond if you're lucky)
This quest is tough! There is no time limit on quests. Most Magicians,
Thieves, Bowmen can't hit the Jr. Necki until lv 27+. Warriors will have to
wait even longer.
Jr Neckis are little green snakes, found in the Subway, Sewer, and in some
parts of the Dungeon. Stirges are purple bats found in the Subway and Deep
Ant Tunnel. Bowl of Salad can be bought (A Use Item) from the 24Hr Shop in
the Deep Ant Tunnel.
John's Pink Flower Basket
----------------------------
Talk to John in
Items Needed: at least 10 Pink Viola Flowers
Prize: 30 Screws
This is the first of MANY jumping quests. If you can become good at this
quest, you'll be able to do all the other jumping quests. So have patience
and practice a lot, when you get tired, take a break, fight some monsters,
then practice some more. Pink Viola's can't be traded.
Buy a couple of Return Scrolls to
Sleepywood, then buy some Sleepywood Return Scrolls from the Sauna and talk
to the Mysterious Statue. After getting the flowers (double-click on them),
scroll back to Lith, give the flowers to John. If you didn't get 10 flowers,
scroll back to Sleepywood and do it again.
NOTE: buying the Scrolls is optional, you can walk if you're too tight!
After you complete the quest, you can go to the Mysterious Statue and do
the jumping quest again and again. Each time you reach the flowers you'll
randomly receive 2 mineral ores (no gold).
When you reach lv 30, you'll no longer be able to receive the 2 ores from the
Forest of Patience Stages 1 & 2. You'll have to do John's lv 30 quest instead,
where you'll do Stages 3 & 4.

Prize 1: 50 Lemons
Prize 2: 100 Cakes
Prize 3: level 20 Gloves for your job
Bubblings are in the Subway in Kerning City. The Bubblings may be difficult
to kill. Try this quest at lv 19, maybe even lv 25.
When you complete the first request, talk to Nella repeatedly, don't leave
until she gives you the second request. (Just keep clicking on her, don't
listen to her lies!)
Talk to JM From Tha Streetz and select 'Create Materials' to find out how
to make Processed Wood and Screws. You probably won't have the materials
to make screws, so either do John's Flower Quest to get 30 screws, or buy
them off people for 1.5k or 2k each.
Talk to Nella repeatedly after completing the second request.
Pure Water can be bought at Sleepywood or 24Hr Shop in the Ant Tunnel. Octos
