MapleStory/Beginner Guide

The Beginner class essentially serves the purpose of being an introductory class. Though Beginners obtain ability points upon leveling up, Beginners do not lose experience upon death. It is advised, however, that one makes not dying a habit before advancing to the first job because experience is lost once the advancement is made. It is also strongly advised that the job advancement is made at the appropriate level (8 for Magicians, 10 for Warriors/Archers/Thieves). Some people choose to completely ignore the job advancement, and play MapleStory as a permanent Beginner. This is a challenging path to take.http://strategywiki.org/wiki/MapleStory/Beginner_Guide
