  • NAO INTRODUCTIONS

    Late I know but was told by a friend and happy to do this. Probably too late for prize consideration and that's fine.

    IGN (CURRENT):
    My main character in NA is known as Giantqueen. Often referred to as GQ or Queenie
    Currently: Giantqueen+Tarlach (north American servers)
    EDIT: back to Giantqueen 6/30/19

    What made you choose the name when you started?

    Actually put no effort into it. Entered the name and it was available. Said cool and created the character. It was a great name and at the time I had no idea it would become my main character years later in 2012 when I came back after my 2 year rage quit due to the password campaign fiasco making my main character not exist. Funny enough, I only chose that character solely because it had more AP than the alternatives. I decided that I would not use any IRL money on the game since. It's a rule.

    Did you ever wish you could change it? If so, why?

    Not Giantqueen's. No, but if I had to then I would have taken my friends name, Queen. My original, character yes because of friends making fun of it when you split up the spelling. Publically humiliated my IGN as somebody whose always looking for dirty hookups. SMH our immature pre-teen idiocy lol.

    SERVER YOU STARTED ON:

    Lute (korean)
    Tarlach (north america)

    Is the server you first chose the one you played on the most?

    I played the most on the lute server. Also I played on all the Korean and NA servers for some time. Trigger of Ruairi was a great friend back in G2. Even played Taiwan and Japan's servers for a few months.

    Is there a specific reason you chose it over others?
    Group of irl friends made a really stacked character. It still kicks butt to this day.

    YEAR YOU STARTED:
    2008

    What kept you playing?

    My friends. I am very on and off with this game. I quit after enlightenment update hit in NA but you can still catch me afk a lot of time when I visit. I prefer to play in private servers.

    FAVORITE COLOR SCHEME:

    White and red, since they are my favorite colors.

    Do you incorporate your favorite color?

    I try to. On outfits I like, I will do this. On humans I will go absolute ham. It's too bad I hate almost every outfit available to female giants. As for elves, I've never been a fan of pointy ears.

    How many different color schemes do you think you’ve gone through?

    I know what they are. Red and black, white and black, and red and white on my main. I rock pure color schemes or a certain look for specific characters.

    FAVORITE THING ABOUT MABI?

    Lots that I love and hate about Mabi. My favorite is the freedom in the OG combat system, especially as a human. You can use any skillset you like. Human is my favorite race by far. Always has been.

    What is your favorite location in mabi? Why?

    That's a hard one since I keep find new places to like.

    Since the beginning of time though, I really liked Baol dungeon's lava and also walking all over and even inside and under Raspa volcano. If you cant tell, I've always been a fan of breaking games which includes glitches and exploits. also the path connecting barri dungeon and tir na nog with the little red and blue path is one of my favorites. I always loved the square in tir and the stage in emain as well. Adds a ton of personality.

    I found Avon and shide's water reflection lovely. I am a big fan of the aesthetic.

    As for environment I am a fan of snachenta and longa dungeon. Thankfully those 2 soundtracks haven't been overplayed in my head.

    As for places that disliked due to overplaying, those include falias and albey dungeon. I liked the dragon statue in Gairech but the sound of pickaxes absolutely drives me nuts, similar to the sheep sounds in southern tir fields.

    The moon deserves a mention for being cool but not a favorite of mine.

    Oversaes, I've always adored nekojima island. I really enjoyed the time I spent there and running the dungeon with randoms.


    If there was one thing you could change about mabi, what would it be?

    So many things I've wanted to change. Many which have come to pass and many more that have not. One that has still yet to happen is instance matching and a simple easily accessible system to broadcast and access these parties.

    In my head, the absolute thing I would have banned from existence are reforges. They overcomplicate the game and are a big argument for pay to win. Having to live with a similar system in maplestory called potentials really put a bad taste in my mouth.

    A close second would be one central pvp arena and ranking system with betting, match recording, and speculation available. Of course the actions available would need to be adjusted, especially combat skills. The larger the battles available, the better. Similar setups in pvp zones as old school runescape.

    FAVORITE CHARACTER/NPC IN MABI?

    Heledd the alchemist NPC in Tara by far. I think she's very pretty.
    Second favorite would be Cichol by a long shot; he was my favorite before Heledd was introduced.
    Rua, Nao, Morrhigan, Endelyon, and the blunt female spirit ego have been long time favorites since their introduction, especially after learning their story and completing their questlines.

    I like Ibbies design but she has 0 personality. Inflames Lee and sick dude in residential area are chill. Think his name started with an N. If I had to venture a guess it would be Nak.

    Nowadays I really like Phine and actually giving Ferhgus a 2nd shot. Meryl non captain form and altam can be attractive at times. I like the design of Neamhain, goddess of light and Kaour as well.

    Edern and dark knight/G3 Ruairi are also fairly cool in my book. I remember liking andras, ailiona, Pan, and Fallon? Cai? for some reason that I cannot recall.

    Who is your least favorite? Why?

    Mysterious cat. It cannot be trusted. Just do your business, take your free stuff, and get out of there. Don't deal with this shady character more than you have to.

    Gilmore, Lucas and Ferhgus can be pretty terrible as well. Lots of people seem to hate Millia for being annoying and anyone else with a bad personality.

    Which generation did you enjoy the most?

    G2 because of the fond memories. I really enjoyed camping out at ciar, the pure simplicity, and the difficulty of the game. Many of the events and content that year were kickazz. They were so legendary that the reruns were toned down so much to keep the sh*t show from repeat. Think the original snowball fight or original capture the flag event levels.

    The glitch exploits were really fun to use as well. SoG, infinite animations, and wall hacks being among my favorites.

    What I won't miss are the bots though. They still haunt the Korean servers.

    G3 was a blast as well especially with pvp.
    G8 was really fun in NA that summer was especially amazing. I remember being so pumped up with the exploration event and the initial release of the final hit skill. Zombie summer defend the fort was fun.


    YOUR FIRST RANK 1 Skill? (If applicable)

    Oh that's easy. Its combat mastery. Do you like being dead? Well I sure did not. Smash was a very close second. Skill was so freaking straightforward to rank and you smashed almost everything in existence. Although not as useful as windmill was, windmill was one of largest grind fests ever back then along with life skills.
    3rd and 4th are ice bolt and fire bolt. Dude I had like no AP to spend. Rebirths weren't free.

    When talents were made what did you master first?

    The OG days had destiny, so when talents first came out I was already a master in all that was released at the time. Was happy about the revamp.

    What did you Grandmaster first?

    Bard because every other GM effect was terrible in comparison (before the grandmaster revamp).
    If you asked the forums the exception was GM warrior if you were die hard strength.

    YOUR FIRST PET

    Yellow Jindo. If that's not it then it was a thoroughbred 1 seater horse. Those horses were a lifesaver, one of the best purchases of 2008.

    How old is your first pet?
    No idea but I'm guessing around 625 years past 25.

    Which is your favorite pet?
    The astral/celestial/starry/constellation thunder dragon

    YOUR FIRST MABI FRIEND?
    Besides my irl friends, i met this guy during open beta and I cannot remember the name since he was on the main account, which I lost. He was super funny and went hung out with a campfire.

    One of my dearest OG friends was Crysis008. He was a champ.

    Do they still play?

    No. Thankfully. Although I wish we kept in touch.

    Are you still Friends?

    Still have each other added but haven't spoken in years. Last we spoke was around the time assault slash was released. Caught up on our life activities and had a wholesome conversation for a few days. Even got to play rafting one last time. It was one of our favorite minigames back in the day.

    YOUR FIRST MABI GUILD?

    I was in like every guild in existence in the early days, but I'm fairly sure it was Stonekillers, at least in Tarlach. I may have been a founder or one of the first recruited and left shortly after. Only to join under a different character.

    What’s your Current Mabi guild?

    None because plus server name people cannot join guilds currently. Previously I had been hopping to a guardian guild each week to take advantage of their benefits. I hope to continue doing this in the future.

    Have you ever led a guild?

    Yes until my VIP ran out then passed it off. The first time my guild built a guild castle was super hype. We bust our azz off to get those darn materials and the bidding war was insane. The second time was just pure agony.

    ANYTHING ELSE TO SHARE?

    I love to help people out, chat, and run things together!

  • Spirit weapons revamp, PLEASE!

    ya we've been complaining about ego revamps for years. Even ego firewands have been made irrelevant with the introduction of step 7 upgrades. Many of the egos have a big problem in their high exp requirements and the heavy maintenance costs. It is very hard to repair many of the egos and unless you pay NX, it is impossible to bless them. Oh and you can lose your blessing that u paid nx for if u died. Well ****. On initialt release, the egos were very strong and relevant with ego leather long bows reigning as king. Eventually the egos all became irrelevant with ego firewand being the last with a rival in R6 tribolt wands. RIP egos you need a revamp now but Nexon hates egos. Getting shafted like elves and giants SMH. They deserve so much better.
