What Dailies do you do on AriesMS?

Hi everyone,

Wanted to get back into MS, played reboot about 2 years ago (v187) and was decently geared there. But I quit because the dailies just got to me. Just wondering if Aries is as heavy with the dailies as GMS was? I don't mind grinding but I don't wanna do time-gated BIS's again (months for a tyrant piece etc.)

Off the top of my head from back when I played, there was: all the vj field dailies, vj pqs, cpq, kritias, dwtree, scrapyard, legion, ursus, and 2-3 dailies for whatever seasonal event is currently in. I don't mind doing some of these but all together it just burned me out.

Also, I was wondering some other things about Aries:
1.) Are there "seasonal BIS" that only come once in a while? Like wonderoids and sengoku badge in GMS
2.) Is there still a 2-PC meta with having your own kishin to train/grind? I read you can hire for kish/hs services but are those actually commonly utilized in Aries?

Thanks!

Aries is matched in version to GMS so yeah, dailys are a big part of what you'll be doing endgame. In fact, in week days that's all I do.
Login -> boss runs -> Arcane River dailys -> post drops in AH -> go to bed.
But getting gear is fairly easy. There's always cheap, clean equipment in the AH so I think you can get full tyrant and CRA in a matter of 1-2 weeks from scratch, depends on how much you play and willing to grind.

Idk about the seasonal BIS, but about the 2-PC meta - its still very efficient, and people who have the privilege of having 2 PCs to play MapleStory on usually do so.

Dailies are prevalent but probably not to the extent you listed. Arcane dailies are the most important and crucial to do. Many people also do boss runs for RP. There are some more dailies at paragon (max level custom content). DWT has recently been changed to weekly, but it's not necessary to do anyway. Legion is only necessary when you're starting out and leveling it. We don't get seasonal events like GMS or the rest of the things you listed because we're a bootleg server, so you don't have to worry about that. Just remember, it's just a game, so you don't have to do anything you don't like to do. Burnout can be prevented by focusing on doing what you enjoy. Some people just chat in town all day, every day.

People with two PCs often use that, but selling/buying services is just as commonly used for those without.
