I've separated the 5th job skills since they do not interact with any previous skills except Return. You can tap a Dragon Skill and its Evan Skill trigger in quick succession to trigger Fusion without any issues. The limit on triggering Fusion is the duration of the Dragon Skill. At the end of the day, like any other class, you've just got to learn and practice using the mechanic. It can be a little confusing which combinations create which Fusion Skill so here's a chart to get you started. There are three Dragon skills and four Evan skills (Not counting 5th job skills since they only link to each other) that are a part of this mechanic. Return makes Mir stop attacking and activates effects depending on the Dragon Skill that's active. This gives Evan a lot of potential and versatility, and it is important to make use of this while playing the class.Ī subcategory of Fusion Skills are Return Skills.

Each Fusion Skill has a unique Dragon + Evan trigger combination and similarly each have a unique combination of power and attack range. When a certain Evan Skill is cast while a Dragon skill is active, a Fusion Skill is triggered.įusion Skills are essentially enhanced Dragon Skills. Dragon Skills fall under a unique category of summon they can only attack in the direction you were facing when you first cast the skill, do not trigger Damage Reflection and Summon Duration % does not affect it. However, some Evan skills serve as triggers for Fusion Skills.ĭragon Skills manifest in the form of short lived, very fast and very strong summons. They are no different or special to any skill you would encounter on any other class. The class can be broken up into three categories of skill Evan, Dragon and Fusion.Įvan skills are used directly by you, the player. Personally, I think this embodies the Essence of what Evan should be and I greatly enjoy the class because of it but that bit is up to you. Your character takes the role of Evan, and you command Mir (The Dragon). Playing Evan is a bit like controlling two characters simultaneously. Needs a legendary hat to achieve maximumer potential.The 5th job skill makes your screen flash and flicker.

Interactive gameplay (Definitely not a one button wonder).

This does not come without a cost, and Evans may require higher range than other classes to achieve maximum mobbing potential. Some skills can glitch out and disappear ( I have a detailed video of this) but this doesn't happen very often in regular gameplay.ĭamage wise, Evan hits hard in both mobbing and bossing situations, owing to its unique Mechanic which allows you to effectively be in two places at once. Additionally, you can do significant damage while dodging in a boss such as Hard Magnus since more than half of the skills allow you to move freely while they are cast (More on that later).Įvan has no particular sensitivity to ping, so users with bad internet shouldn't suffer beyond the usual things. This leads to average mobbing mobility and excellent bossing mobility. Like most mages, most skills can't be jumpcasted though they can be telecasted. The class is fairly mobile, having access to a teleport and an upjump (Though this can't be used while Mir is attacking, it is still very useful for navigating maps). As a Magician, Evan uses either Wand or Staff with a Shield or Document as the secondary weapon. I'll go over the class mechanic, how it affects mobbing and bossing situations, and various other details pertaining to the class such as Inner Ability, Nodes, and Legion.Įvan is one of the two Mage heroes in MapleStory, using a dragon in tandem with magic attacks to attack enemies. I'll try to cover what I can with this guide, but I might forget to add a thing or two every here and there. Having mained the class since 2010, I've seen and lived through the ups and downs of the class over the years. I'm an Evan main from the long lost world of GRAZED.
