The New MapleStory FAQs
General FAQs
Just a few answers and a lot of sources to questions that I see asked again and again in the General section. Since the answers are very condensed, links are provided for further research. All credits go to the sources and particularly TinDragon, whose links I have copied in the Calculators and Patch Info sections.

How do I protect the hog?
If you’re having a really hard time killing the aliens, one strategy is to restart the quest over and over until the hog drops 3 pheromones within the first minute and a half. Then protect the hog until it drops the two remaining and abandon it completely to get the boxes and hopefully get out before it dies.
What if I miss?
You just have to be near the hog to catch it. The easiest way is to hit it once and then walk to a corner and wait for it to run into you.
Zakum-Related Questions
Buying the Helmet:
Check Sleepywood to see if the guild is on their list. If not, no matter how cheap they are offering the helm to you, you run a greater risk of being scammed.
VIP – Means you are bumped to the top of the buyer list, after other VIP customers only.
REG – You have to wait for your helm. Most guilds allow you to buy in advance so that hopefully by the time you are ready, you’re already quite far up the list.
Basic Requirements:
• Level 50
• At least 1950 HP unless you are a mage, in which case, you’ll be fine as long you maxed Magic Guard.
• 75% HP/MP recovery NLC pots for mages. Melted cheese for other other classes. All-cure pots are also suggested. Number depends on the guild taking you.
• Knowledge of where the wall is, and how to hug it. Zakum is not a wall. Do not hug him.
HP Equips:
• Ribbon Pig Headband
• Emergency Tube or Versalmas Cactus
• HP top and bottom
• HP scrolled shield (usually a stolen fence)
• HP gloves (Work Gloves)
• HP cape (usually Old Raggedy Cape or Yellow Raggedy Cape)
• 90/90 Speigelmann Necklace or Deputy Star Pendant
• HP Rat Mouth or Branch Nose
