Angelic Buster Overview

Angelic Buster was originally released in MapleStory GMS patch V126 - Tempest: Angelic Buster as part of the Nova class group, which also includes Kaiser and Cadena. Angelic Buster is known for it's highly flashy skills and aesthetics, being only able to be a female character. Angelic Buster also has one of the best flash jumps in the game, allowing her to travel across maps in an instant.

Remastered: Angelic Buster was revamped in the V.251 update for MapleStory Go West. With it her skills became much more powerful, more fluid and more fun!

You'll find training the new Angelic Buster very fun in the early levels as you get a passive +2 Attack Speed skill in the first job. Most of the skills you get early on are passive damage increases, allowing you to just mow down mobs without worrying about mechanics. As you move into fourth job, you start getting some useful bossing skills that will become important towards end-game.

Bossing with Angelic Buster can be very rewarding. She has great damage and an even better burst skill to help make short work of bosses. In fifth job they get a 10 second i-frame to help dodge 1-hit KO attacks and in second job you get a damage shield that helps decrease damage to you. She has a party-wide 20% damage buff skill and a extra iframe skill with a 60 second cooldown. Angelic Buster has a bossing skill called Trinity, which has a three-hit animation skill. It is a slow attack- but managing to land all 3 hits on a boss does great damage and gives you a buff.

In first job, your main attacking skill is Star Bubble, but you want to make sure you add at least one point into Melody Cross for that +2 attack speed.

The other skills offer improved movement speed and jump, plus a bit of extra HP.

Lovely Sting is your new main attacking skill in second job, hitting up to a massive 8 monsters!

Pink Pummel is a rush skill- not very useful if you're powerleveling since Angelic Buster's Jump is so good. Power Transfer reduces the damage you take.

In third job, Star Crash is your best mobbing skill. You do get another attacking skill called Soul Seeker, but this is more useful for single target enemies like bosses. You won't be facing too many of them in 3rd job, so max this last.

Apart from that, you just get ton more damage boosting skills. Blossoming Star, Dragon Whistle, Affinity Heart III, Center Stage and Love Me Heart all increase your stats passively.

In 4th job your main mobbing skill is Celestial Roar. Trinity is decent, but Celestial Roar has a bigger hitbox and hits more monsters. Trinity should be used for bossing.

You'll get some more passive damage buffs with Soul Shooter Expert and Affinity Heart IV.
