Defense specialization and stat analysis.
Rank one⁉︎ One⁉︎
Surprised and pleased to have surpassed the novel I intended to write in my spare time…
Anyway! Thank you!
【NWO】Maple-chan’s Mystery [Analysis]
1 Name: Nameless Spear User
Got it started.
2 Name: Nameless Greatsword User
Yo.
The topic is our Maple-chan.
3 Name: Nameless Mage
Honestly, I thought Pain was worse.
Why is she third?
4 Name: Nameless Spear User
She was drawing pictures in the ruins early on.
5 Name: Nameless Archer
Too cute, w.
6 Name: Nameless Great Shield User
I’m not even sure that’s a real great shield.
Ah, by the way, I’m ninth.
7 Name: Nameless Spear User
Impressive.
Didn’t expect to reach that far with a great shield.
(Keeping eyes averted from Maple.)
8 Name: Nameless Greatsword User
Then, this week’s summary of Maple-chan.
First Event
Maple — Third Place
Number of Deaths: 0
Damage Received: 0
Enemies Defeated: 2,028
Equipped with a mysterious large shield that seems to swallow enemies, a dagger that emits absurd status effects, and black armor.
The black armor shows no abnormal performance.
With defense so extreme it withstands concentrated fire from forty mages without damage.
9 Name: Nameless Mage
Honestly, seeing this again and again—it’s just insane.
10 Name: Nameless Shield User
Large shield—well, such gear exists, I suppose. Yeah.
Dagger—could be possible, I guess.
Maple-chan, herself—huh?
Her base stats and skill setup remain the greatest mystery.
How high is Maple-chan’s VIT?
11 Name: Nameless Greatsword User
She was a walking fortress, really.
Truly.
12 Name: Nameless Archer
She’s just taking hits based on VIT value, seems like.
Does anyone here recognize the skill Maple-chan possesses?
She glimmered when struck by magic. A skill was definitely being used.
Thirteen: Nameless Great Shieldbearer
Status effect — unknown
Increased defense—such a skill would be taken if one could become that hard
Large shield—don’t know.
14 Name: The Nameless Mage
This
Maple’s active skills—none of them are clear. She must surely have at least the basics.
Maple’s peculiar way of doing things makes no sense at all.
15 Name: Nameless Archer
Not the strongest in duels?
16 Name: The Nameless Mage
It could be real.
That wide-area status affliction attack must be dealt with—otherwise, victory is out of reach.
Something about a lethal poison—certainly a high-level spell.
That said, what about the MP?
Using such a frivolous spell, and likely maxed out in VIT as well?
You don’t have enough MP, do you?
17 Name: Nameless Greatsword User
That’s right… probably the large shield is acting as a mana reservoir.
Absorbing consumed matter and storing it as magic.
18 Name: Nameless Spear User
So that red crystal is the source then?
It did crack every time magic was used.
19 Name: Nameless Greatsword User
In short, Maple-chan
has near-impossible defense, nullifying all damage completely.
Any attack attempting to pierce her armor or the player using it is converted into MP.
And any status effect inflicted is delivered with crushing force.
That’s the gist.
20 Name: Nameless Spear User
What kind of boss is that?
21 Name: Nameless Archer User
Eh… that’s monstrous.
22 Name: Nameless Shield User
And she might still be hiding another skill.
We couldn’t tell this time since no one dealt damage, but she might even be regenerating HP.
23 Name: Nameless Magician
HP recovery for a boss is forbidden! That’s been said since long ago!
24 Name: Nameless Greatsword Wielder
Even writing it down makes me smile strangely.
And I’ve barely begun.
Too much of a newcomer.
25 Name: Nameless Magician
Next event, armor will be abnormal specification!
Yes, this.
26 Name: Nameless Archer
I’m already top-tier player, aren’t I…
That’s terrifying.
Strong and cute? Perfect.
27 Name: Nameless Spearman
I’ll watch over you.
Stats are first-line level, but the mind is still novice.
28 Name: Nameless Greatsword Wielder
That’s right.
I’ll rely on each of you for future investigations.
