I've done plenty of Star Force upgrading in MapleStory, and I always save it for Shining Star Force days.

Gotta give myself a better chance of coming out aheadㅎㅎ

I don't like having people around when I'm doing Star Force upgrades, so I usually avoid the crowded Grandis areas,

and stick to quiet spots in places like Victoria Island or Arcane River where nobody's around.

If I had to pick a few places where I've had good Star Force luck,

the first would be Ariant

This is where I hit 22-star for the first time in my Maple life,

and getting my Arcane Umbra gloves to 22-star without spending much meso left me with plenty of good memories, so it's a spot I'd recommend.

The second spot is Ereve's Hall of Knights

I got my Eternal hat, top, and bottom to 22-star here, and aside from the bottom,

I remember those upgrades going really smoothly.

Even the pants that failed 25 times at 21-star

finally made it to 22-star here without booming.

The third spot is 레헬른 강 하류

I've gone from 17-star to 18-star on the first try here plenty of times.

I've had plenty of good luck with Cubes here too, not just Star Force, so I'd recommend giving it a few Cube rolls as wellㅎㅎ

My Star Force routine is to try a quiet spot with nobody around first,

and if the upgrades aren't going my way, I'll usually switch channels or move somewhere else.

Plenty of other players do this too, right?
