There are 2 hearts better than the Fairy Heart you get from MapleStory's attendance event,

one is the Plasma Heart from the boss coin shop,

and the other is Complete Under Control, which has a chance to drop when you beat Extreme Lotus.

Complete Under Control is expensive and honestly overkill for my stats,

so I decided to practice Easy Kaling so I could get the Plasma Heart from the boss coin shop.

I've got the stats to comfortably solo Easy Kaling,

so for all my worrying, I could pretty much wing phases 1~2 and still clear them.

I could really feel how much easier Easy Kaling was after the 20-minute boss patch. All that worrying for nothing;

The problem was phase 3, with the 3 Perils and Kaling throwing all kinds of attack patterns at me,

my brain just couldn't keep up, and I burned through all my lives in no timeㅠㅠ

So I focused on practicing just phase 3 of Easy Kaling,

got to the point where I could take down 2 of the Perils,

and finally beat Easy Kaling in practice mode.

Time to try it for real, right?

Finally got the Easy Kaling solo clear!!

I'm finally going to get to use a Plasma Heart..!

I'll have to get it to 18 stars on Shining Star Force dayㅎㅎ

I've wanted to beat Easy Kaling for ages, and I finally did it..

Really makes me realize I should just jump in and practice instead of psyching myself out before I even try.

I kept putting it off because it looked hard, but once I actually practiced, it wasn't that big a deal..

Gonna keep this momentum going and start practicing 벨로나 next!
