    Thank you ZerakaiZerakai for the sweet banner!

    [​IMG] Stranded! Summer 2021 Community Event [​IMG]
    You've found yourself teleported to a mysterious, hot summer island that's full of unknown dangers... but luckily, you have 3 items from the Maple world in your pocket! Tell us what 3 items you're bringing with you to the island to maximize your chances of survival until help arrives. You don't know when help will come, so think wisely on what you are going to bring with you! Best of luck!


    [​IMG] General Entry Rules [​IMG]
    • Submissions will end on September 27th, 2021 (when the event ends)
    • Submissions will be individual (not team based)
    • Rewards are only for the winners - you cannot transfer them to other players
    • Copying other peoples work will result in immediate disqualification
      • If you happen to pick the same item as someone else, that's okay! (just no direct copying)
    • Your submission must be in line with the MapleLegends Terms and Conditions (please, nothing that's inappropriate/offensive)
    • You cannot use any Teleport Rocks or Town Scrolls
      • If you have to ask yourself "Is it cheating if I use this item" then you should probably not use it in your submission LOL
    • You can only have 1 of each item, not 1 stack of items (eg. you can only bring 1 Apple, and not 1 stack of Apples, which is 100 Apples)
    [​IMG] Judgement Criteria [​IMG]
    • How realistic is it: Are your items actually useful in a survival island scenario?
    • Quality & Effort: We would like to see how your items were selected and the effort put into your submission

    We will also be judging ONLY on the text content of the post. If you want to include posters / images, feel free to, but it will not be getting bonus points.

    Please do not embed your explanation in an image, as that makes judging difficult, so please submit it in text.

    • Items:
      • Machete
      • Nevermelting Snow
      • Burning Book of Fire
    • Why Did You Pick These Items? Machete is a good weapon/tool for survival. With it you can kill mobs for food or survival and can also be used to cut down plant materials to build shelter. Nevermelting Snow provides a source of cooling and can keep food frozen. Burning Book of Fire is a permanent source of fire... can't underestimate what can be done with fire (cooking, purifying water, making tools...) and fires are great for surviving in the night~

    I have much experience as an islander so this is second nature

    IGN : Skal
    Items :
    1. Bug Net
    2. Swimming Goggles
    3. Firewood
    Reason
    1. Bug net and Swimming Goggles can be used to swim to the sea banks and capture crabs, night crabs, crustaceans or some small fishes
    2. Bug net can be later on dismantled and become a fishing net, throw in some bait and trap some fishies in it
    3. Bug net can be easily dismantled to get a long pole to possibly kick down coconuts from palm trees, or maybe other fruits (like banana rabana)
    4. One firewood to start a fire on it by grabbing random stuff on island, or by removing some fibers of it and starting a fire, a la bear grylls style

    Oh...Ow did I just fall asleep? Did I just get kidnapped by Shanks?!
    [​IMG]

    This beach doesn't seem familiar, he took me somewhere else...

    [​IMG]
    At least I got my Bug Net and Swimming Goggles , I can makeshift use it to capture fish, crabs and crustaceans underwater.
    Lets just hope this Firewood will last me for a couple nights to start a fire...

    (can't go on else Mirrors will bonk my head in cause writing a small novel [​IMG] )

      • Camping Tent
      • Elemental Wand 3
      • Harp seal (pet)
    • Why Did You Pick These Items? Ok, since I'm a priest with max mp eater, i don't really have to worry about my health. I need my elemental wand (a weapon) to protect myself, hunt for food, and train, so that's a must. I need to have a good place to sleep at -- hence the camping tent. Lastly, I need a friend to talk or play with so I don't go crazy -- that would be the seal. Since we are on an island, hunting fish for it would be easy too! (or it can hunt for me lol)
    • Once I train myself to level 120 and get genesis, I will use it 3 times a day to signal for help! perfect plan!

    • Why Did You Pick These Items?
    Fruit Knife as the obvious tool while also serving as a weapon to hunt.
    Pan lid to cook on of course! It can also be used to dig with among other things.
    Arwen's Glass Shoe as a container for water and a way to start a fire (using the sun). It can also be used as a way to send reflections out to sea that my saviour hopefully notices. And as a bonus I can feel pretty.

    Items:
    Frozen Tuna - https://maplelegends.com/lib/equip?id=1442018
    Yellow Tent Chair - https://maplelegends.com/lib/setup?id=3010152
    Campfire Chair - https://maplelegends.com/lib/setup?id=3010194

    I would use the frozen tuna to hunt for food or hit things with, while still having enough water from its forever frozen state when I chip off ice. The tent and campfire will keep me safe and warm at night.

    Also, the campfire will be able to help rescuers search and find me faster.

    Items:
    1. Chumji's watermelon
    2. Timeless Pescas
    3. Camping Tent

    Why I chose those items:
    1. Chumji's watermelon - cause big juicy melons :eyes: and can be substituted for water and food; able to use the watermelon skin as a watermelon helmet to avoid the blazing sun(heatstroke); use the rest of the melon skin to spell out SOS so re can use the watermelon seeds to plant more watermelon cause i like my melons ;) F3 MapleF3.

    2. Timeless Pescas - to cut those melons open; best dagger in game; multi-tool; lowkey shad main; able to defeat mobs if needed cause you don't know what's out there, u feel?

    3. Camping Tent - (the chair comes with a pot with boiling water and portable stove; able to find ingredients from the island and use it to cook) able to use the chair to hibernate in due to food coma from dem melons; shelter; a place to stay warm at night cause temperature drops a lot at night compared to the daytime; also place to stay while waiting for rescue to come. and maybe some indoor activities?

    • Why Did You Pick These Items?
      • I picked the Campfire Chair as my first item to bring as it would be immensely beneficial as both a comfort tool as well as a way for me to easily have a fire available both for warmth. Having the pleasure of pulling this chair out with a joint campfire attachment is just beyond any other tool I can comprehend utilizing as my first item. With the campfire, I can create a rig to hold my third item: Pot and cook away!
      • I picked the Machete as my second item as it would provide me both with protection against unknown dangers as well as a multi-purpose tool for various everyday tasks of survival including making/carving shelter for myself, flaying fish, carving meats (if I am blessed by this hot summer island). I wonder if this is the infamous Pig Beach I've heard so much about..
      • I picked the Pot as my third and final item as it would provide me an easy to use means of cooking my food with my campfire. The fact that this Pot is easy to clean, and that it has a superior heat conduction, I know I will be in for a treat with optimal cooking times and temperatures for maximum enjoyment of my taste buds. Plus, I can utilize this tool to provide drinkable water through desalination of the surrounding seawater.
      • These three items will work and complement each other to keep me energized and living for as long as possible until my help arrives.

    1. Not only can the fish spear be used to catch fishes along the coast, it can be used for self-defence or other purposes such as knocking down fruits like coconuts if there are coconut trees.
    2. Hand axe can be used as a tool to chop down trees to provide a supply of firewood, which can be used to cook the fishes or even to keep myself warm at night!
    3. Pet white candle is there to provide flame to start a fire using the chopped down firewood, and also a pal to keep me accompany...

    1. A handy-dandy fruit knife can cut through anything that gets in my way, and for hunting for food.
    2. This ice is magically frozen and doesn't melt easily. Perfect for keeping cool.
    3. After a long day of hunting, I can kick back and enjoy my lovely coconut juice - in style.

    1. I'm gonna be there for a while, may as well get comfortable in the shade, and the doll for company to stave off loneliness.
    2. Gotta get the message of my predicament out there somehow to get saved.
    3. Good for defence, can be used for spear fishing, or reaching those high coconuts from the palm trees.

    1. Pufferfish pet
    2. Orange Mushroom Piece
    3. Purple Surfboard

    Pufferfish pet for obvious reasons. Orange Mushroom transformation is so that I can turn myself into a mushroom and become one with the inhabitants on the island. If there are other Orange Mushrooms there then I can simply enjoy my new life as an Orange Mushroom until the day that another adventurer comes along to slaughter me and my family, at which point I will transform back, cry and wail a lot, guilt trip the adventurer into suicide, and sail out into the ocean on my Purple Surfboard, to either find a new life or drown with my sorrow

    1) pot to make food, wash anything, boil/evaporate sea water. This item is considered for long term in case you don't get help immediately.
    2) Fireman's axe is handy for protections, hunting, wood-chopping (making raft/shelter), and just about anything physical to help you survive.
    3) Holy water of life as it says in the descriptions of the item, water "endlessly" streaming over from the cave of life. You will never run out of water to drink, to cook, to wash, or anything related.

    • Why Did You Pick These Items?
    With the Pumpkin Spear we tackle 2 items at once, first we detach te pumpkin and use the seeds to make various pumpkin items such as Pumpkin Pie and Pumpkin Juice. This should solve the food/drink problem. After solving this we do not necessarily need to be rescued from the islant anymore since now we can thrive. However for events sake we will try to escape.

    Sitting in our Beach Chair with Cassandra's Cellphone in hand, we check out ML's discord #free market and start making memes about our pumpkin merchendise to increase views. There has to be someone who is willing to pay humongous prices for something meme related and willingly wanting to travel to any islant in the world, especially the folks over at Discord.

    After our buyer arrives in paradise we ask him to be rescued, if not, we use the unused part of our Pumpkin spear and kill the fucker.​

    1. Lycanthrope Toenail
    2. Miwok Chief's Chair
    3. Water Filter
    Why?
    1. The (nearly) unbreakable Lycanthrope Toenail can be fashioned into a durable weapon and cooking utensil.
    2. Miwok Chief's Chair not only provides warmth/protection with the fire, but also the strength of Miwok ancestors. Since Miwoks still live today, they clearly had enough wilderness know-how to survive a deserted island.
    3. Water Filter ... to not die. It's an island so water should be abundant and it'll help me quickly filter it to drink/clean with.
