August 13, 2024

Once you reach Level 200 in MapleStory and arrive at Arcane River, you can begin to equip and upgrade your Arcane Symbols by completing various daily quests. Arcane Symbols have become a lot easier to upgrade since they were first introduced, with many of the daily quests now taking less than a minute to complete.

There are 6 Arcane Symbols to collect, with them being rewarded as you unlock various areas of Arcane River. With each unlock, you'll also unlock a brand new daily quest that allows you to earn more Symbols, which in turn allows you to upgrade them.

Arcane River contains the best maps for leveling post Level 200. Check out our MapleStory Training Guide for where to level.

What are Arcane Symbols?

MapleStory Arcane Symbols - DigitalTQ (2)

Arcane Symbols are one of the easiest ways of improving your damage in MapleStory and they are also vital for killing mobs and bosses in Arcane River.

Arcane Symbols provide a flat stat boost and give you a new item stat called Arcane Force. They start at Level 1 and give +300 main stat and +30 Arcane Force.

There are six different Arcane Symbols that are unlocked as you progress through Arcane River:

  • Vanishing Journey Arcane Symbol (Level 200)
  • Chu Chu Island Arcane Symbol (Level 210)
  • Lachelein Arcane Symbol (Level 220)
  • Arcana Arcane Symbol (Level 225)
  • Morass Arcane Symbol (Level 230)
  • Esfera Arcane Symbol (Level 235)

Arcane Force

MapleStory Arcane Symbols - DigitalTQ (3)

Monsters in Arcane River require a certain amount of Arcane Force in order for you to be able to damage them. This mechanic works similar to Star Force. Each map will show you how much Arcane Force is required to deal normal damage.

If you have 1.5x the amount of required Arcane Force, you'll deal double damage to the monsters on the map.

Arcane Force is required all the way up to fighting Black Mage, which requires a hefty 1320 Arcane Force to deal normal damage.

How much does it cost to upgrade Arcane Symbols?

MapleStory Arcane Symbols - DigitalTQ (4)

You can upgrade an Arcane Symbol by merging it with other symbols you get from Daily Quests or as a rare drop from mobs in the area.

For example, once you get the Level 1 Vanishing Journey Arcane Symbol, you will then be able to earn more of them from the Daily Quest in Vanishing Journey. You cannot merge symbols from other areas; they must all come from the same area.

Once your Arcane Symbol reaches enough symbols to be upgraded, you can click the Enhance button from your Equipment Inventory and pay a meso fee to upgrade the Symbol.

Each upgrade gives +100 main stat and +10 Arcane Force.
