In January 2022, when I had 35k stats, I started to consider liberation. I made friends with a liberated pathfinder, Melmetal, and received great bossing guidance. A huge thanks to Melmetal and Rackey for giving constant and great gearing advice which helped me avoid making any costly errors. I made my gearing decisions based on high cost-benefit ratio and a long-term outlook.

This video serves as a milestone log for myself, and to fellow pathfinders who wishes to know what stats did I take to liberate.

*Q1) What stats were you at during liberation?*
I began with 41k stats when I started my liberation journey in July 2022, and had 49k stats when I completed Heretic Hilla liberation quest. I liberated in February 2023 and around that time I had a few equips upgraded, also with the release of Odium Authentic Force symbols my stats then increased past 49k stats.

*Q2) What kind of equip potentials did you have to achieve 40k+ stat?*
Some notable weaker equips were 20* Back Bean Mark, 15* Sincere Beautyroid Heart, and 22* Fafnirs, which were at 9% epic pot, and a 21% legendary event ring. The rest of my equips were Legendary/Rare potted; 27-30% dex main pot and 13 att add pot.

*Q3) What bosses can you solo?*
I can solo all bosses besides Hard Serene, Black Mage and Chaos Kalos.

*Q4) What are your future gearing plans?*
I am not very keen on any future upgrades _(I say this but I still upgrade..)_ as I am quite comfortable with my solo boss timings. With the recent upgrade of a Breath of Divinity, I can now play more aggressively and cut down on boss timing. Additionally, there are significant game changes, including pathfinder buffs in the future Saviour Patch and a cheap way to upgrade the Additional Potential to Epic. Therefore, I don't really have a reason to upgrade when I am in a good spot now

I do have a 100% Additional +1 Star Force Scroll that I could use on my Outlaw Heart to make it 22*. I may star MEP to 22*. Apart from these, I could upgrade my rings to a 22* Giant Fear and a 22* Divine King Ring in the future; it would add a total of 20% Boss Damage from Dawn Boss and 5th Dark Boss set effect.

_maybe a ROR4 and maybe just maybe, throw Additional +1 Star Force Scrolls on my BOD till 22*.._ _*urm probably not*_

*Q5) What about 9 Set Dark Boss Set?*
I am at 4th set Dark Boss and will not be going any higher than 5 unless Source of Pain and Commander Force Earrings becomes much much more affordable.

Shout out to other players with whom I have done party bossing with; you guys have made my time in MapleStory so enjoyable
