There are a variety of maps and places to train for depending upon your gear and the amount of star force you have. These are my recommended spots to train at in Maplestory. Training can vary a lot depending on the person and class so do search around if these maps dont work for you.
If you are not familiar with the starforce system do read the equipment upgrade guide by clicking here.
Here is the recommended buffs/items/mvp/etc to get the maximum possible exp.
