Aqua Road
If you meant the underwater city, see: Aquarium.
Description
Aqua Road is an underwater sub-continent in the continent of Ossyria. Aqua Road consists of:
Aqua Road is connected to the bottom of Orbis Tower. It contains many sea creature monsters. Characters constantly receive damage in the water without a source of air. This problem can be resolved by completing a level 35 quest which gives you an Oxygen Tank cape that gives you unlimited air, or using an Air Bubble, which lasts for 15 minutes. Some items can only be found by dropping from Aqua Road monsters. There will also be new cape found through a quest, which are numbered from lvls 1-95.
A recent patch allows players to access the Aqua Dungeon which has monsters like Shark (level 100) and Cold Shark (level 102). The boss of the area is Pianus (level 110), a large flounder. This boss can summon Bloodboom (level 75). In addition to summoning, it can shoot a huge laser, drop boxes from the top, shoot beams from the ground, and can activate Super Defense UP, which decreases melee and ranged attack damages to 1 for a while. The cave it is enclosed in does not allow you to swim upward.

Location
However, because this area is located in Ossyria. There is a world map to be shown (MapleSea). If you plan to come here, make sure your level is 30+, because to get here through Orbis Tower or to even kill the monsters here is not easy.
Miscelleanous
Aqua Road is now in every version of Maplestory and is now in Maple Europe. It is a Connection to the Korean Folk Town. The Dolphin can now give you a ride to Herb Town, which connects to Mu Lung. Dolphin can also send you to the "The Sharp Unknown" that connects to Korean Folk Town.
- Aqua Road was added to MapleGlobal in a massive summer patch, released in July 2006. The patch became infamous for the then record downtime of over 16 hours. The patch was delayed extensively throughout the day, with users getting anxious and frustrated as the day progressed. Once Aqua Road was finally released, several problems plagued the patch, such as random logouts, failure to patch properly, and massive lag. Infact, the release of the Aqua Road patch led to "Max Server Capacity" errors on Scania, Bera, and led to massive lag on Broa (Broa wouldn't face MSC errors until the following summer). The patch is generally most remembered not only for the negative events in its wake, but for the general mixed reactions to it as a whole. Throughout the summer months and well into autumn, the world thrived as a popular hangout for numerous Maplers. Whether they were seeking exploration or just wanting to socialize. However, following the release of Aqua Dungeon at the end of that summer, the popularity of Aqua Road decreased. As the years progressed, interest in the world waned greatly. General consesus shows that Aqua Road (as of 2010) is a wasteland, with neither its maps or Aqua Dungeon being sought as viable training spots.
