Summer Log-In Event Requirement Changes - KEEP IN MIND Details: [url=http://forum2.nexon.net/showthread.php?1539527]Summer Log-In Event Requirement Changes[/url] The required days of Dark Decree have been reduced. However, for Tier 3, you need to level 30 times instead of 10. It is also confirmed that if you completed Dark Decree prior to the event start, you won't be required to start again on another character.
v.171 Masteria Through Time Patch Notes Lots of interesting stuff, but I already posted what interested me [url=https://www.reddit.com/r/Maplestory/comments/49rpep/v_171_masteria_through_time_patch_notes/d0ubsj0]on Reddit[/url], so I'll leave the floor to you guys. :)
Most annoying req. - Shanghais Yu Rang Fortune Telling Before I say anything, I know there's an issue where it asks people to party Zeroes and such in Reboot. I'm just saying a possible, but annoying one. Today, it asked me to use 10+ runes to get the box. 10. [url=https://i.gyazo.com/4bbd57f6819ca0adf6a8d693fba36337.png]IMAGE[/url] There's a 15 minute cooldown once you use a Rune, so after 2.5 hours of waiting on using Runes, I go to get the box. I open it, and wonderful: 3 Hand Sanitizer. [url=https://i.gyazo.com/0'2a7a31d9007f6c132207cc0b916b.png]IMAGE[/url] This shouldn't be one of the quest requirements. It's just obnoxious. It's like how Sudden Missions ask for 3 Elite Bosses, and give 50 Spell Traces. The random tasks aren't equal in
Totem's Att Increase finally works in v170 I went to the Event List, hovered the Hunter Totem at the bottom, and noticed it was working. I always hated eyeballing the stats to see if it was better (since I'd always be one of the earliest people reading notes), and I'm glad they finally fixed this. I checked all my other totems I still have, works like a charm. Just wanted to make sure you all know. :)
Cash Shop Specials 1/14 - 1/19 My personal highlights: * Another Gachapon reorganization, whereas a lot more (honestly) garbage has been removed. * New Gachapon items seem interesting, like the Maple TV Chair and Wriggling mount. * Andersen's Box now contains the junk that was removed from gachapon, in case for some reason you still want any of it. Cheaper than a full gachapon ticket, at least... Of course, these take effect after the update goes live.

This is the oldest screenshot I currently still have (There might be older ones on my old computer, but I haven't turned that on in years). Things were so much different then... Back when being a level 14 Rogue with NX equips wasn't questionable, bec
Artasi's Fate I was checking [url=https://twitter.com/CM_Artasi]Artasis old Nexon Community Manager Twitter[/url], and found he had linked to [url=https://twitter.com/BretForbus]his personal Twitter[/url]. Turns out, he is now Community Manager for Warcraft at Blizzard Entertainment. Still sad he's gone from us, but good for him. :) Just thought if anyone wanted to give him hugs or such, he's still alive.
Which look do you like better? I just got the Santa Beard: [url=http://maplestory.nexon.net/rankings/overall-ranking/legendary?character_name=MegaScience#ranking]Current look[/url]. I personally never liked the Attack on Titan Bread face equip for this specific outfit - it was just the most unique face equip I had at the time. The beard feels more like a piece of a creature. However, I often hear people preferring the bread to anything else I try, so I wanted to know what others think in a forum format. More specifically what I'm interested in, is arguments for the bread as part of the outfit over the beard. It needs to have a... canonical explanation. For instance: I am Zakum Centaur Chicken Snail. My father was Zakum, and my mother was a
Cassandra lets you pick which Snowflake Chair you want When turning in the quest, Cassandra gives you a list of all the chairs to pick from. No clue why you'd pick anything but the biggest one, considering the effort required to get 300 snowflakes with such low droprate, but it lets you pick. [b][url=http://i.imgur.com/qG92nYc.png]Me in the Twelfth Snowflake Chair.[/url][/b] It seems the only reason for doing this 12 times is for either the chair bag or to have more versions of the chair. Additionally, the players hitbox is on the player and not the base of the chair. This should work for hiding from enemies.
Request: Videos of Santa's Missions' Chimney Sequences Particularly, the harder version. I can make it all the way to the last set of two puffs of steam, but there I get stuck. Unlike the other sets, whereas there is always a part where the bottom puff goes before the top, the last set always has the top go off first except when they align. This is why I want a video of this portion being done. I have managed to pass this area the last 5 or so times, but only out of shear luck. I honestly don't recall how I did it. Seeing a video of someone aligning to the sequence works better than description in text, since I have trouble associating patterns.

Eventually, Nexon has to be open about upcoming fixes As you should all know, this update is plagued with various serious issues which seem to require clientside updates to fix. Nexon seems to be planning v169 purely to fix these issues, but we do not know what is actually being addressed until the patch actually comes. This means they can easily miss serious issues, due to the immense distance between the community and the developers in control of these fixes. It would be comforting not just to the players but to the developers, because we would actually be able to get the worst bugs put at priority for notice, instead of hoping they have been noticed. Summary: Make a new version of [url=http://maplestory.nexon.net/community#%2Fshowthread.
How do you get the final Sizzling Santa Reward? I've finally gotten to the point of doing Santa Missions and managed to complete it once. It won't let me go back in, so I assume it is one completion a day. But then how do you get the final reward? The update notes list that you must complete it 30 times to finish all the helpers, but the event started on the 2nd and ends on the 30th. It's outright impossible to do it 30 times, even if we started first day... Right? Even so, it'd be incredibly unfair to spring such a badly elaborated requirement without saying you can only go in once a day. Edit: Okay, turns out me leaving twice due to an unfair randomized ladder level counted toward my daily. Great. So it's 3 entries a day, 10 days.
New Inner Ability or just new wording? I was resetting my inner ability on my Beast Tamer mule, and the first Unique I get was this. I tried to search it, but it didn't show up. Is this just a rewording of an old line? I think it is, but it still seems odd. The way it is worded sounds like it'd only be useful against things like event monsters, where damage-per-line is fixed... Weird...
Monday, November 30th Black Friday Deals No Lucky Box, but a bunch of useless stuff - except that Fusion Anvil. 100NX each, dang. Oh, or you want that 25 pack of Gachapon Tickets for 12.5k NX.
