Petition-type thing to balance Singapore/Malaysia monsters

http://forum.nexon.net/MapleStory/forums/thread/6349159.aspx

Something like that. Although I expect it will be filled with people rolling their faces on the keyboard saying, "we want stupidly easy leveling pls"

[quote=myrdrex]Actually I don't think they are asking to level godly fast, just not much much slower than it ever was before.

We went from being able to get 20,000 XP per Skelie kill in our 120s,130s,140s (if you used 4X) to now getting 2000-ish to 3000-ish (if you use 1.2X).

It's a 90% decrease in the XP gotten from each monster for anyone that used 4X. Even if you don't use 4X, you still get well under 1/2 the XP you used to get, so the curve doesn't actually help at all.

1-100ish is now obscenely fast due to the broken Singapore mobs. But once those get changed, and once people get higher level, I think they'll be changing their tune.[/quote]
Exactly how me and my brother felt when I tried training for a bit. It's not faster at all after all, especially with the options to get 4x exp now changed to what is it? 2.4x max if it adds up and 1.44x if it multiplies? Bleh . The increase in dmg range, stronger skills and the exp-curve being changed didn't outweight the difference in HP and 2x not being 2x anymore.

Its not the fact that the xp/hp ration broken. Its the fact that maps promotes KS wars. Right after the sc was over, People were already ksing for Gallo maps.

[quote=Spark58]You sir speak the truth. I completely agree.[/quote]

Actually it became harder to level for people 130+. Even with unbalanced Gallos. For us to have the same exp back Gallos would have to give like 8k exp.

I'm lvl 159 and the exp gain is fine to me, which is like 1%/8min. You guys need to stop complaining.

@Above: Exactly what I was thinking. People were QQing about how hard it is to level, then we discover this jacked up hp:exp ratio and people want to change it.

The crowd will [i]never[/i] be pleased.

Exactly what I'm trying to say. But people assault you when you say leveling now is slower without the x2/x4 multipliers because there's "got to be something wrong with you" if that's the only way you could level. Yet here I am leveling slower than ever before.

Just make the hp 100k and keep the exp the same please. Then I'll still be able to 1hko while half the noobs there leave.

So, in other words, "You don't agree with me so get out of Maple".
People are allowed to have a different opinion than you, attacking them for it is called Stalinism.

I'll only agree if monsters with stupidly low HP:EXP rates get raised.
Otherwise you should be thanking them, not asking them to fix it because you're insecure with your own abilities.

Edit:
Cause right now, you (and all other complainers) just sound like "WAAAAAH, IT WASNT THIS EASY FOR ME, THIS IS HORRIBLE! I CAN'T TAKE CROWDED MAPS BECAUSE MY COMPUTER CANT HANDLE IT! SOMETHING SOMETHING ALL MY FAULT BECAUSE I CANT DEAL WITH IT, SO I'LL BLAME NEXON AND BEG FOR CHANGE"
