Pirate Patch ~ 32 hours +
Aran Patch ~ 18 hours +
Leafre/Fourth Job Patch ~ 14 hours +
Ariant Patch ~ 25 hours +
Dojo/CPQ2 Patch ~ 23 hours +
Big Bang ~ 24 hours +

Some others that I can't think of that catch my attention. This one will be one... These are close estimates from history.

Longest consecutive patch was definitely v.49. The patch that added 4th jobs and Leafre. It stayed down for a day and a half because they kept trying to fix things and extending. I remember it took forever because there was a thread of people panicking about not being able to play maple that got so many pages that it had to be reset 3 times. I really wish I had saved some record of that day lol. The rest of these "long" down times were times when they game came up for a few hours and then went back down, so they don't count lol.

I believe Ariant was the longest taking 26 hours (and it still ended up being extremely buggy), Ludibrium was a hefty update as well.

I'd have to say this is the longest consecutive patch without breaks in between. The other patches were all like "oh we finished on time--- two hours later--- oops, we ff-ed up real bad, lets take it down for another 6 hours and repeat that process about 2 more times"

World Merges took 2 days i believe, they messed up the first and a few hours into the second they managed to fix all the world stuff..

There was a downtime that lasted almost a whole week, due to Nexon's game having like way too many bugs from an update.

Wasn't there a time when it went for 30 hours + because they were moving servers or something?

Y'all forgetting the dual blade update. Although technically not down, it was delayed by a week. Pretty serious crap.

Pirates patch was the one where it was down for three days. Everyone got 10k maple points as well as 3x for a week and 5 free ap.

Tempest took well over 24 hours, i think it extended for another 5-7 hours (even more?) after the day, i feel asleep since it was well over midnight for me...
