Warning - Fake Mystery Mastery Books
I'm not sure how long these have been in play or where they even come from, but a couple friends have alerted me about fake mystery mastery books that can't be opened. This one guy in bera has an entire store full of them. This might be happening in other worlds as well, or even in bera for way longer. I haven't a clue. They don't stack with normal MMBS and there's pretty much no way to tell them apart as far as I can tell. Upon attempting to open these "fake" mystery mastery books, it will tell you your use inventory is full.
If anyone else has additional information such as origin, it would be nice to add to thread, or if this has been an on-going and obvious problem inform me so I can close it.
Here's a video, please excuse the music it's what I was listening to during recording and fraps records computer sounds blah blah toolazytoeditjusttryingtoinform

They are not fake. They are glitched and gave been for very long now. We are still waiting for Nexon to fix it. Don't believe me? Try opening the mystery mastery books (not class ones) from event shop.
I don't know, gotten 2 MMBs that were freshly looted from ToT and gave me the same error.
they're not illicitly generated. MMBs that drop from ranmaru stack with any other mmb and apparently the whole stack becomes unopenable
They're not "fake" - they're glitched.
I have 3 of these books, two of them I looted legitamately from monsters. They simply don't work due to some messed-up glitch. Currently, the only MMBs that DO work come from Inkwell.
For people calling the TS dumb about not knowing about the MMB glitch, look at when he posted this thread and watch the video -_-. In the video it clearly shows him [b]OPENING[/b] one and another one [b]NOT[/b] being able to be opened. Also he started this thread [b]one month ago[/b] before the MMB glitch. In my opinion, nexon found out about the MMB exploit and decided to make all the MMB unable to be opened around 2-3 weeks ago or so.
you're a well known nightlord but you call these fake, i thought someone such as yourself would be a little smarter? they're glitched. whether they're bought from the fm or dropped by monsters. they won't open at all.
This has been out in GAZED for the past week, maybe longer but at least a week so far
Hmn it's not a glitch because nexon is doing it on purpose.
I'm still getting this error, and half my use item inventory is empty.
I have a few friends who couldnt open their MMB o=
i got one that can't be opened by a quest ? the ravana quest
Oh really now, I just [b]found[/b] one and it said " Use item inventory is full"
Nvm I just bought one and it worked >.>, This is comfirmed
If they delete all the glitched ones, I'm gonna get so pissed since i invested my bank on this LOL
I'm not sure if these are glitched or not since all of mine are from monster drops and I still can't open a single one yet.
Aren't they all glitched? A monster dropped one and I couldn't open it.

What? I'm talking about the people who's entire bank of meso comes from selling books and merching MMBs.
@OneRockGod: There were two different glitches. The first one was glitched in such a way that they could have been believed to be fake. The second glitch is clearly not fake. They fixed the first one that I made this thread about the day I made this thread
Yes! i saw one mmb on ground and i couldnt open.
I got one from the boxes I get from Monster Park . . and it's unopenable
[quote=Ecyz]Wow, that's...weird. Hopefully this doesn't go public or some people will be ruined.[/quote]

Glitched*
unless you mean to tell me the chief regret monk i killed was trolling me
They're not fake they're all glitched I have 500 left and I opened some awhile ago and now it won't let me open anymore since a few weeks ago also I got one on my DB at ToT and I couldn't open that either
[quote=herborist]You guys are all idiots. These aren't fake, MMBs are just glitched. I have five from drops that won't open because they say my use inventory is full.[/quote]
yup that happend to me too.
So how exactly can you tell if its a fake MMB? By trying to open it and telling your inventory is full? I got one from a drop in ToT and I tried opening it but it still tells me my inventory is full.
Umm actually I got a Mmb from Stronghold mobs during 2x and I couldn't use it so maybe there glitched atm or somthing? Idk just offering my 2 cents on the subject.
uhh i just got a MMB from pink bean TOTAL LEGIT,
and i get the message my inventory is full
Yeah all the MMB's i looted today are glitched,
ty nexin 4 fixin
lazy h0es

Last patch MMBs that were dropping freshly were glitched.
The issue was resolved in a brief maintenance, but MMBs during that period of time are infact glitched, until Nexon decides to create and NPC to exchange them for fresh MMBs, or until they rot away on everyones' mules.
Well I don't see how my mmbs could be fake seeing I got them from mobs I figured it be a glitch in their game for the reasoning as to why I couldn't open them. It was just after that USC or SC occurred don't really recall which is was that messed everything up. Nonetheless, it doesn't matter now I'm hell banned so even if I could open the books I'd just fill up my inventory needlessly seeing i cant drop anything.
Edit: Oh. I didn't see these recent comments - Interesting! This must be why I'm finding it so hard to get books I need.
@paying: I'm sure that MMB's are not fake (the ones coming from the shops) I've got 3 MMB's from Monster Park and 1 from mobs in different characters and I can't open them. So in overall MMB's are glitched, not fake though.
If this was mentioned earlier, my apologies I didn't want to get through 5 pages x)
[quote=Shad0wriderz]I dont get, I get some from mobs, but it still says I cant open it. Should I drop them?[/quote]
Better to store them on a mule character then open the books when the glitch is fixed.
I dont get, I get some from mobs, but it still says I cant open it. Should I drop them?
this is soo old...
[quote=paying]They weren't like this before. I made this thread in v132. It would be more fake than just a glitch with the other ones because seemingly only those massive botter stores had the fake ones and stuff dropped by like expedition bosses could still be opened. The current issue is a glitch instead[/quote]
i found one at the blue dragon turtles @ leafre and it didnt open. i think its more a glitch lol
@paying
nah the books are glitched up again i got a mmb today from a run to dead mine 3
and i cant open it it says use invos full
oh snap who bumped a old thread lol... oh well glitched up might be issue with jett books as i here you cant get them from mmb
so a coding flaw maybe o.o yet to see jett book from mmb
I had just got an MMB from beating Busted Ravana as a quest reward and its not opening saying my use inventory is full so it's a glitch after all.
[quote=Skyenets]Rather than them being fake, wouldn't you say they're just glitched? I just got a few from Empress, which I couldn't open.[/quote]

Seeing how he bought them from a store, it's easy to make assumptions of them being faked, along with duped items.

@Aeronomx: Nexon tends to unfix all their fixes once before having them permanently fixed
@javar77 The current issue in v134 mimics this issue but the broken mmbs seem to be from legitimate sources now. It wasn't like that during the patch where I made this thread
@KilIerCombo: Nothing wrong with that, they'll make them work eventually!
I've had an error with MMB's. This comes from my stack i've had prior to the GU. It seems nexon must've done something so just need to wait till they apply the fixes.
the interesting thing is nexon knows about it:

my guildie had one since the 23rd or so. i'm not entirely sure where it came from either though >_<
thanks for the warning! it's awesome to see good people in maple who wouldn't try to take advantage of this to make money<3
Even if they don't work for now, they will fix them sure enough. The prices haven't drop at all, unlike the first time when this was report they went down to 3m which doesn't seem like a lot but when you buy bulks of 100 at a time it sure adds up the savings.
[quote=TheAxelFenrir]Whats that floating purple ghastly with the chains behind you?[/quote]
It means he's OP.
It seems like they messed up the books once again @paying, right when we had a good week of them working.

Thread as of May 2nd : http://www.basilmarket.com/forum/2650408/2/43696721Mmb_Bug_Now_F4.html
All I have to say is, they really need to transfer all the fixed bugs towards the new patches they release.
[quote=HerOutlaw]It's odd because the thread says the MMBs don't mix but my WORKING MMBs mixed with 2 NON-WORKING MMBs and now they all don't work :o[/quote]
They are now in one single slot stacking, confirmed by @HerOutlaw.
yay they are gonna fix it tonight maintenance
Confirmed for Windia, I have a few.
[quote=Resmiles]Lol I got 10 of these and realized they were not opening. Ended up dropping them in henesys market, then the people found out they were fake.[/quote]
Hahhhhhh and kevin took it
