Skill Nodes It would seem the best practice for skill nodes is to maximize them to include your 2 best or most used skills. As a Merc i would want a tri core with Ishtar and AFA as often as possible, however i have been advancing the levels of the cores i do use. On to my question, i have been able to craft better cores and then remove a lvl 3 core, and use the new lvl 1 core with the desired skills. Then enhanced with the lvl 3 core bringing it to lvl 3. I am just worried, that this is maybe a glitch, and not a thing. Can anyone confirm this is a fact and nothing to worry about. Sure helps get perfect cores.

Is Maplestory trying to kill itself? Is it just me, or are they trying to make people quit maple? You can be banned for holding your finger on the Kannas kishin key. What floors me, is that there was no advantage to it for the kanna, they weren't in a party just helping some people training at MP3, while glancing at the television. Then they remove you from the ranking system. Would it not have been possible to do what they have done with almost all mashing skills, after a set time it stops unless you move and start mashing all over again. Meanwhile we deal with hackers and botters all over the maps of Maple.

Couple questions Hyper Stats and Focus Spirit Ok, so here goes. Def Ignore hyper stat, from level 9 to level 10, it says 27% to 30%, however my stats window stays at 88% def ignore at level 9 or level 10, so should i keep it at level 9, and use the points elsewhere? The link skill Focus Spirit from my level 210 Beast tamer is only giving me level 1 focus spirit, not the level 3 it should be getting. If i log onto my beast tamer, it says level 3 and that player doesn't exist?

Im nervous now Whenever i see a service that lasts this long, especially when they said they were going to delete duped items, I see a mistake that happened, and they had to restore from backup and try again, because half of our stuff was deleted from our accounts. They then log on and OMG WTF. Extended 6 hours for the server back up and 3 more for them trying to fix the same problem again. Am I wrong? Just give us the cubes already! EDIT: I should be careful with what i say, they said an exploit, not dupes.

Show me more!
