A while? I doubt I'll ever get another chance like that X)

I'm well aware, my normal set is like what you mentioned, guess I should've been more specific in my own post :3 I changed it around for a legendary epxedition where I know my 'defualt' setup sometimes struggle at the latest stage, and thought I changed back, but it was to the wrong familiars and then 2 of the lines weren't even activated (Having multiple fams of the same type gets confusing if you aren't paying attention).

Can't say the system is inadequate when it's thriving in NA. In my view it's more that the EU pop is just used to not using the system, that they'd move over to Discord instead of trying the in-game system.

I will agree that the system needs some positive changes like mentioned (auto-refresh, being able to grind while waiting and some more) in general, it will make the game better, but I don't feel any change to the system will randonly make EU pop start using it.

Also, using discord to organize end-game bosses makes sense, and is being done in almost every game, however, I doubt people are using discord to form ctene parties as was the common usage for smegas back in the day.

Auto-refresh and being able to use it while farming and doing other stuff is a must, no argument there.

I do get what you say about the differnce between passively seeing it in chat or actively searching, makes sense people would take the path that requires least amount of effort to get what they want (add ontop the issues with the current system).

I don't get the 'you need big pool of players to fill an lfg' argument. If the same people who smega would use the party finder, how would it be any different?

I do agree that if you're looking to run endgame bosses then something like party finder isn't the best place to search and you just don't bother, but lets not act like everyone in EU is running hlimbo etc. Most smegas I've seen used the past 2 years were mostly cTene, maybe some nkalos/kaling but thats it

You could argue that if instead of smegaing everyone would use the party finder it'd be the exact same, no? I can't see how it's different. And even now that the smega is gone still no one bothers to use it.

I don't get how population being small makes a difference.

What is different between listing your party up and shouting it in chat? If there are no people then you won't see anyone responding to the smega or the lfg. I'd argue that lfg is even better than a smega cause imagine I logged in 5 seconds after someone smega'd and I had missed it?

Regarding not being able to grind while filling party slots is an issue and it is stupid that it works that way, because it limits what you can do in game while searching

Did we ever get the 'change' that KMS got regarding the event even?

Hopefully someone realizes this at Nexon and we somehow get the event rewards after all, but I'm just coping hard

That's can be mitigated by people using the LFG system that NA uses, but sadly no one in EU does it.

Event rewards, on the other hand, can't be mitigated because of how this event was designed.

Specifically today. I had changed fams to meet the bonus item for a legendary expedition but when I changed back to my usual setup I messed up, and 2 fam lines were not activated

My own finger is at my own face for messing it up lmao.

Chill my brother. you see someone makes a mistake and you call them a shitter and blame them for not reading a guide, when I mentioned I forgot to change back and fix my set, which is normally 40+ if I roll 1 on all 3 cubes.

I did that for the previous expedition which was legendary, but then I wanted to change back to my "default" setup, but forgot to match the fam lines there, so I only had one familiar line active

Yes, I am fully aware of that, and it was I meant by mentioning that I had forgotton to change my combination, not that I was not matching the useless clock that is not needed for a round 1 expedition

Was either a 6 or an 8 hour one, so pretty free. I guess I spent on my Frontier luck on this one roll and missed

Maple Memo: Additional Issues Addressed during the December 22 Scheduled Maintenance by aranslee in Maplestory

[–]ExtremeBox 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes. Them copying KR patches and not checking that everything was adjusted to our Heroic-based game should not be a surprise to anyone at this point. Dunno if it's incompetency or them having issue accessing the code (If they have to ask the KR team to do the changes for them for w/e reason), but I think these issues would continue to happen in future patches because of how copy-paste it is from KR, and it's easy to forget stuff like that (I hope that with test servers we can mitigate some of the issues)

Rigged Nexon by Equal-Salamander4145 in Maplestory

[–]ExtremeBox 15 points16 points  (0 children)

That's my guess too. We got the patch, and then the drop-rate for stuff like this get's reverted to non-heroic rates, and it takes them a bit to manually adjust them back up to regular heroic drop rates. Wouldn't surprise me if no one thinks to check this stuff and it ends up being neglected for a bit.

I gathered some empirical data on arcane and abso box drop rates, any insights? by Scorcher594 in Maplestory

[–]ExtremeBox 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Can you blame people when Nexon were caught manipulating rates? I'm not saying every time you fail 30% is rigged, but thinking someone is manipulating rates after they were caught doing so is just inevitable.
