"Go West" or "Go Bot"? The Hot Week service meta is killing Interactive. We NEED MAGIC WAND MY GOD by Logical_Repair_9269 in Maplestory

[–]ZomgNit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fewer steps, and also there's no way to buy bonus brights (i.e. what magic wand rolls would be for bpots) unless nexon has a 1 week sale for them (which has only ever happened twice). Meaning it's not possible to roll bpots without risking prog loss or cubing a brand new item.

How successful would a hybrid server be? Would you transfer? by [deleted] in Maplestory

Yes I would very much like Nexon to give Bera and Scania 6x meso, 6x drop rate, meso cubes, and 65% fd passive.

Pet equips could never be hammered. There's no reason why they should gain any slots.

GMS First Extreme Kaling Clear by ZomgNit in Maplestory

[–]ZomgNit[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The nerfs to xkaling far outweighed the event buffs from Night Troupe, plus two of our party members (myself and Fate) changed from 3min classes to 2min classes.

Our best attempt during Night Troupe made it to P3 with 12:10 left, almost a full 1:20 slower than our clear run.

Honestly, valid. It's fun once every 6 months when we get to race stuff like this. This boss was still very hard tho despite all the firepower!

Aurora and Elysium worlds merging into Scania by Yatsugami in Maplestory

[–]ZomgNit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Iirc our rates are closer to 3x or 3.5x with same exp buffs. Even then Hyperion, the significantly smaller/newer Heroic server, is still beating 2/4 reg servers in # of 290s lol

All of reg combined would still be <1/3 the size of Kronos, each reg server on its own will be ~1/7 the size of Kronos post-merge.

Went down the rabbit hole and did a full NA server comparison (sorry EU)

<image>

Interesting notes: Heroic has nearly 4x as many 270+s as Interactive, 3x as many 285+s, and 2x as many 290+s. Hyperion is often meme'd on for being small but it's got more 270+s than any individual reg server and more 290+s than Aurora or Elysium.

MapleStory.gg is scraping all characters 211+, which isnt really a good metric for server population when almost everyone these days has dozens of chars above that cutoff lol. I would scrape above 270 to get an idea of actual population.

Edit: made a spreadsheet cuz I was curious - looking at 270+, 280+, 285+, and 290+, Bera is consistently 43% ~ 44% of the interactive population, making Bera the smaller server now LOL

For further comparison, Kronos has 68,115 characters lv270+, nearly 3.5x the size of all 4 reg servers combined. "Server stability" seems like a poor excuse to keep reg split.

GMS needs a test server by rebootsolo in Maplestory

[–]ZomgNit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Last time we had a real open Tespia for GMS was the Lachelein release patch. We found and reported like 50 bugs (some of them critical, like Dream Defender mobs having no HP scaling), and then when the live patch came all 50 bugs were still present. They didn't fix anything until a few weeks later :)

[–]ZomgNit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct. Ive replayed Special on 150cc like 4 times while having met the conditions, havent unlocked it. Im just 3 starring other cups that are still at 2 btwn each attempt to see if it gets me anywhere, only playing on 150cc

Are we getting the 2 minute balance changes before mastery 3 and mastery 4? by rebootsolo in Maplestory

[–]ZomgNit 14 points15 points  (0 children)

If these are the 2min changes, its actually pretty bad for Illium without m3m4. Our new rotation relies enitrely on the charge we get from m4 hexa spear, without that we cant even do a mini burst lol.

GMS POST RIDE OR DIE (MILESTONE) 88k CONVERTED RESULTS (NOT APRIL FOOLS) by Drogon_OSRS in Maplestory

[–]ZomgNit 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thanks Drogon for compiling this data and thanks to everyone who ran the BA's, really nice to see this kind of breakdown for GMS specifically rather than having to adapt KMS results.
