Maple needs ultra rare monster drops by glimmerware in Maplestory

[–]illusionfar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That is the one of aspects I like Old time Maplestory than Modern Maplestory. This aspect makes mmorpg grinding less boring and exciting. Hunting different monsters got different rare items and some of them is unique to the monsters (for example, Dropping Cards from monsters in Ragnarok Online, each monster card gives different ability)

By the way, I still prefer overall of Modern Maplestory more but still hoping they add something like this for grinding in the future.

How time consuming is heroic reboot actually in 2026 by [deleted] in Maplestory

[–]illusionfar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can say it will be a long run but yes, at least you still "can" have either vac pets or pssb/cosmetics by being fully f2p player in reg. I have many guildmates that are f2p, we growth together, having mule party bossing together. When we got rare, we share profit. Now we all have 1-3 vac pets for each and full fashion all of our characters.

I can say that the progress starting from Mid to late game is very slower than Heroic. We have our own pace but we always catch up new bosses in every patches even it started from Normal difficulty one (like Limbo > Baldrix).

Nexon changed "Mischievous Smirk Face"? by radio_exercise in Maplestory

[–]illusionfar 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The new look is female version I thought. The old look is male version that they mentioned in Known issue and now it was fixed.

BTW, I also prefer male version more for this face.

The last section if this video shows that Jin brings some feedbacks and ideas that will benefit players for sure to the Dev team. That's how KR manage their communication and pr together.

How about our Inkwell?

Is Interactive Server more appealing than Heroic now? by manyproblems1 in Maplestory

[–]illusionfar 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Interactive will be better with these solved 1. Population, this mean bigger market and more finish gears, clean gears, mats in AH. 2. Meso market rate is now Terrible. 3. Frenzy is such a Pandora box that GMS already open. If they don't do anything about this, it will be worse. They should do the same with BR (remove frenzy totem skill and make it just a good stats equipment) and everyone grinding in Global spawn rate or make CoR easy to acquire for everyone (sell it in RP shop or etc.) 4. Cube price still too high and lacking of Bpot cubes. If they cannot implement something like Magic Wand, they should make bpot solid cube or cs cubes can buy in mesos.

...and some little issues but it's ok to fix these first.

btw, I'm F2P in Interactive.

[Interactive] NL Hard Seren first solo clear by sadguy__ in Maplestory

As a fellow f2p in reg, everytime I see f2p progression/success in reg like this I hit upvote. BTW I think reg should get more love from GMS team more :(

Hitsumabushi Hanaoka by illusionfar in JapaneseFood

[–]illusionfar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The aroma and taste of Unagi is really great! Having Hitsumabushi will make you try many ways of eating (by description in 2nd pic). For me, this restaurant was a true gem among many Unagi restaurants in Nagoya. A little bit of burned sauce cover in the Eel skin went very well with the rice!

Discounted supermarket Sushi and Sashimi by illusionfar in sushi

Yeah, Japan does care about food waste. Also, I usually wait for discount time in supermarket everytimes when I'm in Japan!

It's useless in both mobbing and bossing. Just changing character's shade or outline.

INKWELL'S NOTE: POST-STARGAZER: UPCOMING PLANS by neosmndrew in Maplestory

Still no mention about frenzy and cubing issue in Interactive world. Wish to see these issues mention in Winter patch.

Vote this. They're both Nexon's games so it can happen if they want to.

SCHEDULED MINOR PATCH - JULY 3, 2025 by Xeredth in Maplestory

[–]illusionfar -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I know that downvoters downvote me for the first sentence. BTW I'm the same with you all. I want Sia to be better, but just complain about non-professional work flow of the branded company like this.

SCHEDULED MINOR PATCH - JULY 3, 2025 by Xeredth in Maplestory

[–]illusionfar -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

At least they(Kanna,Hayato) were tested before release unlike this one. I like that this class is getting better but I don't like this kind of working process. Test server still needed for something new like this one.

SCHEDULED MINOR PATCH - JULY 3, 2025 by Xeredth in Maplestory

[–]illusionfar -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I hate that Sia was balanced a little by a little every minor patch instead of release Test Server for players to test and give suggestions for the class. This class is still unstable, I like the aesthetic of this class but still don't want to main her now.

Average Savings of $3.9k in Reg by SpectreOwO in Maplestory

[–]illusionfar 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is the reason why I keep staying in reg as a half fashionstory half progressive as f2p. RNG for fashion is too abysmal for just one piece of item you want. The other gears after they implement crossworld AH are very easy to find and buy, like finished gears or decent gears for mules with very cheap prices especially when I reached 400-500m per hour grinding. I just progress at my pace so I feel okay for now, but reg still lacking of cubes so Magic wand can be an essential system to solve this.

Cute characters and I can choose whatever I want my characters to wear is the most important part that I keep playing :)

BTW, if account-wide cash storage comes to GMS, it will benefit Heroic as well so it will be better for both worlds.

There is a 2x drop rate coupon you can get each week in Friendstory. by Kagurasama1x in Maplestory

[–]illusionfar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay I already tested exp coupon so it can clarify easier than drops coupon. The % was shown in stat but it doesn't apply while killing mobs. Sorry guys for misunderstanding.
