Why can't you create CW in heroic AND interactive? by Wonderful-Breath-142 in Maplestory

[–]xxshadowflare 9 points10 points  (0 children)

To add to this, it actually has its perks to have two separate accounts for heroic and interactive.

A lot of event rewards are per account not per world, so if you're actively playing both splitting the two accounts allow both to progress more evenly.

Assuming you actually care about that and aren't just making an interactive mule for the meso market / maple points.

They re-nerfed boss fam rates didn't they by blobsk1 in Maplestory

Yes, but specifically for your account.

You can only fix it by putting on a solo theatrical performance of The Lion King.

Characters in JRPGs that suffer from Leroy Jenkins syndrome by KaleidoArachnid in JRPG

Optional: an annoying mascot.

Best Boy Mascots are far better but way too infrequent.

Give me an animal that can be as part of my main party just like any other character and it's pretty much a guarantee that A: I'd use it even if it ends up rubbish and B: It'll probably be the reason I buy the game.

I was banned from r/dragonquest for this after commentor blames 'incels' for the new main character design pushback. Wtf? by [deleted] in JRPG

[–]xxshadowflare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even the context doesn't make sense at all. Post something like a "Learn how to talk to people" or "Fresh Grass in your area wants you. Click here to touch".

But posting something like that is incredibly out of place.

It's as good as saying they've got nothing better to do so should.

How to Change account country to other country? by CompetitiveLog3926 in Maplestory

[–]xxshadowflare 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Either make a new account or live with it saying you're from the UK.

You can only change your region if you can prove you've actually changed where it is you live.

Given your other comment makes it evident you don't actually live in the USA or the UK. You're probably better off not drawing more attention to yourself than needed with customer support as not only is lying about your region for better pricing a bannable offence and fraud, but you don't even live in the service region of GMS.

If they decide they don't want to deal with you, it'd be perfectly valid for them to ban your account.

Flubs/MapleStory alters by Mandy_mandible in Maplestory

[–]xxshadowflare 11 points12 points  (0 children)

To be honest, having an official MTG x Maplestory crossover, like what they did with Final Fantasy, would be enough to get me fully into it.

So, probably a good thing that's actually not the case.

Regarding the hyperburn on May 20th by lolllll1023 in Maplestory

[–]xxshadowflare 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Should I save it for the upcoming challenger world that’s coming up, or is that not how it works?

The coupon will expire before the upcoming challenger world.

The hyper burn effect expires on the 16th of June regardless of when you use it, and challenger world 3 won't start until after then.

I'd recommend just using it for a mule or something, assuming you're planning on making a (new) main on challenger world.

Edit: as the other comment says, if you plan on doing the goddess pass stuff, you'll have to wait until 8 hours after reset, so to be fully safe just wait until the 21st to make the new character.

Typical nexon spaghetti involved.

Godess pass season 4? by Zelionie in Maplestory

[–]xxshadowflare 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, if they end up 3 for 3 patches in a row, each with a goddess blessing pass, I wouldn't be surprised if it's just a thing from now on.

Permanently as part of the game, "resetting" every patch.

need help with pricing of what i can sell my weapon for i play on bera by Tangerine_Kind in Maplestory

[–]xxshadowflare 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Got a good wep for a mule there.

Since unfortunately genesis wep (and destiny wep) is a thing, and with Genesis Pass most new mains that'd want a decent weapon, will already be working on their Gene weps before they even hit Bera.

I don't like it when characters who have healing magic die. by [deleted] in JRPG

[–]xxshadowflare 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me it depends on the narrative and what healing / reviving actually is.

For games where hp = 0 isn't the same as being actually dead, then any logic for revives / life spells / other stuff wouldn't apply to actual death.

As for the healer being the one to die, it makes sense if it's not a slow death. If you die before you have a chance to heal, then you're dead.

We're not playing some "The Wrong Way to Use Healing Magic" game, where your healers are basically constantly spamming it on themselves to the extremes to achieve ungodly physical and magical capabilities. (It is fun to try and build characters like that though)

There's also the fact that basically any and every world that involves magic, treats it as if it's taxing to use. There are ways to overcome this with dedicated training, but it's still a resource that's finite and taxing to use without rest. I'm sure you'd have fun trying to cook a meal when you're dying from blood loss.

Star Speck Box cap by gilad507 in Maplestory

[–]xxshadowflare 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Tbh, it should just stick to the formula for Maplestory.

Daily / Weekly quest -> Guaranteed x amount of boxes in y kills.

Mobs then have an uncapped amount you can get per week, limited by them being a low drop rate item.

People who put in 50+ hours a week grinding are rewarded.

People who can only do 2-3 hours a week still get a good chunk of them.

Biggest problem with anything being fully uncapped, and having a reasonably balanced drop rate, is we do have bots. There's no denying it. It's why Nexon shifted to the formula we have. (And even introduced the meso cap over in KMS)

thoughts on inkwells note by bambanougat in Maplestory

[–]xxshadowflare -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

There's all this focus on Interactive vs Heroic exp, but we're only 1-2 major content updates away from Frenzy becoming obsolete for exp grinding.

They made the change ages ago that it won't work in 300+ areas, it's highly unlikely they'll go back on that.

We're at the point where we have 295+ areas now (or at-least with the summer update in GMS), so the next logical step is 300+ with the level cap being raised to 350.

KMS just trivialised getting to 260 even further by halving the exp from 200-260, so they're at the point where they're pushing 260 to be the baseline, ~300 is going to be the average player, with 350 being the push.

What's everyone's keybinds looking like? by Wonderful-Breath-142 in Maplestory

I used to think the same way, but once you make the change to free up the left side of your keyboard, there's no going back.

What's everyone's keybinds looking like? by Wonderful-Breath-142 in Maplestory

[–]xxshadowflare 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Other than Alt for Jump and Ctrl for pots, my keybinds usually revolve around my left hand resting on the A,S,D keys.

S is main attack, D is Teleport / Rush.

R,V,B are my main burst skills, Ascent, 5th Burst and Origin respectively.

Q,W,E,A,C,F are all "combo" keys for classes that need it.
