I have been on two different maps (Perion and Kerning) where a rune appeared and then almost immediately went off right as I got to it (and I had seen mobs being killed around me on the second one) but I didn't see another player and there was no red dot on the map. The most recent time - the player actually partied me because I didn't leave (I am new to Hayato and I thought maybe I was making the purple tags on the monsters somehow but it looked like a Kanna attack - and sure enough the person who partied me was a Kanna) I have been playing Maplestory for over 10 years - never have seen anything like this before)

    That, my friend, is what a 2017 hacker looks like. Some of them are that good that they're not visible on the map (the character is usually outside the bounds of the map), and it is, indeed, likely a Kanna that is making the purple marks appear above the monsters. The screenshot ikematsu posted is just a straight-up graphical glitch, but pretty lulz nonetheless :D
