We will be performing a scheduled minor patch on Thursday, February 9, 2017 at 7:00 AM PST (10:00 AM EST / 4:00 PM CET / 2:00 AM AEDT). We anticipate the maintenance to last approximately 3 hours, concluding around 10:00 AM PST (1:00 PM EST / 7:00 PM CET / 5:00 AM AEDT).

Please note that the estimated length of time for each maintenance is subject to change without notification.

Thanks for your patience!

Time:

Thursday, February 9, 2017
- PST: 7:00 AM – 10:00 AM
- EST: 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM
- CET: 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM
- AEDT: 2:00 AM – 5:00 AM (Feb. 10)

What will be unavailable:

- All MapleStory game servers.

Changes and Updates:

- MapleStory will be updated to v.182.2.0.
- Compensation for the stability issues after the February 2 game update will be distributed. Please claim your gifts by clicking the gift box icon on the left side of the screen before 11:59 PM PST on February 19, 2017.
- Players in Reboot world who purchased Double V Packs that had expired items will be given a replacement of the item that they lost. Please claim your reward by clicking the gift box icon on the left side of the screen before 11:59 PM PST on February 24, 2017.
- Please note that the gift box system only holds 15 items. If you are missing any rewards, please collect any existing rewards and log out and back in to receive the rest of the rewards.
- The Dimensional Mirror will now correctly display all locations.
- Holding the Up or Down arrow keys in the Dimensional Mirror UI will no longer cause the UI to break.
- Guild SP rewards for the Flag Race will be properly distributed.
- The NPC Maple Administrator will properly give players an Arcane Symbol if the option to recover an Arcane Symbol is selected.
- The Chinese New Year Coin Shop will be extended, and will now end at 4:00 PM PST on February 19, 2017.
- The Gachapon list will be updated to apply the February 8 Cash Shop Update.
- Several years ago, the MapleStory game team introduced a Non-Player Character (NPC) named Donald. To avoid any misunderstanding, we have decided to replace Donald with a new NPC with the same functionality. The new character will appear on March 1 during our game update. Moving forward, we will strive to keep Maple World a politically neutral environment for all of our players.
- A hack which allows players to skip to the last act of the Black Heaven content has been blocked.
- A hack which allows players to cause other players' Jaguars to attack with random skills has been blocked.
- The Damage % stat from the Choco Power! buff has been reduced from 50% to 20%.
- Using the Choco-Neutralizer Implant to reach Lv. 250 Choco Power will no longer instantly cause the Choco Frenzy stun effect.

    Extending the Chinese New Year Coin Shop is nice. If you would take it out of Lag Hall it would be even nicer.

    Here's a wild guess:

    2x coupons, CNY coins, maybe some safety charms? If you're expecting NX, don't get your hopes too high

    Evan link skill has been fixed for several weeks now.
    You need to log into your Evan first, and then your other characters will be able to see the link.

    Theyve never given nx in gms so me hoping for that would be illogical, obviously, id be asking so i know which character to accept it on. Even if it is just coupons, some characters have more utilities for them.

    You can look at the items in the giftbox notifier before claiming them.
    I don't think they'll put all the items in a single box, since that requires coding a new game item. But if for some reason they do, you just have to wait a few minutes after servers-up for someone to post the contents on the box on the forums or the subreddit.
    (All that said, I have no idea why they won't list the compensation in the notice. Maybe they'd rather not leave an official record of what it was, for whatever reason.)

    This update came in bad time and there was not any warnings in game.

    I was playing Monster Park with full buffs and 2x exp.

    I was playing Spirit Valley 200lv-209lv.

    I am level 185.

    I was just entering last area until I got disconnect due this update.

    RIP level up exp.

    2x EXP does not apply in monster park and Chocolate Buff is permanent so you didn't lose out on much.

    There was a warning in chat at 5 am CST and every half hour after that. I saw it and knew it was coming... was also dissapointed because I have nothing to do until the game comes back up. lol

    Maybe they considered it too minor to justify a line in the maintenance notice. (Unlike some typos)
    Or maybe they didn't even know it got fixed. It just happened as randomly as it broke, as a result of merging code from KMS/JMS/CMS.
