  • Stuff for next ‘A Better Maple’

    Server Time: Add an in-game clock on player's UI.

    Kritias: You did well allowing the eluna express to be accessed every hour 24 hours a day, but that is only one time limited event. Currently Kritias offers 8 invasions per day, 1 every 2 hours starting 1 A.M. pst, ending at 3 P.M. pst. Changing Kritias invasions to every 2 hours all hours of the day, for a total of 12 invasions daily, or even changing it to every 3 hours, 24 hours a day, to keep the 8 invasions daily, would help tremendously for people who cannot make the awkward timed invasions. Many players who live in NA and work during the day cannot get on for any invasions because of their terrible timing, and requiring 400 invasions or dailies for tyrant gloves is quite a commitment to get, especially in reboot where you can only get tyrant gloves in that manner. Also allowing teleport rocks to be usable in Kritias would help greatly, there is no reason why they shouldn't be allowed there, especially when people can teleport into Kritias with the hyper teleport rocks ONLY if they had saved the maps inside of Kritias while doing the prequest line.

    Nebulites/Flames/25 Star equips: As a Reboot player, PLEASE allow us a better way to get nebulites. Nebulites as how they are currently are just purely not strong enough, and way too hard to get. After playing the game thousands of hours, at level 239, I still am missing nebulites on most of my gear. The nebulites I have acquired are majority C rank nebulites, and each one takes hours of farming to acquire. Because there are so many useless nebulites like weapon defense, accuracy, facial expressions, etc... to get even 1% mainstat C nebulites for our gear takes many fusions, which even have a chance of tiering down. A nebulites, the most rare and helpful nebulites, are practically impossible to obtain in reboot with the exception of the Maplehood Watch event which comes around once per year. Aside from that one event, getting an A neb takes literally months of farming. The current state of nebulites makes them equivelent to about 1 extra starforce for a C Neb, which is nowhere near strong enough to replace flames or 25 stars which GMS currently doesn't have. Some possible solutions for nebulites would be to allow nebulite boxes to be purchased with meso (on reboot), similar to cubes, or add an area where nebulites could be specifically farmed for(arcane river as a suggestion), or add them to shops such as legion, ursus, and kritias.. There also needs to be a boost to how strong nebulites are. The addition of flames, 25 stars, and an update for nebulites would solve many problems, not only would it allow more people to have hope of clearing end game bosses, it would also revive some less useful shops, like the kritias shop, ursus shop, and revive crafting (flames can be crafted in KMS). Nebulites alone are far too rare and too weak to help players that are in anything lower than the top .01% to kill the current end game bosses. In Reboot, very few groups are killing lucid, and no one can even hope to attempt hard lucid until we get much, much stronger.

    Chat: Please allow us to filter chat for things like honor exp, drops from events like the valentines one and the rocket one, where it counts how many points you have in the chat box. Also allow us to scroll through the chat box while looting. Currently if you try to scroll through the chat box while looting many things, even just meso bags, it acts as if the items you loot take up a line of chat, so the chat box scrolls up rapidly while looting if its currently being scrolled through.

    Cash Shop: Increase how often the stamp shop is changed, and add more items to it. As a reboot player, where no trading of any items, even duplicate cash items can happen, the stamp shop is a godsend. The only issue is the inventory of the stamp shop stays the same for months at a time. When it does eventually change, it only has a few items in it, and many aren't special for how many stamps they cost. In addition, allow us to purchase monster park entries for meso again. I personally did monster park 7 times every sunday every week for the past few months, because I had a goal of getting to lvl 250, and the exp coupons gained from that helped tremendously. Currently the only way to obtain extra monster park entries is through the override coin shop, where you can only purchase 1 entry per day with a 1 day duration, per character.

    Reboot Specific: Meso farming is in a great place when compared to how it was a few months ago, however, as more people play reboot, the meso farming maps become ever more crowded. Ghost Ship, Mysterious Path 3, Alien Corridor 6, and Longest Ride on ByeBye Station are the current meso farming areas, as well as some less well known areas in Ulu city and Malaysia. However, even with how many maps are available, they still fill up. ByeBye station, a theme dungeon in fantasy theme park, is great as is, but it caps at 20 entries per channel, at a maximum of 400 people. (20 channels). The purpose of the instanced ByeBye map is to allow people to meso farm without stress about having to hold a map 2+ hours before the 2x events even start. There is also no way you can be ks'd out of your map at ByeBye station. As an instanced map, there should not be a cap to the number of people who can enter. Every 2x event for the past few weeks has had ByeBye fill up, so no more people can enter. This leads to people waiting outside the map hoping that someone will exit soon to reset their 2 hour timer in order to steal the spot.

    Inventory: Being able to have equipment "setups" available to be saved, and switched on the go, would help tremendously for switching in between damage, and drop gear. Having to manually equip items in boss fights without a chest containing the rewards, but with death counts, like lotus, damien, and chaos vellum cause many people to either not risk putting on drop gear, therefore getting little to no soul shards, stigma stones, S cores, emblems... etc, or continue dodging abilities, while changing into drop gear one by one, where getting hit could mean you die, and at the very least you have to stop changing gear since you cannot change while you are in "combat" (recently been hit). Also, even though many items that used to stack at 300 now stack at 3000, inventory still needs to be more condensed. Having the ability to get higher slot Soul Bags would help tremendously in reboot. Many players like myself have the best souls currently in our weapons, and just save all other souls until a "5x chance for magnificient" soul event comes around, and with how few events of those we get, players like me have upwards of 30 stacks stacks of souls in our inventory, even after using our 8 slot soul bags. Also allowing ore drops to stack above 100 would help greatly.

    Nodes/5th job: Allow us to disassemble more than one node at a time. When you are getting hundreds, even thousands of nodestones while leveling to 250, the time it takes to disassemble them is absurd. Please give us a mass disassemble function, and another great utility would be to auto-disassemble nodes for classes that are not your own (with the exception of classes that can job switch, don't have the function auto disassemble nodes which they may use in case of a job switch, an example being explorer night lord disassembling any kaiser nodestones, but keeping all NL, shadower, and dual blade nodes). In addition, it would be helpful to add a way to sort through your nodes easier, having them sorted by usable nodes, special nodes, common (class specific) skills, etc. Also please make the visual size of arcane symbol drops and arcane river droplet stones drops the same visual size as nodestones, massive enough to see very easily and not be missed.

    Legion: Allowing players to save specific setups would be very useful, for leveling, you would obviously want to put many pieces into bonus exp, but while bossing that is completely unnecessary and just a waste of pieces having them in bonus exp. Rearranging your legion board for every time you want to level versus do bossing is too slow, add presets that allow us to save setups. As well, when a legion piece is overlapping over another, you should make that overlapped square red, so people can more easily see that they are wasting a square.
