About a month ago, an exploit was released to the public where you were able to increase your damage x400 get any buffs you want including the reboot buff in other words ( mesos, exp, dmg rate increase) Get the move stormdriver (A move that hits 10bill dmg no matter what ur range is), Monolith on literally any account that used the exploit, Gm dragon roar. And you name it, basically private server kind of things happened to GMS. Idk if the maplestory coders are stupid but they aren't doing anything to the damage exploit,(everything I listed) accounts. Like all you guys have to do is red flag accounts that are suss, like idk 500% bonus damage? 650% crit damage? Monolith skill on reboot characters? Gm dragon roar? Stormdriver? Like easy things you guys can implement but NEXON ISINT DOING ANYTHING. Late game bosses because easy thanks to them not doing anything. All they did was "patch" the exploit from being useable, and did nothing to the abusers. Nexon is with hackers, and don't care about these things. All they do is spread news saying "oh we banned 6k botters in 5 days guys!" Yet you guys don't see the bigger issue. Like if normal people playing can see things like this by looking at fourms, know where hackers hack, botters bot? Why can't GMs do the same? You guys need new GM/ Coders. Here is a gif of what a exploiter is doing at Hard Daimien in reboot with stormdriver 10bill dmg spam with monolith -Removed-

    1. They are stupid, don't know whats going on, and rather catch botters then hackers/exploiters

    Hi, the exploit you mentioned is known and has been reported before.

    If you see someone who has these kinds of skills you should report them immediately. However, the forums are not the place to report players. Please report them through official channels; either in-game (right click on a character>"report" or select the menu icon on the bottom-right of the screen and select "report") or via a ticket located here. If you have not submitted a ticket regarding this user already, you should do so. Forum reports such as these don't help matters, and can become centers for abuse (that's why we've had to disallow them).

    I'll be removing your gif for the above reasons (and the sake of consistency) despite the lack of a username. But again, you should send a ticket to support in an effort to get this player banned.

    I honestly can't answer that; I'm just a forum mod and I have absolutely no power in-game. The only thing I can do is forward the issue. But not reporting players through the official channels makes it even less likely that someone is done.

    We shouldn't have to report these players one by one. What about people who only use their hacked skills where other players can't see, like at bosses?
    This should be handled on the back end, through a database sweep.

    And I don't understand why you'd remove a gif that doesn't name and shame anyone. For consistency? Consistency with what?

    it's not like they have a fix ready and just sitting around, they have to contact the coders over in korea and then have the team put together a fix, and then test said fix.

    taking the game offline before they have a fix ready does nothing other than keep everyone from playing while we have time sensative events going on.

    According to OP, the exploit has already been patched.
    But people who used it before, got to keep all the skills they acquired through it.
