✓ Heliseum Has Reduced Spawn Rate in GMS

Bug type: Map / Monster (not sure which)

Brief bug summary: GMS has a lower spawn rate of normal monsters in Heliseum, specifically the forest area and the Downtown Black Market area, (but not the Tyrant's Castle area), compared to other versions (KMS, JMS, CMS, TMS, and MapleSEA).

More details:
Years ago (not sure exactly when), Heliseum's forest area and Downtown Black Market area were given spawn boosts, with more monsters appearing in the map at a time. However, GMS never received the spawn rate increase while other servers have. This issue is very similar to another bug report I posted not too long ago, which was eventually fixed.

Here are a couple images as reference.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Head to any map with monsters in Heliseum's forest area or Downtown Black Market area.
2. Compare the spawn rates with any other MapleStory server aside from GMS. Note that GMS's spawn rate is incredibly lacking in comparison.

Character name: GreenGales

Character level: 260 (the area is 90+, however)

Character job: Wind Archer (applies to any class, however)

World name: Bera (applies to any world, however)

Date and time of the incident: November 26, 2020 at 5:00 PM EST (but this issue has existed for years)
