Yo, @OneLetter, the game is still down. I just tried logging in to the American Server and it's dc'd me with the "The game is currently unavailable because.." message. Are you sure you're posting in PST? I'm in California as well, and it's currently 1:35PM PST.
anyway i don't know about you guys but between this great event where i can't earn the coins to buy anything, and all the items that didn't work that they didn't replace for us, I'm probably not going to play anymore. even if I do continue, they're not going to get my money, because this continues to be worse and worse. nothing gets "fixed" quickly unless it's beneficial to players. everything else rots.
There was absolutely no problem with the event other than the fact DIPQ and some other repeatable flat farming areas that have mobs with no drop tables would end up dropping a box every other mob with high drop rate. What i dont understand is yesterday i farmed over 1500 boxes and barely squeaked by with enough coins to buy two things. Do note that 1500 boxes took me hours of fun grinding! the box opening alone took an hour! This 10 coin limit is the death of this event. Yesterday was the first time i saw DIPQ active since its nerf.

Beyond that, it's not as though the Event Shop actually has anything abusable in it. It's generic 10% cleans and Epic pots that are always in shops. Along with chairs and damage skins, which are harmless. And they have limits on them! So instead of letting us enjoy the grind for coins and buy all the fun stuff available in the shop, they kill our ability to grind. You know what that means? People ain't playing nearly as long. Less time playing the game = less money spent on the game. They are only hurting themselves.
I think that doesn't make any sense a limited of miserable 10 coins a day. Imagine an item that costs 5000 V coins. You can catch 40 V coin a day with the 2 events. You need to spend like 4 months to buy that item. I think that the best itens like a SS ring will be as expensive as that.
Really, bravo Nexon. Ninja nerf your players and then look the other way to genuine bugs that need to be addressed. Your players losing end game items, Gollux completely not working, etc. Keep it up.
Also you still can't enter afterlands after getting out, and you still can't get the quest from the gold sack. The only thing that seems to be fixed is the missing frozen set, to me at least; don't know about the lag since I never had that problem.
Remove the box limit. NOW. There's no kind or a neutral tone to bring to this, because the removal of the limit was just the most ridiculous move you could have made! Why must you limit the players who are actually grinding and spending heaps of time on this event?
Honestly, I saw that ring as a chance to actually get my feet on solid grounds on the EU server after giving up on my other account in GMS.

I cannot agree more with this. Like, why even add the shining box event if you're going to put a limit that gives less coins than the Hi-V boxes themselves? There's no point of 1-5 coin roll either if there's a limit ROFL. Also rascal pieces are useless so there's no use for either event items now...

Yup... just at the moment when I was finally having fun playing MapleStory again. Now I don't feel like playing
I feel this update is affecting us all, I was hoping to burn a new character but nope, and the event ring? bainao, I'm not even in the mood for playing anymore...
Do we have to do this ALL the time?! Never (and I do mean NEVER) mention ANYTHING about coins coming out as infinite from event boxes! I worked hard yesterday to gather 900 V coins each for my 9 characters! Now I gotta wait til I'm able to get the trait potion AND the master cubes from the V coin shop due to the limited v coins per day! If you do see an infinite amount of coins appearing from boxes, drop whatever the heck your doing and get farming on the double! (Even bring your breakfast/lunch/dinner to your PC desk!) Every second you dilly dally means your at greater risk. And this is where time IS money!
I think nexon should set the stanta boxes to 30 coins limit and high five boxes to 30 making it 60 coins daily so as least you can scroll your Vengeful ring.
