http://maplestory.nexon.net/micro-site/rezero
Am so hyped, i'm a little disappointed that they skipped Log Horizon but this is better than nothing
although i am still confused, on the last part "Find Exclusive Items in Re:ZERO Random Box"
it says buy from cash shop to receive the following: androids, titles, and chairs!" and after it says the medals as well, does this mean the medal is in a P2W RNG bs??
pls say it aint so ._.
Edit: well this is disappointing..
http://uni-wz.com/blog-entry-2895.html
the boxes will cost 190 NX, 1.9k NX for 11. they have the medals inside..
~EDIT~
I am very disappointed in Nexon with the upcoming event tomorrow.

4k nx for boxes, really? not only that but you're putting in a bunch of freaking junk related to philo books..
and the hair styles are not even in coupon form??

right? why does it have to be inside cash shop? So does that mean if it comes to reboot and its in cash shop, we won't get it? because its considered PAY to win? Unless we can buy it for mesos. But for real why cash shop? Make a long story line or something. Not sure how the beater medal was obtained but something like that?..
From what i've heard, beater was something like person with most dungeon cleared in the server
Beater was actually obtained with a Goal of Most Dungeons complete.
whoever completes the most Dungeon (basically PQ) will get the medal. Limited to 15 per world.
(also hoping for konosuba next)
well i guess this time, its an event of "whoever spends the most money" rofl
I restarted maple just because of reboot worlds..
That was what the Beater medal was, too.
To get more dungeon clears you had to buy more entry keys. Whoever buys the most keys, wins.
Also: Cash Shop prices are different between services. Just because Uni's blog says the price in JMS was 190NX doesn't mean it will be the same here.
yea but the black swordsmen medal was not "most runs" it was a set amount of runs.
The beater medal, however, was limited to those who did it the most.
"It's a rich man's world"
black swordsmen required clearing RNG bosses a certain number of times, I believe it was clearing each of the bosses 5 times each but due to RNG I think one of the bosses had a low get chance or something.
so still not even a "set amount" of runs
also some bosses were harder to clear than others due to certain attacks..
so all in all, if you managed to get it without needing to get extra passes/coins then you were lucky.
interesting how people remember it differently/ more positively cause I remember during the event some people complained about the requirements for the medal not being able to get/ easy to get for non-nx buyers due to the rng factor.
I was basing my comment on this thread. More specifically:
A lot of other people on Basil say they've gotten it within 30 runs, too lol. Someone speculated that the boss you got was based on how much time was left (boss changing every minute).
uh... how do you know it's a healing bonus and not just a typo on the page (something they have done before)
was it in a data extraction or are you going purely off of what was posted on the info page?
also japanese not chinese mang.
i think you should calm down until the update actually happens and notes posted (which will hopefully be correct) or data extractions done to confirm the real stats of the medals; the likelyhood that they changed the medals just to remove the 10%hp and MP is very low, considering that in past events not only were things not changed, but things that should have been updated for players (the 6 star AEE from the AoT event) didnt get changed until big complaints, and also removing the 10% HP would just be very.. pointless honestly.
I think you can chalk this up to normal Nexon messing up on posting accurate info.
Worse than the RNG factor was the fact that disconnection rate was very high. The dungeon area was a "private channel" - so you were force-cc'ed when you went there. And whenever you change channel you have a high risk of disconnecting within two minutes. So many people lost runs that way.
So yes, the Black Swordsman medal was obtainable without paying money, but you had to be diligent (to do it every day), careful (to not go into the dungeon immediately after reaching the "lobby"), lucky (to get the right bosses), and skilled (to be able to defeat all the bosses with their tricky mechanics).
It's one of those events that would have benefitted from a "diligence backstop" - if you entered the dungeon every single day, you should have been given the medal, or one nearly as good, regardless of how many of each boss you defeated.
IDK why it's gamble only, the other two crossovers we got, we did have a choice of either gambling, or buying them for more money straight out. It's stupid that this is an exception.
The hairs aren't much better, because I'm not naive or stupid enough to believe for a minute it'll be like the SAO one and will offer a choice. And I bet the hairs will be $5 a piece, like the Heroes one.
All of this seriously disappoints me, because I love Re:Zero. I was looking forward to this, only to find out it's gambling AGAIN. I get burned way too many times with gamble boxes to bother. And I can't even buy the items I want because Scania never sells anything, and if they do, everything is $1 billion mesos minimum. >_<;. This will be a boring, useless patch to me with a nice log in screen.
Hopefully the update highlights are incomplete, and there will be direct-purchase options (or even free by doing the quests?) to get at least some of these items.
-would place video here of a Re:Zero meme if i get permission from a mod/admin to post it despite the title and video itself displaying the F word-
