Today, January 22, is the last day for many events that have been with us all winter. Remember to do all these things before reset:

- Give your Determination to the Spark at Outpost, in return for Alliance Medal coins. (The determination collection bar might not be removed until the maintenance on Jan 23, but I would not risk it)
- Raise your Alliance rank
- Claim Relay boxes
- Create Zero or Beast Tamer
- Finish leveling your Tera Burning character and opening its gift boxes

The Alliance Supply Depot shop will still be available after the game update tomorrow, so no need to rush that.

Happy Mapling!

    According to the preview video, you're still able to raise your alliance rank, you'll just get about 200 coins a day instead of 500 iirc

    Wasn't there some box thing you get based on your rank beforehand?

    The preview video is a bit misleading. It meant that you could still raise your rank at the time the video was released.

    According to CM Ghiblee's response in this thread http://forums.maplestory.nexon.net/discussion/23390/what-is-the-last-day-to-rank-up-alliance, the last day to rank up is today.

    I surprisingly managed to get to Legend IV. The grind Determination was better than I anticipated.
    What was really hard was getting from level 190 to completing the Arcane Power quest in one day, so I could get the Eternal Flame title done in time. (Should have just bought a Storm Growth potion for that last level...)
    I thought the quest requirements being bypassed for Tera Burning to 5th job was a little bit more than not having to do the Temple of Time.
    There was a mad scramble for several hours before I went to bed. (My timezone and commitments meant that I had to be done about 12 hours before the cut off time.)
    I'm feeling a bit Tera burnt out now. :/

    I have been informed that, after tomorrow's maintenance, there will be a way to turn in leftover determination.

    I was 119 coins off of legend 4. I ended up with 1,881 when I capped before reset.

    I'm perfectly calm.

    Question: Why did they turn of the ability to claim coins by turning in determination instead of turning off the sources of gaining determination to prevent gaining anymore determination? I've missed out on 655+10% coins because of this and this isn't the first time it happened for a coin event. People should still be able to claim coins from their remaining determination instead of stare at their lost coins until the maintenance deletes that data permanently from the game. This is why I hate coin events because it's either claiming them that gets cut off too soon or not being able to spend them because the NPC gets deleted before maintenance rather than when Nexon puts the game offline.
    lol nevermind I'm retarded but still stand by my point:
    Nexon could have easily removed Alliance Skills by having the skills expire at x date and have the determination quests expire on x date as well and kept the fountain active.

    We'll be able to claim unclaimed coins from the fountain of determination by talking to the maple admin after maintenance. Hopefully if we have more events like this that they'll still allow coins to be claimed from the meter and simply cut off the sources to potentially rack up more coins until the game update maintenance.
