Spending a week, one whole week in order to have a small star force session to see your equipment possibly gain zero stats or quite literally go boom in front of you does not promote player satisfaction in any way, shape or form. It's also not feasible for the average working player. Should a player be allowed to progress on the sole condition they dedicate all leisure time online to this game?
Players. Should. Not. Need. A. Second. Computer. In. Order. To. Progress.

We're talking late game for this though, there are plenty of small gains before you ever hit this point.
The top players yes, they absolutely go through that. But the majority of players I'd imagine can spend <1B to make some small gains here and there.

It's in their list of known issues, so we can just sit back and wait until it is fixed.

Thank you for this service. Nexon, please learn to do something like this for events.
Possibly an overhaul to the in-game event tab.

KMS starforce costs and removing Kishin while slowly patching arcane river (no where else really matters as much) to be more friendly towards the new kill everything as fast as possible direction of the game is the right call I think.
Maple's Design has clearly moved towards an endlessly kill mobs gameplay. The spawn rate doesn't really reflect that in a lot of areas.
The maps as a whole need to be redesigned to work better for this and for party play, which plenty of people seem to want, but can't enjoy.

Maplestory has a chance to really shake off the decade of legacy content and outdated mechanics given the recent high success in Korea.
If Nexon will actually increase the attention they pay to GMS and place developers who understand both KMS and GMS in charge of our content, they could make both regions widely successful.
The general response when I ask people about the game is they agree with the general direction the game is going, but that GMS keeps going backwards constantly because the developers don't understand the content they're balancing.

I think they're slowly giving KMS this new breath of fresh air, what with changes to elite mobs (champions), map reworks and new arcane river areas.
However GMS deserves this fresh air too, not just blindly nerfing/buffing Non-KMS content without looking into the actual meta behind it.

Easy solution that KMS can agree with most likely. Just give all badges potential.
