  • KANNA BUFF?

    Frenzy Totem has been implemented into the game, but it doesn't affect how relevant Kanna is to the game. Only an extreme minority of people even possess those totems. To list:
    - Kanna has good damage
    - Multiple passive buffs to help with survivability (%DmgReduction and StatusResist, Lifesteal from killing mobs)
    - Nice link skill (one of the better ones)
    - Lots of AOE
    - Insane party buffs (% Boss, %DmgReduction)
    - (Saves money on potions)
    - Kishin and more.

    It's probably one of the more "overloaded" classes that do not require any buffs, nor nerfs.

    Also, stop spamming and bumping your own post please.

  • Poor maple anniversary

    You've already made a thread about this in the suggestions thread. What's the point of making another one here in the general section? Maple leaves were annoying and all people did after buying out the shop (or not participating in the event at all) was sell them for exorbitant prices.

    Grinding and/or trading is a fundamental part of this game, I don't understand how playing the game while simultaneously participating in an event by farming drops is annoying. Buying items is a fundamental option in nonreboot servers, if you don't like the prices you were entirely capable of farming them yourself. I personally enjoy the mini games, but I cant 'grind' for long periods of time playing them because I simply don't enjoy them as much as training or bossing, and I don't think that's unreasonable considering I as a fan of maple (as i'm sure many agree) don't play maple for the mini games (despite the fact that i generally enjoy them to an extent).

    and LOL to the rationale of "But the hackers exploited the maple leaves so getting rid of it made sense". By this logic, lets just get rid of everything in this game, because hackers exploit leveling, farming and nx cash too.

    In terms of being able to buy out the store(atleast the enhancement tab) - I don't see how this is a bad thing if you're willing to put the time into grinding and farming. I've honestly played so much reverse recently I was too burned out to take advantage of the doubled 400 coin limit today.

    Never did I say that grinding was not a part of the game. To be fair, I should have clarified that pet loot lag still hadn't been patched then and lagged the ever-living hell out of me. It may be fixed now but I don't see what the problem is in doing something different from other anniversaries. You can still hunt and grind event currency. After picking up the three skills you can get even more stardust by hunting. You're still doing the same thing but you don't have to loot every single leaf. I'd argue that's an advantage to every player who doesn't have a pet.

    I made no remark about hacking/botting so I'm gonna assume you were replying to someone else.

    Also did not say that buying out the shop was bad. Merely that there was no POINT to the leaves after buying out the shop. Selling is a part of the game, yes, but it doesn't add any significance to the event in general after the shop is empty.

    My point is, having an event without the leaf drop is only an issue with some because of nostalgia, as with many other things that have been removed from the game.
    Hunting with boosted EXP? - Subzero
    Hunting and grinding for fast stardust (including booster skills for stardust drop)? - Normal hunting grounds within your level range

    Just because one thing affects you, doesn't mean it affects the remainder of the community. Leaves were highly economical, and they allowed for an alternative methods to get rewards. Which in turn, motivates people (especially newer and less funded) to farm out the leaves and sell them. With an already dying economy, maplestory has made it harder to buy rewards by forcing them to grind/play minigames that are repetitive. You know, not everyone needs those coins? Lower funded people lack interest in most items in the shop since they dont really have an impact. When they could still sell leaves, they could still benefit both people of a trade without any going to waste.

    You say after you buy out the shop, leaves become useless. Um? If you're capable of buying out the shop, you'd be capable of doing it on multiple characters. Possible with leaves, but no one is going to grind multiple characters just for the sake of obtaining coins. They're making the real worlds of maplestory become more and more like reboot with lack of trade and economy.

    This anniversary is poorly done. Nexon is consistently removing the good aspects of the game one by one and ultimately deterring players from the already dying game lmao. (eg.?
