  • Bishop Attack Speed for Destiny Update

    Since GMS Bishops can hit 0 attack speed and KMS Bishops cannot, whether they have that extra -1 Attack Speed does not matter in KMS, but it does for GMS.

    It be nice if you gave GMS Bishops in the Destiny Update to keep their -1 Attack Speed on the new Level 140 Hyper Skill's Passive so that we Bishops can keep our current Inner Ability and still solo-cap our attack speed.
    (This skill currently gives -1 Attack Speed while in Bossing Mode.)

    Also, reminder to include passive 100% Stance for Beast Tamers in the Destiny Update as well for all of the animals! =)

  • Gollux Equips Quality of Life Change

    Gollux Equips all being the same colour gem makes it hard to see which is which at a glance. So I think their gem colour should match their aura colour.

    Cracked: Purple Gems to Orange Gems
    Solid: Remain as Purple Gems
    Reinforced: Purple Gem to Blue Gem
    Superior: Purple Gem to Green Gem

    This way it will be much easier to see what equipment is what at a quicker glance without needing to hover over the item to make sure it is the correct equipment.

  • Tell us the Popularity Rate to Special Drop?

    They told us initially that the 2x Special Drop Coupons are a low-popularity item, but then they review the PURCHASE RATE and tell us the PURCHASE RATE of the item...

    This is nice and all, but I still want to know the POPULARITY RATE of the item.
    How many people out of the total amount of players bought this item?

    I knew from the beginning they slipped the item in at the bottom of the post hoping no one would notice. The reason for the removal was always about the balance of the game and I am surprised the item was not removed years ago to be honest.

    Next time, when you do stuff like this Nexon, you got to come up with a solution that introduces something positive when taking something away that players like. Like you could introduce 30 minutes Wild Totems (in addition to the already 120 minutes Wild Totems) to the game with Small Wealth Acquisition Potions as something for players to be happy with (and gets more players coming on and playing as well which is also good for the game long-term).
    ~ It helps everyone be able to slowly grind each day of Maple in small 30-min chunks at a time and not upset the game-economy since it is more options to grind, but not giving more than what the game already gives. (And it makes Reboot players happy.)

  • Better Maple: Maple Tour + Akechi Shops

    Right now, the Maple Tour and Akechi Shops do not offer anything really worth any value. My ideas should allow for players a way to keep up constant and regular playtime which would result in a healthy game for the future with more active all year around and not just from the surge when a big update happens.

    __________________________________________________________________________

    Maple Tour Shop:

    New Item: Golden Totem
    Cost: 2 Maple Tour Coins (So you can have 1 per day if you wanted.)

    Golden Totem is a special kind of totem that when equipped allows you to summon a Golden Totem that increases the Spawn by +75% (175% Spawn) and Spawn Rate by +0% (100% Spawn Rate, aka the spawn rate does not change) for 180 seconds until you need to summon it again and increases the total Mesos you obtain by 20% (so it works like Wealth Acquisition Potion and stacks with it as well).

    Each equip of a Golden Totem will last for 30 minutes after you activate the coupon.

    Summoning an effect that changes the spawn and/or spawn rate will remove a currently summoned Golden Totem from play and you cannot summon the Golden Totem while a spawn and/or spawn rate enhancing effect is in play.

    (Increasing only the Spawn here will allow players to traverse to other, larger maps rather than rely on smaller maps that Wild Totem (and other totems) typically accel at and helps players explore more content in the game this way.)

    New Item: Small Wealth Acquisition Potion
    Cost: 2 Maple Tour Coins

    Increase your Item Drop Rate and Total Mesos Obtained by 20% for 30 minutes.

    (So you can either do a Golden Totem everyday or do a more efficient one every other day.)

    New Item: Wealth Acquisition Potion
    Cost: 8 Maple Tour Coins

    Increase your Item Drop Rate and Total Mesos Obtained by 20% for 120 minutes.

    (This is to give players the option to save up and just do a big gains Wild Totem 2-hours farming session.)

    __________________________________________________________________________

    Akechi Coin Shop:

    New Item: 90-Days Mini Akechi Mitsuhida Petite Pet
    Cost: 20 Akechi Coins

    This is a 90 days Vacuum Pet that cannot be taught pet skills, does not have any stats on him, and cannot be revived with any water of life, after the 90 days is up, he will die forever. So to renew the little guy, you got to buy a whole new one with another 20 Akechi Coins.

    (20 Coins here assures that upon doing Akechi every week over a 90 days period, you will be able to buy another 90 days vacuum pet to replace the previous one rewarding the player for actively playing the game every week.)

    New Item: Onyx Apple
    Cost: 1 Akechi Coins

    This will offer an additional way to get the glorious Onyx Apple outside of Amoria Party Quest, can do both for even more! More ways to get that juicy 100 weapon/magic attack buff for 10 minutes!

    (As a reminder, you get the Akechi coins at a similar rate to the boss drop cores of Lotus and Damien, so the costs are low since you do not get very many coins every week.)

    __________________________________________________________________________

    P.S. I am aware I do not have the actual, correct coin names, does not really matter.

  • Proper Implementation of Vacuum Pet for Reboot

    I do NOT want Vauum Pets in Reboot if they are only going to be paid to win. Implement a free version, even if it is gimped in some way, in order to include paid Vacuum Pets or never implement them. (To be honest it is free money for Nexon with Vacuum Pets, but if they are pay to win only then you have people quitting the game which will just hurt the game and business.)

    Implement the free version like you use the Akechi coins to buy it from the Akechi shop for 90 days, cannot be revived or be taught pet skills, but you can just buy a new Akechi Vacuum Pet when it dies. This way it keeps players constantly playing the game and not have Vacuum Pets feeling like a pay to win option when there is a free vacuum pet option in the game.

    Yes, it is higher level content and you need to earn the vacuum pet, but something as powerful as a vacuum pet should be earned in some fashion. Newer players can just use Blackheart / Toad pets until they are strong enough to struggle Akechi in either parties or they can get boss carried by someone.

    Implementing vacuum pets for Reboot (technically this will apply to non-Reboot as well) in such a way will be a lot better for the game in the long term.
