Bug type: Map / Monster (not sure which)

Brief bug summary: GMS has a lower spawn rate of normal monsters in Lion King's Castle, excluding the Rose Garden area, compared to other … (more)versions (KMS, JMS, CMS, TMS, and MapleSEA).

More details:
Back in the Override update in KMS (and other versions), Lion King's Castle was updated with the quest drop requirements reduced from 200 to 100 for certain quests, as well as increasing the spawn rate throughout the area (namely Crockies, Reindeer, Blood Reindeer, Bearwolves, Grey Vultures, and Castle Golems). When this update hit GMS, the quest changes went through, but we never received the spawn rate increase.

Here are a couple images as reference.
Castle Ramparts 4 (GMS):


Castle Ramparts 4 (KMS):


Steps to reproduce:
1. Head to any map with monsters in Lion King's Castle before the Rose Garden area.
2. Compare the spawn rates with any other MapleStory server aside from GMS. Note that GMS's spawn rate is incredibly lacking in comparison.

Character name: GreenGales

Character level: 254 (the area is 115+, however)

Character job: Wind Archer (applies to any class, however)

World name: Bera (applies to any world, however)

Date and time of the incident: May 26, 2020 at 5:00 PM EST (but this issue has existed since the Override update) (less)

Bug type: Map

Brief bug summary: Teleporting in and out of Kritias will not work in GMS, but it works in every other version (KMS, JMS, CMS, TMS, and MapleSEA).

More … (more)details:
When using a Hyper Teleport Rock to teleport to Kritias (except the Town Hall, which will work fine), you will be given a message stating "Unable to approach due to the force of the ground). If trying to teleport around while currently in Kritias, it will not allow you to do so either, whether you use a Hyper Teleport Rock or the Maple Guide. The only form of teleportation that works is skill based (for example, Cygnus Knight's Imperial Recall skill.) Again, the reason why this is a bug is because GMS is the only version that has this issue.

I have recorded a video for reference:


Steps to reproduce:
Outside of Kritias
1. When outside of Kritias, use a Hyper Teleport Rock and attempt to teleport to a map in Kritias (except Town Hall). Note that you will get a popup message as mentioned above.

Inside Kritias
1. Head to any map within Kritias, except the Town Hall.
2. Use a Hyper Teleport Rock and attempt to teleport out of Kritias; you will receive the popup message.
3. Use the Maple Guide and attempt to teleport out of Kritias, with the same result.

Character name: irrelevant

Character level: 170+

Character job: irrelevant

World name: Bera (applies to any world though)

argument is wrong. It's not even bis.

Tell that to Nexon Korea, who created it as a drop from the Black Mage in the first place. You would think that they would make a badge dropped by the strongest boss in the game better than it currently is. (less)

Pottable badges were restricted due to orders from KMS not wanting us to have better badges than the KMS meta. Why go for the Black Mage badge when we have Ghost Ship Exorcist, and all … (more)that. I agree that it was a poorly thought out decision, but honestly the only way I see them returning is if KMS makes them the new meta. (less)

Not a bug. Go to the Land of Innocence and destroy the kids' toy fort to cause a thunder storm, then go back to that map.
