not really. the best you can really do is bind interact with npc to a button but it doesn't change inventory management/point allocation.

servers are back down for unscheduled maintenance and i'll pretty much guarantee you it's because nexon doesn't know what overflow is

they've changed the ui over time but the controls are what they are cause this game is, at this point, at least 14 years old. i'm not going to defend it but that's why it's that way.

teleports have a fixed distance (they used to say the distance but it was so ridiculously vague with "teleport a distance of 100" that who cares) which is why sometimes you can't teleport up through a platform. they can also dislike height changes if you're teleporting horizontally.

this is assuming kanna's teleport works like regular rear end teleport from mages, if it doesn't then who knows. maple story is a very mysterious game.

this game is so good

despite everything it's still the nexon i know and love

but yes i guarantee that's what the maintenance right now is for

So is the control issue a result of 14 year old spaghetti code then?

not really spaghetti code per se, just that's how it was designed way back when and they've never shown any inclination to change it

do you wanna go beat up normal ht this afternoon

oh also the ninja castle is open and exists, i think they only closed it in kms though, because even on reboot the mobs have no hp and don't exclusively drop your class's stuff

worth noting as well is the hot week of the 21st where if you get the box on the same character every day, you will get not one but two 100% epic potential scrolls (and really, out of the rewards, why pick anything else?)

also for leveling a kinesis to 90 you will get eighteen master craftsman cubes

quote:

Monday, December 21 - Special Medal of Honor (gives 10,000 Honor EXP) and Reboot Coins (x10)
Tuesday, December 22 - Epic Potential Scroll 100% (7-day duration) and Reboot Coins (x10)
Wednesday, December 23 - 1 Hour 2x EXP Coupon (x3) (7-day duration) and Reboot Coins (x10)
Thursday, December 24 - Equip Tab 4 Slot Coupon and Reboot Coins (x10)
Friday, December 25 - 2,000 Maple Reward Points and Reboot Coins (x10)
Saturday, December 26 - Use Tab 4 Slot Coupon and Reboot Coins (x30)
Sunday, December 27 - Reboot Coins (x20). And if you received a Gift Box every day this week (with characters in the same world, not world alliance), then you can also select one additional reward from the items given Monday through Saturday

you just have to log in on the days for the hot week thankfully and not adhere to a typical hot time schedule

Maybe level up some link skill characters to buff up your main. Demon Avenger gives you % Damage, Kanna gives you % damage, Mercedes gives you % bonus xp etc.

link skills are bugged (again) so every time you quit the client (or it crashes) you have to log onto each of the link skill mules to re-activate it on the character you're linking. it's ridiculously tedious and i don't typically bother anymore.

You can get versions 1-4 from Emperor Toad in Ninja Castle, but the quests are a pain and the boss is level 180.

also every time you want to fight him you have to do an obnoxious jq, and he's on a two-hour (i think) respawn per channel, so you can do the obnoxious jq only to find out he's dead on that channel and have to cc and try again.

When are we going to fight bosses and other party stuff? The guild doesn't seem to be very active.

there's not really a whole lot to do that both requires a party that we could put together + is actually worth doing, and partying for bosses is gets an extra layer of clunky because pets will still hoover up whatevers on the ground and you can't divvy up the loot on reboot

it's still really awkward to loot esp. if a boss dies near a corner cause there's a pile of crap on the ground and you have to hope people aren't grabbing what they can't use cause welp now it's untradable

they shoulda made all boss loot instanced on reboot but welp
