Yeah I'm only saying TS, cause that's the only one that I've ever actually used lol. And it's not that expensive, like here it's only $9 a month for a limit of 30 users at a time, which is chump change that I wouldn't mind paying. Never used raidcall though, I'll get on later. Hopefully some of you guys are too Well raidcall is free sooo i'd rather go with that than have someone pay for a server that some may or may not use Besides it should be fairly simple just install raidcall search the ID i posted and ta-da join the group

Was the way leech works changed with this recent restart? Don't really mind it but would be nice to give a heads up.....

Well I used to be able to leech my cousin by getting BF down really low, like below 5% then having him hit in once. We would do that to all four channels and then we would get HS and I would finish off all four with him on the map. We just tried the same thing and he didn't get the amount of exp he should have. Normally like 6m for him and 12m for me, now just 30-35k for him and 11m for me.

I spoke to Grim about this yesterday. The reason he didn't get exp is because he joined your party AFTER you had already gotten the BF's to 5ish %. I've come to realize that since that sudden "30% rule" ( click here) there are certain things you have to do to be able to fully leech the monster. Option #1Be in the map where the boss is being killed for a minimum of 50% of the damage. Option #2Be in the party that is killing the boss (regardless of you being in the map or not), then hit the boss once/a couple of times to receive full leech. The reason Grim didn't get the full exp, even though he in fact hit the BFs that were being killed, is because he was added to the party AFTER you had already damaged the BF's. I'm pretty sure everybody would like for this to be changed so that party members can get leech without having to do either of the things stated above.

Neither Kalyb or even Nina have any idea on how to change something like that, or also even know what exactly happened to cause that whole 30% rule thing. It certainly wasn't done intentionally.

What are the things that you like about on here? NobleStory's community is really great. Its players are always fun to talk with and are always happy to help & guide. They won't hesitate if you ask them for a favour.
The events are really good. Especially scavenger hunt. I think it brings the community closer as it attracts people to the location of the event.
The fact that NX items last forever is ingenious.
What are the things that you don't like about on here? I think resetting your AP/SP should be made easier, perhaps by making the reset items a bit cheaper. Maybe adding an option to reset your AP once, and never again? That would at least give players like me a second chance of correcting ones AP/SP.
Just a personal opinion, but I don't like the 4th jobs. Maybe because they aren't part of my MapleStory nostalgia. I just think they're too OP and unplanned.
I dislike pirates. Again, personal opinion.
What would you like to see added on here if anything? The missing world maps. While there are many crappy things about the new MapleStory, at least the maps are good. Maybe it's too difficult to fix, but I think it would be a great addition. I hate pressing W just to find a pop-up screaming at me.
Perhaps more sites to vote on so that you can get more NX. 3,000 every 12 hours is not very much.

I like white scrolls being earnable, and especially the current rate at which they can be earned. I like how you can get items for forging things like crystal illibi, etc through some system (instead of being unavailible due to not having codes from maplestory trading cards...+not being official server) however the current system seems a little imbalanced. 10k points for just the forging manuals to any of the john barricade items, yet 20k for timeless/lvl 110 equips. And the manuals are generally the easier/faster part, due to the crystal requirements + others.I feel they should all be in the 2500 range too. Also, the issue with forging these items is that ore of the month creates an issue between value of an item based solely on if this month is screwed. For example, right now i really want to store up luk crystals and buy them, because i want to make crystal illibus. But now their value is inflated due to ore of the month. So some equips become vastly more costly if you want to try to buy some of the requirements during unlucky months. NX rates are incredibly low from voting. 3k isn' even an ap reset, which means that if i want to train and level i quickly exceed my nx by loads and loads because im adding much more mana past my base than im earning over the levels. Which disincentives leveling, and incentivies sitting there and doing nothing and just voting. I feel like this is backwards, and doesn't even adress other nx concerns like double xp coupons, face and hair changes, nx equips and multiple outfits, teleport rocks and saftey charms, AND EVEN IF YOU HAVE ALL OF THAT, there's still gachapon tickets. Noone will EVER have no use for NX. even if you gave out 100k nx per vote, people would still mostly vote every day( untill gachapons became so under inflated that you could find them everywhere for free) Of course im not talking about rates of nx that would cause massive deflation of prices for gach equips, im talking about being able to build up a base past what hp washing demands is the mimimum you need. (so you don't dig yourself into a hole by leveling) I think double the current rate is probably the fairest level you can get to. Or maybe 1/3 of a 2x coupon, so like 5000. But not even enough to afford 1 reset is too little. I love the monthly extra exchange things, like crayons etc. I wish they were a little more useful to everyone every month (like last months rings+onyx apple = everyone can get use of them because onyx apples are good for everyone, and rings help newer players get things they need that older players don't need) Like this month though, no one really needs any of the pops (the best one is mostly out done by a maple leaf accessory) and using 20 crayons for a maple weapon isn't really worth it unless you somehow don't have the time to just grind an hour on a mob that drops em (where as crayons usually take an hour minimum to get) Not that im trying to complain or w/e, just little things that don't really matter that much, but could be done a little better I like the gms and the events, the only thing i don't like about the events is that their times can fluctuate and aren't really set in stone-ish. I'd like if there was an a window that we could get that it would for sure(given no emergencies/other issues happen) happen in. Like, if the gms are all good, and there's no other issues, it would happen : 6-10 pm server time. (not that im saying THAT should be the time, but just an example) I could honestly do this for hours, so ima wrap it up. Feel free to tell me if this is what you wanted adam, or if this was way too nitt picky or something

I feel like you do have some good points Elijah, but the one thing I'd bear in mind is that back on GMS, the majority of these things were unobtainable to most people without paying real-world money (in the case of iTCG and Gachapon tickets for example), or by being one of the highest levels in the server (in the case of Timeless equipment).
Also, "difficult to obtain" is all relative: compared to Pre-BB GMS, most of these items are insanely easy to obtain, but perhaps compared to some other Private Servers, they are very difficult to obtain. But yeah, compared to GMS, free nx alone is mouth-watering! I guess it depends on perspective is what I'm trying to say.
I do agree about the event timing though. I even suggested in the past that the GMs create a more concrete schedule for events, which they did for a weekend or two, after which they sort of regressed back to the old ways of spontaneous events. If I were a GM (which I'm not, and am likely not qualified to be, but I'm simply speaking personally here) then I would make more of an effort to create a more concrete schedule, but from what I understand, the only two GMs who are in a position to host events are rather busy in real life, so they're at least somewhat justified in not being able to be perfectly consistent. Considering that the GMs are often juggling many priorities at once, I find that they do an excellent job with the server.

True, but the common reason i see for not raising the nx is because it is necessary to keep people voting, yet who in their right mind wouldn't keep voting for more gachapon tickets?
Gachapon tickets = raccoon masks + whitescrolls + a myriad of impossible to get scrolls + rare items likes PACs.
IE: as long as the demand for these things remains, nx and gach will always be relevant......

Here's my opinion on that:
Raising NX gained via voting would alter the economy. Not immediately, but it would have consequences.
Second, part of the nostalgia of this server is the fact that it is not easy to do all your ventures. Raising NX would not only alter the economy of the server...it would also make it exponentially easier to become godly/obtain godly items. It would also severely lessen the consequences of each action you take in the game.

"All Gachapon-Only items from Cody stay for the time being since they are more difficult to obtain. I've also decided to keep the Gold Emerald Earrings and Yellow Snowshoes (despite them dropping from Anego/Boss) due to the fact that they are difficult kills. They generally stay for the same reason that White Scrolls and Chaos Scrolls remain." Also I had gach'd the remaining NX I had at the time before going into "coffin mode" and had gotten a white scroll from the NLC gach. After like 100 tickets lol, GG.
