Are there plans to nerf GS2 or buff other training spots?

    I know GS2 was in v62 but to me it's just not nostalgic. I think it eliminates a lot of training spots since the xp and spawn rate is pretty good there. When I think of oldschool GMS I think of people training at coolie zombies, soul teddys, death teddys, etc. I don't think of people training at GS2 for 20 levels. Maybe I'm alone on this but I think that it should be nerfed, or other mobs should be buffed. I sort of feel the same way about wolf spiders, but I feel as though there are viable alternatives to that.

    I feel the same way about a bunch of the "newer" training spots.

    But they were in version 0.62, so don't think they would remove them / nerf them.

    Well then maybe instead of nerfing them they could at least buff other training spots to make them just as good? I honestly don't know anyone who genuinely enjoys training at GS2. I suppose the location is more convenient than going to Path of Time or the Dead Mines but still..

    I'm not even quite sure why other classes that aren't I/L mage or Cleric train there. There's for sure better alternatives in their cases. Though there is a good point in this, alot of maps have slightly higher to drastically higher spawns than they did normally on GMS at this time. I mentioned to Kimmy about it awhile back, though I doubt all of the maps will be fixed due to the amount of maps that are like that and the process to nerf the maps back to normal is insanely time consuming. Maybe only the ones most needed will be done... *stares at The Tree That Grew II*. F3

    As for buffing maps that process is hell of a lot easier lol, which some maps do need if they hadn't already done so (Ex. FoG, MP3, most of the Deep Ludi maps, etc.).

    I feel the same about these new maps, the worst of them being BF and HH (especially in a low populated server). But I don't think Kim wants to tweak mob exp? It's too bad Neckson decided to make them OP.

    I still train at GS2 as a sin which is a horrible experience with single target attacks and the map design, but it's good money I believe.

    Its better if you saw the maps before making this topic because we have altered spawns already on some maps, exactly as how you describe it.

    Yeah I agree I'd love a BF and HH-less server but I think that's unrealistic and would be opposed by a lot of people.

    Which maps were buffed/nerfed if I may ask?

    Pretty much every "non popular" map, too many to list. There's few minor alters I still would like to do from some of those, but its too minor to mention. Anywho, observe the maps and feel free mention to me if any is wrong to you (not enough/too many)

    The maps I'd like to see buffed (if they haven't already) are the ones I've mentioned in the post. Coolie zombies, the path of time maps, and maybe windraiders? I haven't been to the maps yet because I'm too low level so I'm not sure if they've already been altered or not.

    Voodoos are generally considered a much better option for sins as there are only 6 spawn at a time and they drop heartstoppers, which can speed up training or bring in meso.

    I usually do GS from 50-60 then voodoos from 60-70. GS drops dark crystal ores needed for 3rd job too.

    Every job class has their own "more effective training" spots. I don't see any reason to change that

    The spawn at windraiders has been increased a lot. I've been training there on my hermit and it's really good xp.

    Moved to Accepted. Majority of maps are buffed slightly.
