    Lionheart Castle was an interactive training location that allowed players to grind while preserving the social aspects of the game. Parties of up to 6 players of any class would gather around to farm mobs with high HP mobs that were impractical to solo. There were also many safe spots that encouraged socializing.

    Current Issues:
    • There are currently only two efficient end game grinding spots in ML, Skelegons and Shaolin Temple.
    • End game maps do not foster any sort of party play. Skeles are exclusively used for leeching and Shaolin Temple maps such as 1-2, 3-4, and 5-6 are heavily favored towards mages which again encourages leeching. 7F while viable for melee classes can only support two players at once and is solo'd by most high level players. (Who likes to chat while getting slapped by fish anyways?)
    • Ranged classes such as BM and NLs have no reasonable grinding areas and resort to bossing for exp.
    Plausibility:
    ML is based off of a 2008 version of MapleStory with certain features going up to 2010 versions such as Ellin Forest, ToT, Cwkpq, Neo Tokyo, Ulu/Krex, etc. LHC was released in 2011 and would be the latest version of GMS ML has ever taken an idea from(?).

    One of the core values of ML is nostalgia and I'm sure many of us want to preserve this. It would be great if changes could be made to maps such as ToT to touch upon some of the issues I mentioned. Then again ToT party training would never be able to support up to 6 players and provide the same high HP mobs LHC did.
