More Than 2x Bosses Per Reset

I can see issues if Zak didn't have the limit but mainly for anyone selling helms, skillbooks, or gen20s. CWK may also be an issue of just crashing certain scroll or equip prices that drop from the bonus room. However for bosses like Krex, Jiao, and Rav where there are no drops worth much of anything, I think it would be a good idea to get rid of (or increase) the daily limit

 

Maby there just need to be more high level mobs to train on (With a party!)

 

The reality is that people who raise attackers aren't given any choices to level up other than buying leech/bossing (HT/CWKPQ/ZAK) and/or 7F which leads to more competition. I do agree that more grinding spots are needed which won't be enticing leechers but become more favorable towards attackers. While Maplelegends promotes community based activities such as party quests after level 155 the direction of community turns into how lucky can you be to get invited into daily HT to make $ and/or get experience. Currently the way I see it is that there are no middle grounds between FMers/leechers/boss runners and the people are heavily competing for the each slice of the pie.

There should be more grinding spots but they must be far away from the generally popular area to give people more choices based on their level of commitment. For example, HT Cave runners generally stay within the area and have to rely on others for buffs/pots (even tho sometimes they use mules) and sort of developed their own communities which distinguishes them from casual HT runners. We have to consider that sometimes the arbitrary restrictions on contents lead to community bonding as people coordinate with each other to overcome such restrictions.

 

Being able to find group for boss is hardly a matter of luck.

 

I would love some more places to grind, but no matter what it’ll be hard to balance these areas so that it doesn’t just become a leeching hot spot and isn’t completely OP while also being viable for ranged players. 7F and Shaolin in general, the current best end game grinding spot, is a great spot to train...unless you are a NL. I’m not too familiar with archers grinding at 7F but I’d assume that out of the two it would be most viable for MMs while BMs would struggle more. It’s pretty much assumed most ranged players will level up through leeching and bossing. ML seems to be trying to move away from leeching, so may as well make inconsequential bosses like Krex, Jiao, and Rav more viable to grind.

I’d say we should keep HT out of this thread. The OP also mentioned he doesn’t think the HT daily limit should increase either, and it would just be a mess if it was. Should focus on the bosses that are only/mainly done for XP instead

 

I honestly think if zak limit was increased, you'd start seeing zak arms leech. But other than that, I feel like constant runs of zak arms / JC would be an incredibly fast and fun way to level for ranged.

 

Would love to have unlimited JC...

 

Unlimited JC seems too powerful.... I wouldn't mind if it was like 2(or1) runs every x hrs though (similar to how area bosses respawn)

 

Just HT 4head

 

Is unlimited JC more EPM than raw grinding 7F? If it is, might definitely be too powerful.

 

I'm betting at least 95% of the people here didn't get past level 70 in the "nostalgic" maple of a decade past and would not have the chance to experience these bosses anyway. So no.

 

If people wanted nostalgia they wouldn't want the 2x exp and would call to remove vote cash to replace with real $$$ lol.

But I think Rav and Pap are good choices (don't know about toad since I've not done it) as they are the entry level of bosses.

 

I'd somewhat agree that JC may just be too good to be runnable an unlimited number of times, but I'd say the number of times we can do it per reset should still increase. Also had forgotten about Toad, that would be another one possible (although its drops are much more valuable, so maybe just an increase per reset as well?)

In terms of nostalgia, I wouldn't say it changes much. The big nostalgia in terms of boss resets for people would probably be running Zak twice a day which I think we all agree should stay twice a day. Plus I agree with xadra that a lot of people probably never got up to that level to make it nostalgia for them anyways
