    HP washing. Everyone hates it, but you gotta do it. It’s like taxes.

    But just cus you don’t like doing your taxes... do you get rid of taxes entirely? Nah. You try to find a way that won’t take you 3 years to do it :p Everyone has a different opinion on how the HP washing “cancer” should be “fixed” or completely gotten rid of. Here are my realistic (and fairly easy to implement) suggestions:

    1. HP FROM ACCESSORIES

    • Add +200 HP to all wedding rings
    • Custom event rings with 300-500 HP (a buffed ellin quest line ring)
    Explanation: Rings are the empty slot in our equipments. There’s no positive stat that comes from rings, so if we add on HP to them, we’d be bringing in some use to them besides being an aesthetic thing.

    With the weddings now changed, making wedding rings important in our end-game gear would make people want to get married for reasons other than apples.

    500-700 HP is worth around 3 weeks of voting. Helps reduce the burden of HP washing, but doesn’t get rid of it. Still keeps washing necessary for end game content.

    2. PET EQUP FOR HP
    • HP scrolls for pet equip
    • 30% pet equip for HP = + 60 HP // 60% scroll = + 30 HP
    • Can be added to PQ bonuses
    • Droppable from medium lvl mobs (eg. Windraiders) OR new mobs/regions yet to launch
    Explanation: Everything else about Maple revolves around scrolling. Shift a portion of HP washing onto scrolling. Keeps it NX based, cus pet equips are NX, but let’s it be RNG/fun. Rather than waiting for vote cash endlessly.

    (Eg) 2x30% and 3x60% = +210 HP (around a week of voting)

    3. BUFF SCROLLS FOR HP
    • Double HP value of scrolls for HP (glove, shield, earring, etc etc)
    Explanation: Makes it a viable choice to replace key gear with HP equip if they're short on HP. Switch out a 4 dex branch nose for 400 HP or so.

    Would also change HP scrolls from a niche market for buyer gear/bishops that boss. Create an actual sought after scroll/market. More market = healthier for the game. More opportunities to earn meso at lower lvls (farm for hp scrolls) and more opportunities at merching.

    4. INCREASE HP GAIN PER LVL +10 HP

    A well known solution to the HP washing issue, and guaranteed to reduce the burden of washing. Done by some other private servers with lots of success. This buffed natural HP gain would get you an extra 1,500 HP by lvl 150. Getting rid of nearly 2 months of voting.

    BUT it would be a big change to the server. Not 100% recommended, as there could be backlash from the older player base and not to mention it messes up the math/washing of those currently washing.

    Not a suggestion I would want implemented, but a solid solution that I thought should be covered when talking about how to improve the HP washing process.

    Conclusion

    These would be my suggestions to how to reduce the burden of HP washing, and make the process more fun / enjoyable (but still keeping it very Maple-esque).

    All numbers in the suggestions above are fully adjustable (like the +10 HP gain or the buff to HP scrolls).
