MapleStory Jubilation (v.97) Update Maintenance - 04...

"Ideal" population is a matter of personal taste.
You like the way things are in Bellocan, Windia, and Scania? Good for you.
I've been playing Kradia for nearly three years now, and I like it the way it is. It's empty in the mornings? Great. I like it empty. And so do many other Kradians I know. If we didn't like it that way we wouldn't have joined this "empty" world to begin with, and we wouldn't have stayed here this long.
Trying to make all the worlds be like Windia to fit some kind of "ideal" is wrong. There should be big worlds and little worlds, to suit different people's playstyles.
And server transfer should probably be made much much easier.

With the world being empty and not being able to form any sort of party what playstyle is there? sit and stare at your nx while doing nothing? You can't sell anything because it's so dead, which is why the fm is piss poor. Bosses don't even give good exp anymore so you can't say that it's good being empty since you can boss (bf, anego, rgs) for the exp. Honestly kradia was a bomb(good) ass server for leveling before they nerfed the boss exp's but now? Not the only option for it to survive is for it to become LIKE those larger servers. Like someone stated before, if YOU like the playstyle of being able to do nothing then why don't YOU get yourself a transfer and go to a dead server, there are plenty of other dead ones.

Since when are parties required to play?
Lower levels train "cc plz" alone.
Only place you need a party is LHC (and that dies at Jump), and for all that Kradia is "empty" I have not had a problem filling my party at any time of day. I suppose having an alliance full of Australians and Europeans in addition to Americans doesn't hurt.
You say that Kradia needs help as much as Yellonde... well, I don't know Yellonde, so I'm just taking Satellite's word for it being so empty he can't fill up a guild. Kradia is nowhere near that empty. We have plenty of people complaining that they need to expand their Buddy List beyond the 100 person limit, there are just too many interesting people they want to add.
Seriously, you complain Kradia is dead because it's not Windia. Well, some people like New York City, some people like Smalltown. You don't like Kradia? Don't play in Kradia. I don't like Windia and I don't play there. You're trying to tell me I am "wrong" to be happy in my peaceful little world?

Don't try to force all worlds into your image of ideal. Don't tell people what "playstyle" is acceptable or not, we all have a right to enjoy the game the way we want (as long as we don't hurt anyone).

Lower levels.. the levels that are gone before you even notice they were there... You need parties for bosses. Just because you havent had a problem filling your party doesn't mean the rest of the world hasn't. You are not the only person on this server nor are you more important than anyone else, helping the server > you. Actually kradia is dead empty it's time you woke up and took a look around. It's next to a ghost town. Lol buddy list? seriously? even in a brand new server someone can obtain 100 buddies... Enough with the crappy arguments. You're complaining about nothing.. This server alliance will not even make yellonde and kradia the size of bello, windia, or scania. Not even CLOSE to as big as those. The funny part about this is, Yellonde and Kradia can actually survive on 13 channels with both servers merged lmfao... Like I said before you telling me not to play kradia is the same as me telling you not to play and go to a smaller server except in the end you'll be the one having to move because the majority will always take precedence. I'm not telling you you're "wrong" to be happy with a dead world I was trying to understand what there is to cling onto with a dead world. I never said what playstyle is acceptable or not either. But what I am telling you is, if you like dead run down servers you're the one who's going to have to continue moving not me.

Can't sell anything? Look around, we sell whatever we need to sell. If it takes a while, fine. I don't spend gobs of my money unless I know I will make it back.

What are you smoking? Anego, pap, samurai, pianus, and crow all give good exp and can be found close to one another. Just go into WT from ludi and you have quick access to all 5. I trained mainly on those bosses and got >10% a kill in a time far faster than if I was fighting Red Turtles or at LHC now.

You act like all bosses require a party. If we want to zak, we party one guildy and have them add our mules and whoever wants to join and we go kill it alone or with looters or with helpers. The only problematic bosses are scar/targa considering they require 6 people on the map rather than 1 or 2 with everyone else going about their business. The guilds that czak/ht for us? They don't have a problem with parties because if they're smart, they have a schedule. If we want to do a major boss that is a bit hard to solo, we do a schedule and find anyone we know who can help. It doesn't take long and we don't mind it. If you don't like that idea, just get the hell out. Your problem may be solved then.

Our server(s) have enough complaining going on when it comes to KS'ing between 40-110 because everyone uses mainstream maps such as Scarecrows, Jesters, and MP3. At any given time, certain guild can control those maps and what if it's like that in Yellonde too? Do not want.

rofl jokes? what level are you srsly? anego is 1.4m that's good exp? bf has turned to utter rubbish, pianus was never great exp, crow wasn't amazing either. I think you're the one smoking here sir. 10% a kill lmao that in itself should prove you're not experienced with these bosses. Zak? Zak has forever been a play tool, bosses that actually drop things people need/want.. Bosses that are actually worthy of being called bosses.. You know like HT? PB? CZ? Lol @ making a schedule, see that's the very point of this, you shouldn't need a schedule. What the server merge is trying to do is be able to accomidate anyone at anytime. I shouldn't have to say hey guys tomorrow at 5pm lets go scar, I should be able to form a party right on the spot and go do whatever the hell it is I please. You too can just leave if you have such a big issue with the merge, I for one promote server growth if you want a dead server experience keep playing the new servers as nexon releases them.

Go kill one in your 13x. Great exp right there assuming you can get a few. I found it a good day only if I got about 5 bosses. Otherwise it wasn't so good. I never once mentioned BF as an exp source. It only turns into one if you need to kill a bunch for a toe for a dep star. Zhelms are always in demand. I could sell my 3-liners for about 60-70mil each (haven't kept up with the price as I don't care to buy NX for karma'ing, but that's what it was/is). If you're smart, you don't go with randoms. Randoms are, well, random. You don't know their tendencies or what they can do/plan to do. I have done zak with randoms before and guess what? It didn't go well. They looted out of turn and looted whatever they damn-well pleased. It would be far more painful on your "wallet" to have a random loot MW30, heaven forbid it should drop, from HT and not give a hint of splits from the profit made from it. I go with people I know and that's it. As does almost everyone else I know. We may have people "pass it on" when we need more people for a boss/pq, but it doesn't go badly because we have a person we trust vouching for them. Only very rarely does that go wrong (see: People waiting for others to break cwkpq boxes and looting what the other person got from the box).

I'm pretty sure if someone just joined Kradia/Yellonde and didn't like the population, they would have discovered that before they would have spent too much time on that character to just restart somewhere such as Windia. Kradia maintains its population because we all like it. If we didn't, well, we'd transfer out or just not and make a character somewhere else, don't you think? None of us here is dumb, we know what we want and Kradia/Yellonde deliver. If it doesn't deliver for you, there's the soultion that's been stated many times by me and others. Transfer.

The only issue is anego, bf, rgs, crow were all leveling tools for the 15x-200 players before BB came into effect. Sweet it gives you nice exp at 13x but what the hell doesn't? You didn't mention it I mentioned it because it was a boss and it falls under my entire point about boss exp turning to utter pomegranate. Zhelms in demand? what? with nx going from 1:15-25 who karma's zhelms these days? Honestly check free market and see how many regular zakum helmet you will find. Zhelm isn't even worth scissoring buddy. Lol so if i go on a boss run with some people I don't know i'm dumb now hahah man this is getting better. When you actually get to a respectable level that foolishness you're mentioning doesn't happen. Also when I say randoms it doesn't mean I see someone in Leafre and instantly say oh hey come ht with me. You get friends of friends of friends of friends obviously.

How is someone looting out of turn painful on your wallet? What expence did you put into the boss run? Unless you put it upon yourself to apple everyone on your run when they're "randoms" then you would be the dumb one for making that mistake. Now you're speaking my language, taking friends of friends of friends is what I meant in the post before, you didn't seem to grasp that. Sorry you're now speaking for too many people and those people disagree, I suggest you take a look at the kradia section on SW and see just how many people are looking forward to this merge, in fact check the yellonde section too while you're at it. You negative nancies are the ones that can transfer if you don't want to see the server grow. Get off your high horses and embrace change rather than being scared of it.

So in this patch, for anyone who HT's on a normal basis will come to find out something rather interesting. It would seem to be that HT's aggro has been significantly modified to the point where as long as you aren't attacking the part it won't attack you. This also applies for the summons from the Wyverns to the Cornians, they just sit there going back and forth and flying around until you actually touch them.

Also this is amazing news my question is why? Was this done to compensate for the broken avoidability frames? Will HT remain to be this way? I should also mention that because of this his seducing you has been significantly lowered to the point where it was before the frames were broken. All rather interesting if you ask me.

I noticed this in Tespia. It's all auto-aggro monsters, like most Dojo bosses, Elderwraiths, Gobies, Windraiders, etc.
