I like some of the changes. Some thoughts of mine...
1) I'm quite pleased with the Elite Boss drop change (and the box limit) because all of it's attacks (not counting touch damage) is %HP based, so it's equally dangerous for a high level person to attack an Elite boss. The only downside is if a poor player has done 90% (or say, 45%) damage to an Elite boss, and a high level player comes and smashes it with capping damage. The poor person is basically snatched of his/her second box.
2) It also means I have to friggin rewrite my Elite boss guide...
3) This new attendance check in is so lacklustre.
4) I feel that they shouldn't delete the Pink Bean character, just set it to be unplayable... imagine transferring high level equipment to your PB character (can you?), then having it deleted...
5) DIPQ limit halved... saw that coming, but can they raise the monster level cap please...? Also I don't know if making the bonus stages random is a good thing, except that I was really annoyed trying to get the second Hilla vs Magnus monster waves bonus stage, because it's not guaranteed. If they make the bonus stage random but guaranteed I'm quite ok with it.
6) The Legend Returns minigame solo practice mode! This!
7) The Maple Burning Field system might make grinding a little less painful, but it makes me feel like I'm the sheep (or shepherd) having to graze the fields evenly...
One other thing. Ever since the IP maintenance, I have been unable to sustain playing the game for more than 5 minutes (I'm playing from UK). I believe it's trying to protect itself from DDoS via IP-side filtering...? If this keeps up, I may be forced to leave the game but I'll still lurk here.
