If you could add one thing to maple...

I would add a taxi that lets you teleport to any Ossyria town instantly, without waiting 10 minutes for the boat.

This. Or make all ships except Ellinia<>Orbis be instant, no need to wait. See the bird that takes you between Mu Lung and Herb Town? That one is instant. The train between Ludi and Orbis should be instant. The genie between Orbis and Ariant should be instant. And so on. I mean, when you take the taxi cab at Victoria, you don't see a 5 minutes animation of you sitting in the taxi...

This system would still be pretty good. It would take less than a minute to go from Ludi to Ariant this way.
