Remember when having 4-5k range at lv120 was the norm? It's only a matter of time before people reach 2mill range.

Well, I guess now you can hit 50,050,000. Whopee doo.

Or the ones that did the extra potential only to surpass the damage cap.  Good thing I haven't started cubing yet, I'm waiting for the finalized changes before deciding how I'm going to go about with this.

It's the only the first part of the patch. I can see what Nexon Korea is trying to do(besides pumping even MOAR money out of everyone)
All I'm going to say is that they have a chance to save this game with a patch like this. They better not pineapple it up.

Well, you're still 5% ahead of everyone else for six months.
That counts for some people.

I'm hoping so too. All those objections aside they are trying to bring back the old aspect of hunting and partying together, it's just that I can't envision how this would succeed at this point.

All I'm going to say is that they have a chance to save this game with a patch like this. They better not pineapple it up. I agree completely. This update is a massive change, and what seems like a good start towards Maplestory becoming an actual game again. A lot of these changes are ones that people have wanted for a long time; Harder bosses, cubes that drop, a more interesting item loot system, cap increases, honour exp outside of azwan, Resistance Thief.
The fact that there has been a cap increase so soon after hyper skills makes me think that Nexon realized what direction the game was going in and decided that it needed to change and to finally listen to it's players, so I am all for these updates.
While they haven't gotten things as people would want them ideally, it's still a fantastic start and i'm optimistic about what comes next. It could feel like playing a whole new maplestory again.

Despite it being only on the test server, the ability to rush bosses removed? Hopefully that's not permanent.

I think it'll be since that was a major factor to why people could solo in the first place.

 I typed that without thinking it through. Sorry, not solo, I should clarify that it's that rushing was an aspect that made it so that you didn't need too many people to tackle a boss so that change is going to stay because it runs counter to the supposed objective of this change which is to make parties be large again.

still don't see the purpose, rushers aren't really damage, they keep the boss away from the DPS, if the boss is unmovable, then why bring any rushers, let's just bring DPS

But that's the thing, I don't think they're going to make the bosses just sit there and let the DPS wail on them any more. It might also have something to do with the changed attacks, maybe it doesn't work out if bosses can still be rushed like before.

the boss is going to move wether rushers or magneteers are brought, if rush doesn't work anymore, it isn't needed. DPS would just have to reposition itself once the boss corners them.
and rushing isn't really an easy job either, since a good amount of the times, DPS might cancel the rush/magnet

I didn't realize people still brought certain classes / players only for rush.
Regardless, I don't really see the problem in this change.
You can easily do PB without Rush.
v2 Cygnus Knights can be managed without Rush.
Empress + CPB will be rather tricky without Rush.

Maybe it's this. On the other hand, the HP buff and changes in skill duration for bosses may make it so that it would have been slightly easier with rush. /shrug
