Oh look they fixed Arrow Blaster

Using an Inventory Slot coupon while the character is dead will now consume the coupon.

There was a glitch, where doing that would give you the inventory slots and not use up the coupon. People abused that. It finally got patched recently.

Just negate the sentence...

"Using an Inventory Slot coupon while the character is dead will not consume the coupon."

AKA 1 coupon = maxed slots if you use them while you're dead

"Hayatos are no longer able to leave their tutorial maps by dying."

Well then, guess that means no more "competition".

Hayatos are no longer able to leave their tutorial maps by dying.

And Permanent Hayato Beginners dies with that.

I wonder how long its been out . I know wut it meant. Bit crazy xD

I don't really see why they'd get rid of the hayato thing... Oh no! People might get mist cutters! Or players might be perma hayato beginners! The agony! But oh well.

Well, Nexon has stated in the past that perma beginners was never really intended in the first place and dying in the tutorial sounds a lot more roundabout to get a permabeginner than other characters.

It's like if you could leave the tutorial as a level 200 aran or somethin.

Nexon did embrace the idea of perma-beginners, though, after a short while. It even used to be in their game guide. They said 'it's considered an advanced way to play the game'. The new guide on the website now pushes you to job advance, though.

They got the Katara Forgeing Stimulator but they forgot the Forgeing Manual lolz

And ofcourse they added 1-2 weapons for beginners only (Frozen Tuna and the mythical Maroon Mop).

Don't forget Sake Bottle.

A glitch that makes you invulnerable to monster's touch attack when you use high platformed chair (eg. Saturn chair, red mesodizer chair (?)) is fixed. If you stand on a platform where the monsters are proportional to the base character (before you sit on the chair), and the monsters touch you, you will get damage. That happened when I afk with pet auto-hs at KSH -2nd drill hall for 10 mins = died.

Have you checked that at e.g. snails? Can someone else verify too e.g. at RLH?

Works at RLH and evo lab.

Then could it be that he sat too close to the platform area, and in which case the monsters that spawned on the upper platforms could reach him with their attack?

Didn't know that was a glitch. I thought it was intended since they visually had your character so high of the ground. Being able to have a safe spot on a map with normally no safe spots is a neat utility.

You mean was.

You just sat in a spot where the mage's magic attacks could hit you. This still works, and isn't a glitch.

 Spoiler

If it was 'fixed', I'd be getting hit and not be in my chair in the same map you mentioned.

Seems to be more of a I was afk leeching in a bad spot and died, MUST OF FIXED A NON-GLITCH, TOTALLY NOT MY FAULT situation.
