Nexon Forum thread about balancing WT monsters

http://forum.nexon.net/MapleStory/forums...49159.aspx

Even if this thread of mine gets replies or not, the more hell people raise about Gallos the more likely it is Nexon will fix 'em. I hope.

I don't know. Did Nexon intentionally buffed up the Singapore mobs so much, or it's some massive programming error? The 1st seems more likely, while the 2nd is far less probable.

They didn't buff them, they just didn't touch them at all from Big Bang. That means their HP:EXP ratio stayed the same, which was fine pre-BB, but with all the mobs rebalanced, gallos really stand out as having a crapload of exp for the amount of HP they have, compared to every other monster in the game.

In other words, every other monster got nerfed but monsters like gallos and truckers, because Nexon was too lazy to edit them.

Bzzzzzzt! Wrong. Stuff like Truckers/Ghost ship mobs got buffed for no raisin.

Truckers were supposed to give 160 EXP, and for no reason they give 495 EXP now, HP unchanged. Ghost ship mobs were supposed to give ~200 EXP, now they are giving over 500 EXP.

Doubt Nexon intended WT mobs to give 2 or 4x the EXP that normal mobs do. That would make normal mobs useless for anyone under 14X-15X

Their level and HP are still the same. Isn't there a good chance their level was meant to be buffed as well as their HP but they neglected to do both?

They actually lowered the HP. >_>

No they didn't.
Gallopera HP Before Big Bang: 43000
HP After Big Bang: 43000.

Truckers, not Gallos. Read up. ^^

If they got buffed, I'm going to say it's slightly intended or accidental.
Also your thread now lacks purpose since the thread you linked has been locked for spam.

i just find it silly that there exists a monster at least 40 levels lower than a 133 ish monster that gives almost exactly the same EXP. That's like a level 30 training at windraiders pre-Big Bang- it's ridiculous. Levling almost 10 levels in 10-15 minutes [truckers]? even that's a little crazy. Staying at a monster for 40 levels and onward because the exp is essentially better due to the fact the mobs have low hp? That's even worse. They need better HP:EXP ratios for all mkonsters, but that's fricken ridiculous to have 8:1 instead of the 5x:1 that most other mobs have.

All I am going to say is they better fix this. Otherwise the whole MS has turned into another black friday event, the one to get there first takes the cake and the rest can fk themselves.

With such a low HP, high exp, huge spawn and easy for training map, galloperas just beat any other training spot post BB.

Nexon forum thread was locked. They obviously don't understand the problem.
