Agreed.
Maple Story doesn't need stronger bosses, it needs boss battles that are reminiscent of the old Castlevania or other 2D platformer boss battles. Have the bosses use strong attacks, but give the players the ability to dodge or cancel them out. Give boss maps moving platforms that would be used to avoid hazardous terrains. Make bosses harder to hit while having less ridiculous hp values. Make annoying attacks and status effects like Seduce, 1/1, and dispel possible to be dodged while making their affect on the players more deadly.
I can add tons more to that list, but this isn't a Maple Additions thread so I'll just end my post here.

I want something Megaman 7 Final Boss style for normal difficult and then Super Meat Boy for Chaos, plz.
Would be fun to dodge attacks like that. I can only dodge Dodo fish bullets for so long before I get bored. ( ;∀  アハハ八八ノヽノヽノヽノ \ / \/ \

But Nexon likes its fake hard. If it was real hard then you couldn't buy yourself to the top.

MSEA has always had an MoN with slots. The only thing that changed was that it's not One-of-a-kind.
inb4 glasses are time-limited.

they did change mon to one-of-a-kind.. our MoN always had 4 slots to begin with :p
anyway, there's no point in buffing up the attacks of bosses etcetc.. you just need to give the bosses 1 skill ; lag every mapler in the map.
that would be enough to kill everyone

The map is compact with lots of spawns.
The drop rate of equipments was good with decent amounts of meso.

Yeah, that's true, unfortunately, that method doesn't work 100% of the time so they have to make doubly sure that everyone dies.

If that method fails as well, the last would be for the server to crash ~

They're already doing it I guess, many players(who claim that they're legit) post in the forum saying they got banned for the reason of keyboard macro-ing.
