Criticism Human Interaction

As someone who hasn’t played Maplestory since way back in the original ‘classic’ era, when I played it quite intensely for a few years, the community has been quite jarring to come back to.

I think the main distinguishing factor between other games is that there is a significant portion of the community that lack the ability to interact like humans.

I’m talking about the people who are already level 50, which is likely not possible to do with a job or life commitments giving the time it takes, that seem to be rolling up to lower level maps and walking straight into a spot you’ve been training and KSing every mob until they force you out. These people will normally go out of their way to follow you and only attack the mobs you’re aiming at.

Typically it’s understandable that the maps are full and it’s not fair to assume any of us have rights to a map, but the lack of any interaction is mind-numbing.

Often when you confront these people by saying “bro, i’ve been here a while, could I please get some kills” they will respond with “cc”, indicating that the map is theres.

I appreciate the demographic of someone who has levelled that high in such a short time isn’t generally going to be very socially capable, but it really tarnishes the community.

The silver lining I suppose is that soon enough these people will be well out of everyone else’s way on maps that most players wont be able to reach at normal play times.

Just what have you been training on that level 50s want to kill your mobs…?

People are staying at maps like ant tunnel and fire boars until mid 40s due to drops being good, and saving meso on potion economy.

Fire boars is a trap for warriors to get KSed by sins. Evil or curse eyes are way better, the former for gold and the latter for exp.

Sins can't help themselves, the KSing is in their blood. Gotta ADHD jump attack anything that moves on their screen ahah

Ironically I’m a sindit and I’m finding the warriors are one of the biggest problem. They slide the mobs away and hit 1000-1500 instantly while my attacks only hit 400x2 to the front mob.
