Doesn't it end tomorrow? How the heck can you get 100k candy in 24 hours without playing them all straight with no sleep or work?
I need 12k candies for the halloween damage skin and I know it will be hard.

I got 60k in 2 hours with Spider, Greed Pendant, and un-Kanna'd (slow spawn) evo. I'm sure one could 100k in like an hour at EVO provided you use spawn and drop gear.

Re: Unscheduled Maintenance - October 30, 2014
I can get around 20 to 25k in 30mins of Evo with 70-100% spawn and 20 to 30% drop rate. Also Using the 1.6 familiar spider.
I need like 9-11k on 3 mules, and 40 to 60k in 2 of my mains. Boom at least 18 craftmans that im trying to sell in bera (Without success).

Re: Unscheduled Maintenance - October 30, 2014
So I've been doing it all wrong this whole time? I got a mutant pig but I swear I didn't notice THAT BIG of a difference farming candy with him. I also didn't know the avarice pendant increases drop rate, IIRC it says something about increasing drop rate of rare items so I assumed it was just... items with potential
Now the dumb questtion, what is EVO? Evolution lab?

Re: Unscheduled Maintenance - October 30, 2014
Yep, link 3 with the flying mushrooms (I swear its not drugs!), bring a pet obviously or you are getting squat due to the huge amount of event crap (The quills, the dark totems items, the dark tokens, etc)

EVO is Evolution Lab and Map 3 is a great place to farm for event drops if you have good cores on (you can buy basic spawn increase and drop rate increase cores in the shop). He's also referring to the Greed Pendant that you get from the Rhino boss in Monster Park Extreme that increases drop rate, not the Avarice Pendant from regular Monster Park that only increases drop rate in Monster Park.

Excess items have been removed?
How do they remove ill-gotten inventory slots?

Re: [Complete] Unscheduled Maintenance - October 30, 2014
With that much time you think they could at least try to fix other stuff like Leviathyn Invulnerable frames while doing the water torrent attacks or the stupid spawn glitch in evo world, but no.
I sometimes wonder what the fudge they do during a maintanance that they take so long to fix 2 or 3 things :/.

Here's a little explanation of how changing/fixing online software works:
1) Someone In Charge decides what needs to be done
2) Programmers write or change the code accordingly, and testers test it, on a development computer or network. This can take minutes or years, depending on the size and difficulty of the change. During this time, the "live servers" (a.k.a "production") are unchanged.
3) The live servers are brought down, and all data is backed up.
4) The updated software is installed on the servers. This means copied from the development system.
5) If there are changes to the client, the new client is copied to the public download server.
6) If there are changes to the database (such as "deleting excess items"), they are enacted.
7) The new software is cursorily tested to make sure nothing broke on the way from development to production.
8) Servers are brought back up, and customers can use them.
Only stages 3-8 happen during the maintenance.
All programming is done before the maintenance.
Therefore complaints along the lines of "why is the game down so long if they're only fixing a couple things" are meaningless. They don't program the fixes while the game is down. What takes long is the testing, and the going over the database.
The bugs you're talking about aren't even on their Known Issues list. And both have been around for years, so to expect them to be fixed in an emergency maintenance is a bit unrealistic.
