[In Progress] April Gachapon Update

[Notify]

http://maplestory.nexon.net/shop/spe...is-week/00Ftt/

The Great Gachapierrot works tirelessly to provide you with the very best items, but even he struggles to find the perfect balance sometimes. Not to worry! We shipped in a team of Gachapon experts to give him a few lessons on supply and demand. They took a look at your suggestions and recommended some major changes to the entire Gachapon list! Youll find the following tweaks in the next update:

• Significantly fewer scrolls.
• Double the chances to get Nebulite.
• Increased rates for chairs, weapons and Mastery Books.

In other words, the Great Gachapierrot is ready to rock.
April 3 to April 30, 2013

Chairs Galore

Between Hyper Skills, Spring events, and Miwok Boys, we were at a loss as to what we could best celebrate in the Gachapierrot this month. Then we thought, well, why not all of them? Check out these twelve limited-time chairs for April:

• Lotus Leaf Chair
• Chair on the Range
• Cherry Blossoms Chair
• Teatime with Sharyl
• Nautilus Chair
• Heros Chair Aran
• Heros Chair Evan
• Heros Chair Dual Blade
• Owl Chair
• Suri Chair
• Yun Chair
• Miwok Chiefs Chair

Lv. 150 Japanese Myth Equips

These weapons and armor pieces will make anyone a bona-fide Sengoku warrior without all the legwork! These items are available in both normal and PowerGachapon to increase your chances of finding one!

Corsage Medals

April showers bring May flowers but why wait? Bring on the flowers with three different flower medals, which give +1 to STR/DEX/INT/LUK and have no level requirement.

lol @ some people on my server who spent billions on the Clover medal.

Fewer scrolls?
No, Nexon. Until I see "no more potions" and "no more equips that drop from normal mobs or can be bought at NPC shops", I am not buying Gachapon tickets.

Speaking of which, does anybody else find Tot's lesson on Gachapon to be a perfect example of Nexon shooting itself in the foot? I take his free ticket to a gachapon machine, it shows me "Hot Items" that are all worthless, and I "win" a single dexterity potion... Yeah, that'll make me want to keep gaching!

You're looking at it all wrong, by Gaching you get a free level up from 45 to 46 or whatever it happened to be (you'd think I would remember since I've done so many times). By conditioning a Mapler to associate free level-ups with Gachapon, Nexon might be able to trigger that addictive endorphin release that comes with the satisfaction of leveling up with its money-blackhole Gachapon. Can't you feel it? FEEL IT!

Oooo pretty corsage medals.

That is simply just another "version" of gachapon that is geared only to give crap items so people can't game the system.

Except it's only one, easy level.

I know, but I'm saying it's self-defeating.
It would be better to not give a ticket at all, just describe what gachapon is. Same as, for example, the lesson on using FM merchant stores.

Do want that lotus chair.
And Stephen owes me 1.6b...hmmm

[Takebacker]

game the system.

Never understood what was wrong with this. Back in the day when it was safe to gach because you'd always get great dark scrolls at least there was relative safety in pouring USD into gach. You could still fail hard, but it was far less possible than cubing things in general where you essentially always fail, until you don't, and then you end up failing anyway because whatever you cubed is extremely hard to not devalue. Gachapon doesn't need to have those properties if they did it right...they could have people using gach to make profit and then just regulate the items so they won't deflate overnight.

Whatever. Gambling isn't profitable so why should this i guess.

>Lotus Leaf Chair

Why, Nexon, why? People who didn't do the event shouldn't be rewarded with the best chair in the game.

What event was that?

> chair elitism

[Grey]

What event was that?

One of the Cake vs Pie events, if I remember correctly. Took quite a few emblems or whatever they are, like 400 or 600, took a lot of time and dedication.

[MetaSeraphim]

What event was that?

Like the 5th or 6th maple anni.

> chair elitism

You think this is a joke? It's motherf'ucking serious as a heart attack. Now every f'ucking noob is going to have Lotus Leaf.

That's it, I am throwing away all 152 of my chairs and quitting the game, that is how serious this is to me.

chairs in maple are equivalent to hats in tf2, got it.

[zantgx]

If people would boycott the Gach system maybe they'll do away with it, or give it better chances.

That's the best chair? I'm detecting sarcasm here.
