Maple Story's real problem.

Dark scrolls drop? I've never gotten one... and I hunted at wolf-spiders, and other NLC monsters for quite some time. I'll take your word for it though ~_~ But dark scrolls do not drop from the vast majority of monsters and therefore the main supply is from Gachapon.

Haha, if you notice in my Wolf Spider Guide, I posted the pictures of me finding both scrolls. They were totally unexpected and I never found them again. It's been 10 months since I began grinding at spiders, or 30 levels, from 100~130. Which means two scrolls in ten months, you might as well sell something in the MTS and gach one. LoL.

On a side note, the two other dark scrolls I have found... both were at Showa, when I found a 70% shield def from a mob when Meteoing it for the purse, and the other was found passing by looking for Anego.

Yeah, all of Leafre (at least in Global) has awful droprates.

About the droprate, I think it's fine. When Nexon implemented Leafre and it's Lv 100 weapon drop, they really only decided that they wanted to make them drop from Horntail only. However, they added a VERY tiny droprate at the other monsters just as a, maybe a privilege, I guess. I don't really know their true intentions, but that should be the case, seeing that the Lv 100 weapons have such low droprates. I remember when Zakum was this way, and the Lv 90 weapons were difficult to find.

The problem with that system is that the higher levels monopolize the economy, being the only ones able to obtain the equipment. That is the real problem.

Dark scrolls need to drop from a lot more monsters. Something that is that integral to upgrading equips and in such high demand should not be only available from Gachapon. It completely screws up supply and demand.

The other problem is that there are too many gachers, imbalancing what is considered decent equipment today. To counter that, Nexon should implement a NEW gach that gives off only 60%/10% scrolls. (Not sleepywood gach). These 60%/10% should be the counterparts of the 70% scrolls without the 60% form, such as Helmet INT and Helmet DEX, or Shield MA (Yea, it has a 60% but there are barely any in the market). That way, Nexon can both rebalance the market and profit off of it. (LoL, double win, right?) I don't think that making the droprate any higher will benefit Nexon so they won't implement that.

The game itself isn't the problem, and neither are the gachers. You can just go grinding at spiders. I'm pretty sure anyone who can 1 or 2hko spiders can go hunt at a pretty decent rate, probably even better than my rate. I'm still misting and I hardly ever have trouble affording my pots, or even scrolling my equipment. Why should anyone else have trouble? They should be killing at the same rate right?

Bishops shouldn't be complaining about pots either because they can just sell leech. -_-"
