    As far as I know, high level items like timeless lampion, reverse lampion, and so on don't exist.
    Not even the maker skill is available to make them. Maker skill was a crucial element in Magatia.
    I'm not sure why this is removed...

    Before I quit pre big bang GMS about ten years ago, I remember collecting items to make a reverse lampion.
    I never finished it but I can tell you it was the most challenging quest I have ever done and it was fun, at least for high level characters who have nothing to do but do bosses all day.

    Without these weapons which require a high number of dex's (for Night Lords specifically), players in MapleRoyals are encouraged to
    go dexless. This is more or less a must than a choice. I can hardly find anyone who is not dexless.
    Without better items for people who want the old fashioned paths, what is the incentive to go the old fashioned Night Lord?

    Wasn't the purpose of this server so that people enjoy Pre Big Bang MapleStory?? A game that is free of hackers, greedy GMs, and play to win base?

    Or rather is it just modified to fit one's opinionated vision?

    Myself is not dexless and I'm almost frowned upon to remain this way. Even after investing high amount of money into good equipments,
    my damage will still fall short against dexless. I don't see any reasons to hold them back...

    Serious considerations and explanations are appreciated.

    Ok, but you understand every star throwing thief is dexless in this game?

    I'm not asking to compromise the philosophy of this server.

    But v.63 had Magatia and it certainly was not complete.

    Introducing maker skill is very possible and I don't see why it should not be done.

    Being dexless has nothing to do with reverse weapons and introducing them wouldn't change it.

    Not sure what the philosophy of the server has to do with the maker system not existing in v.62.
    Could you please tell me what other v.62 server has it working, it's very interesting since far as I know you can't create custom skills.

    Like Andreas said being dexless has nothing to do with this, everyone would still be dexless even if reverse/timeless weapons were released. Most people would just have to switch from luk earrings to dex or something like that. It simply doesnt matter that you need 10 more dex to equip it, its still best to stay at 25dex and get better dex equips then. The reason why people are dexless is because theres more equips that can be scrolled for dex than luk.

    My Assassin uses normal levels Dexterity. :)

    I also really enjoyed the Maker Skill thing, and this server is kind of becoming more of just a Nostalgia server and not-so strictly v62.
    Though from all the times this has been brought up, I've been getting the impression that the Maker Skill was broken and could be exploited somehow? T'was nothing I ever knew of when I played in GMS, but I was pretty young...
    Could anybody explain that if it's a thing? Was the Maker Skill broken or am I getting false impressions?

    maker skill allows you to create timeless weapons which have self enhancing features.
