Why I pump up this thought? maybe a years ago, my dream is to 4th job advancement as a NightLord, and that will be alot of fun, except grinding or attending pq, I can kill some Bosses finally! BUT, that do happened sometimes make me happy, when I grinded to lvl135(Thanks to IGN:3tard, sorry I don't know your forum name ) from lvl120 , I actually find some BigFoots and He'll do it for free but NX, but that's quite a SAVIOR for newbee like me. During this period, I also join a family: SAVIOR, I did meet up some nice friends, and I was quite happy with them by Hunting, APQ and Bossing. And a lot of ppl I can't remember right now , that's you bring me to Zak and Even SCAR/TARGA, that's what I dreamed of the maplestory will be like! Unforturnatly, when I reached lvl 155 through a lot of quests and Bossing, I realized, endgame is not that fun: maybe I don't have a Bishop or another Sponsors to help with my main character, when I see ppl LHC or Cwkpq , that requires a mule , but I don't have (except a APQ mule), and mundane life will be "J>ZAK/KREX/APQ", even some KREX need MULE,and then I zoom into the vanity. This feeling intensify when I accomplished the "Quest specialist" medal . I start to look back: is it the real maplestory I like? that's Why I first choose to play old version maplestory? Do I just want to kill Bosses,like ZAK, by myself? Yes I did it, but I can't join cwk , HT and many other bosses, some bosses are out of my capacity. Do I want the perfect gear? in some degree, I got the perfect clean Zak helm and Hon necklece, but I can chase for perf RC ,FS and cape ..... Do I enjoy the PQ with others? Yes, first time kill zak , first time get apple from APQ, first time join ppq for cool pirate hat, but I do sometimes quarrel with others... After year's effort to lvl up and wash a Night Lord, I realize that's not a exploring and adventure maple world I want. Every day just vote and hope get some CS/WS, then gamble some great gear with 30% srcolls, smage APQ just for some apples, that will be great, but without fun: If I want to play attacker, I must wash completely to join every boss run If I want to join every boss run , I also need a MULE, high lvl mule , I can't image how hard that will be after I lvl up so hard with my NL Additionally, I also Need a Decent gear, because if you are under the range, you'r out of consideration when you apply to join I need a decent gear, I must have a bishop to earn some meso. ... But WHY? I join just for FUN! I already have a job, after work I should go to virtual work? No, that's not gonna happen! that's the main reason why I don't play BS, and I hate to sell leech, If you can help ,just help , maybe I'm too naive, this world gonna like the real world, it's all about MESO: You don't have to grind if you have meso to leech You can get the perfect gear I'm not excited about the gear the mobs drop , because I know I can buy better from someone esle I'm not staying in the KPQ site because I know no one will waste time to join , they can buy leech I'm not excited about killing the boss or get the apple, it's like my daily job I AM excited when I scrolled gear or gacha BUT, THAT's WHAT I WANT! I am so happy to be a member of MR, and so happy to meet up some nice people, who give me advice, meso even gears, thank you the stuff of MR, you are working so hard to maintain the environment, thank you. I remember I want to quit maybe long ago, but this time , it's real. THANK YOU ALL.
