checkboxes

21 April, 2025

we like checkboxes we like taking notes we like imagining a better future

i'm finding taking notes on things that don't exist to be funner than playing the game itself

honestly the next patch might not even have a hyperburn, which ruins the whole plan

it didn't stop me from taking more notes on resources I would have for the new main next patch though

i swear i'm also close to quitting maple altogether i swear
i just need something to help me quit i don't know what

watch me level a character to 260 without a hyperburn instead of playing classic maplestory

recently maplestory has been especially fun as a topic in my head because,
a group of lost ark content creators have started maplestory together
and the group is pretty perfect,
there's the full roster;

the one guy who assumes leadership because he has highest viewership, suboptimal player but generally liked
the sweaty maths guy who has to run calculations for everything and makes fun of people by telling them how much they missed out on in a specific metric
the guy who is absolutely struggling and performs the worst but he's just trying his best
the dude who doesn't care and is just playing along for the fun of it

it's a huge parasocial parasite in my mind ~ - ~

it's making me want play more, which,
there is an issue with that,
the more I play, the more I miss playing bishop ...

restarting my main now is such a destructive decision, but alas, we are often the biggest hurdle and saboteur to our own progress :3
I'll likely be starting him during the anniversary update around may.

when I moved to kronos I made a female archer, and while kronos definitely was a good decision,
1. I do not like playing female characters
2. I've never identified with archer classes, and I still don't

in any case

how fortunate I am to be able to afford the mental energy to be troubled with which class to main on maplestory.

switching mains would mean a new layout though!!!

am I able to hoard all the rewards from this month's tanjiro and tree spirit for next month? that would be cool

also!
there is a big balance patch in korea coming out soon,
haven't gone through all of them but a big thing is that we're all 2-min classes now

i was sick for a while so with the small energy i had i turned to comfort :3

my tanjiro is now level 223, I don't remember how I got there
1.4m combat power

do you know how in temples you donate some coins before praying to make a wish

well I did that with maple

I tried rolling for a vac pet with the 11-pack

i got this guy instead

he watches

I'll take it.

I also decided to roll ssb which I never do; but I saw that the sword goes for $45

that's not really a valid reason

but I did it

I didn't get the sword :3c

on the topic of steam market I've started listing my old things across three accounts, I have 29 things in my inventory now
I imagine people who frequently roll ssbs to have a tooooon

and I already made a sale, a $25 (AUD) pair of wolf gloves <:

the steam sale I think is going to change the game a lot for me because I really like the steam marketplace

good or bad not sure

fun though

closing thoughts:

I saw a Tanjiro named "TannedEuro" and I thought that was really funny

hello

the demon slayer collaboration event is on
where nexon is releasing a class for one month and then converting everyone back to hero because they can't be bothered maintaining the class or something who knows

I didn't plan to play during this event but I've been sick this week and maple is very comforting

our tanjiro

the event comes with a new gambling incentive, vac pets that only requires the standard water of life - which basically means you save $15 a month if you get the pet
there is a low chance to get the pet though, people have spent USD$600 and received 3, or have spent $450 and received none.
I spent $4 on one to see if I can get one of course :3c
We just got a permanent Fennec fox which is still nice

didn't know these pets have backstory

with this patch is the new steam market feature for cosmetics, which is already seeing a lot of activity
example, blood oath:

$760 for a NX weapon is so wild

It costs $3 per listing so I'm not sure if I will take part.

Either way I shall be casually playing through the tanjiro class ~ w ~

the metamorphosis is complete ...

pet rings became available,
expensive little things,
at least the wrapping it came in was very cute!

now we may maximize on the clutter.

tragedy has struck us,
for there was one day where I did not play MapleStory
and that was the day that double miracle time for accessories happened

a huge unforgivable miss from me this is what I get for not playing MapleStory every single day

I calculated my losses

we had 44 accessories total that required cubing;
to lowball the amount required we can say each one was level 140 (though there a plenty of 160 accessories in there)

During DMT: 15.224.000.000 mesos
Without DMT: 31.064.000.000 mesos

So I basically lost 15bil by forgetting to log in that day.

I like the visual feature of the current event with your other characters following you around

never alone
