We hope that this will be a useful record and helpful information for our players.

Here you'll find a list of hotfixes that addresses a variety of bugs and issues reported within the v.249 Minar Picnic update.

v.250 - Mayple Island Update Preview



Happy 19th anniversary, MapleStory! Explore the numerous events, mini-games, and shops filled with one-of-a-kind goodies at Mayple Island. Experience the adorable new class, Forest Child Lynn, and her versatile kit that will be influential in any party environment. Play through the newly revamped [Hieizan] Theme Dungeon with quality of life and balance improvements. Organize your outfits and decorate all your characters with the return of the Cash Shop Transfer event. Create a Zero character at any time of the year now that Zero creation is no longer limited to specific seasons!



The fairies of Mayple Island have prepared so many events for you in celebration of the 19th anniversary of Global MapleStory! Participating in challenges every day will fill up the Mayple Wish Orb with wishes which will reward you with items, such as Growth Potions and 3x EXP Coupons. There will be three currencies you can use to redeem for items, Mayple Leaves, Mayple Candies, and Mayple Stars that you can earn from participating in daily events and mini-games. Additionally, the Mayple Island event map has numerous interactive areas where you can take pictures with your friends, so try sitting on various parts of the island (our favorite is the Merry-Go-Round). We can’t wait for you to enjoy the beautiful Mayple Island!





Forest Child Lynn is our newest class who uses the power of the forest to help Maplers defeat their enemies! Her Spirit Guides, Pan, Penni, and Paeon provide her with extra damage and each have special skills that can be helpful in any situation. Lynn has a few mobility skills including ‘Light Leap’ (flash jump) and ‘[Focus] Support Flight’ which instantly transports herself to a target and vice versa. Additionally, her kit is quite versatile containing multiple healing skills and even having a skill that increases item drop rate for herself! Lynn will always be available for creation but we will have special durational rewards at launch, so we highly recommend creating her upon release!





We’ve revamped the [Hieizan] Theme Dungeon so farming ‘Kanna’s Treasure’ every week will be more efficient! First and foremost, you will no longer teleport when attacking Mikagami, but rather only when you are attacked. In addition, the number of hits required to defeat Mikagami has been decreased. We’ve also made adjustments to the skills of Oura Shogun, Miroku, and Princess No to improve the overall balance of the dungeon.





The Cash Shop Transfer event has returned! For one week, you’ll be able to transfer Cash Shop items from a character to any other character of your choice within the same world. If you’re transferring to the same class, you’ll transfer through the Cash Inventory as usual without using the special new Cash Transfer button.





Currently, Zero can only be created during specific seasons but starting from the v.250 update, Zero will be available for creation at all times! Please note that in order to create a Zero, you must already have an existing Lv. 100 character.



 




 

Marvel Machine Spins Temporarily Unavailable



Attention Maplers,

As mentioned in a previous web post, the MapleStory website will soon receive an update. As part of this update, the Marvel Machine page will be revamped, but the full extent of the revamp will not become available until the next Marvel Machine event. During this time, you will still be able to view and redeem your Marvel Machine codes; however, any remaining Spins that have not yet been used will become temporarily unavailable.

We are planning to release the MapleStory website update in early May, and remaining Spins will become unavailable for use at that time. These Spins will be preserved, and when the next Marvel Machine event releases, you will see the fully revamped Marvel Machine web page, and any remaining Spins that you had will become usable again at that time.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and encourage you to use any remaining Spins before the MapleStory website update in early May.

Thank you,

- The MapleStory Team
