• All MapleStory game servers.[/*]

[/*][*]Changes and updates:

• [u]MapleStory will be updated to v.255.2.0.[/u][/*]
• The following content regarding the Frenzy Totem has been changed:[/*][list]
• [u]Resolved an issue where the Frenzy Totem and Chains of Resentment mob respawn speed was not applied as intended.[/u][/*]
• [u]Resolved an issue where Frenzy Totem was not able to be cast again in a a map where a Frenzy Totem was used.[/u][/*]
• [Dev Comment] The new Chains of Resentment totem was designed based on the previous Frenzy Totem, but we have confirmed that stats related to mob regen speed wasn't applied as intended. This has caused the overall mob regen speed to drop compared to before, and we apologize for the inconvenience we have caused the players. As notified before, the dev team's intent was to keep the previous Frenzy Totem's mob regen speed and mob regen quantities, and this will apply in the same way to the new Chains of Resentment totems. The Chains of Resentment differs from the Frenzy Totems in whether the effect remains on the map when the caster moves maps, and the effects of the Chains of Resentment disappears when the caster moves maps. In order to prevent disrupting another player on a map where the Chains of Resentment have already been used due to this differentiation, the Chains of Resentment can't be used again on a map where the effect has already been applied. The Frenzy Totem being able to be used on the same map again was an intended mechanic, and any unintended changes after the v255 patch will be fixed with this maintenance, and please understand that the previous specs weren't intended.[/*]

• [u]The Ride or Die Horntail HP has been adjusted.[/u][/*][list]
• [Dev Comment] The intent behind Ride or Die is to allow characters to defeat bosses based on their strength and earn rewards, thus motivating players to become stronger. This event has 6 types of bosses, and for the Horntail, we have confirmed that its HP is much lower than we first intended. This has allowed players to defeat the Horntail much more easily in Code S difficulty, resulting in an experience different from what we intended. Thus the dev team has decided to increase the Horntail's HP to provide a difficulty level more appropriate to the intended strength of the character. We apologize for the inconvenience for the Ride or Die event.[/*]
