In the midst of our scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, we sometimes perform hotfixes to address a variety of bugs and issues without bringing down the servers.

Hi Maplers,

We are looking into the following issues discovered after the v.234 scheduled game update maintenance.

• Reboot World Only
  • Issue where opening the Character Info UI after starting the Home tutorial in Reboot world may crash the game client. Please be aware that the game client may crash in the following situations:
    
    • Opening the Character Info UI on your characters after starting or completing the Home Tutorial
    • Opening the Character Info UI of another character after they have started or completed the Home Tutorial
• Aurora, Bera, Elysium, Luna, and Scania Worlds Only
  • Issue where players may not be able to use the 2x EXP Coupon when the 2x EXP event is not active.
• All Worlds
  • Issue where monsters drop items that cannot be picked up when defeated

While we investigate these issues, we ask Reboot world players to please avoid opening the Character Info UI. We are working to address these issues as soon as we can.

[Update Jun 14] Updated the post to clarify that only Cubes that were used during the expected event period and did not benefit from the Magical Miracle Time bonus will qualify for the refund.

Attention Maplers,

During the Magical Miracle Time periods on Bera, Scania, Aurora, Elysium, Luna, and Burning worlds, some Maplers would remain logged in, not see the "It's Miracle Time!" banner appear on their screen to denote the bonuses were in effect, but begin using their Cubes anyway, believing the bonuses were active. This was in error, and to compensate players for the missing effect on their Cubes, we will be returning 50% of the Cubes that were used without the MMT effect active to players through the Gift Drop feature within the next week. We apologize for the inconvenience, and thank you for your patience.

Thank you,

- The MapleStory Team

Attention Maplers,

During the Registration phase of the Magical Miracle Time event for Reboot world, some Maplers attempted to register for their Magical Miracle Time, but due to technical errors were unable to properly save their registration. We apologize for the error, and will be running a make-up Magical Miracle Time for those players on Saturday, July 23.

Please note that this Magical Miracle Time will only be active for players that purchased tickets for Magical Miracle Time but those tickets did not result in a properly registered MMT period. Those who did not purchase a ticket at all will not be able to participate, and those whose issues were addressed as part of the July 7 maintenance and did receive a MMT period will also not be able to participate.

Make-Up Magical Miracle Time Duration: Saturday, July 23, 2022

• PDT (UTC -7): 8:00 PM (Jul 22) - 9:00 PM (Jul 22) & 1:30 AM – 2:30 AM & 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM
• CEST (UTC +2): 5:00 AM – 6:00 AM & 10:30 AM – 11:30 AM & 12:00 AM (Jul 24) – 1:00 AM (Jul 24)
• AEST (UTC +10): 1:00 PM – 2:00 PM & 6:30 PM – 7:30 PM & 8:00 AM (Jul 24) – 9:00 AM (Jul 24)

Thank you,
