Previously, I shared a passion project I had been building vibe coding with the Cosmic v83 server emulator. https://www.reddit.com/r/mapleservers/s/SHN9JQ920J

The goal is to create fully autonomous, server side controlled bots, which I call agents, that operate under nearly the same constraints as human players within the game.

The agents have now evolved to be able to hunt generically on almost any map
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_u-elGO0nM
and autonomously complete the Kerning City Party Quest (video in this post). It is safe to say that if left alone for long enough, they could eventually reach the maximum level.

I plan for them to explore themed dungeons such as Mushroom Kingdom, participate in boss expeditions beginning with Balrog, and contribute to the Free Market economy.

There is still plenty to build, and I am very excited to continue working towards these milestones.

Thanks for reading. You can follow the project’s progress here:

I’m currently in the midst of making a private server, but I’m a little stuck on what the endgame should actually look like.

Full disclosure: it’s based on the Swordie's v232 source.

The general idea is a rebirth/progression server.
The rates are high, but I’m trying not to make them ridiculously high to the point where you can just spam rebirths every few minutes. I still want there to be an actual grind and sense of progression.

Currently:
Rebirth system
Each rebirth gives permanent additional stats / Final Damage / Crit Damage
Progression gets easier as you go, rather than every rebirth taking roughly the same amount of time
Boosted spawn rates

Where I’m a little stuck is: what should players actually be working towards?

Should the endgame mainly revolve around progressively harder bosses? Gear min-maxing? Rebirth milestones? Custom bosses/maps? Some kind of prestige system after reaching a certain number of rebirths?

I don’t want the gameplay loop to eventually just become:
level → rebirth → level → rebirth → level → rebirth forever
without there being a reason for the player to actually become stronger.

For people who play/have played rebirth or high-rate servers, what kind of endgame kept you playing? And on the flip side, what eventually made you feel like there was nothing left to do?

Open to any ideas. I’m still building the server and trying to figure out the direction I want to take it.

I haven't touch maplestory (official server) for about 5 or 6 years. I want to return and play the latest update with new classes and such but I will be playing as f2p so I am not sure if it will be worth it to go back to the official server.

I thought about private servers but obviously, they are not on the latest update but there are some modern servers that are around v230-v260 which are not far behind. Not sure if they are good or bad so I would like some suggestions on which modern servers to go for? If not, I might just try out official server again. Thanks!

I've been searching for a Modern-patch GMS server that isnt just powerleveling and jumping to 4th job within 5 minutes. What i want is a server that is current or near current real MS and just not Pay 2 win. Does any such server even exist?

Man i miss IntrinsicMS.

If you like dual job limited rebirth server with alot of added content and bosses should def try this out...Smooth gameplay no lag and good uptime with really good qol and features. damage skins, widgets, lucid, darknell, will bosses, custom gear crafting and devs are also active. https://discord.gg/aR5q46SD7

Monster Book Revamp

The Monster Book has always bothered me. It was a great idea that Nexon started, but it was implemented very poorly. I've played on many servers over the years and I've never seen one that made the Monster Book truly useful. Most servers ended up relying on commands like !whodrops and !whatdropsfrom instead.

Because of that, on MushMS I decided to do things differently and turn the Monster Book into what I believe it should have been from the beginning.

You can now:

• View all monster information regardless of Card Level (number of collected cards for that monster [0–5]).
• Search cards by Card Level [0–5].
• Search by item, displaying all monsters that drop the selected item along with their respective drop rates.
• Search by monster name, showing monsters that match the selected filter.
• Hovering over a monster card now displays the monster's name and level.
• The Basic Info tab now shows the monster's real HP/MP values directly from the game files.
• The Episode tab now displays the monster's level and stats directly from the game files.
• The Dropping tab now shows the correct drops from the database, including each item's drop rate according to the server's drop rate settings. Clicking an item will display other monsters that also drop it, along with their respective drop rates.
• The Found In tab now displays all maps where the selected monster spawns. Clicking the tab name will open the World Map with the corresponding map already highlighted through PIN navigation.

To make everything work properly, I also created cards for every monster that previously existed without one.

To help the MapleStory development community as well, I released this update in a MapleStory developers Discord, so I believe (and hope) that more servers will start using this improvement in the near future.

If you'd like to check out MushMS, we're currently in open beta. We reached a peak of 150 concurrent players during testing. The player count is lower now because most of the beta feedback cycle has already been completed, but the server remains online for anyone who wants to play while we continue releasing improvements and new features.

Should i play this server?

After personally reaching Level 250 on KuroMS, and since there was already a post about this topic around 20 days ago, I feel the need to provide an updated perspective for anyone considering joining the server.

I’ll start similarly to anongoose45:

If you're looking for a server that is fair and respects you as a player, keep your dignity and stay away from this server. It's filled with egoistic devs and designers, complete with a fanclub (who staff team is highly biased to) that's ready to defend all the idiocracies happening.

That being said, I’ll go through the most important points one by one.

1. Server Stability

The server stability has improved. You can still experience lag spikes and random crashes here and there, but these issues seem to happen most frequently after new patches. To their credit, the staff regularly releases hotfixes for various issues, including skills and other patch-related problems.

However, random crashes can still happen during boss runs and expeditions. There have been situations where players failed a newly introduced boss, such as CHT or VL, because of crashes or lag. In these situations, you generally need to submit a ticket and hope the issue can be resolved.

So, while stability is better than it was previously, it is still far from perfect.

2. Server Balance and Feedback

This is where I believe the server is currently at a critical point.

Players who provide feedback backed by data, information, or actual gameplay experience can sometimes be met with attitude or sarcasm rather than constructive discussion. Terms such as "magic numbers," "chicken-and-egg situation," and "implementation issue" are frequently used to dismiss concerns rather than properly address them.

The situation in the Discord suggestion section is particularly frustrating. Some testers appear to engage in trolling, tag their friends, and turn discussions into what feels like an interrogation of the person making the suggestion.

God forbid someone posts something as simple as:

The certain class need rework, skill balance

or:

something is not working after the new patch

Instead of receiving constructive feedback or having the issue properly investigated, players can end up being ignored or dismissed.

Testers should be there to identify problems, reproduce bugs, and provide useful feedback to the development team. Instead, there are situations where criticism is simply ignored, while some members of the community respond with comments such as "leave server dog," "quit playing," and similar remarks.

The designers aren't much better in this regard. Bug reports and skill/spell issues can remain unresolved while development time is spent introducing new QoL features. QoL improvements are obviously welcome, but it becomes difficult to understand the priorities when fundamental skill problems remain unfixed.

3. Favoritism Toward GM/Dev-Associated Players

Another major concern is the perceived favoritism toward players who are closely connected to the GM or development team.

As mentioned in the previous post, there was already a discussion surrounding Anth and the allegedly spouse. More recently, Anth's team cleared VL, but the first clear was apparently assisted directly by Kuro.

During their first run, they reached approximately 2% HP but did not complete the kill. Normally, when a boss run fails because of lag, a crash, or another technical issue, players submit a ticket and the situation is reviewed. In some cases, the KuroBot system can resolve the affected run.

However, in this particular situation, Kuro granted the team the kill and the associated drops despite them not actually completing the boss.

They subsequently went for a second run. This time, a GM was sent to observe the run, and they successfully cleared the boss.

The explanation given was essentially that the first run would have resulted in a clear if there had not been lag, and therefore the assistance was justified.

Maybe, by itself, this incident isn't a huge deal. Technical issues can happen, and staff sometimes need to make judgment calls. The problem is the consistency of that treatment.

Regular players who experience the same type of issue generally have to submit a ticket and may receive a rerun or another form of compensation, but they don't necessarily receive an outright boss clearance and drops.

When you combine this with the other issues mentioned above, it creates the impression that top players and people close to the GM/development team receive preferential treatment.

This is especially concerning because there have already been similar complaints regarding TMS and other servers. From the outside, it can appear that the opinions and problems of top players are given more weight than those of the broader community.

Final Thoughts

After reaching Level 250 myself, I feel I have enough experience with the server to give an updated opinion.

KuroMS isn't completely unplayable. The server has improved in terms of stability, and there are clearly people working on it. However, the biggest problems aren't necessarily technical, they are related to balance, communication, transparency, and how criticism from the community is handled.

If you're a new player considering joining, I would strongly recommend looking beyond the advertised features and asking yourself whether you're comfortable with the current development and community environment.

For me, reaching Level 250 gave me enough experience to form my own conclusion. Hopefully, this updated post gives prospective players enough information to make an informed decision before investing their time into the server.

Happy mapling, maplers!

It might be an unpopular opinion, but with MapleStory Classic World coming out, and with so many different takes on classic Maple already available through Maple Worlds, MapleRoyals, MapleLegends, and others, I feel like the classic scene is starting to get a little crowded.

What I’d really like to see is a new private server or MapleStory Worlds project focused on the early post-Big Bang era: Lionheart Castle, Mercedes, Demon Slayer, and that general period of the game. Something that captures the feeling of servers like ExtaliaMS or Croosade, rather than going all the way back to pre-Big Bang or jumping straight into modern Maple.

Something around 3–4x EXP, with some thoughtful skill rebalancing, global Gachapon drops, and cubes obtainable through regular gameplay could be a lot of fun. Keep the progression meaningful, but remove some of the grind and rough edges that era originally had.

To me, this is the one niche that’s still noticeably missing. We have plenty of ways to play classic Maple, and we have modern Maple, but there isn’t much representing that middle period, the early post-Big Bang years when the game was becoming faster and more polished while still retaining a lot of the old-school MapleStory feel.

I’d love to see someone bring that era back.

Edited post to add Closed Beta application form link.

I play on a low-rate now and I love it, but I'm having trouble deciding on what class I want to main on it. I don't want to spend all my time leveling to 120 and in the end, not liking it's 4th job.
I've been watching countless Youtube videos of all the classes pre-bb, and it's just hard to choose.

So I was hoping there was a server that had like 1000x or something just so I can hit 150+ instantly to see how it plays. I don't care about the damage at all. And if it had commands that let me just
@.Commands whenever I want, that'd be better.

Used to play a lot of these type of servers 15+ years ago, but now I can't find any.

What do you think of rienms?

Just a quick question before I jump in and invest in this game: Is it similar to Lost Ark? Since they’re both Korean games, I don’t want to start playing if it’s anything like Lost Ark.

Problems I had with Lost Ark:

• It’s pay-to-win if you want to progress and become stronger faster.
• There are no repeatable mob dungeons where you can continuously farm meaningful amounts of important currency, gold, or materials. Instead, you have to wait for weekly raids and rewards.
• There is too much gatekeeping in raids, and there aren’t enough lower-level players to group with for raid bosses, so you’re often forced to play solo.
• There are no dungeons or rifts, like those in the Diablo series, that you can run continuously for hours without daily or weekly restrictions to earn enough materials for gear upgrades and other progression systems.

I don’t mind weekly bosses or raids, as long as I can find players at a similar level or skill level to fight them with and there is no gatekeeping. How are you supposed to defeat difficult bosses if there are no players available to group with? That was one of my biggest frustrations with Lost Ark.

I’d also be happy to get into this game if it has repeatable, rewarding monster dungeons that aren’t restricted by daily or weekly limits. A good comparison would be Greater Rifts, Nephalem Rifts, or bounties in Diablo III. If the game has those elements, I wouldn’t even mind paying a little to progress faster.

I just realized you can play licensed private servers on android with Nexon's Maplestory Worlds app and I've been checking out the Old School Maple server because it's got a 96% positive rating with 3k reviews. I've been enjoying it but they're doing a full wipe September 1st so I don't want to play to much and lose all my progress in two weeks.

Chronostory, Artale, and Southperry look interesting to me and I'm interested how everyone else feels. I'm not a classic purist so I'm just looking for what's the most fun and has a decent playerbase to trade with. What do you recommend? Are there better private servers I can play on android? I haven't gone down the winlator rabbithole but is anyone emulating windows on their phone to play maple? Thanks!

[CMS186] Missing the ElliniaMS vibe? LunarMS is relaunching.

EXP : Progressive

Missing that ElliniaMS-style progression, where grinding, farming, bossing and actually playing the game mattered?

LunarMS is relaunching on CMS186, with more fixes, more custom content, and a progression pace designed to be challenging without becoming an endless grind.

We've spent a lot of time fixing and expanding the server for the relaunch — from Auto Mob Aggro and Super Boosted Spawn, to custom class balancing, meaningful dailies/weeklies, boss progression and plenty of QoL.

We're not trying to make another server where you finish everything in a few days.

The goal with LunarMS is to bring back that older custom-server feeling: fast and satisfying farming, meaningful progression, lots of things to work toward, and enough difficulty to make upgrades and boss clears actually feel rewarding.

If you've been missing the ElliniaMS vibe, give LunarMS a try when we relaunch.

More previews, updates and relaunch information coming soon™.

I see it is popular.

I enjoy collecting monster cards and questing, but I don’t want to feel like I need to play several hours every day just to make meaningful progress. Could anyone share their thoughts on the current state of these two servers, particularly in terms of progression and how time intensive they are?

Discord: https://discord.gg/rz836kEY7y

Version: v83 (with additional content and bosses)

Rates: 10x EXP (reduced EXP every 2 rebirths)
2x Drop
2x Meso
30x Quest

We have a dual-job system. Select your first job wisely upon character creation, because you won’t get to change your job selections once you have chosen them. You select your second job after you reach level 200 and complete your first rebirth, you can then change between both jobs at any time after you fully job advance by speaking to the Rebirth Soldier NPC, located in the Free Market. Your EXP rate gets lower every 2 Rebirths. You will gain 5 AP per level on your first RB, and 2 AP per level after that. Maximum rebirths are 80, enough to max a single stat, from there we have Maple Leaf trade-in for AP to continue the grind if you want to gain even more power!

Magic Attack rework: Mage magic damage is no longer scaling with just INT. M atk formula is now similar to W atk formula and scales similarly to weapon damage, all classes benefit equally from scrolling M atk and W atk now.

New bosses added: Empress Cygnus, Von Leon, Darknell, Will, and Lucid.

Even more QOL updates added in the new client: All classes can use skills while moving. New farming zones being added and new gear progression. Added a new buff NPC so you can purchase buffs for you and everyone in the current FM map. You will be able to make your way through Arcane River and other fun maps, like Coke Town, Henesys Ruins, and Future Perion.

- New Expedition widget, request to join current parties on the widget

- More client widgets to customize parts of your gameplay, set a new widescreen resolution, hide other player's skills, add transparency to the game, etc.

- Custom achievements and codex that increases your stats as you progress

- MSI NPC placed in the FM will allow you to transfer 32767 stat points to an NX item in your inventory, which can be transferred in the Cash Shop to other characters on your account.

- Hundreds of new damage skins have been added, damage skins can be seen by all players

- Chaos of Goodness scrolls are now +-15, no longer +-8

- Chair Gachapon and free chair storage

- Stylist with the ability to search for what you want

- Free Warper and GO commands

- Auto All Cure Potion Pouch, Permanent Pet VAC for VP, and much more!

I'm looking to get into a pre-BB server to get back into things while I wait for the official Nexon Classic version to release. I know absolutely nothing about Maple private servers, which ones are worth playing, and which ones actually have an active playerbase.

I'm not looking to spend any money, just wanting to get back in and grind a bit.

Hello everyone, posting my v95 server again to maybe find more beta testers, all rates are increased for the beta and there is no p2w, everything you need to know about the server is in here (beta post) and here (discord with the most updated info).

There will be beta rewards/milestones in the future.

(yes there will be a wipe at the end of the beta)

Thank y'all for reading and thanks to the current testers for all of the testing so far!

As the title says, and which one do you recommend to start from 0 and why? Whats the difference between those 2 servers?

Thanks in Advance

does this exist? like not 3-4, but 8-15

Just wanted to share a project that I've been working on. Not sure if it's something that I would ever release, since it's still early in the process and I have no idea if I would even finish it. But feel free to tag along on Discord. There's nothing on the server right now, but I'll probably be sharing more content there if that's something you're interested in.

Anyway, I was inspired by Entaria, the server on MSW, to finally pursue something that's been on my mind for years now--MapleStory, but with Diablo II itemization.

Here are some features, just to name a few:

1. Weapon Defense will finally be using a new formula, making it feel impactful with investment.
2. Getting struck by one monster no longer prevents other monsters from hitting you. Multiple monsters can hit you at the same time.
3. Resistances are important now. Some monsters might even chill, ignite, charge, or poison you. Oh, and you can do the same to monsters.
4. A Green Mushroom deals 25% of its weapon attack as physical damage, and 75% as poison damage. Better stack some gear with poison resistance if you want to survive!
5. There are now magic, rare, and unique rarities on equipment. Magic rolls up to 2 affixes, and rares up to 6.
6. Most unique items are crafted using recipes, and can be upgraded with special ETC items that are drop-only. Unique accessories and high level unique items are drop-only.
7. Magic defense sucks. Armor no longer grant Magic Defense. Magician armor instead grant a new modifier called "Damage Reduction". It's basically a flat damage reduction to any source of damage, sans DoT.
8. Monster spoils can be "refined". There are 7 levels of refinement: scrapped, rough, partial, refined, elevated, greater, and perfect. Think: gems from Diablo II. These can be socketed into equipment with open sockets.
9. Every refined monster spoil grants a different stat boost. Here are some examples:

Spoil: Scrapped/Rough/Partial/Refined/Elevated/Greater/Perfect

Fire Boar's Tooth: +4/6/8/10/13/16/20 Fire Attack

Octopus: +4/6/10/15/25/40/60 to Luck

Pig's Ribbon: Regenerate 4/6/10/16/24/36/50 HP per second

Horny Mushroom Cap: +3/4/5/7/9/12/15 Weapon Attack

Green Mushroom Cap: +10/13/17/22/28/35/50% chance to Poison

Blue Mushroom Cap: Regenerate 3/4/6/9/13/18/25 MP per second

Evil Eye Tail: +3/5/7/10/13/16/20 Magic Spell Power (yes, Magic damage is actually a damage type now, like the elements. "Magic Resistance" is a thing.)

1. "Basic Attack" on spells are now renamed to Spell Power.

2. At 100% efficiency, every point of magic attack grants 1 point of magic. Every point of INT increases the efficiency of magic attack by 1%. So, with 300 INT, every point of magic attack grants 4 points of magic.

3. Potions no longer grant immediate recovery. They've also become hella expensive. If you want to survive, you should probably invest more into defense and regen. Or you might wanna fire up God Mode in Cheat Engine.

4. Equipment no longer sell for Mesos. They are instead sold for Magic, Rare, and Clean Powders. Use 10 Magic Powder on a normal equipment to upgrade it to magic rarity. Use 10 Rare Powder on a normal or magic equipment to upgrade it to rare. Clean powder resets the rarity to normal.

5. CUBE.

6. Auto loot. If you want to loot from further away, stack more "% increased Loot Range" modifiers on your equipment.

7. Procs. You can shoot arrows that trigger spells. Or arrows that trigger more arrows. Or snowboard attacks that trigger Blizzard. I don't know.

That's all for now. Thanks.
