The oath & White Day 2011 event

The official server was updated on March 10th to version 1.2.128.
Nothing really interested was added in the test server, except for one thing. A glimpse of new content that we might see very soon.

The last patch contained minor changes and events. This one added another bunch of events.
You might think that playing for more than a month without new content is boring. It’s possible, but these events are fun and you get some great rewards from it.

This patch added a new wedding feature and event and the White Day event.

The new wedding event is all about the oath. The oath is now part of the wedding system in MapleStory.
Married players can swear an oath if their marriage lasted more than 30 and 100 days. If they want to do that, they’ll have to buy the Oath Ticket in Cash Shop which costs 2,000 won.
If you swore an oath, you will get an upgraded ring with some other items such as a Love Chair.

However, there’s a temporary wedding event going on where you can get around the 30 and 100 days requirement. The married players will have to hunt for a special item that drops from monsters.

White Day is what most people say, the Korean Valentine’s Day. This event lasts until April 20th. A long event, but the reward is great!

In Maple World, three types of monsters have fallen in love, trying to stalk and kiss the brave players of MapleStory.
Suspects?

Do you see what I’m talking about? Can you see the perverted eyes of the couple mushrooms?
They have to be defeated because of their perverted minds!

I defeated this bear who has fallen in love. Yeah, you don’t have the hearty eyes now, do ya, punk!
He was so afraid that he dropped a scroll…

You’re not gonna believe this but I was hunting at Skelegons and Skelosaurus in Leafre. I came across this perverted couple mushroom who celebrated their 100 days of love.

The couple wanted to have a threesome with my monkey. Are you out of your mind?! Nobody touches my Dirty Bit!
So I used Demolition and THEY RAN AWAY!! I stole a scroll from them.

You can find these White Day monsters in random hunting grounds in Maple World.
Lv. 10~30 players: Golem’s Temple
Lv. 30~50 players:  Mushroom Castle (Skyscraper maps)
Lv. 50~70 players: Korean Folk Town
Lv. 70~90 players: Mu Lung (Wild Bear Area maps)
Lv. 90~110 players: Leafre (Forest maps)
Lv. 110~130 players: Leafre (Kentaurus maps in Minar Forest)
Lv. 130~150 players:  Leafre (Canyon maps in Minar Forest)
Lv. 150 and higher player:  Leafre (Dragon Nest maps)

When you defeat one of the event monsters, it can drop a variety of scrolls and items. Unfortunately the scrolls are untradeable, though they’re good.
Armor and accessory scrolls 15% and 60%. 15% are the ones that can add weapon or magic attack. 60% are the scrolls that can add STR, DEX, INT or LUK.
Armor means it can be used on hats, top, pants, gloves, capes etc.
Accessory can be used on belts, pendants and face accessories.

The monsters can also drop Chaos scroll 60%, Clean Slate scroll 10% and a Golden Hammer 50%!
The latter item can give one extra slot once on an item, however it has a success rate of 50% and it can only fail.

If you pick up a 15%, Chaos, Clean Slate scroll or a Golden Hammer 50%, a notification will be released throughout the server saying that you got the item. Pretty cool, right?
I managed to get Armor for Weapon Attack 15%.

In like seven weeks, MapleStory Korea will celebrate its eighth anniversary. And no, I don’t think there will be a new job anytime soon. Maybe in the summer.

As you may have read on my blog. A major update will hit Dragon Nest KR very soon. So for the Dragon Nest lovers, here is a preview of the 2nd job skills. ▼
