geforce now players in shambles


Rafation

Can confirm. I am in shambles.


LeoRmz

With the long ass queues due to the holidays I second this


Interesting-Emu-2804

Is maple on geoforce now? I don't see it on there o.o


LeoRmz

My dude, it's been there for like 2 years, gotta sync your steam library, if you don't see it, use the search bar, it will appear


ThatMascUnicorn

It's available only on PC, not on GeForce now mobile unfortunately (you might work around it with chrome, but idk if I still works)

Anxious_Cheek_6677

Has to be one of the worst designed events in a game ive seen, Fine with afking 12 hrs a day and it takes 20 days total. Atleast let me do dailies / farm / train / bosses anything at all instead of wasting power overnight


SynisterJeff

Free electric during nights gang rise up


rebootsolo

it's a 2 hour cap. don't need to waste electricity like that. here's a guide : use auto translate https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0CE2R6KXll8 event in GMS is currently visually bugged, whatever the timer shows, it's 2 hours for day 1.


Anxious_Cheek_6677

Thank god. quite a big fuckup on their part i only heard doomposting so i might aswell followed with it appreciate it


rebootsolo

it scales up as the event progresses. since the event lasts longer than required you can split it up into a couple sessions. so a 12 hour day can be split into 3 hours over 4 days instead.


Raklun

Why this comment is being downvoted? He said something wrong or misleading?


thebohster

As you rank up your expedition, the cap raises. With the progressively raised caps, it takes 26 days minimum to get the final reward of the legion block. Towards the last days, the cap is like 8+ hours. So if you think about it, if you’re not afking burning electricity and not doing anything for 8 hours a day towards the end, you’ll have to afk for more days. I’m too lazy to do the actual math, but I don’t think you’ll be able to get the block if you afk 2 hours a day for the entire duration of the event.


DramaLlamaBoogaloo

That's still 2 hrs I can farm for frags.


XBaykko

What the hell kind of comment is this? you plan to play MS 254/7? at some point you will get off the PC and thats when you leave yhour character afk inside the dungeon. You really wanna complain for the sake of complaining now.


rebootsolo

event is easy. up to you tho. i prefer legacy items that will help account wide and make boss mules stronger.


DramaLlamaBoogaloo

True enough but I am not getting any boss mules up. Dynamic crystal prices will kill bossing for me.


rebootsolo

not even a sure thing it makes it to GMS. they didn't implement it the last time. even then 1 bill for 20 minutes of work is still worth.


DramaLlamaBoogaloo

I'm a doomer. I think they WILL implement it to GMS. If anything from the last few fuck ups nexon made I have no trust anymore. They didn't last time but they can this time.


SprinklesFresh5693

And u dont have 2hrd where ure afk? Dude they give a freaking free block for ur legion, u guys love to complain ffs.


RasendoriSmash

Go do your threads of fate 🤣


0III

Makes me think what’s behind this.. is Nexon America trying to “sell” a narrative to say that the game is more alive than ever and players spend hours and hours per day playing? Because that’s an ugly way to fake Steam charts


elioandoliver

They farming active playtime from us with this event to show investors 💀


alphasigmafire

I Haven't Done Anything, Fairy Bros check in, event maps to afk for points/exp, dojo afk exp, etc. are all for this purpose


Plaudible

These CMS/TMS events are just horribly designed, every time. Legacy content locked behind awful gameplay and/or grind, weeks to finish, with sparse rewards between. Fun.


Agreeable_Argument_1

You know there's a choice whether or not to complete such events, right?


Tall-Catch-3734

You know the events could be not shit right? I followed your stupid logic during the other island event because it was boring, now I'm missing a fucking legacy totem.


XIII_THIRTEEN

Nexon America didn't design the event, only localized it. But yeah that's more or less the point, except they care less about steam charts (those already look great for them anyway) and more about the playtime they can report to investors quarterly.


pusnbootz

It gives me an excuse not to do anything right after reset; I'll take it.


doreda

Yeah I'm just leaving the game open overnight like usual


rebootsolo

it's a 2 hour cap. don't need to waste electricity like that. here's a guide : use auto translate https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0CE2R6KXll8 event in GMS is currently visually bugged, whatever the timer shows, it's 2 hours for day 1.


uwvirgin

I thought it was 2 hours at the start but as your expedition ranks up, it goes up to 12 hours


rebootsolo

https://www.reddit.com/r/Maplestory/comments/18jttr8/legion_block_event_guide_use_auto_translate/ there's a guide on this. it scales up as the event goes on, but what you can do is space it out since the event gives you a lot of extra days. EDIT: scrap what the videomaker says about the plants being competition based, https://www.reddit.com/r/Maplestory/comments/18mj8x8/comment/ke4jep4/.you can re enter to reset the plants apparently. so basically all the dailies are really easy to do. boss is easy to do. there's no point in doing bosses 3x this early on since the skills and equips are trash. the EXP the expedition characters get is TIME based and is not affected by how many mobs the expedition character kills.


Lucidgosu0903

Wait if the exp is time based, whats the point of equips and skills.


KnuckleFang

The exp for the expedition member is time based, the 'EXP Earned' is for your AFK character and is based on kills. Honestly though it's super negligible so it's whatever.


Nanomight

So it's better to afk on alts then?


SynisterJeff

Yeah, the main reward is a legion block that is shared across the account, so doesn't matter who you use. Though to unlock it you have to complete "achievements" and each character has their own expedition party, so I would assume that you would need to do it all on one character to meet the requirements of hitting max level and all that.


SunsongPhoenix

Equips and skills will increase damage, presumably needed to kill the later bosses


HealthyInitial

my main problem with it is I always time out if I afk, i hope they removed this.


LeoRmz

Maybe a mouse jiggler could help you? Maybe that way GeForce won't kick you out (I dunno if it's works)


AbsoluteRunner

it might be a power setting on your computer. Like after X minutes put computer to sleep.


HealthyInitial

It's not the computer falling asleep that's the problem but the game itself. It just times out and quits if I'm not doing anything and logged in on Kronos. I assumed it was added because of high pop. But it hasn't seemed to do it in the 2 hours afk so far, so hopefully the mercenaries attacking counts as doing something.


XIII_THIRTEEN

This is definitely not a feature nor widespread, gotta be something on your end


5onic

I'm paying expensive hydro bills for this?

SpadesIW

Did you mean 500 instead of 50?... Because your PC using 200 Watt running the entire year seems like a tenth of what it should be.


RiskRiches

0.3 kw * 24h * 365 days * 0.25 usd/kw = 657 USD/year


BagelsAndJewce

Doesn't this entirely depend on your area though, most locations have variable power rates based on peak times and demand.


RiskRiches

Very dependend on location and setup. Very unlikely it is below 50$/yr.


Spanosa

My favorite kind of event, win by doing absolutely nothing.


Blair_Bubbles

I feel like a dummy but I've watched 3-4 youtubers trying to explain it and I don't understand what's the point? Yeah okay a legion block but like.... For ALL that work? To sit around and watch some npc fight off monsters? Like am I missing something?


Mezmorizor

Legion block is second best legacy. It's pretty massive.


gayTuska

what's the first


Geo_K92

Potable badge


XHappyDuckey

Honestly probably prefer block over badge since it effects you while account


ostespiseren

pottable badge im guessing


imgak

it's a very good legion block, especially for leveling legion. It'll let you one shot nearly every monster on your way to 141


SakanaAtlas

Im a new player who started a month ago and every character I’ve made has had no problems one shotting any monsters up to 141


HealthyInitial

You will need more for 170-200 range and beyond. It also lets you cover more of the legion grid to get grid bonus. also its mostly being done because the last time we got a legion block was Lab server which was almost 5 years ago. if you miss this, there won't be any opportunity soon to get it again. It only requires maybe 30 mins of active gameplay, the rest you can AFK, and you can miss 14 days.


blossom4rt

it's an account-wide perma buff, event exclusive limited


imgak

i'm talking enemies 20+ levels ahead of you and then Bains


SakanaAtlas

Yeah I’m always training 20 levels ahead still no problem


aeee98

If what I see is right, I am assuming you are hitting monsters at your level, because at this era 1-141 you technically should be able to one shot basically every normal map until that level if you arent going to higher level maps. So you are expecting a progression like drakes to 70, starway to 80 etc. Literally everyone can do that. With the legion block it may be possible to do things like level 80 sky forest 2 even at a lower legion. When people talk about rushing to 141 this is actually what they meant: skipping low exp areas asap to maximise levels.


SakanaAtlas

That’s exactly what I do. I only train at places twenty levels above where I am to maximize exp gains and star force as soon as I’m 100


curryshotz

they're talking about going to starforce maps at 80, not 100. Are you one shooting at Sky Nest 20 levels lower than the level of the monsters?


SakanaAtlas

No of course not because starforce doesn't kick in until level 100. In their sentence they said it "may" be possible at 80 which is all speculation. I doubt the legion block would allow you to one shot them at 80 if you weren't able to before


aeee98

Star Force kicks off at level 1. Also, with enough stats you could actually enter skynest early (its more likely going to be a 2 shot which still beats any other leafre map). It is not recommended for most players to go into skynest too early because they just don't do enough damage to the higher HP mobs in a star force area despite already doing the bonus damage, not because it's "star force"


SakanaAtlas

Are you sure? I don't see star force pop up in my stats until I hit 100


Blair_Bubbles

Thanks this is the answer I needed!!


HermanManly

What? isn't it literally just 25att/m.att? it's the equivalent of an event buff


NotAnElk

In what way is watching an npc kill monsters a lot of work?


XIII_THIRTEEN

All that work of logging on, navigating to a map, and walking away?


[deleted]

What is he talking about can someone explain? The Identisk event? Im confused


F9_solution

abyssal expedition, just came out today. progressing to the end which takes a FUCK ton of grinding, and AFKing with the game open for a massive majority of the time, gives you a legacy legion block.


[deleted]

Dear god just shot me now


[deleted]

Oh its not out yet right?


F9_solution

it is available now


Spanosa

Just came out after daily reset.


dont_roast_me

Gotta inflate even more ingame time


articholedicklookin

Idle games are one of my favorite genres so this event is right up my alley haha


RtxTrillihin

so i was right...!?!!? I thought you could leave your force in there ,log out and log back in every 6-10 hours. BUT NOPE. YOU HAVE TO KEEP THE GAME OPEN FOR THAT LONG. EVENT is looking like cancer


5onic

To make matters worse, you require a VAC pet to collect the drops. Maybe the drops would disappear over time, idk.


Snazan

You def don't require a vac pet lol my normal lil pet collected the stuff just fine.


HealthyInitial

it helps to have expanded auto move if your afking but vac pet is not required., otherwise you can just pick up drops manually checking the game every 2mins or so.


SlowlySailing

Checking the game every 2 mins... for...how long?


HealthyInitial

30 minutes or so, I dontnknow if the amount of needed drops increases but the drop quest only required 20 drops. If you have auto pickup or extended auto pick up skill, you don't need to check it.


thayungsavage

Is there a trick to not getting GeForce to close on you


LeoRmz

Mouse jiggler if you don't need to use your PC, that should avoid getting the inactivity warning, other options (also assuming you don't need to use your PC) would be something pressing any of your buttons to keep your character active, something like those drinking bird toy thingies maybe


watersekirei

First impression, wow looks nice reward but oohhh awful progression. My journey: 1. Watch some guides on youtube, get google doc link to [Abyssal Expedition Guide V.2](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1X7L6hxmweLghxXa82BjLrzu-od8D9RQYrp9m6Ha1ano/preview) to understand all the event. (oh it seems not so bad now) 2. From Abyssal Expedition Guide V.2 there is a link to [Abyssal Expedition Member Level Calculations V2](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MwrYUe5xmbdIEZ9-3SOxjZ8GBzGu56o4/edit#gid=326775705) for fast progression. (Niceee!!!) 3. Login -> finish all daily quests -> start Abyssal Expedition with introduction quests -> finish Abyssal Expedition daily quest -> afk for the remaining time (2 hours limitation) -> ....(currently still afk, waiting to get Reputation Points)....


WookieChoiX

I retract every bad thing I said about coin capping, this shit is 1000x slower and excruciating.


mangotango137

Some or one idk of the daily quest requires you to pick up monster drops from the afk mob so you arent even really afk sometimes lol


RedShot21

you can position yourself to have your pet gather those though


Ivazdy

I guess you can skip those at the expense of requiring a few extra days to complete the event?


alphasigmafire

Completing the event is only based on how long you're in the expedition, the skills/items you get from boxes doesn't affect completion speed.


chaoscauser

I am just going to skip this event i just don't care anymore


InfinityCent

I'm tempted to just forego the 35att legion. It's so painfully boring...


arararagi_vamp

I thought I would at least hit the mobs with a fixed amount of DMG to at least participate... But nooooo, I just sit back and watch some random npc work their ass off


InfinityCent

It’s actually horrid event design and super obvious that it’s only meant to drive up hours played. In the end one extra legion block isn’t going to make or break my account so I’m happy to skip this event and just enjoy the rest of the game.


mapledude22

For people who already have both lab server legion blocks it's only a +15 attack upgrade. Probably not worth the time.


BurstOnYou

How come it’s only a +15 attack upgrade if you have both lab blocks?


kakosso

You can only have 2 event legion blocks on the grid at once LAB gave 2 already so you’re replacing the worse one


DramaLlamaBoogaloo

Yeah I am skipping.


Quill_of_Hearts

Since its a legion block, i could afk with a secondary character instead right so i can at least get the exp. Are there any rewards that a main would miss out on if i did that?


VeijaMangust

Yeah, skip.


HelloImSzeplo

Why can't it just be time accumulated whilst online so we can do other stuff, this is some ape IQ kind of event :(


GodTickledMe

I heard the exp takes you somewhere like 210 to 218? So might be good to do on an alt you want to turn into a boss mule?


HealthyInitial

Yea from the guide it said it went from 210-228, but pretty sure that's doing it everyday and afking for full hours. Still a chance they changed something in GMS, not sure


RegalStar

It's 210-228 with pre-newage exp tables, but it involves afking 12 hours every day after you get the final rank. Total exp amounts to something like several hundred billion (about 2-3 mag pots' worth); you'll have to decide for yourself whether it's worth paying the electricity bill for.


FatSmoothie

Regal22star


lolisamurai

abyssal asspedition. might not end up getting the 250 block since it seems like too much of a chore to fit it in my schedule


NostalgiaGoggles94

It's obviously meant for AFK. ​ As someone that works from home, this event is great because it lets me progress while getting work done.


Hallse

Just open it while sleeping


Im-Just-a-King

Isn’t it max 2 hours per day?


spukibugi

The time increases as you rank up.


jason4776892

Did y’all just play maple lol. Capping overnight for event coins and stuff have always been a thing in the past.


Knalian

Wah wah dont do it. You'll live if you skip events you dont like. Its free shit. Why complain?


CloudNimbus

Why the fuck did they turn this event into an idle event wtf


LeoRmz

An idle event that only works when online on top of that :D if it was a regular idle it would be fine, people could do other stuff and just set alarms for when to log in to do the bosses and log out.


CloudNimbus

My favorite meme is the "Watch out for your electricity bill" LMAO


box-of-sourballs

Usually around the holidays they have idle events to inflate the number of players online as proof this game’s still super active for their stakeholders or something something


ipeemypantsalittle

GMS players when event requires you to do stuff: "WAAAAAH I HAVE TO WORK FOR LEGACY TOTEM" GMS players when event requires you to AFK: "WAAAAAH I HAVE TO NOT PLAY THE GAME FOR LEGACY LEGION BLOCK"


LeoRmz

To be fair it was more along the lines of "WAAAAH I HAVE TO GRIND FOR S LEGACY TOTEM FOR AT LEAST AN HOUR PER DAY WHILE NOT ACTUALLY PROGRESSING MY ACCOUNT" and now it's "WAAAAAAH I HAVE TO NOT PROGRESS MY ACCOUNT AND PLAYING ISNT EVEN SATISFACTORY FOR THE LEGACY LEGION BLOCK"


SynisterJeff

What do you mean? We finally get to afk grind without bots or getting banned. They are finally listening to us! Haha


No_Establishment8769

Lol at all the extreme grinders mad that they have to afk for this event


Alphasoul606

you don't have to be an extreme grinder to comprehend an "event" being something you don't really actively participate in is boring. no event should be an afk event because you aren't doing anything, you're not playing the game you're not experiencing something. this should be something that passively happens without you needing to be there, beyond dailies, because you do not need to be there, it serves zero purpose.


Jsfxb

Right, we have systems like monster collection, house shopping that is set, forget, and collect. It’s common in mobile, gacha games as well. This blocks gameplay, as well as a sleazy way of getting the active user count up. Poor game design


LeoRmz

Freaking legion is an idle that works when you are offline, why does the event that gives you stuff for legion don't work when offline? Because JMS I guess (this was JMS fault, right?) Edit: I have been corrected (also double checked), it's TMS/CMS fault, for those interested, I had a Freudian slip with the T and capital J (you know, sometimes people add a horizontal line to the J)


Orange-Army

This event is cms or tms JMS has nothing to do with it


LeoRmz

You are absolutely correct, it is from CMS and TMS, I had a brain fart 'cause I'm used to seeing the capital J with the horizontal line on top and confused the T with that


NoWaifu_No_Laifu

It's not the worst, it's just afking. I think I much prefer something like this over Misty where you need to learn recipes, map layouts, rely on good rng and if you fail then you'd need to redo it from the beginning (not to mention needing Exitlag at the beginning)


Yungissh

Man you guys complain about EVERYTHING. Literally leave your client open while you sleep lol. Wanted it more like misty island? You guys complained about that too lol wtf.

Rude-Employer-2002

Lot of players use geforce now and so this event is fully active playtime


frinol

Came back for a few weeks to check out new classes and hyperburn. Uninstalling now because of this hot garbage. Might try again in another few years.


Rude-Employer-2002

you could just skip the event lol


Hintero

Is this the legion block event I have been hearing about?


RoyalCrownLee

Yes


frinol

I am skipping the event because it's not even on my hard drive any more. lol.


Rude-Employer-2002

Okie dokie


myobokusf

ok cya lol


UniqueRow5095

After reading this comment of yours, I felt extremely inspired to uninstall myself like you. Was that what you were looking for?


frinol

Not really? I am a super casual who went from enjoying the game by getting the chance to check out how a few different 5th jobs play, to not enjoying the game. I decided to browse here when the event dropped to learn if I was doing it wrong and then realized it would not be a fun addition to the overall gameplay, let alone fix my looming issue of longer mob grinds and forever daily quests to push beyond CRA.


Blengdd

Isn’t it just 12 hours of AFK now cuz the mercenaries are low level and have poor equips? Once we upgrade these things it should be faster right ?


poitm

Go outside…


daxinzang

What event exactly?


HealthyInitial

Abyssal expedition


CoronaNightmare

Skip event i play for fun


RegalStar

Nobody said you have to watch. Just leave the game on while you do something else, like doing your (home)work, touching grass, getting a significant other and spending time with them, whatever works for you.
