What it does is when you buy it from the cash shop, it locks all the monsters in the map so only your party members can kill them, but people can still pass though. *After 15 minutes of exp not coming in to the owner of the lock, then the map is back up for grabs*. But in order to "lock" the map, you must be the only one in the map, excluding party members. When a party member is kicked, the monsters become unavailable for the kicked person to attack. It would cost about the same as double exp, bout 2k NX, and you can only buy 2 a day, and the last for 2 hours. IMO this would help with ksers. Plus with the exp income*, a level 30 guy couldnt go and lock a newties map. Good idea? Bad idea?

lankesh : Some problems with it. Someone could go lock HHG1. That ruins it for a lot of people. That's an unfair advantage with Nexon Cash. We don't need more of those. HHG1 would have to be empty. That would be so rare.

MultipleAct2324 : If there is a 2hr double exp event, all skele maps/harps will be locked. Hooray. Ignoramus. Skele maps are infinite. Seguewaying from that, the better solution is simply to make mini-dungeons for more maps.

It's hard enough getting into maps, this will screw everyone over. People will make lock mules the day they come out and lock a map for eternity. Fail.

It gives people with nx a huge advantage. Also you can't "own" a map, it's just first come first serve/ ks till they leave. It's an ok idea.
