I know right? I came back to Maplestory recently for some old memories + fun (new PQs + event) The first thing that happens in BL chat is my old friend QQing about how he needs more %dex. He "only had +12% dex". Then of course another one of my friends chats me and asks me why bowmen need STR. I reply that it's needed to equip bows, and he responded that he would rather go STRless and spend billions on a VIP bow. I mean really? It's a few points of w. atk (12 w. atk, to be exact) in exchange for the billions spent on a STRless bow.

It became all about damage and money once % equips came into the game. Sure people before that had godly equips, and were damage freaks, but not the biggest. Since the % equips came out people are gettin 15% stat (str, dex, int, luk) on 1 equip. Boosting your damage to unknown levels. And money to fund your character with all this. Sure you can go out to the store and spend $100 on nx just to boost your damage. But in my opinion, people are taking being damage freaks way to far.

Since I've been around, people have always been concerned about damage. Don't play that, "When Maple was new, people didn't care AT ALL about damage." People have always wanted to be more powerful, be a higher level, and have money... I mean, who wouldn't? I do agree that it's gotten worse recently. People seem to think that damage is everything. I just logged off, after being taunted by a friend about my damage (and I'm sure he was kidding), but he just wouldn't give it a rest. It was like he honestly thought he was a better NL than me, just cause he could double my damage range. Sure, he's a more powerful NL, but I really don't think that it has a big impact on the way you play the game. Okay, back on topic, it would be nice to see people care a bit less about damage, but people have always wanted to be more pro, why do you think BSUCLA did what he did?
