A lot has happened over all the years I've played MapleStory,

and I always try to save the happy moments as videos or screenshots so I can relive that feeling.

For videos, I use OBS Studio and the Windows feature that records the last 10 minutes. For screenshots, I use MapleStory's screenshot key.

Today, I want to look back on some of my happiest moments playing MapleStory!

The moment I soloed Hard Will for the Genesis liberation quest

From the moment I started the Genesis liberation quests, I was worried about the Hard Will quest.

The spiderweb mechanic in phase 3 makes Hard Will easier with 2 people than alone,

but I didn't want someone else to have to deal with my mistakes,

and I wanted to clear the Hard Will liberation quest on my own. So I kept practicing, and eventually, I did it.

The happiest moment of my 8 months working through the Genesis liberation quests!

I was so excited after clearing the Hard Will liberation quest that I wanted to brag about it with a Super Megaphone, but I never did.

If I had to pick just one bossing achievement worth bragging about, this would be it. Maybe I should have...?

The moment 2,000 부티크 기프트 dropped for me

That time my luck went through the roof in MapleStory

I kept getting just 1~2 as I opened my 부티크 기프트, so I regretted buying them almost immediately. Then, right at the end—2,000!!!

I used the money from selling the tickets to buy some fashion items and even Star Force my Eternal gear to 22 stars.

That memory is why, lately, I've been buying 1 set whenever 부티크 기프트 comes out.

Of course, I haven't hit the jackpot with 부티크 기프트 since,

but you never know what might happen, so I'll keep making sure to buy 1 set whenever 부티크 기프트 comes outㅎㅎ

The moment a boss ring box gave me a level 4 Ring of Restraint to use myself

Back then, a level 4 Ring of Restraint cost around 9 billion mesos—far too expensive for me,

so I decided I'd get one to use from a boss ring box instead.

But box after box gave me nothing but junk rings, and I was getting discouraged.

Then one day, a boss ring box dropped after I beat Chaos Guardian Angel Slime,

and it gave me my first Ring of Restraint.

I opened my equipment inventory without expecting much, and there it was—a level 4 Ring of Restraint!!

That finished off my Seed ring setup for good. Definitely one of my happiest moments.

These 4 moments are some of my happiest and most memorable in MapleStory,

and I hope to make many more happy memories as I keep playing.
