Nexon (co-CEOs Kang Dae-hyun and Kim Jung-wook) announced on the 13rd that it has added a new 'Journey's Treasure' system to 'MapleStory: Idle RPG,' a mobile idle RPG co-developed with Able Games (CEO Kim Dong-woo).

'Journey's Treasure' is new content linked to idle hunting. Players earn 'Journey's Treasure' EXP each time they defeat a Monster through idle hunting, with higher chapters allowing for faster EXP accumulation. Once the EXP gauge reaches 100%, players can select one of four cards—containing items such as 'Star Force Enchant Scroll,' 'Miracle Cube,' 'Meso,' and 'Spell Trace'—to claim their Reward. The three unselected cards will have their reward tiers increased, allowing players to obtain larger quantities the next time they make a selection.

Alongside this, various quality-of-life improvements are being implemented. First, overall class stat adjustments are underway, starting with buffs for certain classes. The burden of major combat content, such as Party Quests, Boss Raids, and growth Dungeons, has been eased by reducing the damage taken from Monsters. Additionally, Equipment Items received as Party Quest Rewards will now have more sub-options. An auto-matching feature has been added to the 'Expedition' system for automatic Party Quest progression, and a bulk sweep feature has been introduced to clear all five growth Dungeons at once. Other improvements include enhanced preset usability, better combat screen visibility, upgraded membership benefits, and a new filtering function for the number of Equipment sub-options.

Furthermore, three new Legendary Relics have been introduced. 'Reindeer's Spear' increases Attack and Defense Penetration by 5% each; the Defense Penetration bonus doubles against a single enemy and triples when defeating a Boss. 'Secret Map' increases Attack by 5% and final damage by 5% when there are 10 or more enemies, with the final damage bonus tripling during 'growth Dungeon' combat. 'Ring of Cycle' removes its effect every 5 seconds and checks the Character's Critical rate: if it is below 100%, Critical rate increases by 30%; if it is 100% or higher, Skill damage increases by 40% and basic attack damage increases by up to 60%.
