# Discouraged Gameplay
## **Table of Contents**
1. **Discouraged Gameplay**
2. **Monitoring Criteria and Methods**
3. **Verification Request for Game Restrictions**
MapleStory N monitors abnormal gameplay behavior in accordance with its operation policies. Beyond the use of explicit hacks or macros, certain behaviors are strongly discouraged.
Below is a detailed guide on what constitutes discouraged gameplay and how such behavior is monitored.
## **1. Discouraged Gameplay**
MapleStory N is intended to be played as a standalone client. \
Running abnormal programs alongside MapleStory N or tampering with PC or network data may prevent proper gameplay logging and is treated as an attempt to bypass detection.
If you engage in the following behaviors, it may be considered use of unauthorized programs, so we strongly advise against them:
1. Playing on a wallet account that belongs to someone else
2. Accessing or playing via remote control programs
3. Running multiple clients simultaneously (including those launched via OS-level features)
4. Using software/devices to monitor and control multiple PCs or wallets simultaneously
5. Accessing or playing using spoofing tools (e.g., IP/MAC address spoofing, virtual hardware)
6. Using hardware/software that enables macro or repeated input functions (e.g., special keyboards, mouses, joysticks, controllers)
7. Launching or playing the game alongside unofficial/unsupported programs
8. Running illegal programs used in other games while playing MapleStory N
9. Repeatedly failing the in-game security systems (e.g., Lie Detector)
10. Farming in-game currency or items using multiple wallets on the same IP/device for personal gain
* Accounts using system information flagged for abnormal activity may be treated as belonging to the same user
11. Any other repetitive gameplay pattern that significantly deviates from normal play behavior
※ Running non-game related apps (e.g., music/video players) will not be flagged as abnormal programs.
※ Any software used to open or modify the MapleStory N client or resources is subject to restriction regardless of actual usage.
※ If new forms of unsupported behavior are identified, this document will be updated continuously.
## **2. Monitoring Criteria and Methods**
If unauthorized programs or abnormal patterns are detected, game restrictions may be applied based on the following criteria:
* Repeated use of unsupported gameplay practices
* Activity patterns that significantly deviate from those of most Maplers
※ Monitoring includes not only recent activity but also up to 90 days of past gameplay records. Thus, the date of restriction may not align with the date of violation.
※ If multiple policy violations are detected, the most severe violation will determine the penalty.
## **3.** Verification Request for Game Restrictions
If your account is restricted, you may request for verification to clarify or re-investigate by contacting our [Support](https://support.msu.io/hc/en-us) within 90 days from the start of the restriction.
To help us verify your case more quickly and accurately, please include the following information:
1. If you used an unsupported gameplay, describe in detail:
* What program was used
* When it was used
* Any unusual circumstances during gameplay
2. Even if your actions do not exactly match the listed violations,
* Please list any program run alongside MapleStory N or special gameplay conditions.
3. If you played for an extended period while repeating the same input,
* Please describe your skill rotation and repetitive key inputs during gameplay.

## **1. What Are Presets?**
* Presets are a convenience feature that allows you instantly swap between customized loadouts of equipment, skills, and stats.
* This allows you to optimize your character for any situation. For example, you can use Preset 1 for grinding mobs and instantly switch to Preset 2 when you're heading into a boss battle.
## **2. Preset Types**
* Presets are organized under one main Character Preset, which controls several individual sub-presets: Equipment, Hyper Stat, Ability, Maple Legion, Link Skill, and Key Bindings.
* The Character Preset acts as a master control, letting you change all your settings at once. However, each sub-preset can also be managed independently.

* B. Click the arrow button next to any preset to jump directly to its menu.
* C. When you're done, hit the "Save" button to save the configuration to your selected Character Preset slot.
* D. To activate a different loadout, just select another Character Preset from the top and click "Apply." The change is immediate.
* E. You can give each preset a custom name up to 8 characters long (letters and numbers allowed).
* To switch presets on the fly, assign 'Change Preset' to a hotkey in your Key Bindings. Pressing this hotkey will display your presets on-screen; simply press the corresponding number to activate it instantly.

The NFT Collection allows you to register your minted items via the Bind feature to earn Collection Score. As your total score increases and specific sets are completed, you can unlock special Collection Effects.
The NFT Collection is account-based, meaning all Collection Effects apply to every character on your account. Only minted characters can add items to the collection.

Binding refers to registering items from your inventory to the NFT Collection for a set period of time. The longer the bind duration, the higher the Bind Score you will receive.
Using **Bind All**, you can select multiple items via checkboxes to bind them all at once, or re-bind items whose binding duration has expired.
Based on the number of selected items and bind duration, the total score (Base Score + Bind Score) will be displayed at the bottom. Once you confirm, a final confirmation popup will appear.
Once you complete the binding, it cannot be undone until the minimum binding period has elapsed. Please make sure to review all details carefully before proceeding.
※ To bind individual items, drag and drop them from your inventory into the bind slot.

**⑤ Set Equipment**
Set Equipment requires all items within a set to be bound in a single slot to activate the set effect. If even one item’s binding expires, the set effect becomes inactive.
Like regular binding slots, set item slots use border colors to indicate binding progress. You can view an individual item’s binding details by hovering over it.
## **3.** Bind Expiration and Retrieval
Once an item’s bind period ends, it enters an unlocked state and becomes eligible for re-binding or retrieval. Additional Bind Score continues to accumulate based on duration past expiration.
If you wish to retrieve an item before its bind period ends, you can do so up to three times per week at no cost. Once all free retrievals have been used, you may retrieve an item by spending **100,000 Honor EXP**.
※ Retrieving an item will reduce your Collection Score, possibly lowering your Collection Level. If your remaining score is insufficient, retrieval may fail.
※ Items bound for **less than 15 days** **cannot be retrieved** under any circumstances.
# Nickname NFT
## **Table of Contents**
1. **What is a Nickname NFT?**
2. **Changing Your Nickname and Minting an NFT**
3. **Trading Nicknames on the Marketplace**
## **1. What is a Nickname NFT?**
Nickname NFTs transform your character's name into a unique, tradable digital asset.
Unlike traditional nicknames that are bound to a single character, a Nickname NFT is an independent asset you truly own. This means you can hold onto it, swap it between characters, or trade it freely with other Maplers on the Marketplace. Now's your chance to own that cool, rare nickname you've always wanted!
#### On-chain vs. Off-chain Nicknames
* Off-chain Nickname: This is the standard nickname your character uses in-game. It is not an NFT and cannot be traded. Rest assured, no one else can create or mint a nickname identical to your off-chain nickname.
* On-chain Nickname: This is a nickname that has been converted into an NFT through a process called "minting." It's registered as a digital asset on the blockchain, stored safely in your Nickname Inventory, and can be traded on the Marketplace.
## **2. Changing Your Nickname and Minting an NFT**
When you change your character's name, you have the option to convert your old nickname into a tradable NFT. Here’s how it works:
### **2.1. Starting the Nickname Change Process**
1. To begin, head to the character selection screen.
2. Select the minted character whose nickname you wish to change.
3. In the character information window on the right, click the Change Name button.
### **2.2. Choosing a New Nickname**
Next, you'll decide on your character's new name. You have two options: Create New Name or Use Existing Name.
* **Create New Name :** Enter a new name to create a standard, off-chain nickname.
* **Use Existing Name :** Select a Nickname NFT you already own, either from a previous mint or a Marketplace purchase.
### **2.3. Minting Your Current Nickname into an NFT**
This is the most important step: deciding the fate of your current nickname.
This option only appears if your current nickname is an off-chain (non-tradable) name.
* **Mint then Replace :** This option converts your current nickname into a valuable NFT by paying a minting fee. The newly minted NFT will be sent to your Nickname Inventory, ready to be used again later or sold on the Marketplace.
* **Delete then Replace :** This option will permanently delete your current nickname. It will not be converted into an NFT. Choose carefully, especially if your nickname is rare or special, as this action is irreversible.
### **2.4. Final Confirmation**
If you chose to mint your nickname, a final confirmation window will appear showing a breakdown of the fees. Review the details carefully, then press \[Confirm] to proceed.
You can track the minting process in real-time via the on-chain notifier at the bottom-left corner of your screen.
※ Important Notes
* You cannot mint a character's nickname within the first 24 hours after the character itself has been minted.
* Once you change a character's nickname, you must wait 30 days before changing it again.
* Your first nickname change fee is waived if you perform it within 7 days of minting a new character.
* In this case, the 'Change Fee' will be displayed as free. However, However, the 'Minting Fee' for converting your old nickname into an NFT is a separate charge.
## **3. Trading Nicknames on the Marketplace**
Nicknames that have been minted into NFTs can be bought and sold freely on the Marketplace.
For a complete guide on how to list, buy, and manage items, please see our detailed \[[Marketplace Guide](https://docs.maplestoryn.io/msn-101/learn-more/msu-marketplace)].

3. **Performing Star Force Enhancement**
4. **Star Force Enhancement Cost**
## **1. What is Star Force Enhancement?**
Star Force is a system that allows you to further enhance your minted equipment items and upgrading their stats.
Each item can be enhanced up to the number of empty stars (☆) shown at the top of the item tooltip. \
When an enhancement succeeds, a star is filled in as a ★, and the Star Force level of the item increases by +1, boosting its stats.
If enhancement fails, the Star Force level may either stay the same or decrease by -1. \
When the level decreases, the item stats will decrease accordingly.
## **2. Equipment Enhancement: Star Force Enhancement**
You can access Enhancement UI by clicking \[Equipment Enhancement] in the \[NFT ASSETS] at the bottom of the game screen, or by clicking the “ENHANCE” button in your Character Inventory.
 
At the Enhancement UI, **drag-and-drop** or **right-click** the item you want to enhance and register it.
※ Only **minted items** can be enhanced. For more information on item minting, please refer to the [**\[Items Guide\]**](https://docs.maplestoryn.io/msn-101/beginners-guide/item-and-equipment/items).
You can perform Star Force Enhancement, Potential Enhancement, and Bonus Stats Enhancement at the Enhancement UI.

## **3. Performing Star Force Enhancement**
When you start Enhancement, you can choose the desired enhancement type, and select the item you would like to enhance.
Star Force Enhancement consumes **Power Crystals**, and the number of crystals required varies depending on the current Star Force level of the equipment item. \
Additionally, the cost for each stage is **updated every minute** based on enhancement demand.
Before enhancing, make sure to check both the Power Crystals you own and required for the enhancement displayed at the bottom of the UI.
If you do not have enough Power Crystals, click the “**Exchange**” button next to **Owned Power Crystals** to convert your NESO into Power Crystals at a **1:1 ratio.**
※ NESOLET cannot exchanged into Power Crystals. You must first mint your NESOLET into NESO to exchange for Power Crystals.
※ For instructions on how to mint NESO, please refer to the \[[**NESO & NXPC Guide**](/archives/neso-and-nxpc)].
Once everything is ready, click the “Enhance” button to begin the enhancement.
When the enhancement starts, Star Catch will begin. \
If you successfully complete Star Catch, your chance of enhancement success will increase.
Stop the horizontally moving star when it enters the yellow zone to get Star Catch benefit. \
If you prefer not to use Star Catch, you can check “Disable Star Catching” in the Enhancement UI before starting.
※ If Disable Star Catching is on, you will not receive the bonus success rate granted by successful Star Catching.
When enhancement is completed, it may succeed or fail based on the pre-announced probability.
During Star Force Enhancement, there is a chance of a **Major Failure**, starting from 12 Stars and above. In the event of a Major Failure, the Star Force level will drop to 10.
* Between 12 to 17 Star Force level, you can check the Major Failure Prevention checkbox to prevent this from occurring.
* Enabling Major Failure Prevention will increase enhancement cost.
## **4. Star Force Enhancement Cost**
The cost of Star Force Enhancement is determined by unique mechanics of MapleStory N, which is called Dynamic Pricing system. The more demand on enhancement for a specific item group among players occurs, the higher the enhancement cost. The lower the demand for enhancement, the lower the enhancement cost.
You can check the current enhancement cost of the selected equipment in the Required Power Crystals section at the bottom, and you can check the enhancement cost information of the equipment by clicking the “Cost Info” button on the right side of the section.
The enhancement cost refreshes every minute, and you can check the remaining time until the refreshment in the Required Power Crystals section.

4. **Enhancing Skills**
5. **Managing Nodes**
## **1. Overview of 5th Job Skills**
After completing the 5th Job Advancement, you will unlock the V Matrix system.
The V Matrix is a growth system that allows you to equip and enhance powerful new skills by slotting in Nodes.
You can acquire new Nodes by using Nodestones.
Duplicate Nodes aren’t wasted, as they can be used as materials to enhance your existing Nodes and increase their levels.
Enhancing Nodes boosts their effects, allowing you to customize and strengthen your character to fit your playstyle.
Term
Description
V Matrix
A deck-style system for managing your 5th Job skills. It provides slots where Nodes can be equipped to unlock new abilities or enhance existing ones.
Node
Skill items that can be equipped into V Matrix slots. Nodes are categorized into Skill Nodes, Boost Nodes, and Special Nodes.
Nodestone
A resource item used to acquire new Nodes. It can be obtained from field drops in specific areas, boss reward layers, and events.
Node Enhancement
A system for strengthening your Nodes by using duplicates as enhancement material.
## **2. What Is the V Matrix?**
**2-1. How to Equip and Unequip Nodes**
You can find all your acquired Nodes at the bottom of the V Matrix UI.
To equip a Node, simply drag and drop it into an empty slot or double-click it.
To unequip a Node, double-click it in an equipped slot.
New skills unlocked via Nodes will appear in your 5th Job Skill window.
**Note**: You cannot equip multiple identical Nodes at the same time.
### **2-2. Slot Expansion**
You start with 5 slots upon completing your 5th Job Advancement. After that, a new slot unlocks every 5 levels.
You can also spend NESO to unlock up to 2 additional slots early.
**Note**: Slots unlocked early with NESO do not grant extra slots or refunds when you reach the corresponding level. The NESO cost for early unlocking varies by character level.
## **3. Obtaining Nodes**
The primary way to acquire Nodes is by using Nodestones, which can be found through:
* Drops from monsters in specific areas
* Reward layers from certain bosses
* Event rewards
* Trading on the Marketplace
When you use a Nodestone, you will receive one random Node suitable for your character's class.
The Node will be one of three types: Skill, Boost, or Special.
Type
Description
Skill Node
Skill Nodes grant direct access to 5th Job skills. They are categorized as:
Shared Skills: Usable by all jobs.
Class Skills: Shared among Warrior, Mage, Bowman, Thief, or Pirate classes.
Job Skills: Exclusive to a specific job.
Upon the 5th Job Advancement, characters automatically receive 6 Skill Nodes by default: 1 Shared Skill, 1 Class Skill, and 4 Job Skills.
Boost Node
Boost Nodes strengthen your 1st-4th Job skills and Hyper Active Skills. Each Boost Node enhances three randomly selected skills simultaneously. When equipped, their effects are applied automatically as a passive. The enhanced values are displayed in the Skill window. You cannot equip multiple Boost Nodes with the same main skill.
Special Node
Special Nodes grant unique, temporary buffs that activate under specific conditions. All Special Nodes expire 7 days after being acquired. You can only equip one Special Node at a time.
*Extending Special Node Duration
You can extend a Special Node's duration by right-clicking it and selecting EXTEND. This resets its remaining duration to 30 days, consuming Node Shards based on the amount of time added.
## **4. Enhancing Skills**
There are two ways to strengthen your skills in the V Matrix: Slot Enhancement and Node Enhancement.
Enhancing your setup provides powerful benefits, such as increased Final Damage, reduced Skill Cooldowns, and improved damage for 5th Job skills.
**4-1. Slot Enhancement**
This method improves the V Matrix slot itself, boosting the level of any Node placed within it.
* Each slot can be enhanced up to a maximum of Level 5.
* Slot Enhancement requires Matrix Points. Starting at Lv. 200, you will earn 1 Matrix Point per level-up (up to 50 points at Lv. 250).
* The slot's enhancement level is displayed in its bottom-right corner.
* You can reset your spent Matrix Points by paying a NESO fee.
### **4-2. Node Enhancement**
This method strengthens the Node itself by using other Nodes as enhancement material.
* Only Skill Nodes and Boost Nodes can be enhanced; Special Nodes cannot.
* To enhance a Node, right-click it in the V Matrix UI and select "Enhance."
* As a Node’s level increases, more material Nodes are required for the next level.
* If you use an already-enhanced Node as material, its accumulated EXP will be fully transferred.
Type
Description
Skill Node
Can only be enhanced using identical Skill Nodes. The maximum level is 25.
Boost Node
Can only be enhanced using other Boost Nodes that share the same main skill (sub-skills do not need to match). Reaching Lv. 20 and Lv. 40 unlocks powerful bonus effects, such as increased Critical Rate or more enemies hit.
### **4-3. Boost Node Enhancement Tips & Notes**
A single skill can be enhanced up to a maximum level of 60.
A single Node provides a maximum of 30 levels (Lv. 25 from Node Enhancement + Lv. 5 from Slot Enhancement).
Therefore, to reach the Level 60 cap for a skill, you must equip at least two different Boost Nodes that both enhance that same skill.
## **5. Managing V Nodes**
### **5-1. Node Disassembly & Nodecrafting**
Unused or expired Nodes can be disassembled into Node Shards. To do this, enter Disassemble Mode in the V Matrix UI or right-click a Node and select "Disassemble."
You can then use these Node Shards to craft specific Nodes you need, including Nodestones.
| Type | Shards to Craft | Shards from Disassembly |
| ------------ | --------------- | ----------------------- |
| Skill Node | 140 | 40 |
| Boost Node | 70 | 10 |
| Special Node | 250 | 50 |
| Nodestone | 35 | - |
**Note**: When crafting a Boost Node, you select the main skill, while the other two sub-skills are assigned randomly based on set probabilities.
### **5-2. Node Lock**
To prevent accidental disassembly or use as enhancement material, you can lock important Nodes.
Right-click a Node and select "Lock" to secure it.
### **5-3. Node Search**
Use the search bar at the bottom of the V Matrix UI to find specific Nodes.
By using the Boost Node Filter, you can display only the Boost Nodes that enhance the skills you select.
* Selecting “Search Skill 1 as Main Skill” displays all Boost Nodes where Skill 1 is the main skill.
* Selecting skills for Skill 1, 2, and 3 displays only Boost Nodes that contain all selected skills.

5. **Transferring Arcane Symbols**
## **1. Arcane Symbol Overview**
* Arcane Symbols are special pieces of equipment that can be obtained in the regions of the Arcane River.
* Each Arcane Symbol provides your character's Main Stat and a certain amount of Arcane Power.
* Arcane Symbols are untradeable and cannot have Bonus Stats or Potentials.
You can manage your Arcane Symbols by clicking the ‘SYMBOL’ button at the bottom of your Equipment window.
* In the Symbol window, the top section displays your total bonuses to Arcane Power and Main Stat, while the bottom section shows the level, EXP, and enhancement options for each individual Symbol.
* You cannot equip more than one of the same type of Arcane Symbol. To unequip a Symbol, simply double-click it.
## **2. Obtaining Arcane Symbols**
After completing the story quests for each Arcane River region, you can obtain Arcane Symbols through Daily Quests, special Arcane River content, and by hunting monsters.
* When hunting monsters, you will find Arcane Symbols specific to that region.
* Daily Quests are available from NPCs in each Arcane River region.
* Arcane River Special Content: This feature allows you to instantly complete Daily Quests for higher-level Arcane River regions once they become available.
|
※ What are Arcane River Daily Quests?
Completing these quests rewards you with both Arcane Symbols and EXP.
The EXP rewards for each region's Daily Quest can only be claimed once per day, per world.
|
| -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
## 3. Enhancing Arcane Symbol
* Double-clicking an Arcane Symbol in your inventory will cause it to be absorbed by the identical equipped Symbol, granting it EXP.
* Leveling up your Arcane Symbols grants higher amounts of Arcane Power and your Main Stat. The maximum level for an Arcane Symbol is 20.
The number of Symbols and the NESO cost required for enhancement increase with the Symbol's level.
* You can continue to absorb duplicate Symbols to accumulate EXP, even if you do not immediately pay to complete the level-up enhancement.
## **4. Hunting in Arcane Power Fields**
* When you enter an Arcane Power hunting ground, a UI below the minimap will display your character's current Arcane Power versus the required amount for that area.
* If your Arcane Power is lower than the requirement, the damage you deal to monsters will be significantly reduced, and the damage you take from them will be increased.
| **Your Arcane Power vs. Required Amount** | **Damage Taken from Monsters** | **Damage Dealt to Monsters** |
| ----------------------------------------- | ------------------------------ | ---------------------------- |
| 0 \~ 9% | 280% | 10% |
| 10 \~ 29% | 240% | 30% |
| 30 \~ 49% | 180% | 60% |

| 130 \~ 149% | 40% | 130% |
| 150%\~ | 0% | 150% |
* All hunting grounds in the Arcane River require Arcane Power.
* To check the requirement for a specific map, hover your mouse over its icon on the World Map.
## 5. Transferring Arcane Symbols
< Arcane Catalyst>
Arcane Symbols can be transferred to other characters within the same world using Arcane Catalysts
Please note before using Arcane Catalysts:
* Use an Arcane Catalyst from your inventory to convert an Arcane Symbol into an "Unstable Arcane Symbol."
* Please note: You cannot use Arcane Catalysts on equipped Symbols.
* Arcane Catalysts can only be used on Arcane Symbols that are Lv. 2 or higher.
* The Unstable Arcane Symbol will reset to Lv. 1 but will retain all of its accumulated EXP. You can then visit the NPC Spiegelmann in any Arcane River region to move it to your Maple Storage.
* Only characters within the same world who have completed their 5th Job Advancement can claim Unstable Arcane Symbols from Maple Storage.
* Unstable Arcane Symbols sent to your Maple Storage will expire and be deleted after 30 days, so please make sure to claim them within this period.
* To restore an Unstable Arcane Symbol, the receiving character must have completed the corresponding Arcane Symbol quest and must not already have the same type of Symbol equipped or in their inventory.
* Once restored, the symbol becomes equippable again and can be leveled up normally.
* Standard upgrade costs still apply when leveling up the restored Arcane Symbol.
* Once you restore an Unstable Arcane Symbol, that character cannot use another Arcane Catalyst on an Arcane Symbol from the same region for the next 14 days.
Tips:
* Arcane Catalysts cannot be used on the basic Arcane Symbol earned from completing the "A Greater Power" quest.
* Arcane Catalysts cannot be canceled once used. Please double-check before proceeding!

To activate a boost, right-click the raider and consume Legion Coins. The boost lasts for **7 days**.
※ If there is a Block Boost Coupon, it will be used before Legion Coins.

**3-1. Boost Status**
* The number of characters eligible for Block Boost varies by **Legion rank**. You can check how many boosted raiders are currently assigned via the \[Boosted Blocks] panel on the right.

Legion Raids are battles fought using your attack unit. You earn Legion Coins by dealing damage to the boss.

Legion Raids run automatically based on Legion power, even when you're offline. You may also participate manually for faster results.
When your Legion Coins reach the maximum, a notification will appear. The cap depends on your Legion rank.

**4-1. Raid Mechanics**
**① How it Works:** Once started, your Legion attacks the boss dragon automatically. Manual participation increases the rate at which you earn coins.
**② Boss HP:** The boss has two types of HP: regular HP (green) and shield HP (purple). Regular HP can be directly damaged, while shield HP can only be damaged by automatic attacks. Raiders first deal damage to regular HP, and once it is depleted, they begin damaging shield HP. If only shield HP remains, direct attacks will no longer deal damage.
**③ Retreat:** Click \[Retreat] to leave the raid. Earned coins are given upon exit. Raids continue automatically even without your participation.
**④ Coin Accumulation:** Every 10 billion damage dealt grants additional coins. Your total coin earnings are displayed in yellow at the top left of the screen.
**4-2. Legion Raid Weekly Mission**
Through the Dame Appropriation NPC in the village, you can participate in the \[Legion] Weekly Dragon Extermination mission.

# Dynamic Pricing

2. **Dynamic Pricing Dashboard**
3. **Search**
## **1. What is Dynamic Pricing?**
Real-world economic principles apply to item upgrades, with prices fluctuating based on real-time demand and updating every 60 seconds for efficient price discovery.
When many Maplers seek to upgrade a particular item, its upgrade price increases automatically. Less popular items remain more affordable.
This provides strategic gameplay as players can either pursue meta items at higher prices or find value in underutilized items.
Prices are calculated using a specific pricing formula based on demand, and all pricing changes are transparently displayed on the MapleStory N website via the **Dynamic Pricing Dashboard**.
**\[**[**Go to Dynamic Pricing Dashboard**](https://msu.io/maplestoryn/gamestatus/dynamicpricing)**]**
※ The same dynamic pricing system applies to all worlds in MapleStory N.

This section displays the number of enhancement attempts and percentage changes by item group over 1 day and 7 days.
An item group consists of the following aspects, ensuring all grouped items share the same enhancement attributes:
* Equipment level
* Equipment parts
* Equipment types
The main purpose is to consolidate fragmented demand across many individual items into a meaningful scale of demand.
Detailed price information for a specific item can be checked in either of the following ways:
1. Select an item group
2. Search for an item using the “Search” bar
※ The previous day’s data is updated daily at 4:00 AM (UTC +0), and may differ from real-time data.
You can apply filters in the “Enhancement Counts by Item Group” section to narrow the displayed dynamic pricing data:
* **Enhancement Type:** Choose between “Star Force” and “Potential”.
* **Equipment Level:** Set a range between level 0 and 250.

* **Equipment Type:** Select one or more item sets (or “Normal” if not a set) you want to analyze.
After applying filters, you can view the following information:
* **Item Group:** Information of an item, such as item level range, item set, and item part.
* **1D Enhance:** Number of enhancements completed on the previous day

※ Only enhanceable items can be searched on the “Dynamic Pricing Dashboard”.
By clicking on an item, Maplerscan check detailed enhancement information for that item in MapleStory N.
### **3.1. Dynamic Pricing Information**
Maplers can choose between “**Star Force”** and “**Potential”** to view detailed Dynamic Pricing Information:
* Star Force
Choose a step of Star Force enhancement to view the specific dynamic pricing information.
* Potential
Choose a cube type to view dynamic pricing for Potential enhancements.
After setting the enhancement type, Maplers can select the price calculation period – **20 minutes, 1 hour, 1 day, 1 week, or 1 month** – and view the following information:
* **Close Price:** Final price of an item’s enhancement within the set period above
* **Lowest Price:** Lowest price of an item’s enhancement within the set period above
* **Highest Price:** Highest price of an item’s enhancement within the set period above
* **Enhancement Count:** Total number of item’s enhancement within the set period above

4. **Important Notes**
## **1.** **What is the MVP System?**
MVP is a system that converts fees paid within the MapleStory Universe ecosystem into NXPC units to assign ranks, providing various benefits based on your achieved rank.
Your spending is converted into NXPC-denominated points, and a rank from Bronze to Black is assigned based on your total points over the past 13 weeks.
| MVP Status | Rank | Points |
| ---------- | -------- | ---------------------- |
| Non-MVP | Unranked | 0 ≤ Points < 30 |
| MVP | Bronze | 30 ≤ Points < 750 |
| MVP | Silver | 750 ≤ Points < 1,500 |
| MVP | Gold | 1,500 ≤ Points < 3,500 |
| MVP | Diamond | 3,500 ≤ Points < 7,000 |
| MVP | Black | 7,000 ≤ Points |
MVP points are calculated based on spending across the MapleStory Universe ecosystem. The following activities count toward your points:
* Content fees and purchases related to MapleStory N
* Power Crystal purchases, Arcane Symbol enhancement, and more
* MSU Marketplace trade fees
* Buyer-attributed MSU Marketplace transaction fees (5% applied to FEE)
* MSU Web Shop purchases
Your MVP points are calculated every Thursday at 00:00 (UTC+0). However, if you meet the point threshold for the next tier during the week, your rank will be upgraded instantly!
※ Note: The MSN MVP system is integrated with the broader MapleStory Universe. The rank tiers and calculation logic follow the overarching MSU MVP System.
※ For more details on rank conditions and the overall ecosystem, please refer to the \[[MSU MVP System](https://docs.msu.io/welcome-to-msu/mvp-system)] guide.
