Custom Changes

[Arnah]

While Phoenix tries to provide you MapleStory like you previously remembered, Phoenix does have custom changes to attempt to make it a more enjoyable experience.

Depending on when the most recent patch was, this post might be deliberately missing changes while players discover the changes.

This thread is not considered completed.
