Just about every MMORPG has an economic system which keeps players busy trying to make game money to purchase items in the marketplace or from other players that will aid them in surviving the hostile world. A good currency system balance can make or break games, and MapleStory has a good plan on how to keep things stable.

There are two types of currencies in MapleStory. the first is the Mesos, or regular cash which can be found within the game, and then there's the NEXOS cash which can be acquired by paying real money. Both of these currencies have special uses, so listen up.

Mesos is used to purchase regular equip-able items and consumables such as health items that will replenish your life. It can be acquired from slain monsters, by selling items, or by completing quests. In short, this is the reward for hard grinds that you'll do either alone or with a party.

If you want to look different and get the netter gear that the game has to offer, NEXOS Cash is the way to go. There's a special way and place where you can get the NEXOS-only gear, and you must replenish your account to do so. The game offers very safe transaction methods, so don't worry about a thing if you wish to go for this loot.

Hairstyles, plastic surgery, special equip-able items, and more can be mixed and matched for maximum customization. What's more, you can sell this stuff to other players for good sums of Mesos if you need some. Either way, it all works out.
