Mesos are a type of currency in “MapleStory.” Players can use Mesos only to buy items and equipment from non-player characters in the towns or to use the various means of transportation in the game. To purchase anything from the Cash Shop, players must use the NX currency, which they must buy with real world money. A character gains Maplestory Mesos from killing monsters, and players can transfer them to another character.
