kMSt ver. 1.2.408 – Adventurer and Cygnus Reorganization!
The second reorganization for Warriors, Archers, Magicians, Knights of Cygnus, and Ultimate Adventurers has come! Well, it’s not really a reorganization, almost every single change is just a damage increase. I guess it’s okay because they just had their Jump update, but even Cygnus and Ultimate Adventurers received only one or two new skills… very underwhelming.
In addition, Lionheart Castle has been reorganized! Maybe there will be another area that is changed in the next update, as Ellin Forest was renewed in the first patch. Also, hints of a new job? Read on!

Now about Knights of Cygnus, the first skill quest has been changed to level 90 and the second has been changed to 100.
In addition, many storyline quests have been added that go from level 110 to 120! These have to do with with the new (well, old) boss added for Knights of Cygnus, it’s Akyrum! He can be challenged in a party of more than one person. These quests send you to investigate both the Ludibrium and the Temple of Time, and you talk with NPCs involved in the Cross Hunter as well, just to add a bit of continuation~
Ultimate Adventurers also receive a couple of new quests at level 50 to start them off.
Nett’s Pyramid: Hard Mode was changed. The HP of the monsters has been lowered.
And until December 14, Nett’s Emeralds can be traded in for Union Immortal Pharaoh items! You can get the Union Immortal Pharaoh’s Belt (3 to all stats, 60 def and mdef, 2 attack and magic attack, 3 slots, level 80, untradeable, can be traded once with the Scissors of Karma), the Union Immortal Pharaoh’s Shoes (4 to all stats, 55 def and mdef, 5 speed and jump, 5 slots, level 80, untradeable), and the Union Immortal Pharaoh’s Ring (2 to all stats, 150 HP and MP, 1 attack and magic attack, level 80, untradeable, time limited).
These items have a set bonus of 3 all stats, 120 avoid and accuracy with 2 items and 5 attack and magic attack, 200 defense and magic defense, and 5 all stats with 3 items.
Zakum is now instanced, meaning any number of people can enter in one channel!
Lionheart Castle has undergone a reorganization, it is now a theme dungeon for anyone level 110 and over! Many new quests have been introduced alongside the existing ones. The NPC Beast, from the Cross Hunter quests, asks you to survey the quiet castle. If you finish the quest line, you can receive a Mystery Mastery Book and other special scrolls (70% scrolls for one-handed/two-handed weapons for attack/magic attack, they give 1 to all stats and 2 attack or magic attack, if failed they destroy the item)!
Also, for a limited amount of time, enhanced versions of the Van Leon weapons will be sold in the token shop! They have higher stats, come unidentified, and are Epic on reveal! The set bonuses are the same.
There are a couple of new events, including a redo of the Advance of the Union Celebration event and a new one called the Little Indian event (nice name…), where you enter a raid save a Native American (the correct term!) from monsters.
Also, double clicking Royal Hair and Face Coupons inside the Cash Shop will change your character and give you a preview of what hairs/faces you can get~
In the regular server, two new events have begun! The first is called Love’s Chocostick, based off the popular Pepero Day in Korea! It runs from November 10 to November 16.
Each day, you receive 2 Love’s Chocosticks that give 11 to all stats, 11 speed and jump for 30 minutes and 2 Love Sharing Chocosticks which give you 1.5x experience for 1 hour (expires in 7 days)!
On November 12, there will be the Chocostick Weekend Special Hot Time! The prize this time is the Chocostick Weekend Special Medal, which gives 2 to all stats, 50 HP and MP, and 1 attack and magic attack. On weekends however, it will give an extra 4 to all stats, 150 HP and MP, 2 attack and magic attack, 30 defense, magic defense, accuracy, and avoid! It lasts for 60 days.
The second is the 6th annual Star Star Festival event! I really like this event because the prizes are really good! It runs from November 10 to November 20~
Basically, you log in and receive a book from Cassandra. Hold the book for 40 minutes and you’ll receive a Star Stamp! Now, collect many of these Star Stamps, because they’re what you use to trade in for prizes on the website! Some of them are even things you can collect in real life! However, there’s a limited amount of each prize and its first come first serve. They each open at different times.

Finally, my fellow blogger shakar96 was keen enough to spot something in the Lionheart Castle quests, new job IDs! They correspond to the Thief Hero! Is it coming soon? What kind of weapons will it use? What will be the storyline? So many questions to be answered!
Orange Mushroom's Blog 
These updates make me oddly disappointed.
So DrK’s can now attack at a (6) speed, but Paladin’s who use Blunt Weapons still don’t attack Fast.
And why…not just 100% stance?
Regardless, I guess it’s better than before.
Thanks for posting, Max~
Ou, Thief Hero. Too bad I’ve never played a Thief.
doesn’t pally still hit faster than drk even if their wep speed is slow? anyways, i feel ya, stance should just be 100% already. mech get it right away with no effort at all, so i dont get why warriors cant get 100% stance when they have to work and buy the damn skill books.
Dark knights have had (6)speed for a while -Arcglaives (6) normal. Purple Surf Board (5) fast.
As for stance, Ive no idea .. weirdo nexon’s.
nice cant w8 for this to hit gms
Oh wow, Soul Rush for warriors? A waste of a hog then! 😦
I originally thought the damage to Blizzard was a typo from another site I checked, but it appears to be Nexon’s typo. :p It seems Blizzard will now be the strongest ultimate, in terms of initial damage at least. The DoT from Meteor should keep it on top…not that we’d ever use them outside of farming for equips or training at LHC.
Oh well, this has to be the worst update for mages since Big Bang (at least this time we know it’s going to suck…and no, I’m not talking about the cooldown for ultimates, I actually liked that).
Well, I have a feeling we’ll get a real buff soon. At least I’m hoping so.
Isn’t the physical training for thieves.
+30 Dex and Luk Instead of +30 Str and Dex?
Cause form Fiel’s extraction’s it says so.
피지컬 트레이닝:
New Skill
New – Name (피지컬 트레이닝)
New – Description (신체 단련을 통해 영구적으로 LUK과 민첩성을 향상시킨다.)
New – Level readout (영구적으로 LUK #lukX, 민첩성 #dexX 증가)
New – Max level (10)
New – Info (type = 50)
New – lukX (30) (3*level)
New – dexX (30) (3*level)
Ooh, my bad, I just copy pasted from the ones before xD
Hmm the changes aren’t as impressive as the Union Patch
Since rush was lowered to 2nd job, shouldnt they like add a new skill for all warriors O_O?
Wow thief hero +_+ now all we need is a pirate hero F3
They didn’t move it, its just that in Korean, the name of the new ‘Soul Rush’ skill is Rush, and the actual Rush (move monsters around) skill can be translated in different ways, it just so happens that GMS translated it as Rush xD
I See~ my bad
Was hoping for new skills T-T all they did was just improve the damage and skills. Oh well better than nothing.
So Bishops get 2 +Crit skills? o:
Yup.
Max, what do you mean by Zakum being an instanced boss?
Instead of 1 party per channel its unlimited now.
Oh that’s friggin amazing! They should do this to all the bosses in Maple D:
It would make GMS such a better placel; no more DC Hacking for a spot :{
Yeah, they should. At least for the “raid bosses” (Zakum, Horned Tail, Pink Bean, Empress Cygnus).
Oh carp baskets, I can see Skillbooks and Helmets dropping in price.
With the new skill that comes to UE, does that mean that only NEW UE get that skills, or do all UE get it. Not entirely sure, because of the way u phrased it. Please answer 🙂
I think everyone gets it, its not like they would give a skill that everyone should get to only newly created ones.
*sigh* I’m disappointed in the reorganization. They thought increasing Self Recovery’s heal by 20 HP is going to make an impact? *facepalm* Someone get the monkeys out of there and let the pandas do it. Now a 95% Stance rate? *sigh* Just give us the last 5%. Hero is going to end up really sucking because we have such pitiful defensive measures. All-damage classes aren’t really that good.
as a HERO you are DISSAPOINTED? 0.o we get
75% *3 increase in IS
15% enrage Crit
New Movment skill
5% Stance (w/ CO we get 99%) AND MY PERSONAL FAVORITE
20 sec more darkness on bosses. SO PERMA 125% on bosses now, currently we have 112.5% due to CA only being on 50% of the time
so yea, im pretty happy with this patch
It probably isnt the thief hero. In i believe the chaos patch, the dual blade was recruited by the 2 heroes at the time, aran and evan, to join the fight and be a hero.
Dual Blade is an Adventurer. And If it isn’t a Thief Hero? Why are there new Job ID’s?
According to the patterns, any class wit ha ‘2’ in front and has 4 digits is a hero.
The Dual Blade is still a special Explorer like the Cannon Shooter.
That post just leaks stupid… Lol.
Wow all they did you increase % LOL… dumb. I am not making an adventurer 🙂
OMG FINALLY THIEF HERO I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOREVER I ALWAYS CHECK YOUR BLOGS AND FINALLY SOME NEWS ABOUT IT. THANKS SHAKAR AND MAX!!!!
o.o… why is everyone being so… negative towards this patch…? i mean, correct me if im wrong, but doesn’t 98% of the maple community go for damage? and now that nexon buffed everyone up, everyone is complaining…? hmm… odd.
anyways, I like it so far. I mean, yeah, noting really new or big, but hell, its still something. I mean, we cant expect to have a new skill EVERY TIME a reconstruction comes up can we? As far as I am concern, since the union patch, maple has been pretty balance (except thieves and pirates still need fixing tho), but with this addition – i just see positive as EVERYONE is buff.
so… +1 to nexon o.o
Because there were barely any changes, especially compared to the changes that Evans, Arans, and Resistance received in the last revamp. Evans became almost 3.5 times stronger. Now compare that to F/Ps, who really didn’t get much of a buff since their main bossing skill is already severely hampered by the damage cap. The only change is now people with even less funding will hit the damage cap more easily.
The only reason Nexon is buffing all the classes is to make them on par with Mercedes and Demon Slayer, though it appears they forgot about that already.
Think about it this way: less funding required to deal high damage -> rich kids are at a disadvantage -> less annoying pricks going around kill-stealing for the heck of it.
Is there any change for Ultimate Strafe for Marksmen?
It was indicated in the patch notes, but I think they may have forgotten to add it in the data since it wasn’t changed at all.
“Every Ultimate Adventurer now receives a new skill when created (depending on the class): Mihail’s Soul, Oz’s Flame, Irena’s Storm, Ickhart’s Darkness, or Hawkeye’s Lightning (each summon lasts for 80 seconds and does 90% damage, there is a max level of 10, every 15 levels one skill point will be added in the skill)” does this mean we can summon our cygnus job instructor?
no i think it means that it summons those little orbs. that follow you
No (although that would be really cool), it’s those sprite thingies~
hey max does this mean for UA we can summon our cygnus job instructors ?
hey max does this mean Ultimate Adventures can summon their cygnus job instructors ?
So does that mean bishops get like 80% critical? Thats sounds kinda strange.
It’s not strange If It’s Nexon. Btw, It’s 75%. You get 5% Normally + 40 from Critical + 30 from the Magic Crit.
Yea i was calculating in my critical ring.
Okay… wild hunters get their wild vulcan to 270% but bowmasters get their hurricane to 250%…? O= !
wild vulcan has a slower fire rate
No, it’s the same rate. And Wild Hunters got Advanced Final Attack too.
the reason is that Bm has spirt link that grant them 15% extra
250% x 1.15 =287.5% and it still stronger than wh
ok thanks for the help
They have Feline Berserk too
Guys, this patch sucks!! No one realized that Holy Symbol is getting nerf by giving 40% EXP Bonus instead of 50%? :S
Guys, this patch sucks!! No one realized that Holy Symbol is getting nerf by giving 40% EXP Bonus instead of 50% and will last less? :S
…wow. the skill is going to have the same bonus with a lowered master level so that bishops can max magic critical…the max effect of skills are never reduced when a mastery level is decreased unless stated with the skill change..
look to southperry it says
X=(50–>40) means exp% lol.!
wow still don’t like this they should have lowered coma’s cooldown to like 10 seconds come on mercedes has an skill more powerfull than coma and only has 10 secs cooldown
You mean Panic. Coma is the spammable one.
Max,did Enhanced Spirit’s Power apply to UA’s spirit or only knight of Cygnus’ spirit ?
Just to the Cygnus character I think, considering the levels you get points in it.
It’s only under the Nobeless job, so it’s only for Cygnus Knights.
Disappointed…
Though I like the fact that there was an update, I’m a tad disappointed in what cygnus knights got. For blaze wizards, wtf? -.-” that wasn’t that good of a change at all…
It’s kinda disappointing to see mostly damage increase. Can’t wait for the thief hero though.
Couldn’t expect much from this. They basicly slightly enhanced something that was already just enhanced. Couldn’t expect very much from this revamp. Now lets see what the do to pirates and theifs -thumbs up-
At the Star Star Festival prizes, shouldn’t it be
500k Nexon Cash: 40 stamps, 8 people
500k Maple Points: 40 stamps, 8 people
instead of
50k Nexon Cash: 40 stamps, 8 people
50k Maple Points: 40 stamps, 8 people
Jeez I REALLY hope this gets fixed up in the official servers
Mechanics, arans, dual bladers, Mercedes, and demonslayers all get a rush skill before 4th job and yet they still don’t realize that regular warriors deserve them too if they want to be ‘balanced
Stance applies to this as well, mechanics and demonslayers having stance at lvl 1, and at 100% too! -_____-
Soul rush was a nice add, but I really think nexon prioritize balancing stance and rush first
Not to mention that stance for mechanics and demonslayers are passive, so no need to worry about rebuff or getting stance dispelled
At least they could make stance 100% as well too
-.-
I was hoping that Stance would be lowered in class and increased to 100% because let’s face it, we have a HORRIBLE Stance skill. Mechs and Slayers get it 100% from a passive, and Battle Mages get it 90% resist at the max level of 10. We still put 30 SP into a skill that other classes get cheaper and with other goodies. The only way this could be worse would be if we had a bootleg version like Buccs and Mages (who don’t really deserve it in the first place).
They should really make Enrage a toggle skill. It gets a tad tedious right-clicking it everytime when I’m going through my pq runs after finishing the boss stages like 30+ times.
How is Coma a new skill? I thought Dawn Warriors already had the skill.
YESSS
AND RIGHT WHEN I WAS PLANING TO MAKE A UA TOO!!!!!
SO MUCH WIN C:
are star stamps tradable? if they were thats like getting a free macbook…
Nope, they don’t appear in game, only on the website.
so you could just leave your id logged on on the website during the entire day? or is there a limit to star stamps per day
Nooo, you collect the stamps in game but they only show up on the website. And yeah you can only get 5 stamps per day, but if you miss stamps for some days you can always catch up.
finally gave BW telemastery… but they gave all the other jobs crit D: and made gears even more useless… also WA are super op. 48% heal+ mortal blow… that is toooooooooo much
blaze wizards got shafted they always do…
In gms it would not , because people don’t waste nx on SOK xD.
Wild hunter’s wild vulcan 270% while bowmaster’s hurricane 250%? -__-
Look at post #44. The one under Alilatias’s post.
Max, can you confirm if Holy Symbol is going to be 40% Exp Bonus now?
Do they get rid of cool down on blizzard and other ultimates?
Nope, that would be horrible!
No It wouldn’t, you slut. Before Pre-BB, Mages were the OPs. Now It’s almost every class. Except Mages.
So you want map raiders to return and extort you out of your map?
The whole point of an ultimate is to deal massive burst damage, not consistently high damage; there’s no point in having any other attacks that way.
lmfao at what he said 😀 I;m fine with ultimates 😛 mages are at least mid tier now 😀
Do they get rid of cool downs on ultimates?
Nope.
Lightning Charge has a 60^ chance to stun for 2 seconds, <<< wrongly typed? should be 60%
Ah, fixed ^^
Thanks
This is Just Bullshyt…. Everything is so one-sided… none are fair… for example Bowman’s Skill… They give better skill to BM than to XBM…. and Warriors.. they becoming more agile?!… Magician’s…. Bishop is just disappointing… compared to IL and FP….and KOC… is just too sad….
WHAT THE HELL IS NEXON THINKING?… the rebalancing is just making all the job similar… what is the fun in that?….
This is really disappointing…. really disappointing…. Nexon, nexon…. i hope you and your mindless uncreative team would do better than this crap…. (dun be so one-sided)
by the way, thanks max for the post…. Quite disappointing and one-sided…
How come Dark Genesys has the same damage % as Genesys but Genesys can hit twice? This is hardly a balance if you ask me
Well BaMs are much stronger than Bishops anyways, I don’t think one skill with a 30 second cooldown is that unbalanced.
bishes so weak then? can u explain power difference plz >.<

OMGG! How weak are us!? i rhnik bishes much more powerful
Max i was just like concerning myself with a fact from Legends ik its kinda liek back there but do u get enough Character slots for each character? i was trying to find the post that said so and i only found one and i kinda find it mean if u wont bcuz of skill link and the event thingy upcoming in GMs where u can get stuff for a Cannon shooter. What u get it and u dont use it?
Well if you get the 2 free character slots we got (1 from logging in, 1 from Hot Time) and you have one free slot then you’ll have enough space for all 3! 🙂
Sorry I don’t understand your second question? :S
Oh Thx and its ok 😀
Great, what kind of stupid buff did Marksman get? Almost nothing compared to BM and WH.
I believe the patch notes said something about Ultimate Strafe recieving a buff too, but it wasn’t in the data, so…
Nexon hasn’t done anything right in this revamp yet. They made Evans ridiculously overpowered, possibly to the same level as Mercedes and Demon Slayer if not outright surpassing them, yet everyone else has only recieved small buffs in comparison.
Before Evans were revamped, the strongest mage class were F/P mages. All Nexon did to F/P mages in this revamp was strengthen their attacks, which usually only hit once – which doesn’t help the F/P archmages who can already hit the damage cap with Mist Explosion, for example. Yet Evans recieved a speed and damage increase in their revamp, and the main Evan skills are mostly multi-hit skills, which means they aren’t limited by the damage cap like F/P archmages already were.
I mean, Evans really, REALLY needed help before this revamp (I think they were the weakest mage class except for Bishops since their release), but man, did they go too far.
And holy hell, Battle Mages. Almost as weak as Bishops in single target. Battle Mages are one of the strongest mobbing mages… Except Evan is now in theory stronger than them at that too.
This says it all for Adventurer mages as of now:

And Evan and Battle Mages:

Then there’s this archer revamp. Mercedes is STILL overpowered.
Archer single target rankings:
– 1st: Mercedes
– 2nd: Wild Hunter
– 3rd: Bowmaster
– 4th: Marksman/Crossbow Master
Archer mobbing rankings:
– 1st: Marksman/Crossbow Master
– 2nd: Mercedes
– 3rd: Wild Hunter
– 4th: Bowmaster
Yeah, you know something is still wrong when Mercedes still ranks high in both categories. Mercedes is still better than the other archers at everything except for mobbing VS Crossbow Masters.
This says it all for Archers as of now:
http://www.southperry.net/showthread.php?t=50733
And that’s not counting the situation with the other classes that -aren’t- archers (when comparing their damage output and versatility to Mercedes and Demon Slayer).
It would have been far easier to just slap Mercedes and Demon Slayer with the nerf bat and then revamp Thieves and Pirates immediately afterwards.
Whoops, I forgot Battle Mage mobbing.

Feline berserk give 20% attack with only 30 secs cd in between…
sucks!!!! Nexon should add few new skill for them to balance up with Cannon Shooter , Mercedes and Demon Slayer
It’s still not even halfway through the month yet; I’m hoping there’s still more to come.
note
Nexon did say the legends would be completed by the end of 2011
so we still need a pirate legend
im not sure if they have time to complete all that by the end of the year
Max
I did redeem Maple Point 10k form the Star Festival but I didnt receive it
Do you know why?
That thing has CoolDown
Log in to this site:

It will tell you how many stamps you have (the first line under your info at the side). Select the thing you want and get it, and click on all the orange buttons.
THEN, click on the ‘쿠폰함’ button next to your info and click on the button next to the date. Only then you’ll receive it.
Lol, actually the Maple Points/Nexon Cash won’t be distributed until November 22/23, it says that at the bottom. You don’t need to do any of that ^ (unless you want to buy another prize, one that is an actual item to be specific)
So I just need to wait till NOV 22/23 and it will automatically put into my acc? right =D
Thx for answering my question
Yup 🙂
Can’t wait until thief legend.
For all the complaints about classes being overpowered, the real problem is that they’re not powerful enough. Like how squishy ranged classes can’t tank even a single hit from later bosses due to the ungodly combination of low hp, set damage, boss attack power being set to OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAND and those marathon bosses not being killable quickly enough for the squishy classes to survive. Also magic guard not being toggle-able and getting debuffed. Things like that show that most classes just aren’t powerful enough to warrant having the stamina of a guy who hasn’t gotten any for months and is about to explode. In other words, the squishy ranged classes should do FAR MORE damage in order to justify their surviving only until bosses attack. However, because of the community masochists that want to ruin the game for those who don’t enjoy poop socking, there are bosses like Cygnus which DESTROY FUCKING EVERYCLASS. Even the Mercedes that solo’d Bean probably had hundreds, if not thousands, of real life dollars (well, the korean equivalent of it) pumped into it for pimptastic gear. Ultimately, classes need survivability improvements as much as they need moar damage.
Having to choose between boring yet practical or awesome yet impractical is part of the problem with Maple. Classes should be different, of course, but not when it comes to survivability. Except for Paladins. They should be nigh invulnerable since defense is their thing. But the rest should still be able to survive more than one hit from a boss. And these damage improvements do nothing to remedy that problem. Where damage really counts, at bosses, it’s still not much of an improvement when most of the improved classes STILL can’t survive without significant funding due to their damage still being too low to ravage bosses before they die.
So yeah, crap update is crappy. Except for the Warrior Adventurer Stuff.
How come Dark Knights don’t get a boost in Rush and Power stance? They are still 90% chance of resist and 250% rush..? And man they should have changed Dark Impale to mob 8 instead of 6 alrddy..
Its for all warriors
This patch is extremely disappointing… at least to the adventurer mages and bowmen. Pales in comparison to the buffs for Resistance, Aran and Evan.
Nexon can never balance anything >.>
tsk tsk
I’ve got to say this; people are overexpecting.
Aran and Evan have had a revamp, namely the changes with chaos – Nexon’s theory : skillset revamp + powerbalance = revamp.
Same goes for the Archadventurers; warriors, mages and archers – they have had a skillset revamp with Jump!/Ascension, together with number tweaks, now they were pressed away a second numbertweak ought to suffice.
KoCs got the same changes the others got – keep in mind NWs and TBs are going to get a second go at being revamped.
There’s only one party able to complain; the Resistance – with the only not-only-tweak changes being an Aura revamp for BaMs and a new jag for WH’s; and they got their part of BB-style skills when they were MADE.
What I want to state is this : Nexon works in a pattern –
They’re releasing those overall revamps monthly to have as much as possible time for the big Thief/Pirate revamp.
They’re only tweaking classes that have had their skillset revamped already.
period.
This.
Except Aran and Evan got revamped three times over the past year. Chaos skillset revamp + Legend skillset revamp + Union power balance/skillset revamp.
People are complaining because this phase so far doesn’t go anywhere near matching the standard of the first phase, especially when it comes to Evans, which might as well be considered their third skillset revamp this year due to their attack speed just about doubling.
KMS does whatever the hell they darned please, except they never seem to find a good balance with the classes in the long run. Trying to discern a pattern about it is unwise.
I’m far from disceting what they’re doing – it’s rather clear.
Evan and Aran got, alltogether, a skillset revamp pretty much worth of competing with the Jump revamp (in amount of new and switched skills), and now they’re being tweaked (where I count attack speed change as tweak) to being on par with DS, Merc and CS (although the latter is weaker than the former two.)
Also, KMS is pretty clear in this, in my opinion ; they haven’t done much for the classes in this patch so far that isn’t numberwizardy – even with the map revamps, they can’t possibly have taken so much time and come up with so little change – they must have invested that time in something else, and it appears to me the target is rather obvious; pirates and thieves.

Nostalgic classes with brand new skills my ass -_-
That translation was made by Alvarna and has always been wrong, it’s quite literally made up except for the thief/pirate part.
Does anyone know if you can have multiple summons (Phoenix+Storm)? If not, then bowmen got jipped because there’s no reason we would have Storm out over Phoenix esp. with Spirit Link. Also, does the HP absorb from Wind Piercing apply to UA bowmen? If so, then Drain Arrow is useless… which is fine, I guess…

Yes you can 🙂
And I don’t know if it was carried over or not, sorry :S
Thanks!
Sry for dbl post…
I didn’t see anyone address the storage issues with UE / UA. Did they bump up the amount of inventory slots?
They shouldn’t have started cygnus knights or maple episode 2 and they should just stick to how it was. Now lots of patching and balancing just to make it worst.
I was like W.T.F when i saw the skill changes for bishops OTL
Ohmygosh, we’ve been using AR and BB since the 4th job era and it’s still going on. Why can’t they freaking make some new 4th job skills for us bishops?! fuuu
I’m disappointed.. Can anyone tell me where do i write my feedback to KMS branch? -.-”
Amazing, I want to get Decent SE on my 161 Bishop now for 95% Critical Rate.
Big Bang level 30: 110% Critical Rate? FTW?
LOLOL.
No one uses Big Bang, the f*ck are you talking about..
I only used SP on it by accident, because I thought back then it could come in handy.
But it s*cks, especially now that Angel Ray goes from 450%x2 on 5 monsters to 420%x3 on 6 monsters.
Althought the added Critical Rate of 15% on Big Bang is still nice, and it has 330%x5 on 10 monsters.
(Wish they removed charge-time and added a small delay like with Boomerang Step, so mages could use Chain Lightning/Paralyze/Angel Ray in between, just like Shadowers use Savage BIow or Band of Thieves in between Bsteps).
Also, we already gained Holy Magic Shell, Holy Focus, Arcane Aim and Shining Ray gained a new animation, Holy Symbol gained more time that it’s active, although MP cost is increased.
You do know 75% Critical Rate as a base Critical Rate and an extra +25% Minimum Critical Damage is WAY OP’ed for a Bishop, right?

You forgot that what i mentioned was attacking skills goddamit. Don’t you feel bored shooting dumb angel rays whole day? ok it’s fine abt BB if you dont use it , i mean they at least gave some now attcking skills to the other arch mages and we’re just left out…. AGAIN
1)Lol BBP > No new attacking skills
2)CHaos > Fail .
3) Jump > sigh , read 1)
4)Union > *facedesk*
