Maplestory Justice Update!
It is confirmed, the next update is called MapleStory Justice! The new Thief and Pirate images look very cool! But who is that character in the middle?
On December 15, the Beginning of the Counterattack, the Thief and Pirate update will be released. And even more exciting, on December 29, the Phantom (Thief hero) will be released! On January 12, a new town called Aswan will be released~
One by one, the Black Mage’s army has been making themselves known, spreading the dark forces of their master. Through the catastrophe and chaos, through the misunderstanding and distrust, the reborn thieves and pirates will emerge spectacularly! And at the same time, another hero will be shaking the Maple World, freeing towns from the grasp of the Black Mage!
The trailer has been uploaded, as well as a commentary about its skills! Like always, thanks to Spadow! Please look past the cut for it~
This is the trailer! Subtitles thanks to Spadow~ Just press the CC button to see them!
At the climax of the 2011 Spring update, the classes whose names were the only things left unchanged! The Thief and Pirate return, stronger than ever!
Starting at 3:00 in this video, it begins to talk about the Thief Phantom. I will be talking about this part of the video, so looking at the skills may help you understand!
Phantom is one of the five heroes sealed by the Black Mage. Hundreds of years ago, he was a famous thief, he even deliberately left traces to people who did not even know he was there. The people called him the Phantom.
Due to the death of a close friend, he went on the path of the hero. He fought with the others and sealed away the Black Mage, but just as they were frozen in ice, so was he. And now he is revealed! With a triumphant smile, confident attitude, and the elegance of the past, he fights to defend the Maple World!
Phantom has high evasion and critical chance! It is a combination of the Thief concept and many unique skills and system~ His weapon is a new one, called the Cane, and the secondary Cards. Attacking monsters grants you more Cards and you can then use more skills!
This is the home of Phantom, the air ship Crystal Garden! It was the ship shown in Inkwell’s Secret Diary! It looks really nice! Those are the NPCs in the ship that help out Phantom.
When creating a Phantom character, you have a choice between two faces and two hairs. The top are for males and the bottom are for females.
This is the Phantom‘s mount! A car? He’s so cool!
The talent of the Phantom Thief is that he can use skills from other characters in the same map! How exciting~ He enters Steal Mode and chooses a character to take a skill from. The Cane then turns into a weapon from that class!
Phantom uses something called the Card Stack, and every critical attack recovers cards! When the Card Stack is full, you can use the skill Judgement, which consumes all the cards in the stack and chooses a random card and gives you a buff that corresponds to that card!
This skill is super cool, its called Phantom Shroud and allows Phantom to quickly move around the map without being hit! You just need to press the arrow keys in the direction you want to go in!
This skill, called Soul Steal, allows Phantom to steal buffs from a monster! In the video you can see he takes the Armor buff from Ani!
These series of skills are called Breeze Cart, Phantom Charge, and Twilight! They connect with each other~
This skill is called Ultimate Drive, it pours consecutive attacks on the monsters in front of you.
Tempest of Cards is a skill with a gradually increasing range!
Phantom also comes with a skill called Return of Phantom, which lets you return to Crystal Garden. He also has a Link Skill! It’s called Deadly Instinct, and it passively increases your critical chance.
On January 12, a new area will be added. This is the underground city that disappeared, Aswan. It was rumoured that a ghost haunts the town, so no one went there.
This is the Black Mage’s Army’s General, Hilla. Hilla is the one who controls Aswan, will Maplers have to fight her?
Content that affects the entire account will be added! For example, a world-wide Link Skill!
There will be simultaneous cooperation and competition between worlds! With both old and new methods of battle! Experience special benefits~
Finally, there will be a Map Navigation system, where you can choose where you want to go and the game will guide you there! There’s also a Simulation system that uses your characters. Finally, bosses like Zakum, Horntail, and Van Leon will become instanced!
I’ll try to add in some information about Phantom’s storyline and Aswan’s storyline tomorrow~!

omg, cant wait for it
That MAPLE theory is really cutting it close.
Very nice! Can’t wait to see the videos :D.
Mercedes
Aran
Phantom
L
Evan
:OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ive never knew about that
So many mouths:oooooo
L is for Luffy.
YES!!! xD
Luffy for pirate LOL
Pirate King Luffy :]
Luffy sucks, needs a better name.
No, you suck ya asshat, Luffy is an awesome name, dont fuck with the KaizokuOh
Luffy sucks tho
What about Lucifer?
sir you are awesome!
L is for Lotus.
I remember something about “Lotus” in the Demon Slayer story line.
A demon slayer is not a Hero.
I know. The character “Lotus” is not the Demon Slayer. He is his brother (I think). Could be the Legend, who knows?
Actually, the Pirate Hero is the opening and closure to the Black Mage concept. His name is Testonen and he is Kyrin’s father. Here is the video that Nexon made back in 2008 when Pirates first came out:
Besides, wouldn’t common sense say that Demon Slayer guy’s brother would have to somehow be 500 years old?
@2kleaves not to be racist or stereotype or anything like that but testonen is black but kyrin is white O_O?
he is a warrior!
to nyjetsfan11
Testonen is black yes, but as seen in the forest of poison haze, her mother is white, so I guess she got the whitness from her mother, maybe she had a black brother…
Uhm… Lotus is a bad character who works for the black mage, not a good guy.
Lotus is one of the Black Wing Generals noob. She’s the one who holds the weird rabbit weapon and has pigtails. The L is for Luminous, which has been released in KMS, and is sadly a magician Hero, like Evan.
inb4 Leviathan
holy shit dude
Mercedes
Aran
Phantom
Legendary
Evan
Demon Slayer. Theory ruined.
Demon Slayer is not a maple legend, he is a Resistance classed hero, who failed to kill the black mage, due to his lust for revenge after his close friend was killed. He was not sealed in ice, he was sealed inside an egg, and hes is a warrior. He is not a legend, demon slayer was evil to begin with as a black mage general.
The real pirate legend is Luffy, unfortunate for the name.
wrong, Demon Slayer was an ex-general of the black mage, the other generals was planning a attack on leafre, where Demon Slayer’s family live in, the black mage promised not to destroy leafre, but once he got to leafre, it was in ruins, his family was slaughtered, thats how he wanted to take revenge
Luffy is a fake name. The MAGICIAN Hero, which has already been released in KMS, is Luminous. A magician who uses a balance of Light and Dark spells.
Maple is what thy spell making a charicters name start with an L ha maple Canada and nexon I already know lol ima creep out the people in Canada’s maplestory befor it comes out lol what if I did it the day be for it comes and the next day they be all wtf he was right

Video is on basilmarket
http://www.basilmarket.com/forum/2278619/1/Justice_Update_and_Thief_Hero_Coming.html
So wait, you have to level the theif to get that job thing(like clerics, F/P, and I/L’s all over again…?), some kind of new choice like db’s, or a skill….
its the thief hero…
thats looks boring imo
lets wait and see if its worth it
and i hope those arent its actual skills(the hurricane and the heavans hammer) maybe they are like skills you CAN obtain
and lastly whats happening on the 12 of january?
they can copy someone’s skill as long as they are in the same mapas tat mean no need for bishop anymore just find a afk one and copy hs
Which bishop would actually be afking at the RIGHT map? And if you wanna bring your bishop there, that just defeats the whole purpose, but yeah, nice tactic xD Especially now since HS gives 150% exp solo
I guess you have to be in the same map, so probably if there is a bishop, you will find his entire party there.
Also it may be for a limited time only, so even if you change channels the buff wil expire.
and lat thing, it also may not be possible to steal ALL skills, it just shows hurricane and heaven hammer, so it might be just skills that ressemble that class (ultimates, etc)
wtf is dat supposed to be copycat skills again?[
TRANSLATION PLS
Wait… what happens on January 12?
i need translation does that mean justice can use other skills depending on the card he flips so he can copy moves from bm, sin, db, and so on O_O it just blew my mind.
First, i think you mean Phantom, not Justice. Phantom is the Thief Hero and Justice is the name of the update.
Phantom has the ability to steal a skill from other characters in the map when he enters Steal Mode. Do you see the two dark pictures focusing on a character with a sniper crosshair after “This is the Phantom’s mount, a car? He’s so cool!”? That is steal mode and you can select another character and “steal” a skill from their skillbook that lets you use that skill.
What’s unclear is if you would steal that skill at maxed level or according to the skill level in that character’s skill level. This skill probably will be nifty since you can steal a MW30 from other players (If you steal according to their level) so you won’t have to buy the SB. 😀
I wonder how that would work for wildhunters or mechs?
You’d probably get some skill like se or lucky dice
You can only steal form Adventurer classes, so Resistance and Legends don’t count
I didn’t like so much the new character looks kinda boring IMO
He can copy skill, calling it
whoa another new boss isit strong?? i wonder……….
whoa another new boss isit strong?? i wonder……….
*Confused* Need English subtitles.
Spadow has added subtitles ^^
Max I think the subs are in korean 😮 just saying~
im assuming that u can link another character to the thief hero and the thief hero will get a specific skill from linked character,
the video at 3:40 makes me assume this, IDk though
Might be truth
could be fun depend on which skills he can get
Wow this job look lame. All of its skills look like every other jobs skill with a different image.. Hope it not actually like this.
lol i imagine he use 1h bw like ds and another new shield type for cards.
OMFG holy…….. dam that looks so awesome but the theif hero looks ultra OP but i dont mind cos i love new classes plus can someone make subtitles i understood about 100 words throughout the entire video. Also i want the PIRATE revamp why wont it go faster and you notice they turned the third part of a seperate update into the start of an entirely different series of updates and also you notice that with the new city there is a shadowy figure which i believe may either be a boss OR a new class
The Phantom Can Steal Skills from Explorers ONLY. Excluding: Dual bladers, Cannoneers, ect. So he can only Skill steal from Explorers that are magicians, Bowmen, ect.
The Phantom can Only Steal a certain amount of skills per skill called “Talent of the Phantom theif I, II, III, IIII, V.” you can Only Steal Certain Types of Skills EXcluding Certain buffs that don’t affect the entire party.
The Phantom is NOT OP (thank god). If you YouTube The phantom and see its damage at lvl 200 or what ever u want it is Ridiculously Weak!
As for the Theif/Pirate Revamp, I think Battle ship and The transform skills are gone and stuff in a trade for new skills. (i don’t like the idea of that!). The Theives have been Revamped the LEAST. i think their gaining more than their losing.
I have ONE question myself. Does the Theif/Pirate Revamps effect the Phantom in anyway?
No. The Thief revamp only applied to Night Walkers and explorer thieves. And plus it came in GMS before Phantom.
About the copied skills what i believe he have a luck chance to use a certain skill (same as the dice thing except its not buff its a skill xD).
Wait is pirate/thief revamp part of the union update or the justice update? Im confused. And whats that female person near the end of the video? New boss? Idk
ooo i know why it is using huricane and heavens hammer
look at 3:45
at the top it says steal mode
it means u can steal a skill from a class
LOL really? this is the first real copycat class…
I guess you can say this class is really a thief lol
So if the pirate legend starts with an L would he be Pirate King LUFFFYYY :D. High chance the pirate legend is a bucc too.
How would you know? Most people said that the Thief Hero would use throwing stars, and instead it turned out to be cards
There is NO pirate legend. The new Hero is Luminous, a magician ironically, much like Evan. He uses a balance of Light and Dark spells and is extremely OP. He’s already been released in KMS, check it out.
Yay!
Looking forward to this class
look pretty cool
Oh no, here Basil goes again, let the [NewClass] is OP threads start. Someone kill me.
Some person’s gonna post a vid of a phantom with 600% luk and then people will be like this class is OP im quitting maple
Omg those phantom haters are idiots. Cant stop them, join them. 😀
Are you dat stupid? 600% LUK would cost too much, and you only need 200%+ to hit max damage anyway.
cool i hope this comes by summer 😀
I’m still skeptical as to whether or not this IS the thief Legend. Can someone show me a script with some kind of prelude hidden inside?
Job IDs were found…
Please give your alternative. If this isn’t the Thief Legend, what is it? A new adventurer?
Does this new job just copy moves of other classes…….. thats kinda cheap…… and the weird instant super range tele he does to….(and blue whirl wind thing looks annoying and rather cheap, probably 4th job move)
Steal Mode is just ONE of the class skills. They have other skills too. Phantom Shroud is like a super fast dark sight skill. How does Tempest of Cards look cheap?
Tempest of Cards is a modified version of battlemage skills…..its still cheap
technically…..a copycat of all jobs though
even some skills of its own was a modified version of another jobs………
the thief hero looks epic!!! i wonder how long the stolen skills/buffs last? it would be incredibly cheap if the stolen buffs got full duration and the skills total power.
My guess would be you get the skill lvl depending on the steal skill lvl. ie: Steal = lvl 6 hurricane = lvl 6. Or at least that is the only way it’d make sense to me
U need to be any that job lv or lv of class but …
Eg: 30-69 2nd job skill avalibale for lv 30. 70-119 skills not avalibale for lv 30 lol 1 question …
? Evan skills come from where
Max I really wanna know about the trailer
Please hurry😭
isnt the theif hero called Lotus? <– male or female???
Phantom is the thief hero if you read the above post. Noone knows for sure about the pirate hero.
There is no pirate hero. The new Hero after Phantom is a magician named Luminous who uses light and dark spells, already released in KMS. So basically, two Magician heroes. q.q
Lotus is just Orca (Orchid)’s sister. And anyways, his/her name is Su in kMS, and I don’t think that gMS would change the name of a Hero.
I honestly like the new job >_<. It has an interesting new system. I thought battle mages were lame till i played one and now its my main :P. The skills are flashy and nice :P. I can't wait till this comes out on GMS probably next year. But by how fast Nexon is putting up updates at the moment it may come by spring-summer.
Wait, copying skills of your other characters?! or just explorers
i think only adventurers
cuz how will aran evan resistance work?
By copying their skill? What’s even in question?
LOL, does anyone read? Steal Mode is one of Phantom’s skills in which THEY GET TO STEAL A SKILL FROM ANOTHER CHARACTER IN THE SAME MAP
Mercedes
Aran
Phantom
()???
Evan
Most likely luffy =))
Luffy sucks!
Now ima creep people before it cons 2 Canada then USA
<(0_0<) (>0_0)>
Kirby dance
Me up^^^^^^^
waffles will rule pizza pwns cake and pie… suck to pizza. Waffles kill pizza
Cannoneer. >_>
Cannoneer is sub-Adventurist, like Dual Blade o.o
I heard it was something like Laagan
LAGANN! =D
L for Luminous 🙂
Finally someone said it
d-(^_^ )z Good Job!!!
Phantom. Not sure if best class or just overly dependent on other characters.
Nice job max
But how did u figure out all this?!!!
The video as well as the website.
U put so much effort into your blog
I envy u for your determination
Awsome work max~
Seems the post was updated while commenting. Clearly, Kaito is now best class. (Google: Phantom Thief)
thanks Max for the great update.
and this update has a high-low feelings for me… this is kinda disappointing in a way and kinda cool in a way…. damm right now i am really really DISAPPOINTED….
Awesome!
So this guy copied the Black mage’s power
OHMAIGOD PHANTOM IS SO AWESOME DESPITE THE FACT THAT HE’S A COPYCAT ;DDDDDD
OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG IM SO GONA PLAYIT MAN. ALTHOUGH ITS PLAYING SYSTEM SEEMS QUITE COMPLICATED.
Max, any idea if they can Steal any Skill/Buff or if its predetermined skill per Job?
Also, what’s the photo with the sniper looking thing about? The one with the players lined up and a zoom target on em.
That is steal mode Lolz
That is ‘Steal Mode’, and I don’t know the specifics :S All I can tell you is that Phantom uses Steal Mode to take a skill from a character in the same map as him.
Hilla is Empress Cygnus’s sister!
No Hilla is a black wing commander which can change her identy cygnus only has a aunt which her name is aria and she died so phantom wants to aveng aria
lol nice one ^
i tot it looked familiar…. LOL!
lol i’m going to name my Phantom class something SlyCooper related
woot i can’t believve i guessed on his weapon and i got partially right! the cane weapon of course, but the card part i was waaaay off.
AWESOME!!!
hey max can you find the hd version of the justice wallpaper?
They haven’t made one but here’s the link to all the ones they have made so far:
http://maplestory.nexon.com/MapleStory/Page/Gnx.aspx?URL=Resource/Wallpaper
All I see is this D:
ahhh…
oh well.. got a cool-ass background now XD.
Just gotta keep looking!
eww feels like a p server 100% now.Disappointing class now everyone can be anything and no more complaining.
OMGGGGGGGGGGGG 😀
Is there still another revamp on thief+pirate in tespia server????
Nope, the last of the revamps for Thieves and Pirates has been set. The next one would be for Phantom.
The new class looks absolutely awesome, it’s much more than I was expecting!
Lol at all the people complaining about it copying other characters abilities, you do realize that’s only ONE of his skills right? o_o
I mean seriously it’s like every time Nexon gives us something new fresh, and exciting the spoiled American kids will complain about every silly little thing they can find, without even giving the new content a chance, absolutely pathetic.
Also ROFL at the people saying Luffy sucks, yeah the main character from the number one series in Japan who just got a huge upgrade sucks… American idiocy never ceases to amaze me ¬_¬
Anyways Phantom looks kind of complicated but a heck of a lot of fun, I can’t wait to play as him.
dont call americans stupid >_< sure we are ignorant at times but when has the world ever not been ignorant -______-
other than than, i agree that people need to stop complaining about the characters, it is only one skill and at least there is new game play 😐
Well at this point they have complained about each new class.
So all I have left to say is this: The old classes are still playable you know?
I can’t wait to see what’s next and I am really happy with this.
Thanks Nexon!
All I have to complain about is the NX price, other than that great job!
That is quite a racist comment you got there
1-American kids
2-American idiocy
Not only Americans are stupid, all the world makes mistakes
I think aran and even need a new makeover and nexon needs to write some kind of story line in a book or something cause this is getting awesome 😀
YAY PIMP CANE!!!
you sir are genius
Just what I was thinking!
Epic comment win!
I REALLY like it how the thief hero is neither NL or Shad. Instead, he is completely different! That is so awesome. I think this is the first hero I am actually excited about as the past Hero’s were too similar to the adventures – which gives me no real reason to play them. Granted, Aran and Mercedes was different from warriors and archers in many aspect, but I feel like it wasn’t distinct enough.
However, this new class just seemed really cool in ever aspect. This completely caught me by surprise! I hope Nexon will continue to innovate the new classes and Heroes as I am very tired of Copy and Paste skills with different graphics. Noting innovating about it at all.
Oh, and I really hope that they just make all boss instances. Please just do that. This way it will get rid of all those damn dc hackers. Because when people can go on any channel to boss, it’ll be near impossible for that dc hacker to keep track of people. This will be so awesome. Please please please, just make it instances! It will totally negate dc hackers during boss runs!!!
I like how you DIDN’T mentioned Dual Blade at all
will the skills Phantom copies be the same lvl as the skill of the person or will it be based on the max of the skill ?
I don’t know, sorry D:
Uh… so as in World wide link skill, could I use link skills on my scania characters and use them on culverin characters?!
Woah, I’m stunned by the Justice update.
1) The second update in KMST on Pirate/Thief skills was a good one although it was just mostly decreased MP usage. Hope nothing shocking comes out when they release it in KMS.
2) Phantom, Thief Hero. Nexon did a GREAT job, solving 2 most common complaints
-New classes just copy and paste skills from previous classes with slightly different animations
-New classes are just OP versions of their predecessors (EG: DS> Warriors)
To those people who call Phantom cheap, OP, etc.. you seriously need to shut up since you will be unsatisfied either way.
*What’s trending now is that Nexon starts to give a standard face with slight changes for new classes (Merc, DS) etc so it’s kinda hard for customization, but anyways.
3) Aswan is kinda cool. I love how Nexon keeps improving the story in overall for Maple and I hope it has something to do with Pirate Hero. Can’t wait!
4) Lulz to all the assumptions that they would call the Pirate Hero Luffy. Any other suggestions beginning with the name L?
The unexplained stuff such as Simulation System sounds exciting. Please shed light on this ASAP Max! 😀
GD Nexon
don’t pretend u were a smartass….u looks like a dog(probably a fag) that says yes whatever NEXON does….Get A Life,mate
這是多麼令人驚喜和振奮的！
這是冬季最精采的篇章！
What the fXck!!!!!????(I’m sorry= =”
O‧M‧G I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw these informations ……
This job is so cool that I can’t wait to play it on next summer at TMS(I’m Taiwanese)
TMS always updates after six months of KMS updates= =”
If my English grammaries appear mistakes, I’m very sorry.XD
just notice that when phantom using an attacking skill the secondary weapon-card will also attack!
Sweet.This legend rocks.SO gonna make one.People who are whining and complaining obviously don’t know what they are talking about.In most of the games there is a character called by the name of trickster,jester or whatever you may like (you can use ditto as a pokemon reference).Nervetheless,this character has the unique ability to copy other skills.Now this character has some drawbacks,you CANNOT copy each and every skill.There are specific skills copyable.Also you can steal one skill at a time.If nexon follows this pattern like the other games,I am sure this character would be liked only a select few players.
Since tespia isnt here,all this is speculation.But I am super excited for this legend 😀
WHOZAH!!! Pirates and Thieves finally get thier BIG BREAK!!! 😀 woot
KMS keeps on getting better cooler and most of all “Flashy Fly” :3
Phantom is totally “Big Pimpin” on that mount and dat BIG ASS “SO FLY” SHIP LOL
And finally we get more maple world expansion, Aswan.
Though I’m gonna bet its ridiculously high lvled, like 160+ at least. ~_~
I hope its not too high like Knights Stronghold which is like 180+
IF thats the case, What KMS need to do in the future is cut the exp curve for 120+ by 50% that we people who have lives can actually enjoy lvling all these new characters up to 200 therefore enjoying the full extent of this godawfully addicitng MMO. ~_~ mattaku
I think Aswan mentioned somewhere? By the 3rd Job Instructors or the dudes in Zakum Dungeon. And it sure seems like the Orbis El Nath region was been getting alot of expansions more so than other places with exception to Time Temple.
In the beggining we had Orbis, then El Nath, Zakum, Orbis PQ, Hobo PQ + Ice Ravine, Cyrses(Greece), and Leon Castle.
Finally, bosses like Zakum, Horntail, and Van Leon will become instanced!
What does this mean?
It won’t be one party per channel, it will become sort of like a minidungeon in that an unlimited amount of parties can fight the boss in the same channel 🙂
This looks so awesome… Aswan looks very much like stuff from the Nihil Desert, hopefully they’re adding this to it. Also, I LOVE PHANTOM… but I hattttte that his mount is a car… I wish Nexon would stick to more fantasy-like things, I think a huge hawk or crow would look awesome with him D:
Thanks for the update Max! Great as always
Agreed. The car doesn’t seem to fit in well; Neither do a lot of the foreign content like Taipei 101, Singapore, Maylasia or even Kerning City. I wish they would just stick to a more fantasy genre.
Aswan reminds me of the lost town in the Zakum area. I keep thinking it is because of the flames and background.
Here comes Gambit. Pick a card, any card?
When do KMST get phantom? I wanna see real gameplay of it. 🙂
Who thinks that Justice will get a reoganisation patch within the next few months >.> THATS TOO OVER POWERED >.> Attacks like Hurricane or rapid fire as a AOE is too overpowerd >.> and the ability to steal skills aswell people will make these and other classes will be just mule for more power.
Phantom’s “Card” system sounds like a more-limited version of the Demon Slayer’s Force system – instead of getting tokens (“force” or “cards”) to execute special moves from every hit, you only get them from crits.
Moving around a whole map with no damage? If they gave Phantom “Master of Inventory” then by god that would be the ULTIMATE mule character.
Also, for a guy/girl who just recently(?) got unfrozen from a block of magical-ice, Phantom is doing REALLY financially well – hiring several people, having a giant home-ship, as well as fuel and funds to run both. Damn that’s one RICH thief.
well demon slayers copied arans about charging up attacks with a basic attack. and Im pretty sure arans took that system off of heroes or something.
But the thief hero looks so awesome, I hate how people are complaining about this class being a copycat, because that’s not all the moves for the class.
can you change the hair color and skin color or them or no?? and do you have to change your cloths on the phantom like reg theif cloths or no cause i would like to keep my cloths
no on knows the answer yet. u just have to wait till justice comes out in kmst
i like luffy and lotus but y r ppl saying Luffy? lol
It’s pretty..not smart…of what they did to the Phantom Hairstyles. The Male ones look so feminine.
Not really
Lolz
Wait .
If we steal the skill , then the weapon change . So is the stats of eqs change ?
There’s no information about the technical parts of this job yet, so I can’t answer your question D:
Over PowEredtoo much to handle
i wanna keep the begginer cloths for this hero i dont like reg theif items!
Lol Ikr
what should i do i wanna keep them but i dont wanna be weak lol and they better have this stuff in nx so i can buy it
Lolz
Yeah too bad I can’t get nx in kms
Well you could play your Phantom with regular gear until you can afford to get upgrade chaos/overall/potential scrolls for your starter gear. Then you’ll be OP.
It’s the sister of Orcha.
lolololol
what with all the pics with the biggner out fit but is fight high level stuff
Max is there a Wallpaper version for the Legend poster?(the first pic you put up)
Why don’t they just fucking instance all bosses already? -.-
these class is amawzing
If i got TT30 before this patch then after will my quad throw get lvl 30 or will i have to waste money buying mastery books
Isn’t Aswan a city in Egypt? I would love to see where the new town is located in which region, or it might be like Edelstein or Erev, or the Aran based area.
The lady in the picture is probably a boss. But since Empress Cygnus is already so OP, i’m really interested to see how powerful she is going to be. And I think the reason they keep updating the skills and job is to prepare maplers to face the ultimate boss, black mage, in the final chapter.
By the way, there must be a defect for an op job like this- eg: Dual Blades are required to purchase their skill book through cash shop, might be a pain in the ass for some of the maplers. They might make an effing long cooldown before the Phantom can start stealing skills again, or limit the number of skills they can steal per day.
forget the skills where the eff is the quest storyline?
SOOOOOOOOO looking forward to phantom
Luffy is a boss ass name
Aswan ??? Seriously ?? Is there an Aswan Dam there ? LOL
lol if can steal skill must steal dark genesis
Naw, he must get phantom blow. That skill is so expensive: 300 mill mesos T.T. Also, it does great damage, one of the best moves :D.
Quick question, in the future, will you be able to change look of Phantom? I don’t really like the hair and skin color they give us.
I’m sure you can, Nexon wouldn’t waste a chance to get money!
when this gonna be out in gms??
January 12, the release of the new town called Aswan
Hey Max, you’re the one who originally wrote all of these right?
I was searching for some information about Justice on Google and I saw several other forum copy and paste the entire content from here and didn’t give the credit to the guy who did all the hard work o.o
Oh and one more thing, maybe you should combine all the content of Legend, Union, Justice and all the other BIG update separately into one page and post them all in the helpful link so easier navigation.
I had to go search the archive every now and then to find some of the older update notes and it really take a while to find what I am looking for…
This is awsome!!!!!!!!!@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@:-)
omg the phantom has the SHARINGAN 0_o
ye but when is this all coming out??
Nobody knows~
phantom looks pretty lame. sounds like they depend on other characters too much. what if youre soloing or just alone? you cant copy any skills and could be screwed, if they weak skills.
Lul Wut
wait which justice is stronger？
What do you mean?
i mean which character@is the strongest of the three justices？
I have no idea, try checking Southperry’s damage calculations?
i still say pirate hero is luffy i mean luffy d. monkey’s father was pirate king
Damn it ok the L for the whole maple theory is pretty easy and sry to say but it was pretty easy to figure out. idk wat update it will be in but the classes is Lancer lol you guys had some funny guesses and if you dont believe me then go f*** off.
So no one knows when this is coming out??? Damn nexon sure does know how to build anticipation!!
how do you know that though?
it’s been awhile since i took a break on maplestory a new class i see
its okay because
Mercedes
Arans
Phantom
L
Evan
Ranger
Shadowers
two hundred!
Do Chaos Zakum and Chaos Horntail get instanced as well?
I think so.
I’m korean. I was able to understand fully what this person was saying..
His voice is so freaking annoying
o COME ON WHY DECEMBER SO LONG VAFFANCULO JUSTICE PHANTOM!!!!!! the trailer couldnt be realised later????? im so excited no but also if i wait to long its gonna bore me out o-o TT.TT
Isnt the phantom like Gambit from x men?
I know I know, they could name the pirate Lucius
Im glad nexon is trying to give us new stuff in the game, but i think they are doing it the wrong way. they culda stoped at pirate update and increased the lv cap from 200 and added 5th and 6th jobs o.o
Although, i do like the look of Phantoms, its just gunna be the new OP class everyone hates.
For anyone who wants to know I have been doing alot of research about phantom and discovered with the steal skill you have to be on the same map as the chara you are stealing the skill from but after you have the skill it is yours until you get rid of it. You may only steal 1 skill per job class. About how much sp the skill will have I’m not sure. I believe it will be maxed.
Anyway the steal skill is better then it sounds, sure you can only have a certain amount of skills in your inv. per job advancement but it’s still better then having to stay in the same map as whoever you are stealing the skill from, right?
M:Mercedes
A:aran
P:Phantom
L:Lawliet
E:Evan
So basically, you copy siege mode off a mechanic and kill bosses instantly.
No, you can only copy from Adventurers, and even if you could steal from other classes, you wouldn’t be able to get the mount, use your brain before you say something stupid
FINALLY… A map navigation. Just what i wanted
I had a quick question Max, with the Justice patch and the loss of PvP, do we lose the PVP gear? Or will BATT just disappear?
Nope, all Battle Attack still exists, although its useless.
Thanks so much Max. Wanted to decide whether or not I wanted a Rising Sun Face Paint.
Where can I download this game looked and could not find any place you can get me a link??
maplestory.nexon.net
what stat does phantom use?
Luk and dex
Suck deck bech
Bitch Please!
Bitch prease mother fackers!
When is justice coming to maplesea??
Im just waiting for the pirate hero’s wep to be something TOTLLY different, like they did for the last 4 chars or something
anyone know when phantom is release in mapleglobal??
I know it’s been a long time, but I’m only just now looking over patch info since re-jioning the game after a long time, and.. Testonen cannot be the pirate hero. He is not hundreds of years old, if he was the father to Kyrin, who is still alive in this day and age. He must have been born long after the Black Mage fought with the heroes and was sealed.
Awesome Phantom daebak~!
Pirate = Lotus (spoiler) xD
luminous
Yea it Luminous there is on pirate hero to bad 😛
Mercedes (archer)
Aran (warrior)
Phantom (thief)
Luminous (mage)
Evan (mage)
Where the heck is the pirate??? D=
there won’t be a pirate because they came later on and there wasn’t an original pirate heroe (so it stays lore friendly)
God phantom comes out 7/12/12 on gms!!! Can’t wait yay!!!
The job will release in Singapore Maple Story on 2012??
8D(wow it so cool!)pffffffffffffft

i would still put the Phantom class as a pirate class. Because when he steals a skill (can not be passive has to be active) he doesnt actually steal it, because stealing would mean that the original owner (In this case another class) would lose that skill. however he copies the skill, and that is what pirating is…
Hilla is just another boss they have implemented to try and make game play more fun, seeing as bossing is becoming easier and easier.. even an unfunded bishop can solo zak now…
also when you “Copy” a skill from another Adventurer class (Warrior,Bowmen,Thief,Pirate,Mage) you memorize it in your load-out skill and you then have that skill untill you decide you have no use for it, this however does require “Impeccible Memory” Skill that you get at each Job advancement. you level this skill up like any other skill, and when you do “Copy” a skill, that skill is the same level as you impeccible memory skill in the Required Job advancement *For example… 4th Job advancement Impeecible memory is level 19, You try to steal a level 30 Maple Warrior, You will only get a level 19 Maple Warrior Regardless.
Maple Warrior Cant Be Stolen
“Maplestory Justice Update! Orange Mushroom’s Blog” was indeed a great article. In case it possessed much more pictures it would likely be perhaps even more effective. All the best -Janie
