MapleStory Tempest! & kMSt ver. 1.2.437 – Luminous Storyline~

MapleStory’s next update, the one said to exceed even the Big Bang, is set to release in three days. Finally, a bit of information has been released! On July 4, a video will be posted for this (apparently) massive patch!

The Prelude of the Storm will be on July 5, and the Choice of Light and Darkness on July 12. There will be five updates in total, but they haven’t been officially released yet. The first one is very vague, but I’m sure on July 12, Luminous will be released! A new Inkwell’s Secret Diary has been released, could this be another new job?! Oh yeah, Empress equipment‘s secondary stat requirements have been removed!

EDIT: The teaser has finally been released, although it’s sort of… weird looking?

Get 3rd and 4th advancement faster! I guess the first patch will include the level changes for job advancements.

Transcending the sword of the beginning, 
Who is waiting for the selection of the sword?

The title of this entry is The sword’s executor slicing through the fierce Tempest. Do you remember that notice I posted, that I thought was the Black Mage’s commander, Magnus? Doesn’t this sword look similar? Not to mention there’s that job ID 6100, a warrior type job in a new faction. This could possibly be a new job…?

They added quests for Luminous starting at level 10 (still no tutorial!)~ Due to the midnight ban, I won’t be able to tell you about the storyline at the moment, but here are some pictures of the maps involved.

This is Lania’s home, I’m assuming she’ll be one of your friends growing up as Luminous. It’s located near Ellinia.

This is the Black Mage! In NPC form though, you won’t be able to fight him just yet, haha. I think this will be used for the tutorial, and the map that was shown in Inkwell’s Secret Diary. I see he still has no feet. (Thanks to Spadow for the animation!)

   

There are also four of the heroes, Aran, Freud, Mercedes, and Phantom, not to mention Demon Slayer. These NPCs will be used in the map with the Black Mage, in the tutorial I believe.

 

Then there are these two, Guwaru and Magnus, commanders for the Black Mage. I guess I was right in saying that these two would make their appearance soon!

Going from what I see in the quest names, Luminous in his higher levels works towards finding traces of the Black Mage, and in Elin Forest, Guwaru is resurrected. At level 110, he meets Van Leon.

Another interesting thing is this scene (again, thanks to Spadow for the animation!). As you can see, Magnus attacks his fellow commander! What could this mean…?

Skill Changes

Phantom

  • Judgement (beginner): Fortune Card’s effect has been increased from 5% critical chance to 10% (upgraded Fortune Card’s effect has been increased from 10% critical chance to 20%)
  • Acute Sense (3rd): critical chance boost has been decreased from 50% to 30%
  • Soul Steal (4th): cooldown has been increased from 60 to 120 seconds

Luminous

  • Equilibrium (beginner): stance effect has been increased from 50% to 100%
  • Inviolability (2nd): delay has been decreased
  • Absolute Kill (4th): number of hits has been increased from 6 to 7, cooldown has been increased from 10 to 12 seconds
  • Light Reflection (4th): delay has been decreased  

The one who goes against fate, prepare for destiny’s decision!

Ugh, where’s the trailer?! Well… I guess this a sort of cool image. Hopefully this video comes soon, because Tempest is released tomorrow!

The trailer has finally been released, and… what? It’s very… odd looking. Anyways, it’s called Inkwell’s Tempest Press Conference 1, and reveals only a couple new things.

Other than what was already known (job advancement levels reduced, Luminous), something big for high level players will be added. There will also be new enemies as well as a new continent. Finally, there will be a new race/faction that is completely original, one that no one would have ever imagined!

I’m excited for this new continent (a new area to explore, yay!) as well as this job… could that picture at 2:55 be one of these new classes?

Hmmm… wings, a tail, a pointed face… could this be some sort of… half-dragon? One could even say… a Dragon Slayer? Haha, just kidding~

        Since maplestorys motto is always “your story” im thinking this will be the first “evil” character you can be, and if you can be part of the evil side than maybe they will release this character the same time they release luminous. They might release it all at once like they did with mikhail. i might be too hopeful for this, but they shouldve done this a while ago ^-^

      Go back to the original 4 imo. Archers, Magicians, Thieves, and Warriors. Take out the Pirate and Knight of the Cygnus patches and everything!! Then take all the skills from the current characters and fuse them with the original 4 making each job in each class more unique. Think of Evan, Battle Mages, and Luminous’s skills split among Fire/Poison, Ice/Lightning, and BIshops. That would be epic and would make more sense.

      • Anonymous
        July 3, 2012 at 7:37 pm

        if you want, each class to be more unique, even at the cost of removing most classes, then a better idea would be to remove every class but the 5 heroes, cause each of them has something that is completely unique to them. if there weren’t a demon slayer, then aran would be THE most unique class in game. I mean the only thing he shares with any other class is the multiple reg att press to cast main att once so you can charge up finishers i mean, hesitance the only one who is unable to spam more than one attack skill in his entire book AT ALL, and the only one to have to use arrow keys for purposes other than moving, and the attack key at all after 1st job, even when he’s not sealed or trying to farm a reactor, the only character whose play style is derived almost entirely from another genre of games (console action games one of the reasons its so much easier to play an aran using a controller is because the core controls were designed for a game on a console using a controller) Evan’s Advancements are the most unique, as they hold asthetic value and are the only ones that exist after 120 and never existed at 70, and are ALL automatic, and has his own personal npc/skill user that follows him around everywhere except when riding his tamed mob, the only one who cannot use any of his exclusive mounts except the best one obtainable to someone his level, the only one who has a skill that requires him to have his mount but doesnt involve already being on it or the mount being a skill in itself but rather accessed through the monster rider skill, and the only mage to rely on more than 2 elements, and the only class with a magic guard that lasts for 10 minutes rather than 5, ignores 10% damage in addition to displacing 85%, and is dispellable. Mercedes is the only archer that doesnt need ammo and the only class to have a skill that speeds up climbing ropes, the only class that not only has chain skills but necessitates certain skills be a part of a chain to be used. Phantom is the only character that can copy others skills the only character that can build up energy for a random buff, and the only one with a fully controllable teleport. Luminous is the only one who controlls opposing elements the only one who receives a buff to the other element and a nerf to the one he is using when he uses to many skills of the element he is using, and has skills of two elements in one, and receives a buff to both elements when he has used both completely equally (either that or when he uses a skill of both elements. It makes more sense this way, as it stillness removes pirates completely like you wanted, still removes the lack of differences in classes like you wanted, (in fact, it would make the classes in the game more unique than ever before, not only completely different from eachother but also from every other rpg out there. Besides, most of the unoriginality is BECAUSE of adventurers. now, before you flame me, hear me out. For the most part, Skills aren’t unique for one of 3 reasons, all of which have adventurers as the root cause. The first way skills lose their uniqueness is by having a new adventurer come along a steal them. (i.e. final toss → upper stab. sair’s backwards fj/attack concept → cs backwards fj/attack mages ultimate → sudden raid [they were the first non-mage to get an ulti, and thus its the seed that grew into the trend everyone and their mom gets one. octopus → cs turret thingy) the second reason almost no unique skills is that adventurers rip off of others skills during revamps (evans magic booster → adventurers magic booster evans critical magic → mages magic overdrive evans magic mastery → mages spell mastery. BaM’s teleport mastery → mages teleport mastery dawn warrior’s soul rush → the warrior movement skill. Rapid Fire → Hurricane. ) The final reason adventurers are to blame for the shortage of uniqueness is that they exist. Before you ridicule this claim, please hear my reasoning. Well first, they don’t have any radical playstyle affecting gimmicks like hero classes, and they don’t mess with the things that are supoosed to be true with all members of that job branch causing them to be a little unorthadox like the resistance, and they dont have elemental attributes like the cygnus knights. No, the things that make each adventurer class unique are exactly the type of thing that classes are copying off eachother: the unique (or once unique) effects and side effects that are of a kind more traditional to rpgs (such as transforming, dot, summoning, elements, and side-effect status) so if all the uniqueness in that aspect was gone, adventurers would be complerely unoriginal, but every other class would still have a shred of uniqueness left. WARNING: THE FOLLOWING REASONING IS BACKED BY SUCH FOOLPROOF LOGIC THAT IT’LL CAUSE ONE EXTREME FRUSTRATION IN TRYING TO FIND A VALID COUNTER ARGUMENT THAT IT WILL CAUSE YOU TO FACEDESK BECAUSE YOU CANT FIND A VALID ARGUEMENT TO REASONING TO A SIDE OF A DEBATE YOU SO WHOLEHEARTEDLY BELEIVE IS WRONG, BUT I GUARENTEE YOU’LL FACEDESK REGARDLESS BECAUSE IF YOUR SMART BUT LACK WISDOM YOU’LL THINK THAT THIS ARGUEMENT IS STUPID AND HAS FLAWED LOGIC BUT IF YOU ARE WISE ENOUGH YOU’LL REALISE THAT THIS REASONING MAKES SENSE, The final reason adventurers existing is the main root of the problem is because if adventurers didn’t exist, then all the ideas copied off of them couldn’t have been copied off of them if they never existed, making those ideas original, not copies, also, since physics says there is no difference between past and future, that means that being the first to to do something that others will copy off of later is basically the same as stealing a past idea of someone else’s without knowning someone already thought of it.

    How about cutting the current EXP curve by 50%. (this applies to all level ranges seperate exp curves, 0-29, 31-69, 70-119, 120+)

    for the 120+ exp curve… it would be 2x faster than of Post BB, which would be 4x faster than what it was Pre-Big Bang.

    further reducing the EXP curve is what I care about. lol so that I can make lvl200 characters for all, and also get that smexy “The Next Legend” medal. and SS character card buffs.

    Sooner or later Maple will come to this.

    I’m still pissed how they took away PQing and Monster Park for levels under 50/60, ~_~
    oh well at least getting 4500 something exp from King Pepe boss PQ is nice 🙂
    then with 2x event its a whopping 9450 something plus 900ish from Eleven Blessing, and with 2x card or 1.3 from a buff if you mange to get one.

    I hope Tempest brings more new characters like Thief Resistance and Pirate Hero (oh wait there won’t be one… FAAAAAWK!!!!! DX)

      I can see why they made they made another mage. Mage means they can add any types of skills that consists of magic and it is easier to make than physical attack which are piratically alll the same now for those melee classes. Mages are the best way to go without copying the same type of skills like Ahem *Cough Cough * Mikhail * cough. That was the lamest job that ever came out. it was a copy of all the skill there was in MS and pasted on into one character.

    Okay this may seem stupid but hear me out. So far we know 1 thing that’s totally solid about this event: Luminous. These new sword concepts could possibly be revealing another job. And this isn’t solid either but I was reading on another KMS blog that they found coding for 3 new jobs I think. Could be just a rumor but still. Now here’s the theory: Luminous wields both powers of light, and powers of darkness. So why would there be a choice? I say that there’ll be a choice among jobs. This sword concept art could be a “choice for darkness”, Luminous could be the choice to use both light and darkness, and there might be a secret “choice for light” that they havent told us anything about yet. It’s just something I thought about. I could be totally and completely wrong. 😛

    • July 2, 2012 at 9:36 pm

      but can u possibly tell me the job ID for the ‘light class’

    • anonymous
      July 2, 2012 at 10:51 pm

      what i was thinking about it was that they might divide all classes into either “good” “evil” or “neutral”, heros being good cygnus being good and this brand new warrior being “evil”, that way we can actually say that its our story

    Hm… What would I want for the patch…? How about turn it into wonderking? =)

    Slap a cooldown on everything and make people do combos with lower job skills. Less spammy that way IMO.

    It’s not completely impossible, I mean they actually bought out the original devs of Wonderking anyway, so why the heck not? Plus it’s supposed to be a giant update, right? Bigger than big bang, right? I can’t really imagine anything larger than that atm.

    Also, make theme dungeons for all level ranges, and make it so that you get your skills by completing the theme dungeons instead of just grinding.

    PQs = Give Maple a random dungeon finder (from WoW). And make it cross-worlds.

    For monster park: it’s a side thing that you get good gear from (and exp, but theme dungeons are still mandatory).

    • July 2, 2012 at 9:38 pm

      yeah, i like your ideas
      but we dont know 3/5 of the updates they have planned so we cant really say anything yet…

      • Jegudiel
        July 2, 2012 at 10:11 pm

        Also, putting a cooldown system on everything makes it so you can’t spam it, which makes map hacking with a single attack a bit more difficult.

        But honestly, theme dungeon quests sound a lot better leveling than grinding your minds out in maps. But that’s my opinion =)

        • anonymous
          July 2, 2012 at 10:52 pm

          on top of all that mana cost isnt really a problem anymore for any of the classes

    • Jegudiel
      July 3, 2012 at 12:03 am

      A sample of what I mean: let’s take paladins for example…

      Multi-mob rotation=
      slashblast>groundsmash>slashblast>Acb (repeat from there)

      Also, make slash blast’s power scale with level in a way that it doesn’t completely suck, but has enough power to deal damage, and in a way that its attack power isn’t OP.

      Also, make heaven’s hammer cooldown longer, however, there’s a skill that procs with one of your attacks that instantly resets cooldown on it. This way you’re forced to react to it otherwise, it’ll be a wasted cooldown, and your dps will go down.

      I will find it interesting if nexon applies something like this on all the classes.

    I’m imagining about this new faction something like a rebelion, characters who switched sides from evil to good. Or maybe this update will let the player choose your side in the war, by choosing a faction, good vs. evil, and this char you’ll be the first one on the evil side available, fighting alongside the Black Mage

    1) That’s a nice looking sword
    2) Magnus is probably just a super-greedy guy, he looks like the type. He probably just killed the other commander for more magical powers. He might even rebel just because he thinks he should be the leader.

    Dragon Warrior class I’m calling it. It’ll be able to fly and use dragonic-themed attacks, with some minor affiinities for fire, because it’s an easy way to go.

    Max, i’m really confused right now, does all the elemental staffs and wands ADDS those 25% or something %dmg if you equip the right type of elemental staff/wand. if so yes, which type of elemental staff can my battle mage equip (elemental staves 5-7). if no then i’ll be fine. By the way, would there be a elemental shining rod too?, if yes what type of elemental does luminous use? Oh can luminous use normal staves/wands too? Thanks for your answers in advanced 😀

    Probably Magnus with a helmet (cause of the horns)

    Magnus, since they might add villain chars just so that the story doesn’t end so fast.

    Maybe Guwaru is the demon slayer’s brother? I mean they do look similair. They both have wings and horns growing from their head. The only difference is that the demon slayer is pale and has purple hair.

    Why cannot be more creative imagine about the new race/classes?about this word”Who is waiting for the selection of the sword?” What i thinking is like this Magnus kill the Guwaru and he get a more strongest power from guwaru so his lost the faith with his sword! And then the sword will finding new Master !

    July 7, 2012 at 1:53 am

    The race is probably half-kin (half dragon and half human) able to transform between dragon and human, transform parts or their body and have some abilities dragons have.

    I know this is late, but this is awesome. I don’t see why people think maplestory should go back to the first 5 classes. That bull was lame as a muddd. This new patch and update with the new classes and you might be getting a chance to fight Black Mage is GREAT. Finally, Nexon is getting exciting!!! Don’t see why people complain about the new maple.
    When the old Maple was out people just complained. They give you new, and you still complain. Remember, You can never please everyone. The people who like the old Maplestory is out of their minds. New Maple Rocks. I can’t wait until this comes to GMS. <3333

    Anonymous :
    if you want, each class to be more unique, even at the cost of removing most classes, then a better idea would be to remove every class but the 5 heroes, cause each of them has something that is completely unique to them. if there weren’t a demon slayer, then aran would be THE most unique class in game. I mean the only thing he shares with any other class is the multiple reg att press to cast main att once so you can charge up finishers i mean, hesitance the only one who is unable to spam more than one attack skill in his entire book AT ALL, and the only one to have to use arrow keys for purposes other than moving, and the attack key at all after 1st job, even when he’s not sealed or trying to farm a reactor, the only character whose play style is derived almost entirely from another genre of games (console action games one of the reasons its so much easier to play an aran using a controller is because the core controls were designed for a game on a console using a controller) Evan’s Advancements are the most unique, as they hold asthetic value and are the only ones that exist after 120 and never existed at 70, and are ALL automatic, and has his own personal npc/skill user that follows him around everywhere except when riding his tamed mob, the only one who cannot use any of his exclusive mounts except the best one obtainable to someone his level, the only one who has a skill that requires him to have his mount but doesnt involve already being on it or the mount being a skill in itself but rather accessed through the monster rider skill, and the only mage to rely on more than 2 elements, and the only class with a magic guard that lasts for 10 minutes rather than 5, ignores 10% damage in addition to displacing 85%, and is dispellable. Mercedes is the only archer that doesnt need ammo and the only class to have a skill that speeds up climbing ropes, the only class that not only has chain skills but necessitates certain skills be a part of a chain to be used. Phantom is the only character that can copy others skills the only character that can build up energy for a random buff, and the only one with a fully controllable teleport. Luminous is the only one who controlls opposing elements the only one who receives a buff to the other element and a nerf to the one he is using when he uses to many skills of the element he is using, and has skills of two elements in one, and receives a buff to both elements when he has used both completely equally (either that or when he uses a skill of both elements. It makes more sense this way, as it stillness removes pirates completely like you wanted, still removes the lack of differences in classes like you wanted, (in fact, it would make the classes in the game more unique than ever before, not only completely different from eachother but also from every other rpg out there. Besides, most of the unoriginality is BECAUSE of adventurers. now, before you flame me, hear me out. For the most part, Skills aren’t unique for one of 3 reasons, all of which have adventurers as the root cause. The first way skills lose their uniqueness is by having a new adventurer come along a steal them. (i.e. final toss → upper stab. sair’s backwards fj/attack concept → cs backwards fj/attack mages ultimate → sudden raid [they were the first non-mage to get an ulti, and thus its the seed that grew into the trend everyone and their mom gets one. octopus → cs turret thingy) the second reason almost no unique skills is that adventurers rip off of others skills during revamps (evans magic booster → adventurers magic booster evans critical magic → mages magic overdrive evans magic mastery → mages spell mastery. BaM’s teleport mastery → mages teleport mastery dawn warrior’s soul rush → the warrior movement skill. Rapid Fire → Hurricane. ) The final reason adventurers are to blame for the shortage of uniqueness is that they exist. Before you ridicule this claim, please hear my reasoning. Well first, they don’t have any radical playstyle affecting gimmicks like hero classes, and they don’t mess with the things that are supoosed to be true with all members of that job branch causing them to be a little unorthadox like the resistance, and they dont have elemental attributes like the cygnus knights. No, the things that make each adventurer class unique are exactly the type of thing that classes are copying off eachother: the unique (or once unique) effects and side effects that are of a kind more traditional to rpgs (such as transforming, dot, summoning, elements, and side-effect status) so if all the uniqueness in that aspect was gone, adventurers would be complerely unoriginal, but every other class would still have a shred of uniqueness left. WARNING: THE FOLLOWING REASONING IS BACKED BY SUCH FOOLPROOF LOGIC THAT IT’LL CAUSE ONE EXTREME FRUSTRATION IN TRYING TO FIND A VALID COUNTER ARGUMENT THAT IT WILL CAUSE YOU TO FACEDESK BECAUSE YOU CANT FIND A VALID ARGUEMENT TO REASONING TO A SIDE OF A DEBATE YOU SO WHOLEHEARTEDLY BELEIVE IS WRONG, BUT I GUARENTEE YOU’LL FACEDESK REGARDLESS BECAUSE IF YOUR SMART BUT LACK WISDOM YOU’LL THINK THAT THIS ARGUEMENT IS STUPID AND HAS FLAWED LOGIC BUT IF YOU ARE WISE ENOUGH YOU’LL REALISE THAT THIS REASONING MAKES SENSE, The final reason adventurers existing is the main root of the problem is because if adventurers didn’t exist, then all the ideas copied off of them couldn’t have been copied off of them if they never existed, making those ideas original, not copies, also, since physics says there is no difference between past and future, that means that being the first to to do something that others will copy off of later is basically the same as stealing a past idea of someone else’s without knowning someone already thought of it.

    I don’t see why you have to get rid of every class 😛 I like explorers, Jetts, Heros, Resistance, and Cygnus Knights
