kMSt ver. 1.2.438 – Protector of the Dragons, Kaiser!
This patch was HUGE, adding both the tutorial for Luminous as well as the new job, protector of the dragons, Kaiser! There’s also the long awaited Tempest shop and some new Cash Shop items! I’ll be going down the patch notes so read on~!
Kaiser will come to the real server on July 26! There has been no storyline added. I will cover the Tempest shop and Cash items a bit later, I’m busy right now!
The first new job of the Nova race, Kaiser, has been added! I think we can expect four more jobs! Kaiser has its job advancements at the regular levels of 10, 30, 60, and 100.
When you create one, you can choose your gender, as well as choose from two hair styles. From left to right in this picture, it’s male, female, male, female.
Haha they reused Luminous’ character creation background.
Kaiser seems to be some sort of half dragon, he comes with horns, wings, and a tail!
Kaiser uses two-handed swords, and a secondary weapon, the Dragon’s Soul. I think at fourth job you can give potential to the Soul.
Kaiser uses the Morph Gauge and Command skill systems. The Morph Gauge appears on your screen, it has the symbol of a dragon. As you use skills, the Morph Gauge will fill up and give you extra stats! If you are third job, once the Morph Gauge turns red, you can use the Transfiguration skill to transform!
To fill up the Morph Gauge, you must use the Command skill. Now, as Kaiser, you can hotkey his skills like normal. However, using them like that will fill up the Morph Gauge very slowly. To do it faster, you must use your Dragon Slash (attack key) as well as the arrow keys and the Command skill to activate skills. Doing so will fill up the Morph Gauge much faster as well as healing a percentage of your HP.

This patch also added Luminous’ tutorial, in which you can make the choice between Light and Dark. It affects some of the storyline as well as your skills (only first job though… I think). I don’t have time to record them, so I’ll just use these videos uploaded by NeoLegionEX (thanks!).
As you can see, Luminous is the final hero to enter the battle. On his way in, he sees Phantom and Aran, who hold off the Black Mage’s forces. Inside, Mercedes and Freud have already been defeated, Demon Slayer as well. After hearing that the Black Mage has been weakened greatly, Luminous seals the Black Mage away!
In the Light version, you gain access to the skills Twinkle Flash and Light Magic Enhancement.
In the Dark version, you get Dark Falling and Dark Magic Enhancement. This one is sad though… you abandon Lania after you destroyed her home!

NEW SKILL: Dark Falling (1st job): [Dark Magic] Attack up to 6 enemies in front of you for 107% damage using dark magic. (max level: 20)
NEW SKILL: Dark Magic Enhancement (1st job): Your damage is increased by 5% when using dark magic. (max level: 5)

- Death Scythe (3rd job): damage has been decreased from 330% to 230%, number of hits has been increased from 4 to 6, cooldown has been increased from 10 seconds to 24 seconds
- Dark Light Mastery (4th job): Death Scythe’s damage boost has been increased from 50% to 100%
Thanks to Fiel of Southperry for all skill icons and effects!
A new Pink Bean pet has been released, what makes this one unique (other than the attack bonuses for having it out, just like the Demon pets) is that its colour can be changed! After buying a Pet Color Change coupon in the Cash Shop, you can use the colour scrollers to change how your pet looks~
Also, the Zakum Dungeon Additional Entry Coupon has been added to the Cash Shop, along with one for Horntail. You can use these coupons to enter Zakum’s Altar or the Cave of Life more than the alotted 2 per day. However, you can only use 5 Additional Entry Coupons per day.
The Tempest Shop has been opened, you can find it by talking to the NPCs Wind and Spark in all major towns! Like other festival shops, they have a variety of items (mostly copy pasted, haha). I am definitely NOT going to list every single stat of every single equipment, you can check Fiel’s extractions for that.

Yay another class.
Yay Luminous storyline.
-Sigh- I want to play kaiser right now but my computer doesn’t let me…
this is what dragon knights are supposed to be. SIGH.
truth be told, ive now accepted all these new classes, it is keeping the game fresh and diverse
No. This constant spamming of new classes has ruined Maplestory beyond repair. The game has become so horribly unbalanced and convoluted that there’s almost no point in new players joining or old players returning.
So this means no 5th jobs as speculated since if there were gonna be fifth jobs – Kaiser would have them. Since they are a part of Tempest update. Me thinks Nexon has planned variable skills for left over jobs in the 4th job. Maybe they can offer player a hundred skills and the player chooses which ones to get and maximize. Something along that lines.
Not by a long shot. Just because Kaiser doesn’t have it doesn’t rule out the possibility for it. They may use 5th job as an attention-maker for the old classes, then turn around and do it for Kaiser. There’s a hundred different ways they could cut it. It’s not over until the fat lady sings.
Hope you’re right. I can’t wait to see what Nexon pulls out of it’s hat.
Well now that the job advancement levels have been lowered doesn’t that mean there is a higher possibility of 5th job advancements?
DAMMMMMMMMMMN
Indeed my friend…..
BEST VIDEO EVER!!!!!
this is a private video.
first!
nvm 😦
pobre weon
Kaiser ❤ dat transformation…
This is amazing!
I can’t wait for Kaiser to make it to official servers!
Really? I’m not too excited about this class at all.
Aw. Kaiser so cute.
Nox Spear was probably nerfed because Dark Magic Enhancement is now available.Oh and before I forget : The video shows,that Dark Falling hits 3 times but you didn’t mention that..
Attack Mode? Defence mode? What is this, Yu Gi Oh?
Ha-ha! Good one mate!
wow a super demon slayer XD
I’m worrriedd about the spam people are gonna make with those skills :p but these 2 classes are epic 😀
Well, brace yourself, more is coming soon!
so does kaiser use 2h sword or is that a cover?
He uses 2 handed swords.
I wonder if Kaiser will be included into Black Mage story line or if Nexon is planing a new story line for the future.. I’m saying this since I think it’s the first time we hear about a new “Race” -> Nova.
Looks like a new story line . Nexon should wrap up the black mage sage and start a new story. Probably Novas come from another planet(America Style) or parallel universe( Asian Style) with new continents , items , enemies and a new super villain in the league of the black mage.
For some reason the animations for Kaiser looks as if they were created by a less experienced animator. They just look a tad too simple compared to some of the previous more elaborate skill animations, and the transformation is a bit too static. It would be nice if Nexon refined the skills a bit more before officially releasing the class.
I don’t know why, but I got that feeling too, and I was waiting Kaiser info to be released so I could prepare for it, but it doesn’t look that cool 😦
Meh, by the time this comes i would of quit.. that or have 15 level 200s…
Do anyone think that Kaiser’s skill Chain Pulling looks like Renji’s Zanpato from Bleach? that was the 1st thing that came to mid when i saw the animation =D
max, the morphe guage fills up no matter what
it just fills up quiker if u use the combos they tell u to…
Ah, fixed, thanks ^^
Kaiser is a copy of a magic gladiator/warrior with Hyon armor in Mu Online. It is EXACTLY the same armor and wings. The transformation even flies the same way!
Google it for more info! 😀


_______
Although I would accuse Nexon of copying, I once wondered years ago what it would be like to have this type of warrior in Maplestory. :3
And btw, Dragon Armor in Mu Online can be altered in a way to turn it red to look like Kaiser’s armor.
The correct name is Dragon Armor, there is no such thing as Hyon armor, that’s just a pirate server with renamed items. Also, magic gladiators can’t wear helmets, the “warrior” class name is Dark Knight, or Blade Master after job advancement.
Hey, I haven’t played MU for 3 years… Lol I forget these things. Thanks for correcting me! 😀
Catalize is a copy of evans dragon spark -_-
Please… just shut the fuck up.
Kaiser=Holy Shit!
Totally making this class
so commander magnus is part of this race aswell
same horns, wings, sword etc
O_O, They call him….DRAGONBORN! DOVAHKIN!
Fus Ro DAH!!!!!
HAHA! That would be a perfect name. Now only if they had a shouting skill…
If we have to choose between light and dark, what was the point of the that orb icon on your screen that changes between light and dark
i think the choice between light and dark only affects the first job skills and some of the story line, You will still be able to use both dark and light skills no matter which choice you make i believe.
cool class
If we have to choose between light and dark what was the point of having that orb icon in your screen
It only affects like one skill, everything else is the same (I think).
Two weeks… I hardly doubt this patch will only contain Kaiser, I think it will contain those other job IDS…
Shyvanna.
Hehe, that’s what I thought too xd
Do you know what the card effect is for Kaiser, Max?
Not sure, I’ll try and see, but its possible it doesn’t have one yet 😛
I couldn’t understand the dark tutorial, but why did luminous destroy her house?
From what I understand, Luminous bears the curse of the Black Magician in which his power is part of Luminous. That’s why Luminous uses the dark/light skill system, because the dark side is the Black Magician’s magic.
In that moment, Luminous gets taken over by the Black Magician and destroys everything around him.
awww thats so sad, even after they went fishing! 😦
AGENT SUITS
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Unflinching Courage says 4o instead of 40%? And so for luminous you could choose your own desired element or it’s balanced?
Fixed ^^
I think the choice only affects your first job skills. Everything else is the same.
Is it just me or do these voice Fx on characters
Sound so sexy
Well well well, I am certainly enjoying the skills of Kaiser, as well as the whole “transforming” bit. It could use tweaks, no doubt. But I’ll reserve judgment until the official patch is released and I see some final skill tables.
Furries 😛
What’s the point of the collection album anyway?
I actually have no idea… but I’m still going to get them all!
we all know they gonna nerf it o.o…oh well lets see how ppl ks each other…kaiserkser lol a good ign
Yay!!! cant wait to see the tempest shop weapons and their stats. mainly i want to see the dual bowguns. i really REALLY like the color scheme and overall designs for the tempest weapons!!!
Kaiser should better be able to save Horntail then…
I feel like kaiser is going to get nerfed like the demon slayers after like 6 months
Wait… in the later jobs, does luminous still have the half/half thing?
Probably
Yes, it does.
Hmmm The Kaiser is way more stronger than the Luminious. They have huge damage,boost to def,mag def,attack,damage%,hp,ignore monster’s def,ignore some damage,critical and boss damage% 😀 I want to see the nerf already!!!! most things will be half 😀 and the % to give stats or instant death will go down ohhh and probably cooldowns go up :D. ks wars!!! Have fun Korea.*The update is still really nice* Oh and the 5th job may come. Max translated that there will be good things coming for high level people BUT like some one said up there ^ that if it really comes the new classes will also get the 5th!!!.
I meant abnormal statues ._.
I wouldn’t be surprised at all if Kaiser got nerfed incredibly hard. Nexon likes putting Warriors behind the 8 Ball…
Oh can anyone clear me this… Wasn’t the Aran who sealed away the Black Mage and not Luminious…?
In the Aran storyline, it just says that the 5 Legends defeated and sealed the Black Mage. It was left ambiguous on purpose.
in the silent crusade quests i believe Freud (and Afrien) are the ones who seal him away… idk these story lines are all mixed up
Aran = better spearman
Demonslayer = better dark knight
Kaiser = better dragon knight
sucks to be spear using adventurer
Youi know Dark knight and Dragon Knight are the same job right?
All these jobs are from the same line
Spearman > Dragon Knight > Dark Knight
Another warrior job that requires you to spam Atk…
Well at least the Skill-Link is nice
You’re not required to spam attack.
Unlike Aran, apparently the skills can be hotkeyed and the gauge doesn’t disappear if you don’t use it for a period of time. And unlike Slayer, it can simply spam skills while using pots to recover MP. It’s a vast improvement upon both, without the annoying drawbacks of either.
The only problem I have with it is that the gauge fills up slower when hotkeying instead of using commands. Using command/arrow keys is terribly inefficient, just like with Aran. But the impracticality is essentially a handicap, making Kaiser not as OP as one would think.
Can anyone explain what will happen if a player decided to choose either of the light/dark side? It does give out damage boost but what about the storyline and the 2nd, 3rd & 4th job skills?
As I see it, the only differences are:
1) The chosen element (light/dark) will be stronger then the second, because of the 1st job skill: light/dark magic enhancement
2) Your 1st job attacking skill is different
3) The storyline is different.
Besides that, nothing changed, it’s still the same job with light/dark system 🙂
some people said we hade a change in luminous gameplay, i think not, i you loook at the video the luminous light do the same thing of the first test in kmst,, maybe the only thing with a change is the storyline and the damage of darknnes and light for what side you chose, i think both luminous uses light and dakness but one is more powerfull in light and the other more powerfull in shadow
Thanks for any other informative site. Where else may just
I am getting that type of information written in such a perfect way?
I have a venture that I’m simply now running on, and I have been on the look out for such information.
Could Magnus be the same race wif kaiser? They have tails and horns and kaiser’s sword strike animation included a sword that looks like Magnus’
Could Magnus be the same race wif kaiser? Kaiser’s sword strike animation included a sword like Magnus’ and they have horns and tails
Im soooo coming back to KMS when Kaiser is out
ZOMGHORYSHET!!! Kaiser!?
now that is a “Dragon Warrior”!!! LOL
unlike that stupid piece of crap knock off from CMS. lol
Pretty sure there’s a Helisium Elite Class Shoe as well.
Yup! that is one amazing set.
If they do end up releasing the 5th job advancement. I wonder if it will only be for the adventurer class (explorers)? That should bring attention to them.
these skills seem overtly flashy and not maplestory, especially the part with swords floating above the head and the giant transformation 😦 maybe make the transformation a little smaller to match similar proportions to other classes…
well in my opinion
really? i was thinking Kaisers skills are a step down from flashy skills in recent classes such as Mercedes and Demon Slayer and Luminous. Almost as if there trying to bring skills back to the look they had right about when pirates came out. of course some skills (like the falling sword skill you mentioned) are still flashy and ‘new mapleish.’ well i guess most skills after 2nd job are pretty flashy, but 1st and 2nd job skills remind me of ordinary warriors
Max, is KMST always open?
Yep.
i hope the nova mage is an ice or lightning dragon…
Max I was wondering which events gave positive chaos scrolls. Im still waiting for them in GMS to finish my pirate 140 set but I havent seen a single one of them yet.
are all nova characters gonna be dragons i wonder? cause thatd kinda get really really old if we had 5 half dragon classes
So they took out transformation from pirates and gave it to Kaiser? Hmmm.
Well to be fair, Kaiser’s is much MUCH nicer.
wtf it’s Shyvana
would be cool if each nova race was a diffrent mythical creature
That’d be pretty astonishing. Imagine a job with all unicorn armor.
Mercedes reaction: Da fuq? o_o
Why does it say Freud and Mercedes were defeated, didn’t Demon Slayer only join when he was dead already, back then when he was alive Demon Slayer helped Black Mage right?
no no, after that battle, black mages gets sealed, so Ds betrayed before battle, he was taken down by balck mage there..
