kMSt ver. 1.2.451 – Paladin Skill Changes!
Another patch was released in Tespia, this time massively buffing up Paladins and their Hyper Skills! There’s also some minor changes to a couple of other classes~
Unrelated but they put a couple of new Hot Times in for Hangawi and the prizes include 4 slot Chair and Title Bags, just like for ores and herbs! I am in love~
Skill Changes
Paladin
- Smite: number of hits has been increased from 3 to 6, range has been increased
- Sacrosanctity: cooldown has been decreased from 600 seconds to 300 seconds
- Advanced Charge Blow: damage has been decreased from 400% to 270%, number of hits has been increased from 2 to 6, number of monsters hit has been increased from 6 to 8, range has been increased
Dark Knight
- Dark Force – Critical Rate: critical chance has been increased from 10% to 20%
- Dark Force – Critical Damage: minimum critical damage has been increased from 10% to 20%
Bishop
- Holy Symbol – Experience: experience boost has been increased from 10% to 20%
- Holy Symbol – Imbue Body: resistance to states and elements has been decreased from 20% to 10%
- Holy Symbol – Extra Drop: drop rate boost has been increased from 20% to 30%
Oh yeah, they also changed it so that shields are now treated like the Soul Shield or other secondary weapons, meaning they can now have weapon potential!
In addition, 5 new boss monsters, the Fallen Chief Knights have become available as Cores in the Evolving System. This brings the total up to 8, including Pianus, Manon, and Griffey~

big ass tittied PS SHAKAR SUCKS
whe dw ta lil ment ba?
second
Nice!
Cool 😀
dam dat charge blow
CHEATED TO 2ND
Wait… hit # increased from 2-6, increase from 6-8? does that mean it just went 2-8?
8 is supposed to be the number of monsters you can hit.
6 is supposed to be the hit count.
It’s a typo. I believe it’s
Hits: 6
Monsters: 8
And damn that damage. About time.
Sorry, fixed, above are correct ^^
jay must be happy.
hi tim
Wooo teacher fiora!!!
i think it would be cool of orca was a class and in the gender select u can pick between her and su i know its not real i just think it makes sense since she joined them (which is still weird cus SHE was the one who founded the black wings which is who the resistance is fighting i find that irony HILARIOUS XD)
actually i think su is orca’s twin sis but ya it would be soooo epic if orca was a class, i mean why not they made mikhail who has no real purpose on being a class sooo why not orca who could offer a cool story, but if they do i would think that orca would be a mage cuz she fights with magic stuff unless they make her a mage thief that uses magic throwing stars which would be epic and obviously they would make it gender locked
idk about gender lock since u can say “obv gender lock” on pahntom and merc and luminous and kaiser but yea its be pretty cool :3
Its not obvious, but to me luminous would be better a female…
charge blow is stronger than blast now -_-
holy crap
yay more bishop buffing cause we need it
there is a slot bag that holds the chairs now?
Ya hoooo!~~ And dude stop complaining….. A pally needs to get Adv Charged Blow to even use the skill so how is it unfair? Dont forget that it is harder to get the books now since the bosses only drops like none or 2 books max.
I wasn’t complaining, I just think that it’s stupid for ACB to do more damage than blast is all. It makes blast useless.
Ok, smite is a fair hyper skill now. Ugly, but fair f3
But sacro is still terrible compared to valhalla. Even with half the cooldown it’s still only 10% of your gamplay time when you can activate it, while hero’s valhalla is 33%. Not to mention none of valhalla’s buffs leave any question about it’s awesomeness, while just “how invincible” sacrosanctity’s invincibility really is leaves a whole load of question marks.
Such as “does it protect form damage reflects, or lets damage pass by them like for example f/p archmages megiddo flame does? Am i safe from seduce when in sacrosanctity? Does it shield from magnus battle insta kill traps? Or aswan ones?
Such tiny questions pop up in my head.
As for acb, it’s right down vicious now f3
Uh what. Sancro bypasses DR, grants 100% status resistance, can’t be hit at all…it’s 30 seconds of uninterrupted DPS. Valhalla sucks dick in comparison.
Vallhala is only good for not losing adv combo attack and not getting seduced. Sacro is legit god mode and ive seen videos of it working in jump quest. I’m not sure if it works against magnus but it probably will. It’s epic why do you keep complaining about a good skill? Invincibility also increases your dpm becuase you wont have to heal ever. Also even if it doesnt work against damage reflect smite makes all of the monsters unable to move for a limited amount of time and you can use crash right after it runs out to make them not even able to cast reflect for a while. Paladins got it good they just dont want to admit it.
haha I like how you posted the reddit page with the skin info. Good man.
Oh man that was totally by accident lmao.
haha nbd. It lets me to know that I should save up RP for the skins :p
number of hits has been increased from 2 to 6, number of * hits has been increased from 6 to 8
*Monsters?
Wow charge blow maximum damage went from 800% to 1620%!!!!!! thats a difference of 820% they increased it more than double! and that’s more chances to do 1m in each hit. Cool for them. and the hit and range increasement was cool too because it was like a less efficient Armageddon from the Luminious. Sacrosanctity needs less cooldown. Still cool.
Dude… ACB is like Dark Impale and Raging Blow. Paladins aren’t supposed to have that kind of ridiculous damage output. Plus, it’s stronger than Blast.
What exactly did they do with the secondary weapons for classes that use shields since shields get weapon potential?
They’re still there, I guess you can just choose between them? Although you’d miss out on all your shield skills :S
Plus the secondary weapons don’t have slots, do they? So I guess in most cases it’s still better to have a shield (assuming you can scroll it)? Even for classes that don’t have shield skills. :T
Just use your brain then you will know ,idiots that just only know to keep complaining without further thinking , now you can have a stronger reason to choose to use 2h weapon if you not having problem with attack speed ,even you are paladin that suppose to only wield an 1h weapon to use along with his shield , don’t forget the sword drop by magnus that give 400weapon attack ,now worth to be use on paladin as well.
Hey Max, or someone awser me off question: Mikhail/Mihile can participate on new pvp? Grand Battle? Thanks.
I am Pally and even though I apreciate the changes, I am pretty sure they are going to nerf advanced charge before this reaches kms
Hey Max, judging by Fiel’s extractions, I think the boost to Berserk/Dark Force is to the Hyper Skills, and not actual skill in 4th job itself. Just thought I’d point it out because you split up the Holy Symbol Hyper Skill changes separately.
Ah you’re right, fixed~
Well whatever. They should just lower it to 1404% (6 hits of 234%) and increase the blast damage. Even if the skill is strong They don’t have as many buffs as the other warriors!.
Title bag… I wa- wait I don’t have any titles anyways. But It would still be cool… Would they be in the etc tab or setup?
samnkfsdnhaklfvncdsxnvn kxlczsn aknv kf;dasa SO GOOD
-seizure-
Title bags came two years too late…I already tossed like five or six titles ;_;
I still have like twelve titles (that can’t be reobtained) filling up my meager 28 equip slots so title bags would still be greatly appreciated.
Seriously I was hoping the Title Window would let us store all our unwanted titles in a neat collection but only two-thirds of all titles can be registered; almost all event titles cant be reobtained.
In hindsight I should’ve just kept expanding equip slots with cash, even if it was stupid -_-
Since now shield is treated like Secondary weapon potential. Can ue show us
the potential for the shield from lvl 10 – highest lvl ???
iwana see wthr maple shield can get Bossing% pdr eg. 30% 35% 40%
http://i.imgur.com/CwOkE.png – Level 10 Shield with 1% Total Damage
http://i.imgur.com/CilhI.png – Shield with +2 Weapon Attack.
hmm I like the small updates for bishops
imean shield legendary potential highest Bossing/ pdr % are???
from lvl 10 – highest lvl.
lvl 100 legend highest potential of Boss is 35%….pdr should be 18 or 21.
I hope acb wont get nerfed… Plzzzzzzz nexon!!
Yay we got what we deserved! :3
Don’t think so. Shadowers, Corsairs and Buccaneers have more OP mobbing skills and I’m pretty sure there are more classes with much more stronger mobbing skills but I’m too lazy to check.
Then what will happen to my 22% shield… Omg this is bad…..
22% of wat??? STR? Attack??
u still can use because yr shiled can scroll att, new secondary cannot scroll.
any pic to
any picture to prove this point ??
So if ifm a hero, using 1h swrd with a shield is btr
or 2h swrd with secondary weapon btr which has higher dmg multiplier??
It’s great that they changed paladin’s hyper skill; i wish they changed megiddo flame though..
My shield is 22%str 14att damn that stupid change I think I will go 2handed now -.- and wth? Acb have higher base damage than raging bl0w? So pallies have high def, high surviving chance AND high att? What’s the point of having hero then? Not mentioning we need to charge up combo orbs
base % cannot determine much. heroes naturally have higher attack, and according to basilmarket, heroes’ damage is 2.03x that of a paladin’s. imo it will take paladins a lot more to hit as much as a hero besides the %…
Just cube it if you think it’s a problem… This is kinda unfair for classes that use shields such as a bandit. Classes with 2h weapons can equip the secondary weapon with no problem, but us shield wielding folks have to decide whether to use a shield or the secondary weapon.
then you think paladin no need to charge up? without any charge, our damage are crap. Heros has always been in the top damage for the adventurer warrior class. It will always be.
Drk is now the problem. So heros definitely has no right to complain when compare to paladin and drk.
When it comes out to GMS?
“Shields can now have weapon potential.”
About damn time. Now give Shads more shields.
Khanjars can have potential, lmao.
Max , you didnt add on now acb range to 350%
weren’t there some more changes, like for f/p mages and mihiles?
am i the only one who noticed 4slot chairs and title bags?
Paladin have it easy now. Everyone should stop complaining about them now, lol.
really miss the days of loladin. haha
But it seems that the protest by kms paladin players take effect.
we protest bcuz the defensive buffs for pallies were completly unnecesary in all the parches, now at least we can have some more % of damage and keep our godly def =)
def in maple story is not really that important but it helps. I am happy that the kms paladin protest is successful. Hope there is no more inviincibility or def buff for paladin. We have too much.
Future: Nexon releases new class that is all about tanking even more than pallies.
Pallies: Omg we want more def
Wowzors
Could of sworn I was first…
dude i bet u never played hero be4, wth are u on? I said hero need to “charge up” combo orbs, meaning we need to hit at least 5 times to get full pink orbs around us and u said pally need to charge up wtf? U guys just have to recast charges when dispelled, seriously I don’t think u fully understand what I was talking about
sp paladin do not need to recharge when dispel? you are the noob hero here. stop disgracing hero. I have play hero to lvl 17x. So why are you making noise here? WHy are you the only hero who complain? STOP DISGRACING HERO HERE PLEASE!
Your grammar is terrible.
shut up, faggot.
charging up orbs isn’t even a problem, it only takes around 5 seconds and you guys get +120% damage (including the hyper skill buff) from it so it’s worth it. not to mention you guys have 120% boss damage purely from skills not equips -.-
Wow rude people on Internet much? PLEASE talk after u played a hero, ok so when ur bossing as a hero, you have to have to hit at least five times to charge up to full orb, then use enrage, now all ur orbs are gone, means u have to recharge again, but remember now with enrage you only can hit one mob, takes about two to three hit to get full orb again, if the boss debuffed us? gg now recharge all the orbs again, keep in mind that you have to recast AND recharge the orbs again which is very annoying, and without knowing me you called me a faggot? My shield costed a lot of nx to get to that much %str, who wouldnt’t be mad after you finally you get the potential you desired then boom that pot is now useless since weapon potential are much easier to cube than normal gear potential.
i have a level 178 hero you dumb faggot. stop crying we already do 2x more damage than paladins and DKs. and do i have to mention this again? YOU DO 120% BOSS DAMAGE SO IT’S WORTH IT!
and you don’t even have to use the secondary weapon.
Faggot? Wow rude people on Internet these days, can u guys PLEASE play hero before u talk? When ur bossing takes at least 5, max 10 hit to get to full orb, then enrage which need another 10 orb, but from now on I only can hit 1 mob so the orbs charge up slowly, then if debuffed, gg time to recharge all over again, and remember hero have to recast aca and recharge the orbs up again, look I understand that pally have been underpowered for a long time, but no need to call me a faggot, and who wouldn’t be mad when they finally get to the potential on equipment they desired and only to find out that there’s a much better potential available after like 6 month? And yes it costed a lot to cube that shield
Haha, don’t take it too seriously bro. It’s only just a game. (Different Person)
I dun see 120% boss?? whr ue get another 100 from?? -let me know-
Shield now treated as Secondary weapon,possible if lvl 100 shield can get 70% Bossing 30% Pdr ?
If ue are a paladin or a hero which shield is ideal??
he’s just letting out the hate on hero, I use lv110 dragon shield as it’s tradable and pretty good for cubing, or you could use lv100 crossshielder which can be obtained via CWPQ bonus stage, hope this helped
Yes it’s possible on legendary pot and I use lv110 dragon shield cos more base str and Im guessing u use crossshielder? I’m planning on magic anvil so I can get the look of crossshielder on my shield XD
And I believe he mean 20% not 120.
So Imperial / vip warrior (127) loses to crosshielder?
igot maple shield wa 23 that means its wasted ??
Maple shield is 1st tier so extremely hard to get great pot on it, 3rd tier is much easier and no a VIP shield is the best possible but they’re hard as hell to find

2000=Hero
3000=Resistance
5000=CK Instructor
6000=Nova
What’s the 4000?
its orca lolololololol :3
yar what is Job ID 4XXX?………………. if there is any? O,o
Adventurer Warriors suck ass…
In fact they’ve always sucked ass… since the beginning. They always get KSed, they got nothing but close combat skills (dont even dare to include Dragon Roar and Shout as long range skills, cus they suck ass too), and it doesnt even matter how much of a stand alone solo boss damage racking whore or defense tank that you claim they are. They’re not…
The only thing Explorer warriors are good for is gettting PWNed and being HyperBody, Rage, and CombatOrders, mules.
Aran, Demon Slayers, MikFail, and Kaiser are the TRUE WARRIORS.
And KMS has always been favoring Mages and Bowmans, and puts Thieves at 3rd best, and Pirates at shit last all these years!!
KMS hates Pirates!!, but Loves Ninjas and Aliems!! (hence subsidizing Jett for GMS)
meh,
Dawn Warriors and MikFail sucks just as bad and Advent/Explorer Warriors. ~_~
I miss the days of OP’d Soul Driver (250%dmg 4 attacks and 200% something ranged)
Pwning other KSers @ Gallops…TwistedJesters….WindRaiders… 😦
So 6 hits attack count ACB will be available in MapleSEA too? 🙂
