MapleStory RED!

MapleStory RED

At MapleStory 1st Festival, they have released information about this year’s summer update, MapleStory RED! Some of it is really exciting! I’m looking most forward to the Black Mage storyline additions, and obviously a certain reorganization~

Another conference will be held in June, giving further information.

Revolution

The first part of this update is Revolution! Along with the following, they mentioned increased security, an item restore system for hacked users, and an improved report feature.

Balancing

This involves balancing, for the Resistance, Knights of Cygnus, Heroes, and Nova classes. I think we already saw some of these changes in the previous patch.

Wait, what about Adventurers?

Adventurer Complete Overhaul

Don’t worry! Adventurers will be receiving a complete overhaul! They did show some tiny clips of the characters in game but I couldn’t really see anything… there were some cool quotes though!

  • The knight of absolute defense, Paladin
  • The undying Dark Knight
  • The warrior who maximizes damage, Hero
  • With powerful stacking DoT attacks, they rule over fire and poison, F/P Archmage
  • Freezing enemies then using shocking attacks, I/L Archmage
  • The core of any strong party, Bishop
  • Various cool rapid fire attacks, Bowmaster
  • Precise sniper of one shot, one kill, Marksman
  • MapleStory’s strongest instantaneous burst, Thief
  • Powerful and brilliant maneuvers, Pirate

Dual Blade & Cannon Shooter

Of course, Dual Blades and Cannon Shooter are also adventurers! They’ll be receiving special changes to become stronger!

Free Advancement System

They also mentioned something called the Free Advancement system! It says below “Advance to your desired job!”, but what does that mean? Maybe we can freely change our classes now…

Oh, you can also see the new art for the Adventurer magician, warrior, and archer. Other classes also received new illustrations but they’re not as drastically changed as these.

Adventurer Storyline Addition

storyline will be added for the Adventurers! Now, the real adventure will unfold!

Evolution

Next up is EvolutionThey mentioned that users who do not buy Cash will have just as much fun as those who do.

Reward UP

Rewards will be increased while playing MapleStory! I’m not sure what this means, but I guess you’ll get more stuff as you level up or something.

Auction House

A convenient way to trade items, the Auction House will be added! This is something a lot of people have wanted for a long time, haha.

Mobile Link

They mentioned the Mobile link, where you can link MapleStory to your phone. There’s not really any details about it but they did show Monster Life, which can probably link to Maple Village, the mobile game Nexon released a while back.

Delight

The final part of RED is Delight!

New Continent

A new continent, as well as new hunting grounds and new content will be added!

World Alliance

Something called a world alliance, where all characters from every world can be together in the same place! What?? I really doubt they’re going to merge all the worlds…

Commanders' Invasion

Real Time Commander Battle

The Black Mage’s Commanders are invading! Participate in a real time battle against them! Does anyone recognize the town shown in the first picture? Maybe it’s a new area…

1 vs 100 Boss Fight

A giant boss will result in a 1 vs 100 boss fight! Wow, 100 people fighting together, how big would that map have to be?

Boss PVP

Looks like Super Fight (PVP) will be returning with a new mode, where one person controls a boss monster and the other must defeat them!

Boss Rewards Enhanced

Boss rewards will be enhanced to make them stronger!

Profession Huge Reorganization

The profession system will be receiving a huge reorganization! This includes being able to create scrolls!

Next, they showed this video, starting at 3:50 (thanks to Spadow!), titled MapleStory: The Child of God. As you can see, it features many of the commanders of the Black Mage as well as a new one! Who could this man with glasses be? Finally, we see that the goddess of time, Rhinne has been captured! Who are those two blonde haired children, and what do they have to do with the Tears of the Goddess?

Spadow found new job IDs with the quests that were added in last patch, which have to do with Rhinne, the Child of God, and even places called the Shadow Temple and the Mirror World. Interesting, isn’t it?

V

Finally, they ended off with this. V… could it finally be coming?

    Please Nexon, do the balancing right.
    Balancing means everyone is just as strong, not 2 specific classes are the strongest. -_-

        May 20, 2013 at 12:20 am

        yea seriously i like how BaMs have that dark feel to them now they are turning them into some lame class with red aura and green aura really -_- Really -_- REALLY -_- they took out dark shock they took out dark genesis they took out revive they took out everything that made BaMs cool really and battle rage no longer has a cool down wtf really -_- that is stupid now i must take it off every time i want to hit more than 1 enemy -_- i like that they made it so that you do not have to press a new key/button to use battle kings bar but they made it so weak in comparison 1 its dmg was decreased from 520-330 and stack decreased from 7-6 -_- so any complaints i love that they wanted to revamp but come on how about making it so that revive could work at a 5% chance on bosses? that would have been a USEFUL change and oh i forgot to mention that they took out hyper dark chain -_- and they took out finishing attack -_- and at this point im in speculation as to what happens to the 60sec duration of Body boosters effects for dark aura and yellow aura if they are still placed to 90 secs via union aura now to be replaced with BATTLE MASTER -_-

      Yeah, let’s do that. Let’s make everyone equally powerful. Then it all balances out, especially classes that have heal/drain, loads of ignore DEF, skills that add boss damage, instant revive skills, etc. Yup, that sounds fair to those classes that got none of those.

    • tangowited
      May 19, 2013 at 3:06 pm

      You’re stupid if you hadnt realized that nexon will never try to balance all the jobs. If they’re trying to advertise and get people to play a newly released class, why would they make it the same strength as every other existing class? It only makes itnot as appealing to play. Maple story is a business so they’re going to do nearly anything to get heightened interest and revenue. Also they have updates every six months which usually introduce new classes or revamps, during these times, maple story would want players to play those classes, not the preexisting ones. That’s also why they Nerf classes6 months after its release.

        Not make all the characters have the SAME strength, but at-least make them more balanced. At the current time Explorers take a few minutes to defeat the mushroom kingdom boss at level 30-40 but a Kaiser can kill it in a few seconds at level 30-40…

          characters that have plot coupons to be stronger than normal people should be stronger than normal people. period. this is not a game of checkers, not every piece on the board should be identical in capability.

          if every class is equal to every other class what’s the point of having more than one class?

          would you suggest that superman should be no stronger than batman?

          adventurers, normal cygnus(so, not instructors like mikhail), and normal resistance(so not the demon or zenon, who are “hero” characters for that “race”) SHOULD lag behind the *legendary heroes* and physical gods (nova). maybe not as much as they presently do, but those characters that are meant to be “unique” beings in the gameworld/story and *aren’t available to be made at all times* should still stand above. otherwise where’s the purpose? if not for that they might as well be NPC-only.

      dont you just love it when warriors, magician and archers are mentioned all the job whilst Thief and Pirate they give a damm?

      Job racist much.. oh ya… where is cygnus revamped thief and magician… only warrior, archer and pirate…

      It seems nexon doesnt care about thief job classes anymore… is seems that thief job classes when receive the least amount of revamps. I am not sure about you guys but i do like to see some thief job appears in the spotlight every now and then… and… Xenon doesnt count.

      Some adventures thieves or cygnus thief… I been seriously waiting for Cygnus revamp Thief… but sadly there is none.

      Thieves in Maplestory… *facepalms*

        Xenon was only just released, so i guess they will update thief koc as last. also BaM has received a big overhaul (not that it improved anything orso) but thats why they will probably update koc mage before thief koc i guess, but idk all of this for sure ofcourse…

        • reader
          May 19, 2013 at 6:28 pm

          yeah they teied it out in JMST a while back (2011?) called the Rebirth system(転生システム) where adventurers can switch to another adventurer class after lvl 50.
          the test failed miserably because you were able to carry over ALL skills from your previousjob and all AP, screwing over any existing, non-rebirthed characters (not to mention bowmasters with advanced combo :/ )

          With that caveat said, I do believe letting players switch classes is the only way to appease these bastards. Everyone only cares about the jobs they’ve spent money on and it’s endless bickering. They should let people convert all their stats and equips into that of the new job so everyone goddamn character could be a fucking Night Lord or a Mercedes or an Angelic Burster.
          For Christ’s sake DPS is not the only metric and even if you’re the strongest job at any given point in time, there’s NO way YOU bitching pieces of shit would be able to beat a super-funded top player.

          • Bar
            May 20, 2013 at 9:19 am

            Well, my meaning was, that when you turn into another Adventurer job, your AP will reset, you’ll get new skills with resetted SP, but not any additional SP/AP.

          • Dark Evan
            May 20, 2013 at 4:26 pm

            I’d love JMS’s rebirth, it would benefit mages a lot, because they all use the same weapons (except Luminous and Kanna, plus Battle Mages can’t use wands) And it would be especially awesome if you could chain rebirth. Then my Evan could follow in Freud’s footsteps and “delve into all areas of magic” just like Freud did. With chain rebirth, I could reborn a F/P, get to 200, reborn a I/L, get to 200, reborn a Bishop, get to 200, reborn a Battle Mage, get to 200, and then reborn a Blaze Wizard, get to 120, wait for Revamp, and then get to 200, and maybe even 250, and use all six skill trees at once, because all six skill trees use staves Mages deserve to be OP for once lol.

            Arans could only use Drk Skills with their own, Heroes (1h sword/2h Sword/1h axe/2h axe) could only use DW / DW / N/A / N/A, Mihile / Kaiser / DS / N/A, and Paladin Skills depending on their weapon, Pallys could only (1h sword/2h sword/1h bw/2h bw) use DW/ DW / N/A / N/A, Mihile / Kaiser / DS / N/A skills, and Hero / Hero / N/A / N/A Skills, Dawn Warrior (1h/2h) would get Hero, Pally, and Mihile/Kaiser Spear using Drks would get zip while PA users would get Aran skills, Bowmasters and Wind Archers would be stuck with eachother, same with WHs and MMs, DBs could use shad skillz but maybe not the other way around, NLs and NWs would be stuck together, Mechs and Sairs (and Jett) will always have eachother, while Buccs and TBs will get eachother, and Xenon, Merc, Lumi, DA, Cannoneer, Kanna, Hayato, and Phantom would get… noone! Every mage not listed could be used with eachother with a staff, and all of them except Battle Mages would work with a wand.

    Well first of all, I think at the end the goddess of time cried or something and her tears magically and sarcastically turned into babies (why don’t you cry some more and….) which I’m guessing its the new job IDs spadow found. Yay! New jobs with OP skills! And good job nexon ditching Blaze Wizard and Night Walkers like that…. I was looking foward to the night walker too……

    And V, fifth job?!

    And the glasses man (my theory) could be the one who captured the goddess or whatever.

    Adventurers update with storylines, how will that work?

    Pvp will probably be like popular for five days…..

    And for god sakes nexon, I WANT BATTLEMAGE NOT TECHNOLOGY ROCKS!

    • Jegudiel
      May 19, 2013 at 2:41 pm

      I doubt that they would ignore Blaze Wizards and/or Night Walkers like that. If anything, this adventurer revamp will give us a glimpse of how they’d revamp those two classes.

      And I was under the impression that the Demon Slayer was the one who captured the goddess of time.

      Also, I’m definitely looking forward to the storylines. This makes me wonder if each sub-class (sub-classes of a warrior adventurer would be page, spearman, and fighter) would have a different storyline.

      This also makes me wonder what would happen to the existing adventurers? I have a 150 paladin, and I actually want to run through the story line myself. If that were the case, I hope that they scale the enemies that we have to fight to our level, but they have a base level so players can’t just run through it like that. Hopefully they get to have epic boss fights and one-on-one fights with bosses in storyline quests.

      I’d also bet that they’ll change the way job advancement works. As in we have different quests for them, because let’s face it, collecting 30 marbles for 2nd job and fighting some clone isn’t exactly that thrilling of a story line.

      Needless to say, I’m expecting a lot from the story line. Hopefully they don’t disappoint.

    New Jobs? I swear they’re going to over shadow the Adventurer overhaul no matter how awesome it is. For the balancing of other classes I think that is just finishing up the KoC overhauls and the Resistance one, then they’ll just buff up what is needed of the newer classes.

    I hope that the changes are done for the good with amazing animation. and yay the fifth job. an award for those training hard to reach lv 250. Spadow said its a warrior class because of the job id number. 5th job should start somewhere around 170 least to 200 max. which sounds fair but kind of hard to accomplish. I also would like the storyline to be unique to every class. I can’t wait to see how people complain to the changes done to adventurers but previously complained about their damage. (sarcasm)

    weap ( u will need for every job a weap and equipt to get and scroll)

    positive:
    if u can use skills from other jobs like use 2 jobs at same time every one cold be pretty unique….

    BUT IM SURE there will not be a class change xD… or maybe u can just change 1 time if u are sik of ur curent class… (i world directly change my bish to something awesome xD (lv. 163.)

      May 20, 2013 at 12:18 pm

      Yeah, it’s definitely fifth job. The skill tabs goes from roman numeral I, II, III, and IV( each for a job). That V looks like a roman numeral, so there’s no doubt about it.

      Something about the pirates’ and thieves’ descriptions and artworks really bother me. They just say thieves and pirates, not the individual jobs like shadower or corsair like they did for the mages, archers, and warriors. Is this a mistake or are they planning to combine night lord and shadower into one job, and buccaneer and corsair into one job also? The artworks show the thief holding both a star and dagger, and pirate having knuckles and gun on each hand.

  57. Ezunaiel
    May 20, 2013 at 12:18 pm

    I want them to revamp classes so that every person is unique, not just the class. Like, you know how some games, a mage would either choose to raise offensive or supportive skills. So, if you run into one, they could be a great damage dealer or a supportive party member, but they’d be the same class. Like, everyone builds their skills their own way and give some uniqueness to each character. For us, we could have War Bishops AND Saint Bishops. Know what I mean?

    Also, I’m betting the two new classes are Warrior (due to Spadow’s info) and an Archer. Why? Because those archetypes of heroes are the bases of gaming. Yeah, there’s always a mage, but KMS has too many good mages. Hehe.

    I want a better Wild Hunter upgrade though. Now that they made the delay for Jaguar attacks more miniscule, it’s gonna be really unique seeing someone claw monsters and shoot em down too. But, they should probably give Wild Hunters not a Hurricane, but a Snipe skill. Wild Arrow Blast is cool and all, but a 7 hit arrow barrage would lool cooler and they could fix the damage, too.

    For 5th jobs, I doubt they’re gonna add new class names. There’s too many. But, they should start giving classes better support for their weaknesses. Like, for Archers how their immobility prevents enjoyment, they could add more flexibility in their movements.

    P.S. GIVE WILD HUNTERS A BLACK OR GOLD PHOENIX AND LET IS SPAM ATTACK OR GIVE THEM SOME KIND OF EXTRA HITTER. LIKE PHANTOMS CARDS OR WINDBREAKERS ARROWS. Our Jaguars should give extra Final Attack.

    • Bob
      May 20, 2013 at 7:07 pm

      Umm, sounds like a wild hunter fan. I am a fan of the job but i dont play it o3o. I would love to see it more balanced because it is far too weak due to delays. With delays shortened, it is now more bare-able.
      Now i just want them to release all the jobs in one go. It is Very unfair that some jobs get to be “stronger” than others even if it is just 1 month or week. If it is released like 1 day after the other i wouldnt mind that much.
      Lets say that V means 5th job. That just means that the “revamp” is going to be less thrilling from 1st to 4th job because they are going to concentrate less on those skills and more on 5th job. If they do, i have a feeling all the other current weak jobs are forever going to be in their corner, getting looked down on until 5th job; that is if they are strong at 5th job…..

      Anyway, nexon really needs to decide thing faster… if they plan to release 5th job at least do it with the revamp such as Phantom’s, Mercs, WHs, and BaM. That way it is less annoying changing crap all over again… Now look at hyper skills. What is the point if we get 5th jobs? Are they going to make Hyper skills for 5th job as well and call it Hyper Skills 2? It just gets more complicated and it is just more work for them…

    Why are people being so stupid? Maplestory is an RPG and that means certain classes are stronger than others.

Balancing the game would make everyone quit because there is no way to feel like you achieved something in the game!

    You guys are very off on this “RED” Revolution Evolution Delight update. To think that this update goes first? NO. We have another update called Cygnus Knights Returns before RED, and that update is one step ahead. After the coming of Xenon and Demon Avenger and Unleashed, Nexon will schedule a whole update for “Cygnus Knights Returns”. THIS UPDATE WILL REVAMP ALL CYGNUS KNIGHT CLASSES except certain classes. The classes are called “Fighter (Thunder Breaker)”, “Wind Breaker (Wind Archer)”, and “Soul Master (Dawn Warrior)”. There is no Mihile revamp. And after that RED will come. RED will include EXPLORERS HAVING THEIR OWN STORYLINE, and an ALL CLASS REVAMP. And the things they said in the RED video.

    Is everyone happy now? I just gave precious information none of you even knew.

    Well the gap between the rich and the poor is closing up. As in if you have 50 bil you wiil be the same as people who have 10 mil. Nx buyers are still going to slaughter everyone and everthing in the game. Nuff said

    Also you guys are retarded. V clearly means vaginal birth. You’ll now be able to make slave-babies that are the same as pets but require way more money and effort. HURRAY FOR RED!
