KMST ver. 1.2.028 – Heroes of Maple Act 3?
Hey guys! It’s been a while since my last post, looks like a new Tespia patch was released today! No patch notes yet and I don’t think the game is up, but I manually patched my client and got some illustrations from Act 3 of Heroes of Maple!
EDIT: A few changes were made to Absolabs equipment! And some new stages were added to God of Control.
The difficulty of acquiring level 160 Absolabs equipment has been changed.
- The number of Absolabs Coins required to trade in for an Absolabs weapon has been decreased from 6 to 5.
- The number of Basic Energy Cores (A) required to trade in for 1 Absolabs Coin has been decreased from 50 to 30.
- The number of Advanced Energy Cores (S) dropped by Normal Suu has been increased.
The Star Force enhancement formula for equipment with a required level of 160 or higher has been changed.
- The 16th and higher stars’ attack, magic attack, and stats added have been increased.
The following changes have been made to God of Control.
- Stages 31~40 have been added.
- Stage 10’s platform movement range has been changed.
- Stage 14’s difficulty has been changed.
- Stage 23’s goals have been changed.
- Stage 29’s difficulty has been lowered, the previous difficulty has now become Stage 39.
- Stage 30’s difficulty has been lowered, the previous difficulty has now become Stage 40.
- After clearing a stage, you can now use <Challenge Mode> where the timer will be reset any time you hit a trap, in order to meet the remaining challenges.
As you may know from watching the ending of Act 2, Act 3 will be taking place in Seoul. And that means that our Heroes will have to go undercover! Here’s Mercedes‘ outfit.
Phantom looking spiffy as always. Although I’m not sure why his illustrations have brown hair while his NPC has blonde…
Someone named Gonan will be attending the party everyone’s at as well. Phantom should look out… I’ve heard about a famous detective with a similar name…
Luminous obviously has to be wearing black and white.
Looks like he’ll be hit by something and taken out… maybe the White Mage from Kinesis’ storyline will appear?
I think Evan will be staying onboard Abraxas this time, so his illustrations all look like they’re on a screen or something.
Speaking of which, Abraxas is going to be shot down?!
Finally, Damien appears! And is that the Transcendent Stone? Luminous, Mercedes, and Phantom will use their strongest attacks to try and defeat him (they actually do all use like 3-4 skills each on him at the same time, this is just a single frame!).
Oh yeah, here’s a cool new Abraxas Chair!
Would’ve loved to see casual-clothed Evan, Aran and Eunwol/Shade too.
You don’t want our poor Eunwol to travel through dimension and make everyone forgets about him again, ;(
That just makes him perfect for school. That one kid everyone forgets about.
Kellam didn’t have it this bad…
That chair looks dope
Yeah, definitely gonna get it! It’s from an event coin shop 🙂
no map? no monster?
Going through maps/monsters manually is 100x more annoying than just looking for NPCs haha.
OMG! It’s Detective Conan- I mean Gonan!!
omg tought same when i saw him *-*
Shhh, Nexon needs to avoid copyrights.
RIP in Pepporo— err I mean, Seoul, Abraxias
Thanks Nepu!!
I didn’t know women casually walked around Seoul in wedding dresses.
… Mercedes, what are you doing.
All of them, but Evan look like they’ll be attending a ball. Seems like the team kind of went liberal with the disguises when a lot of them still stand out.
mercedes what about your ears tho
rly wonder how seoul ppl won’t notice her elf ears
Athena Pierce works as a police officer in this world, despite having elf ears. Which is the world of Kinesis/FriendStory. Yep, they do have elves in Seoul for some reason.
haha gonan, thats just great lol
And Mercedes “best girl” rank soars…
Is Aran going undercover too? I can’t imagine her in a dress.
Probably the reason why she is not following them lol.
I get that they’re going to a party and that’s great and all, but I don’t understand why Mercedes and Phantom have to look drop dead gorgeous… The point was to not attract attention, not have every person at the party infatuated with them…
But Mercedes looks great in those heels.
Wait you can enhance weapons to 16 stars???? I thought max was 15?! Also how do u get the absolab shoulder its not in the shop?!?
The max enhancement for gms is 15stars. For kms is can go up to 25 , and 20 for msea
on ems is till 20 too but boom rate at 12+ is hight so most stay on 15-17* or just go to 13*
The max in KMS is 25 stars if the equipment is high levelled enough.
is there any word of the shoulder being released anytime soon?
I would assume Suu drops them…
i like the outfit that luminous is wearing. still he has good style in the story just wished the heros got a revamped feel. :3 but yeah this sounds to do. and that chair looks nice. 😀
What is the Transcendent Stone? That is a fairly new concept
Explained by Freud near the end of Act 2 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_Fl4XOPUlc)
English translation? XD
There are already subtitles
So… lemme get this straight. They come to our world. Mercedes is in a wedding dress. (and the second row first picture looks like Phantom made a comment about her boobs XD) Speaking of, Phantom is… nothing new, just some slight changes. Y U NO HAVE TUX? or a bowtie? Seriously, they really didn’t try with the classy.
Then Luminous. They did a good job.
Who’s Gonan? I have pretty much given up on the story thing since I recently started hearing about the comics, but from what it stands, is he luminous? If he is, then did they actually make a batman-detective out of him-> Black for the Dark knight, white for bruce wayne?
And speaking of the comics, how much of them are there? Anyone got a link? Because I’d really like to fill in some story plot holes left in the games, especially ones concerning Damien.
Thx.
“Gonan” is a parody of a famous manga/anime : Detective Conan. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Case_Closed
Maplf on Tumblr has translated a lot of MapleStory related stuff, including the comics about Orca and Suu, Damien, and Zero. http://maplf.tumblr.com/tagged/translations
thx max, really appreciate this!
and to the other guy, thx to you too.
I would love to see Kinesis being involved in this story
You and me both…
Aw, no fancy little Evan ;w;
I just want you to be aware that whatever ads you have running pushed me over the edge and now I’m using adblock again. Forced scrolling to a video ad with automatic sound? Seriously?
I don’t actually choose what ads appear… that definitely does sound annoying. I’ll try and see if I can figure it out!
