“Arcane Shade Suit (35 main stat/secondary stat, 9 attack/magic attack, 10% defense ignore, 12 slots)”
You sure that’s accurate? Seems terribly low base stats.
Whoops, should be 85 main/secondary stat.
Hey Max, I went back to the 5th job post, and noticed that you added the animations for MOST of 5th job skills, but I can’t help but notice a few are missing *cough*Evan’s Elemental Blast*Cough*
Any reason you left those out? Is it a WIP?
Or did you forget to finish? Were there Technical issues?
Or if you got them from somwhere else, could you point me the way?
(Although since you didn’t cite/credit your source, you’re probably still self-extracting)
Yeah the program that I used couldn’t extract gifs for some skills, including Elemental Blast because its so gigantic xP
I’m guessing that the Arcane Shade sets are acquired from beating the Touhou-lite fairy? Joy to the world.
Also that young Lucid… makes me wonder what happened to her.
Bro..
Evan’s Elemental Blast: A timeline through the ages:
KMST 1.2.035 5th job & Road to Vanishing FIRST DRAFT Level 50: Consumes 1000 MP. Use 4 consecutive magic spells that deal 600% damage 6 times on up to 15 enemies. Cooldown: 150 seconds
KMST 1.2.036 5th job and road to vanishing SECOND DRAFT: Level 50: Consumes 1000 MP. Use 4 consecutive magic spells that deal 1500% damage 6 times on up to 15 enemies with an additional 100% critical rate. Cooldown: 60 seconds
KMS 1.2.259 Road to Vanshing FINAL: Level 20: Consumes 1000 MP. Use 4 consecutive magic spells that deal 900% damage 6 times on up to 15 enemies with an additional 100% critical rate. Cooldown:60 seconds.
KMS 1.2.261 Server issues: Level 20: Consumes 1000 MP. Use 4 consecutive magic spells that deal 1350% damage 6 times on up to 15 enemies with an additional 100% critical rate. Cooldown: 60 seconds.
KMST 1.2.038 City of Dreams FIRST DRAFT: Level 25: Consumes 1000 MP. Use 4 consecutive magic spells that deal 1500% damage 6 times on up to 15 enemies with an additional 100% critical rate. After attacking, your final damage is increased by 5% per different elemental spell hit. Cooldown: 60 seconds.
If you’ll notice, it was the strongest it ever was in the test server RIGHT before it went live.
… That is, until now.
Now it’s EXACTLY the same as then, EXCEPT it takes less fusion to max it out, and 5% final damage per spell hit.
Lucid was like… an elf in Shade’s story? How’d she get out of the ice?
Since she has command over dreams, isn’t it possible that she’s still frozen?
Frozen for hundreds of years but still conscious, that might explain why she turned evil.
My buddy Neo is on to it- because if you do some of the Shadow Perion stuff, you would know that she has yet another sprite, and something about her being asleep as the ‘Transcendent(this part is probably poor translation on GMS) of dreams, and that she is supposed to be asleep until someone takes her place.’
Regardless of GMS translation confusion, what is certain is the Black Mage gets ahold of her, and strikes a deal- freedom in exchange for an alliance/friendship. She’s not really as ‘Evil,’ as the others.
She is probably the one commander I feel for the most. Everyone else so far was so focused on greed. Hilla, Arkahuim, Magnus, Gelimer, Damien. Von Leon, Orchid, and Lotus had other reasons, but they weren’t really put in such a corner. And then who knows why the Spider king really joined?
That moment when Guwaru doesn’t play much part in the story that he is completely forgotten…
So much this. 😦
She didn’t get out. This map is based on Lucid’s dream.
So. You’re basically fighting her inside of her dreams.
Looks awesome! Thank you!
Does the weapon give no attack? or is it just different for every weapon?
If this is it, then the weapons are terrible
It is a typo i think. It actually does give attack. See http://uni-wz.com/
It does, see http://uni-wz.com/
Yeah they obviously have attack/magic attack lol. I’m adding pictures of them now since its not feasible to list all their stats 😛
Is that a brand new dawn warrior skill? Can you find the animation for it?

just when i thought if i reach lvl 210 i can reach the end of this game now you are telling me i have to be lvl 220 to even get a little near and lvl 230 to fight new boss 😐 btw im lvl 205
why the fuck is nexon nerfing aran so hard.. they already nerfed his damage like a bitch and now theyre taking our attack speed like ???? we don’t even have high dps to begin with and every time we activate that stupid 5th job skill, we have to use maha’s domain
yea i might just switch mains since he’s getting hit this hard for no reason
Question! When you say Dark Spear’s speed was decreased, do you mean it’s faster or slower?
slower
Does it mean that it deals slower (-> less -> nerf) hits, or that the animation is slower (-> more time to deal hits -> buff)?
II don’t know 100%, but to me, reading that the attack speed was decreased means it will deal less hits.
“Big Huge Gigantic Cannonball: attack speed has been decreased, cooldown has been increased”
The patch notes on southperry say the opposite?
빅 휴즈 기간틱 캐논볼 : 공격 속도가 감소되고 재사용 대기시간이 증가됩니다.
공격 속도가 = attack speed
감소되고 = reduced
재사용 대기시간이 = cooldown
증가됩니다 = increased
😦 that makes me sad but ok thanks.
Wind Archers
Monsoon: cooldown has been decreased

Disappointed with the set. Cra remains superior.
aye
Disappointed with the set, cra remains superior.
lol.. the weapons have like double the base attack
In the interview with the director or something, he said that at the end of the Arcane River, you will meet the black mage. Any info on that, now that the last area has been released?
Maybe the quests mention him but I don’t see any new Black Mage NPC or anything like that. TBH this probably isn’t the end of Arcane River 8)
honestly the new set will be good if it has top/bottom instead of overall, only need to go up to 5 set to maintain the same set stats as RA set. namely hat, top, bottom, weapon, shoulder for the set with out breaking tyrant or gollux set
you have to remember that KMS does not have gollux set. Also they can be star force up to 25 stars in KMS.
After checking the stats of the weapons on uni’s blog, all I can say is that this is quite sad TT.TT
The Arcane Shade Set loses to cRA + 15 star tyrants in just raw stats, even before comparing the whole top + bottom vs overall thing by 50 all stat more for using the complete arcane shade but you get around 120 attack more for using cRA + 15 star tyrants assuming both sets are primed and everything is 15 stars as per the current GMS cap. Wins by a good bit in KMS due to over 15 stars, but in GMS this sadly loses by a landslide as 50 all stat just won’t beat over 100 attack / magic attack extra no matter what your potentials are for any class. If NexonNA looks at your comment section, then PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let the damned thing use the transpose system from Sweetwater or just give some freaking over 15 star cap or nebulites plus the additional options system at the same time so we can match and beat the power of perfect cRA + Tyrants with the new set. PLEASE.
How exactly are you compairing them? Also I believe for overalls you double it to make up for losing an equip slot.
Hi, I’m not sure if you know this but if the set were to have more than 15 stars could it somehow make up for the loss in range? Just wondering 😮
Ok …Lets do this thing. . .super long matchup: START
(going to count stats as all stat cause its all equal amounts of stats whenever it has multiple stats)
Root Abyss Set Effect: 20 All Stat, 50 Attack, 1000 HP, 10% HP, 30% Boss Damage.
Root Abyss Hat: 210 All Stat, 2 Attack , 615 HP, 10% ignore def
Root Abyss Top: 160 All Stat, 2 Attack, 255 HP, 5% ignore def
Root Abyss Bottom: 160 All Stat, 2 Attack, 255 HP, 5% ignore def
Root Abyss Two-Handed Weapon: 110 All Stat, 374 Attack, 255 HP, 10% ignore def, 30% boss
Tyrant Boots: 205 All Stat, 180 Attack
Tyrant Gloves: 167 All Stat, 165 Attack, 300 HP
Tyrant Cloak: 205 All Stat, 180 Attack
Meister Shoulder (most commonly used one in my opinion): 83 All Stat, 9 Attack, 255 HP
Total Stats of Root Abyss + Tyrants: 1320 All Stat, 964 Attack, 2935 HP, 10% HP, 30% ignore def (actually 26.8975% if only sources of %ignore def), 60% boss damage
Arcane Shade Set Effect: 50 All Stat, 195 Attack, 2000 HP, 30% HP, 20% ignore def (10% + 10%), 30% boss Damage
Arcane Shade Hat: 235 All Stat,7 Attack, 255 HP, 15% ignore def
Arcane Shade Overall: 265 All Stat, 9 Attack, 255 HP, 10% ignore def
Arcane Shade Boots: 170 All Stat, 9 Attack
Arcane Shade Gloves: 170 All Stat, 15 Attack
Arcane Shade Cape: 165 All Stat, 6 Attack, 255 HP
Arcane Shade Shoulder: 105 All Stat, 20 Attack, 255 HP
Arcane Shade Two-Handed Weapon: 170 All Stat, 540 Attack, 255 HP, 20% ignore def, 30% boss damage
Total Stats of Arcane Shade Set: 1330 All Stat, 801 Attack, 3275 HP, 30% HP, 65% ignore def (50.428% if only sources of %ignore def),60% boss damage
Conclusion: +10 All Stat, –163 Attack, +340 HP, +20% HP, +35% ignore def (+23.5305% ignore def if only sources of %ignore def) for using the full Arcane Shade Set instead of cRA + Tyrants . . . . yeah . . .not happening.
Tis a sad, sad day folks. We need over 15 Stars OR allowance of nebulites + the additional options system at the same time OR giving the Arcane Shade Set the ability to transpose like Sweetwater Set does or else this will be the second and likely last equipment set released that loses out to a set released years before it simply because NexonNA decided we don’t need over 15 stars since we never had Miraculous Equip Enhancement Scrolls released and they’re afraid to give too much power compared to MapleSEA and EMS who both released over 15 stars and additional Options (though nebulites are supposed to replace them, inferior in some respects but greater overall due to choice, amount of items, and stats / skills not available to additional options system).
You know that the 35%+ ignore defense alone is enough to do more damage than whatever that can supply 160ATT/MATT from the Tyrants (specially with mages), right? We’re talking about 250 defense mobs and 300 defense bosses, and 35%+ ignore defense can easily increase your output 12%+ at this point (whereas 160ATT/MATT shouldn’t increase your range more than some 8%, to afterwards being reduced by the titanic defenses).
Also there is the fact that you don’t even need to wear the whole set to get benefits from it (and frankly speaking getting the whole sets might take your life as well). The Weapon, Hat and Shoulder are BIS by a massive range, whereas the gloves are far easier to get more powerful considering the price/availability of Tyrants Gloves and thus how hard is to get them to 15 Stars. The Overall is half as cheaper to scroll/cube as well for a minimal lose compared to perfected scrolled/cubbed CRA Top/Bottom.
Also in our Reboot the Arcane Set is just plain superior all whatsoever for the practical impossibility of getting Tyrants over 12 stars aside the Cape (and finishing the Arcane Set is stronger than preserving the Cape). We don’t have scrolling and perfectly cubbing CRA Top/Bottom is far more complicated, thus making even the Arcane Overall superior for most instances (specially if it will complete a 4-5 or 7 set bonus).
We also don’t know if GMS will add another potential tier as well.
After thinking about it some more, you could swap out the cape for a tyrant and use 6 set as a normal class to come out maybe equal to or maybe better and swap out the hat for a transposed 24 30% hp scrolled aquarius crown to Sweetwater hat and have a definite gain over cRA + tyrants without ever blowing your money on enhancing tyrants to 15 stars.
after even more thought, you non DA classes could do 5 set arcane shade using tyrant boots and cape for a 122 attack gain and 85 all stat gain (assuming all primes) for normal classes and finally ditch the tyrant glove and top + bottom while making a gain, but full 7 set is a loss without over 15 star or something to make up.
Over 15 stars adds tyrant like stats to non superior items which allows those gloves, shoes and boots from the arcane shade set to match and beat their tyrant equivalents almost when directly compared, but for sure win when entire set is used. Considering stars give stats based on item level in KMS, i should likely even cover the loss of an extra item to potential.
Please take into consideration that the new set is available for enhancement up to 25 stars.
We simply don’t have enough information to decide if CRA+tyrants will continue to be better. There is only speculation.
We need more information on what happens to the potential tiers of a lvl 200 equip. Will there be a tier 5 potential? Eg. A legendary lvl 150 eq can achieve 13% each line for 3 lines. Does a legendary lvl 200 eq achieve more than that? such as potentially 16-18% per line.
Again, same thing, what happens when an equipment achieves 20 stars, and beyond that, how much WA/MA does it add? What about the amount of stats? You see we don’t have that information.
Apart from that, how accessible is this set going to be; will it be available drops from mobs that are lvl 200 above? Much Like Pensalir or is it going to be like Absolabs which u have to accumulate from boss drops. From the way it seems, evidently, it’s going to incline towards a boss-like eq drop like Absolabs.
Now, take a step back and think, how many % of the population (of maplers) are actually able to kill Lotus every week? Extrapolate this to Damien and this new boss, how many people can actually make this happen. Think about this.
We haven’t seen the end of extra equipments yet.
Besides, if Black Mage is coming, do you not think that there might be a lvl 200 superior item set that is incoming? possibly enhancing up to 20 stars?
CRA gets 25 stars in KMS, these people are most likely doing calculations for GMS
So basically we get a new shoulder out of this set and nothing else?
The Shoulder, Weapon and Hat are always BIS everywhere (Best In Slot). In KMS Reboot it is not just BIS but overwhelming broken, in KMS’ Normal Servers and GMS’ Reboot it is also BIS by a fairly big margin.
In GMS Normal Servers it is a big whole of depends, though. For most players the set would mean a fairly big upgrade, but for the most funded of players it depends. A CRA Top/Bottom with 6 perfect lines and perfectly scrolled is sightly superior to the Arcane Overall, whereas any Tyrant 14+ Stars and transposed into Sweetwater is superior by an extremely slim margin to their Arcane counterparts, but anything inferior to those specifications is significantly inferior to a equivalent Arcane equipment, and this is specially fairly common with the Tyrant Gloves. The Arcane Overall also has the small benefit that it is cheaper to cube than CRA Top/Bottom, so it might be cheaper at the FM to get a Legendary Arcane Overall rather both Legendary CRA Top/Bottom given enough time.
Hi Max,
I had two questions:
1) How many stars can each equip obtain in the lvl 200 set?
2) is the first weapon shown the Polearm of the set? Thanks 🙂
I guess I could also ask if the potential that can be obtained on lvl 200 set is tier 4 or if it’s a new tier (Tier 5) but that may be to technical and you may not know haha. Thanks anyways! Take care
1) 25 stars.
2) Nope, it’s the one-handed axe. You can look at the file names to clarify, for the most part they’re just named the type of weapon they are.
3) KMS doesn’t even have tier 4 potential
Would you say that the Lv 200 Arcane Shade equips are better then the Root Abyss equips?
I’m not big on the math but based on what others have said, it might be worth it to use some parts like the hat and shoulder but the lack of top + bot means you lose out on a lot of potential stats. And I think if you use the whole set, you lose some of the Tyrant equipment as well.
Well in gms you double the pot stat for overs due to using 2 slots. You could also factor in the much needed upgrade slots in to the equation to make up for the 3 Tys lost.
I don’t think thats how overall potential works
I believe it is in GMS, though i would have to find the source.
Buddy, you thinking of starforce.
Is level 200 a new potential tier?
KMS does not even have Tier 4 for potentials, so the potentials are capped at LV100 there. Now if at GMS we’re going to get another tier or not is an open question, hopefully yes.
So, Fantasma Coins…do these puppies work like Absolab where you need to collect stones (like the drip stones) and trade them in? Or do they drop directly from Lucid?
Its pretty much the same as Suu/Damien, you need 10 Arcane River Drip Stones (tradeable) from daily quests and 1 Butterfly Wings Drip Stones (untradeable) from Lucid to make 1 Fantasma Coin. I’ll add this information + costs of each item to the post 🙂
Ick. Don’t like where they keep going with these. We can’t get the new sets without beating the bosses that basically require the sets. I wish they would do something different.
But, whatever. At least they look pretty, I guess?
“New NPC Added: Black Mask”
Nexon pls stop borrowing npc names from your other games
Can someone who is actually big on the math and interested in doing the calculations leave a comment here?
Mathematician would like to collaborate and do some speculations.
Thanks^^
calculate what? if its worth changing to this set? weapon and shoulder only, 3seteffect from cra + tyrants atleast 8star each still better
Well at this point it’s hard to say, this set has 25 stars, while Cra/tyrants have 15 ea; plus you have more upgrade slots. At this point we would have to compare a perfect Arcane set and a perfect Cra/tyrant (not including the belt, due to Arcane not having one). Also while Cra/Tyrant has 163 more attack, Arcane has more 35% Def Ignore. At this point it’s more preference then actually choosing what is better, and it will take a while to make a perfect Arcane set if people are willing to get rid of working to a perfect Cra/tyrant set
Well, technically, CRA has 25, tyrant has 15.
Ah, well I did not know that was a thing in KMS ^^; Also, forgot to factor the upgrade slots…
CRA can get up to 25 stars in KMS as well 🙂
Wearing the entire set is a loss for anyone class in GMS if you have 15 tyrants, but mixing and matching can come out as a win. Scarlet shoulder + chaos vellum helm and 200 set weapon + cRA top + bottom + tyrant boot + tyrant cape + tyrant glove (could transpose tyrants, css back the 5 slots and do more scrolls + get 3 set SW for 55 more attack and some all stat) is one option. Or replace tyrant glove with arcane shade glove, and go 5 set arcane shade using tyrant boot and cape, or as demon avenger use 6 set but replace hat with aquarius crown transposed to SW, or just use a tyrant cape and keep the arcane shade hat if you don’t like being 149 attack short of using cRA + 3 / 4 tyrants. Mixing is good . .full set bad . . for GMS unless we get over 15 star limit or something like that to give tyrant like stats to non superior equipment.
Another update and Wind Archers still don’t have moving hurricane. Thanks Nexon.
ugly new area designs ugly new weapons desigin
i forget ugly skills icons
whe ndid art in ms became so shit
do you need the Arcane Shade lucky item scroll to upgrade to Lapis/Luzuli 9?
or will there be an “Arcane Shade Essence” like there was and Absolab Essence?
nevermind I didnt see the last part of the post.
Yep you need the Arcane Shade Essence to upgrade to Lapis/Lazuli 9. The Lucky Item Scroll is used to add it to the Arcane Shade set 🙂
“Certain V Matrix 1st~2nd job skill enhancing cores’ final damage boosts have been increased.”
How much of an increase and to what skills?
There’s like a ton of them and for the most part, it’s not really useful but if you want, I can add them in later.
Well, I was just mainly wondering if there was a common increase to the skills that would make them useful.
(I’d like to see the specific skills that were increased tho…if you can add them over time that would be nice, no rush and thanks again :D)
I wonder if the set pieces are tradeable…
until equipped
All the equips are tradeable until equipped, and after that you can PSOK them.
I play zero, so can u add the zero weap type 9?
http://uni-wz.com/blog-entry-2861.html
ctrl+f search ” ゼロ “
Thanks…. Now time to get to lvl 220 before 5th job hits MapleSEA
Will be added in the offical patch post coming later today! 🙂
Just wondering, is KMS having 25 stars enhancement for all eq or only a few?
all lvl 150+ equips in KMS have 25 stars
I mean ” all lvl 150, Non-superior type” equipment
Quoting on Max Post..
“I gues currently there is no way to get the Hat/Overalls/Shoulderpad?”
Hmm, i guess there is!
Seems like they are going to do like Lotus / Damien style all over again (Which sucks), where Lotus Absolab Store sells Weapon Cape Glove Shoes, and Damien Stigma Coin Store sells Weapon Hat Overall Shoulders =w= .
Hence, there’s a much tougher boss coming out after Lucid I guess =w=
So… is there still an event drought going on? Like, new content is great and all (if you have the range for it) but I’d really love to hear about the limited time events and medal you can get :p
max doesn’t typically talk about events in KMST notes as they not only change from tespia to live, they’re usually heavily modified for the purposes of testing.time events where you hold something for x amount of time is usually changed to 1 minute, and other stuff like that is also changed.
I get that, but I’m interested in the themes of the events, rewards and… sweet, juicy medals…
I don’t care much about what it’ll take to compleye it (plus it may change anyway from KMS to GMS anyway)
KMST doesn’t include events, but only changes to the game. If you want to know more about the events for this, you might want to wait for a week or two when they release this content into the real server, aka KMS.
Surely the new event will come out ，it’s like Nihal desert trade game，but this time it’s cooking in Chewchew Island. （I can’t read Korean,this is my asumption）
How are free to play users supposed to fight against these end game bosses?
well, meso market is a good start, crafting cubes and flames is good, mileage cubes work just dandy, fairy bros rewards, killing bosses, completing sudden missions, doing poloprito portals all have a chance to drop higher tier craftable cubes. Oh and elite bosses too.
Really, it’s easy. You just have to play the game instead of whining how you can’t beat anything because you don’t play the game.
This set if primed and starforced can really challenge CRA because of the huge difference in att on the weapons and the huge set boost. However the CRA set edges it out because it allows the use of dojo and tyrant gloves. This set is still a viable option for people who don’t want to spend too much money enhancing tyrants however it needs to be primed or at least use 15% spell trace.
You won’t be able to get this set in the first place without having heavily enhanced Tyrants (12+ stars). A partial set is still better for even the most funded players with 15 star Tyrants, which means they are going to want to get those pieces first before ever putting 1 of them on the market. If Lucid is once a week and only drops 1 coin, that means 5 months for the weapon, 3 months for the hat, and 3 months for the shoulder. So it will nearly be 1 year before any clean pieces will hit the market.
And what makes you think clean pieces on the market won’t cost an arm and a leg to get?
The earliest CRA pieces on the market were sold for cold USD, and that was when bosses used to drop the pieces directly instead of having to farm the boss for 24 weeks to buy a weapon from the coin shop.
What is the new hit box for the Mihile’s Deadly Charge and Thunder Breaker’s Gale/Typhoon?
Also Lucid takes losing with a smile on her face. “Well played.”
Hit boxes are the same, just the animations have been resized to match them.
This video shows Typhoon’s vertical hit box has been increased by a lot since it can hit things on the high platforms.
This shows what the vertical hitbox was before which was very tiny.
Hello Max, my name is Franz, is there a way to contact you? Like chating or something? I have problems with KMS and wanna ask you about please.
heya max, you wrote: ”An error where Arcane Symbols would not update their main stat when Adventurer Pirates switched to another job with a different main stat has been fixed.” but do you alraidy know if you keep all your V cores and progress when you change job as an explorer?
Yes I believe you do keep your V Cores!
omg amazing, now i can keep switching between shadower and dual blade, got both their weapons and it keeps my main fun >3<
and thnx alot c:
What’s exactly the meaning of “skill effect has been adjusted to match the attack range”?
Does the skill have a new animation?
It just means before, the effect was either smaller or bigger than the actual attack range so they just adjusted it to match.
they did it for shadowers hyper aswel a time ago, the animation stayed the same, just the hitbox got a little bigger
oh forget what i said, its differend how they did it here i see 😮
Ah, then Mikhail and Flame Wizard hyper’s hitbox got reduced? : (
Oh just saw the Typhoon example up there!
Thank you very much.
Umm . .. I can’t find a pic, so can some demon avenger from KMS tell me how much hp is added by an arcane symbol level 1 and and how much per level up?
I think it starts with 4000 HP and increases by 1450 HP per level up.
After playing “I Spy” on insoya’s demon avenger forum i managed to find the correct values, which you got wrong, by calculating off 2 differnt pics. I saw a lvl 3 arcane symbol with 7000 hp and a lvl 7 + lvl 1 giving 16800 hp. Calculating based off these two values I managed to spot in the background of pictures of some equips that had lvl 5 – 7 additional options for hp or attack on weapons, I got 4200 as lvl one and 1400 added per level as correct info, but thaks for trying .. But seriously . .can you get me a picture of a 25 star weapon please?
though . . the amounts make me question whether or not this is item Hp, as its values are based around pure hp +100 rather than item hp +100 . .. .
What is the tier potential for arcane shade gear
Same tier as all lvl 70+ equips
