Adventurer Remaster

Developer Notes:

In this test world Adventurer remaster update, we made structural improvements by reviewing the valuable opinions sent to us by players, and did a 1st set of numerical adjustments. In terms of design, some things have been changed, but there are still other things that are being changed or are planned to be changed.

Even after this update, we will continue to make changes/supplement until it is added to the official server so that we can satisfy as many Adventurer players as possible. If you share your opinions in a variety of ways, we will review them and improve the remaster’s completeness. Thank you.

Developer Notes:

In the January 18 test server, we have changed Bloody Pocket/Bloody Explosion and made additional improvements related to Assassinate’s delay/cancelling. Also, Assassinate’s damage and final damage boost have been changed to apply to other skills, including 5th job skills.

First of all, the Bloody Explosion skill has been removed. While Bloody Pocket is active, you can use Enhanced Meso Explosion. In the previous Bloody Explosion, you would only receive the Murderous Intent buff when it hit an enemy, and we confirmed that this was an additional burden when compared to Meso Explosion before the remaster. As a result, we have changed it so that you use Enhanced Meso Explosion during Bloody Pocket instead of Bloody Explosion, and the Enhanced Meso Explosion prioritizes the enemy with the highest maximum as well as gives the Murderous Intent buff as soon as you cast it.

The action delay for Assassinante has been changed to what it was before the January 12 test world update but instead, the finishing blow can now be cancelled with Enhanced Meso Explosion. As a result, the first attack’s delay has been decreased when compared to before the remaster, and the action delay and cancellation timing of the finishing blow will remain the same.

For the numerical changes, the damage and final damage boosts from Assassinate have been improved to apply more universally. Assassinate’s damage boost while in Dark Sight has been removed, and instead, Advanced Dark Sight’s final damage boost has been increased. And Murderous Intent buff’s final damage boost to Assassinate’s finishing blow has been decreased but instead, Shadower Instinct now increases final damage.

• Summon Crew/Assemble Crew: You will no longer be put in combat when the crewmembers attack.

Developer Notes:

In the last test world, the overall usability of the summons were improved. However, there are still areas where their usability are poor so we wanted to improve this as well as improve Captain’s other skills to reduce the dependence on its summons a little.

The problems for crewmembers that caused inconvenience in combat have been fixed. It has been improved so that the character does not become in combat even when a crewmember attacks. In addition, we wanted to prevent the crewmembers’ attacks from activating Special Cores like Fatal Strike or the Demiurge of Destruction at undesired times.

Siege Bomber’s attack speed was lower when compared to its previous specifications, so we have made it faster. In addition, in the last test world, we tried to increase the install duration to 60 seconds based on the max level but the duration formula was applied incorrectly. We apologize for not being able to perform the test smoothly.

For Battleship Bomber, both the ship’s design and the cannon firing locations were changed. The usage experience changed a lot so the firing location has been changed to be the same as before. In addition, the damage has been slightly decreased to reduce the dependence on Battleship Bomber.

Although Captain is a long-range character, there was a problem where you had to move close to install Sign of Bombard intermittently, so we have added an Auto feature that installs it at the location of enemies hit by Continual Aiming. The ability to uninstall it, which many players commented on, has been changed to be able to be done using a command.

Captain’s direct skills other than summons have been improved as well. Rapid Fire and Head Shot’s damage have been improved, and we have added a final damage passive to Captain Dignity to slightly reduce the dependence on summons. Also, there was a problem whre it was difficult to recognize Deadeye’s accurate aiming so the quickslot icon will now change when it is aimed.

Developer Notes:

In this test world update, you can play all of the reorganized Adventurer stories. Until now, most of the story content was only released at the time of the official server update, but we decided that more testing and collecting feedback from players would be the best way to improve the quality of our story content. Therefore, it is all available in the test world now.

This Adventurer story reorganization took placae in the form of maintaining the framework of the existing ‘Adventurer’s Book’ while adding new settings and changing/reinforcing existing settings to spread them out over the tutorial and job advancement quests.

Through this, we expect that there won’t be too many big differences with the Adventurer story that players know and expect, but the main character and the surrounding characters’ traits will be emphasized better and the setting and plausibility of the existing story will be more solid.

Beginning with this Adventurer story reorganization, we ask for your interest in the ongoing story content reorganization.

Job Skill Improvements

Developer Notes:

In this test world, the improvements made for each job’s skills were focused on improving structural problems and adding or modifying various skills with combat utility.

There are certain jobs whose combat performances have been changed due to these changes, but the overall adjustment of jobs’ combat performance through numerical adjustments take place in stages at a later date.

After the Adventurer remaster, discussions related to characters’ combat performance on a variety of communities have been more active than ever, and many players are sending us their opinions.

Through this, we were able to feel how much love players have for each of their characters, and even MapleStory itself, so at the same time, we have deeply reflected on the various improvements needed for characters’ combat experience.

Going forward, even if it’s not on the same level as a remaster, we will review and change things that can quickly improve the combat experience through structural modifications like this update every month.

Of course, we will continue to work on numerical improvements as well. However, numerical changes are very intuitive to a character’s combat performance and can bring rapid changes so we are trying to make more conservative and gradual changes. Although the extent of the changes may be different for each job, we are planning to only make numerical adjustments with a maximum of 10~20% in a single update, and after the changes are applied to the official server, we will check our data and make additional adjutments.

We sincerely apologize for not being able to match the pace of changes expected by players regarding skill improvements until now. From now on, we will do our best to provide better combat experiences through steady and gradual improvements.

Please keep an eye on this update and the skill improvements that will be made every month, and share your opinions with us.

Developer Notes:

The Mastery Book system which was added with the 4th job advancement update in December 2006 has been removed. Since then, the 5th job advancement update and various reorganizations for faster character growth have taken place and the current Mastery Book System was decided to be a cumbersome hurdle of playing the game. Going forward, we have improved it so that you can increase all of your 4th job advancement skills to their maximum levels without having to use Mastery Books.

Boss Entry Limit Improvements

The daily entry limit of 1 has been removed for the following bosses. It has been improved so that a 30 minute re-entry cooldown is applied.

• Zakum (Easy/Normal)
• Papulatus (Easy/Normal)
• Hilla (Normal)
• Horntail (Easy/Normal/Chaos)
• Von Leon (Easy/Normal/Hard)
• Arkarium (Easy/Normal)
• Caoong (Normal)
• Pink Bean (Normal/Chaos)

The daily entry limit has been increased from 1 to 3 for the following bosses. The existing 30 minute re-entry cooldown will be maintained.

• Suu (Hard)
• Demian (Hard)
• Guardian Angel Slime (Normal/Chaos)
• Lucid (Easy/Normal/Hard)
• Will (Easy/Normal/Hard)
• Dusk (Normal/Chaos)
• Dunkel (Normal/Hard)
• Jin Hilla (Normal/Hard)
• Chosen Seren (Normal/Hard)

The daily entry limit has been increased from 1 to 3 for the following bosses. It has been improved so that a 60 minute re-entry cooldown is applied.

• Black Mage

Developer Notes:

We have improved the daily boss entry limits to alleviate the problem where you would lose your daily entry if any unexpected situations caused you to stop playing while in the process of challenging bosses. For the re-entry cooldowns, if there was no limit, then parties could enter then right before clearing, they could leave and enter the same boss again. Therefore, we have kept the limit because it would create a gameplay pattern that is not intended by the development team.

Stance Stat Improvements

Error Fixes

Skills

Certain skills that are not affected by directly used attack speed increasing skills’ effects but are affected by passive skills and Ability attack speed changes have been changed so that their attack speeds cannot be changed.

Developer Notes:

Recently, in the process of making attack speed increasing buffs into passives, we have discovered an issue where certain skills that were not affected by active attack speed increasing buff skills were still affected by certain passive stats.

When attack speed is increased for these skills, an error occurs where the skill effects and character actions are outputted abnormally. In particular, for skills that involve movement, the movement distance would be applied inconsistently or sometimes the skill would not be used properly, which we have received many inquiries about.

Due to this change, the experience of using certain skills may change, but we decided that this continuous error would cause more convenience which is why we have changed it this way.

Night Lord’s Showdown Challenge and Demon Slayer’s Devil Cry’s debuff effects have been changed so that they do not overwrite each other. The overlapping effects have been changed so that the higher effect is applied.

Fixed an issue where Aran’s Boost End – Storm of Fear would not output the hit effect on monsters that cannot be pulled.

Developer Notes:

In Reboot World, monsters have higher health than in regular worlds so that you can feel the changes in your character’s growth better. During our code improvement work in June 2019, we organized duplicated code and incorrectly applied Elite Champion and Elite Bosses’ HP in regular maps, leading to lower HP and experience when compared with regular worlds. In line with the purpose of Reboot World, we have changed it so that Elite Champions and Elite Bosses will have their HP and experience applied normally in regular maps. We will take care so that problems like this do not happen again.
