KMS ver. 1.2.393 – MapleStory Milestone: Limbo!

The second and last patch of the MapleStory Milestone update has been released, featuring the new boss, Limbo, as well as the rest of the Ethernal set, Hexa Stat Core II, and a few other additions.
The next update (test server patch should be around August 7) will be for the new Epic Dungeon: Angler Company, and the Talaheart story event. I think this might be similar to Glory where they let everyone experience Cernium through an event before adding it as a permanent area for higher levels.

The new test server patch has been released featuring the new boss, Limbo! Normal Mode has already been cleared by a few parties and I believe there’s a party that was close to beating Hard Mode. It also has various other additions such as Hexa Stat II, the buff display settings feature, and the boss cutscene skip feature. Director Changseop had a Maple Now stream as well.
A few things to note that are not all related to this patch:
- Kobe and Steve have been unbanned (yay) so business will resume as usual!
- They released the beta MacOS client on the test server a couple of weeks ago. No timeline on when it will be released to the official server yet though.
- Nexon has applied for a new trademark titled ‘MapleStory Memories 2005’. It could mean nothing but also maybe an official pre-Big Bang client? The user-created MapleLand (in MapleStory Worlds) has been very popular so maybe they want to make their own version.
- In this patch, certain parts of the game data have been encrypted, meaning they can no longer be datamined. If they continue with this and encrypt the rest of it, I probably will not be able to extract items/skills/effects anymore so all screenshots will have to be taken manually in-game, which will be both more work and a lot less comprehensive. For example, I won’t be able to extract any gifs for anything from Limbo (which is sad because the visuals are amazing).
