Maple Memories: My MapleStory Journey
Hey guys, this post will be a little different from my usual stuff. Since it’s KMS’ 18th anniversary, GMS’ 16th anniversary, and also (almost) the 10th anniversary of this blog, I thought it would be nice to take a trip down memory lane! I’ve been playing MapleStory for more than half my life and obviously, it’s been a huge part of it haha.
CMSt ver. 071 – Root Abyss & New Bosses!
This post title might seem a bit random, but actually it’s very surprising! China MapleStory’s test server has released the new area and bosses of Root Abyss before kMSt! This area is the one hinted at with all of these boss previews and even one of the last Inkwell’s Secret Diary entries! I don’t know why CMSt got it first, but I’ll try my best to cover it~ It’s really really interesting because it is really important to the storyline of MapleStory~
Please note that many of the translations I am using are from Hadriel of Southperry from this thread, so huge thanks to him for posting them!
Inkwell’s Secret Diary – The Successor of Immortality
The advent of the protector of the dragons, Kaiser! Fate’s immortal successor!
Wow, this guy looks cool! Is he the new race that was mentioned in Inkwell’s video?! His armor looks super awesome. Could the next class be the protector of the dragons, Kaiser? I’m excited!
His sword (along with other types?) was shown in a past Diary entry. I wonder when it’ll come to Tespia~ What do you guys think?
kMS ver. 1.2.164 – The Prelude of the Tempest!
The first patch of the Tempest update has been released! It doesn’t include much… other than job advancement changes. It’s really weird… there’s only one Tempest quest, no coins, no shop, nothing. I have no idea what Nexon Korea is thinking!
However, we now know the dates of the rest of the updates! July 12 (Choice of Light and Darkness), July 26, August 9, and August 23.
kMSt ver. 1.2.436 – Luminous Skill Changes & Tempest Advisory! JMS Exclusive Classes!
This patch was only a couple of skill changes for Luminous (and skill level changes for Dual Blade), and some minor things. However, it does confirm the summer update will be called Tempest! Also, a new mob for Guwaru has been added… does that mean he will finally make his appearance? A new Inkwell’s Secret Diary has been released, this time talking about the Tempest update and when it is coming!
Edit: New information has been released about JMS, confirming their exclusive classes~! Check the end of my post!
