KMST ver. 1.2.146 – Boss Automatic Matching System
A new test world update was released, and the main thing in this patch is a reorganization of the Boss UI as well as the addition of the Boss Automatic Matching system.
KMS ver. 1.2.368 – MapleStory Ignition: Odium & Maple Vision Talk!
The third and final patch of the MapleStory Ignition update, Odium, has been released. It includes job balancing, the new level 275 area Awakened Laboratory: Odium, as well as various convenience improvements. It also has this year’s Chuseok event, where the summer event’s Ignition Fireworks Festival turns into the Ignition Full Moon Party and the collaboration event with BTS Jin!
In addition, before the patch, they released the 2022 Maple Vision Talk, where Wong-ki talked about MapleStory’s general direction going forward.
Edit: There was a minor patch the next day with a few additional skill changes and bug fixes. I’ll include the skill changes in the main section marked in red but I’ll put the rest in its own section at the bottom.
KMST ver. 1.2.145 – Skill Balancing & Odium
Big patch, long patch notes. I was also like 75% done with the skill changes last night and then my Google Chrome tab crashed and WordPress’ autosave feature didn’t work so I lost all my work and went to sleep mad. There’s still some stuff like the list of monsters added to Monster Collection [Edit: now added thanks to Anonymous in the comments!] and the error fixes but no one cares about that.
On the bright side, Odium is very cool and the BGMs are bangers 🙂
KMS ver. 1.2.366 – MapleStory Ignition: Cygnus Knights Remaster!
The first patch of the MapleStory Ignition update has been released! The Cygnus Remaster gives all of the Cygnus Knights, including Mikhail, an updated look and various improvements. This patch also contains various quality of life changes, Hyper Burning up to level 250, and the Ignition Fireworks Festival event!
In terms of the remaster, there were basically zero changes from the last test world patch until now (really disappointing tbh). I decided to just do a full skill translation so it won’t show the differences from before and after the remaster, but you can check the two KMST posts for those. There was one additional developer notes section for Wind Breaker which I’ll include here.
KMST ver. 1.2.143 – Cygnus Remaster Skill Changes
A new test world patch was released as scheduled, with some more changes to the Cygnus remaster skills, as well as the updated story. The patch also includes more QoL improvements and the events we will be getting (which will be covered next week).
Shortly afterwards, the director Won-ki did a live video on YouTube addressing some of the main complaints people had with this patch, such as the new Hyper Burning event’s rewards being lackluster and the new Cygnus voices being too meme-y and bad.
