KMST ver. 1.2.178 – Tallahart & the Long Awaited Balance Patch!
Last Wednesday, the test server was updated with the new level 290 area Tallaheart and much more importantly, the first real balance patch since before New Age, which was way back in June 2023, so it’s been almost 1.5 years! (if you don’t include 6th job and the new Mastery Cores) Changseop also did a Maple Now stream talking about their plans for balance going forward.
I saw that some people were wondering why my post was later than it usually is, and it’s actually because my apartment got flooded the day after the patch 😭 Woke up excited about the Wind Breaker buffs and then a city pipe burst… Thankfully not too much was ruined but I still can’t go home until they fix it, so I’ve just been working on this in pieces in my free time on my laptop. Anyways, life goes on, they add more QoL, a new high level area people will complain is too high level, Bishop support gets nerfed… wait what?!

The second patch of the winter update, Dreamer, has been released! It contains the second set of 6th job Mastery Cores, improvements to Grandis’ instanced Authentic Force maps, Heroes of Maple’s reorganization, and outfit presets. The New Name Auction event has also returned!
The test server patch that features the meso and Cube changes that everyone is waiting for will be released at some point in the future (seriously, there’s no announced date other than some time after this live server patch).

A test world patch containing changes to the 2nd Mastery Core skills as well as other overall skill changes, the return of Elite Monsters and Bosses in Grandis, a full update to Heroes of Maple’s story, and the new Outfit Preset system!
This patch does NOT contain the previously mentioned changes to Cubes and mesos. That should be in a separate patch that will happen after next week’s live server patch on January 18 (where the 2nd Mastery Cores will be released).

As mentioned previously, the new 6th job Mastery Cores have been released in the test server! You should remember that these are still in testing and both the visuals and numerical values can be changed in the future. They will be released in the official server on January 18 so there’s about 3 weeks left for them to have additional patches. There’s probably going to be at least one more that includes new events.

The second and main patch of the MapleStory New Age update, 6th job, has been released! Together with the new job advancement’s Hexa Skills and Stats come a new high-level area Arteria, and other game improvements. Also there was a minor patch today that made a really huge (temporary) change to grinding in Grandis!
In other news, I saw the post on Reddit about me and I just wanted to say that I’m so grateful to everyone for the support, I really do appreciate it!! It was very nice to read all the kind messages 🙂 But also, guys, I can afford a new keyboard, you don’t need to donate to me for that LOL. I just mentioned it in the last post because I knew there were gonna be a lot of mistakes/typos.
However, there were a lot of new Patreon subscribers which is amazing so I used the money to upgrade the site’s WordPress subscription to have more storage, which is why this post includes the 30MB movies for every class. (Note: I used APNG format since it looks a LOT better than GIFs, but they only work in browser when you click on them and open them in a new tab) We’ll see how long this lasts before I have to go back to Imgur…
