KMST ver. 1.2.182 – NEXT Improvements & Mastery Core Changes

As announced previously, the second test world patch was released on Thursday, featuring a lot of the game improvements mentioned at the showcase as well as some further skill changes. All of this will be heading to the live server next week!

The first patch of the MapleStory New Age update has been released, including a variety of game improvements, Grandis area level adjustments, and Shangri-La as a full area. There’s also the new Hyper Burning up to level 260, Burning World, and the summer event Identisk Island. The event works pretty differently this time around as there is no coin capping at all! You basically just login, click a button and get 500 coins a day. Almost all of the items you would buy from the coin shop are now given out for free through the two tracks of the attendance check, the quantities have been greatly increased, and there’s no more battle pass.
Next week, 6th job will be released to the test server! Honestly I don’t think I’ll be able to include the skill effects like normal because they’ll probably be 100MB gifs lol. Steve, Kobe, and I have been trying to prepare various characters on the test world to show off but we’ll see how it goes.

On Saturday, a couple of hours after the New Age showcase finished, the test world updated with many of the game changes and system improvements mentioned there. No 6th job yet (that will start testing on June 22)! This patch will be coming to the official servers on Wednesday, along with the summer event which is actually pretty different system-wise but more on that in the next post (might be a couple days later since I just finished this one).
Director Wongki also has been making his rounds, visiting various streamers to talk and answer questions. He started with Geulja (글자네) right after the showcase! He has made some interesting statements and soft-announced various changes, so I’ll probably write up a summary sometime this week.

The first patch of the MapleStory Savior update has been released! It includes various improvements to the overall growth experience, the Star Force system, and many skill changes. The main event for this winter, Fairy Wonky’s Wongstaurant, has also begun!
I tried out some new things in the post including anchor links to/from the overview, which I think will be pretty useful. Also I decided to stop covering Cash Shop updates since the rotations are never the same for every version lol. However, I’ll still add the more important information such as new Master Label/vac pet rotations and things like the BLACKPINK collaboration.

The test server was opened after the showcase a couple of days ago, containing the growth experience improvements, job balancing, Star Force improvements, the new job Khali, and many other changes.
