KMS ver. 1.2.117 ~ Return of the Hero

Yesterday the first patch of the Chaos update went live. This update ‘Return of the Hero’ gives Dual Blade and the Hero jobs balanced skills, along with the other jobs. I’m sorry, Mr. Mechanic. :<

Everyone was entitled to one SP reset scroll in this patch. I used one and replaced Lv. 1 Snatch with Energy Orb.

Nexon Korea likes to throw in some new worlds with big updates. This has been proven with the launch of Aran, Evan, Dual Blade, Resistance and Big Bang…

A new world! The Chaos world – There’s always an event going on with the release of a new world.

The best event is when you reach level 70. At level 70, you can obtain the Chaos Bandana and when you reach level 100, you can obtain the Frontier Earrings.

The Chaos Bandana is +18 AllStat with +25 accuracy and avoidability and +10 hands.

Four new events are available in this patch. One is the New World event, there is the Christmas event where you can collect Christmas socks give them to a Christmas tree to decorate and enter Happyville and a lot more. The third event is the Quiz Star K event.

The name is funny because it’s taken from Superstar K (talent show), but for Quiz Star K you aren’t showing off your vocals, it’s your knowledge that the judges of Quiz Star K are looking for.

For a period of time from 2 PM till 5 PM you can visit the judges to challenge yourself with a quiz.

If you answered a lot of questions, you’ll receive a race car mount and a medal as a reward.

The last event is the Warriors of Chaos event. This main event consists of 3 other events.

”Boom UP” is the first event which gives you cash clothing and items when you reach a certain level.

Since Dual Blade is back to available again for the Winter only, I decided to create a character. Because of the Boom UP event, everyone who creates a new character will get a little surprise.

You will obtain a newbie set.

Hot or Not?

When you reach Lv. 30, you will obtain these items ↓

And when you reach Lv. 50, you will obtain these items ↓

The cash items are permanent. No need to worry about that. However, Dual Blade characters will be getting something extra…

Event mastery books!! You get Slash Storm 20, Tornado Spin 20, Mirror Imaging 30 and Flying Assaulter 20.

How awesome is that? I feel bad for those who spent some money on those mastery books in Cash Shop.

Though, this is only limited and happens on selected days.

There’s a lot more to come!

Gaga wanted to speak to me about a new quest. A quest in collecting an Adventurer Ring.

Gaga says I need to raise my level from 148 to 188 to obtain a ring. This has to be done before January 31, 2011 or else the quest disappears.

I think that’s not enough for me to raise my level so quickly to 188.

But for everyone who creates a new character, this will be another benefit!

Adventurers: Adventurer Rings

Knights of Cygnus
: Holy Wing Earring

Resistance: Resistance Lux Ring

Aran: Lilin’s Aura Ring

Evan: Onyx Dragon Glasses

Dual Blade: Blood Mask

They all add +3 to STR/DEX/INT/LUK and +3 weapon and magic attack. The quest starts at Lv. 40, newly created characters will have to raise their level to 80. For people who are past Lv. 41, they will need to raise their level forty times.

These job items cannot be worn over any other existing job items (Dragon Glasses, Lilin’s Ring etc.) and you can only trade the job item to another character once on your account.

In the patch note of this version it says that boss monsters now drop a secret mastery book. With a secret mastery book, it’s a surprise which mastery book you get. I don’t know if the boss monsters drop secret mastery books instead of the original books they’re supposed to drop.

Tomorrow there will be a Hot Time event in MapleStory at 2 PM but I can’t play! I want that ‘I’m a Lucky Guy’ medal so bad.. And on the 25th there will be 3 hours of x2 EXP!

I want to raise my Viper’s level to 150!

I apologize for not explaining the new profession skill system. I will explain it when it will be released in the official server. That way it’s accurate and up-to-date.
