Xenon


Xenon Character Creation
The new Resistance job, Xenon, has been added! Xenon is super unique as it is the first hybrid job, being both a thief and a pirate! It is the same as the Automata class we knew about earlier, and has basically the same skills. Read on for more information!
New Demon Avenger Card
Demon Avenger’s character card effect has been changed to 1%/2%/3%/4% boss damage.
There were also some skill changes.
  • Abyssal Rage: HP consumed has been increased from 200 to 400
  • Demon Booster: HP consumed has been increased from 0 to 200, max level has been decreased from 20 to 10
  • Exceed: Demon Strike: HP consumed after 5 hits has been decreased from 5% to 3%
  • Inner Strength: HP boost has been removed, now gives 250 defense and magic defense
  • Desperado Mastery: accuracy boost has been increased from 120 to 200
  • Inhale Vitality: cooldown has been decreased from 15 to 12 seconds
  • Shield Charge: damage has been decreased from 300% to 200%
  • Exceed: Moonlight Slash: HP consumed after 5 hits has been decreased from 6% to 5%
  • Exceed: Execution: ignore monsters’ defense effect has been removed, HP consumed after 5 hits has been decreased from 7% to 6%
Ravenhorn Sharktooth Queens Falling Octocore Controller Hybrid Heart
Xenon uses the Energy Sword as his main weapon and the Controller as his secondary weapon. He also uses a Hybrid Heart as a power source (this is similar to the Emblem of the Nova classes). He is a hybrid of the thief and pirate classes, and can therefore wear either equipment.
Xenon Character Creation (M)
Xenon Character Creation (F)
When creating Xenon, you can choose between the Xenon type or the Su type (for males) and Orca type (for females). I’m not too sure why you can do this (maybe Xenon was designed after one of these characters?).
Xenon Job Advancement
Its job advancement animation looks really cool, haha. It’s like a satellite that appears above him and starts this technological wing stuff.
Secret Research Facility Veritas
The Secret Research Facility Veritas has been added. Xenon can use his beginner skillPromessa Assault to teleport there. You can then use the Promessa to teleport instantly to any town in the Maple World.
Beryl
In terms of storyline, Xenon was created by the evil scientist Gelimer to become the perfect weapon. However, Xenon escaped and joined the Resistance, in order to retrieve the memories that were taken from him.
This girl, Beryl, appears a lot as a boss. This is the same one from the diary entry a couple of weeks ago! She is sent by Gelimer to retrieve Xenon, and calls him a traitor.
Xenon is very unique with his skill systems. First off, he uses not one, not two, but three different stats! Xenon gains bonuses from having STR, DEX, and LUK, so having equipment that gives all stats would probably be most useful.
Surplus Supply
He also uses the Surplus Supply system. He collects Surplus Energy over time which can then be used to activate certain abilities.
Finally, the Multi Mode Linker allows Xenon to change his skill types to fit different situations! This applies to a few skills, each of which have 3 different modes.
