kMS ver 1.2.198 – Kingdom of the Past, Kritias & Bamon League!


The conclusion of the RED update, Kritias, has been released! This patch includes the new area of Kritias, the 1 vs 100 boss Hekaton, and the new content Bamon League! It’s actually not as exciting as the last two patches, but I guess that was expected, haha.
I thought that boss PvP was supposed to be with this patch, but it’s not… so I’m not sure. The above video was released today, titled ’Hekaton Special Video’. Sorta boring if you ask me…
Kritias Location
After his revival, the Black Mage hid himself away in a kingdom called Kritias, which disappeared long ago but has now returned. Near the Minar Forest, you can move to Kritias through the map Sky Nest 1 if you are level 160 or higher.
You can also use Pantheon’s Dimensional Portal, Veritas, or Crystal Garden to move to Kritias.
Kritias Map
The return of Kritias combined with the revival of the Black Mage has caused strong monsters to appear! In addition, at the center of the kingdom, an upside down castle floats in the sky. Just what is happening in Kritias?
In Kritias’ magic school Renheim, you can use the dimensional portal Kerkoporta to move to other towns.
Inverse Magic Stone System
A special feature of Kritias is the appearance of Inverse Magic Stones. Fragments of these stones will drop from monsters and if you are holding an Inverse Magic Stone Combiner, they will automatically be changed into full Stones.
You can buy a combiner from Cuelberne for 5000 mesos.
Lavian
Enheim Coin Kritias Commemoration Coin
You can trade in your Inverse Magic Stones to Lavian in the magic school Renheim to get Kritias Commemoration Coins or Enheim Coins. 700 Stones are required for one Enheim Coin and 1200 Stones for the Kritias Coins.
Kritias Shop
You can spend your coins at the NPC Cuelberne. He sells the following items.
  • Hilla/Magnus/Van Leon/Arkarium Transformation Potion - 7 Enheim Coins
  • Tyrant gloves - 400 Kritias Coins
  • Base Damage Skin - 15 Enheim Coins
  • Digitalize Damage Skin - 250 Enheim Coins
  • Kritias Damage Skin - 250 Enheim Coins
  • Flying Battleship Riding Coupon - 3 Enheim Coins
  • Hecaton’s Fist Riding Coupon 3 Enheim Coins
  • Hekaton’s Rest chair - 3 Enheim Coins
  • Empress/Chaos Vellum Clear Count Reset Coupon (resets your clear count for the boss, can be used once per day) - 12 Enheim Coins
  • Hard Magnus/Chaos Von Bon/Chaos Pierre/Chaos Bloody Queen Clear Count Reset Coupon - 10 Enheim Coins
  • Inverse Magic Stone Combiner (I.M.S) - 5000 mesos
Tyrant Altair Gloves
Yep, you read that right, Tyrant gloves! They are superior items and begin with 15 attack or magic attack, with 2 slots. They’re untradeable and can be traded if you use the Platinum Scissors of Karma.
Base Damage Skin Digitalize Damage Skin Critias Damage Skin
These new items have been added, they’re called Damage Skins. The first is the base, the second is called Digitalize, and the third is called Kritias. Using one will change the appearance of your damage numbers (except the first, unless you already used one of the other ones). However, Zero cannot use them.
Digitalize 0 Digitalize 1 Digitalize 2 Digitalize 3 Digitalize 4 Digitalize 5 Digitalize 6 Digitalize 7 Digitalize 8 Digitalize 9 Digitalize Guard Digitalize Miss Digitalize Resist
Critias 0 Critias 1 Critias 2 Critias 3 Critias 4 Critias 5 Critias 6 Critias 7 Critias 8 Critias 9 Critias Guard Critias Miss Critias Resist
And here’s what they look like. The first is the Digitalize skin and the second is the Kritias skin.
Hekaton's Rest Chair
This is what the new chair, Hekaton’s Rest looks like, but it pales in comparison to the size of the real Hekaton, haha.
Inverse Jewel Earrings Inverse Metal Shoulder
Kritias also has special equipment, although I have no idea where to get it at the moment… The first two items are the Inverse Jewel Earrings (6 all stats, 600 HP and MP, 4 attack and magic attack, 6 slots, untradeable) and Inverse Metal Shoulderpad (10 all stats, 10 attack and magic attack, 1 slot, untradeable).
Inverse Codex
The third is the Inverse Codex, a pocket item that starts off with 2 to all stats, 2 attack and magic attack. You can then infuse Inverse Magic Stones with it to increase its stats! I’m not sure how many stones it takes but I know what stats it will gain.
  • Level 1: 50 defense and magic defense
  • Level 2: 100 defense and magic defense
  • Level 3: 100 HP and MP
  • Level 4: 200 HP and MP
  • Level 5: 1 all stats
  • Level 6: 2 all stats
  • Level 7: 1 attack and magic attack
  • Level 8: 2 attack and magic attack
  • Level 9: 1% defense ignore
  • Level 10: 3% defense ignore
  • Level 11: 2% boss damage
  • Level 12: 3% boss damage
The three Inverse items are level 150 and there is a set effect! For wearing all three of the items above, you’ll gain 20 attack and magic attack and 20% boss damage.
Black Mage Commanders' Invasion
The Black Mage’s commanders have begun to invade Kritias! Periodically, two of them will join together and attack Kritias with their monsters, and you will have to defend against them!
Invasions will take place from 8am to 10pm every day.
Kritias Kingdom - Marketplace
Kritias’ environment will change based on these invasions! Beforehand, it will be calm and the residents will appear.
Kritias Kingdom - Marketplace (Invaded)
However, when they do invade, the town will become dark and destroyed. What are the Black Mage’s commanders aiming for in Kritias?
Battle Message Settings
During an invasion, the invasion situation UI will appear. You can use this UI to see the remaining time, as well as send messages to your friends to fortify defenses and create a game plan.
Lion King Invasion Monsters
The monsters outside will change based on the commanders that are invading. Help Kritias defend itself against its enemies!
Hecaton With Mapler
A 1 vs 100 battle in the upside down castle in Kritias, all worlds will have to assemble to fight the giant boss Hekaton! Hekaton is a boss bigger than you’ve ever seen before!
Hekaton Alerts
Anyone level 30 or higher from any world will be able to fight Hekaton by accepting the quest which appears 5 minutes before he spawns (at 3PM, 7PM, and 9PM daily).
You will have 30 minutes to defeat him! The battle will be seamless and act as if you were in an expedition with those around you, and everyone’s max HP will be adjusted by a certain amount after entry.
Hekaton Minimap
Hekaton is split into 6 parts, chest, fists, arms, shoulders, stomach, and head). To defeat each part, you’ll have to attack the cores that are located on them.
The chest’s core has shields that will protect it from damage, and to break through it you must defeat all other parts of Hekaton. Shields will regenerate over time so you’ll have to gather many warriors and attack strategically!
Floating Platforms
All around the map, there will be floating platforms which move from the ground to the sky. Use them to your advantage to target the giant boss who cannot be seen on one screen!
Mounted Weapons
For lower levels who cannot do as much damage, there exists mounted weapons all across the map. These will also show up on the minimap as flags.
To use them, you can go near them and press the ‘sit’ button.
  • Flying Battleship: you will be able to fly around the map and attack Hekaton, dealing 500k damage continuously
  • Harpoon: you will be able to aim and seal one of Hekaton’s body parts for a certain period of time
  • Cannon: you will be able to fire a cannon and one of Hekaton’s body parts, dealing 1m damage
Hekaton Ranking
While inside the battle, you’ll see a ranking which lists character names and the world they’re from. This ranking is based on your contribution to the fight and at the end, you’ll receive prizes based on your rank.
Rank 1~7 will receive Inverse Magic Stones after the fight is over.
Hekaton Battle Preview
During the battle, you’ll have to make your way around the map and fight the different body parts which have different attacking patterns! The shiny blasts from Hekaton’s core will heal him if they hit you!
If you die inside, you will not lose experience and will be revived on the walls around Hekaton. You will also be unable to switch equipment, keyboard shortcuts, or use items, pets, and Androids. This means you’ll have to fight without auto pot, auto buff, and your Android heart stats!
Bamon Capture Skill
Now in Maple World, you can capture and raise monsters to battle against others, Bamon League has been added! Anyone level 13 and above can participate after they receive the Bamon Capture skill.
Monster Capture
You can travel Maple World and capture monsters with your Bamon Capture skill, which will level up as you attack them. Once you have gotten it to at least level 1, you can use it on a monster and a mark will appear on their head. Defeat that monster and it will attempt to catch them!
The chance to catch a monster will depend on its level and your skill’s level. All captured monsters will be shared throughout your account.
Bamon Book
You can see all of your captured monsters in the Bamon Book. Monsters that do not appear here will not be able to be captured.
Bamon League gives 1% to all stats for each tier conditions you complete. The conditions are to get to the next rank (mentioned below) and capture a certain number of monsters in that tier. For example, T1 requires you to be a Beginner and capture 20 T1 monsters.
Battle Monsters
In your Bamon Book, you can set the three monsters that you will use in the League, as well as their attacking and defending skills and the equipment they will be using.
You will gain access to more skills as you complete Bamon quests.
Battle Monster Equipment
Battle Monster equipment will drop from monsters, and will have a red B in the bottom left corner of the icon. They will also state that you can only equip them on Battle Monsters.
Bamon League
After you have at least 3 monsters and have chosen your skills and equipment, you can press the Battle! button to be automatically matched up with someone in your world near your ladder ranking.
You’ll have 10 seconds to choose your order of monsters in order to fight strategically, and then the battle will commence!
Bamon League Results
