The previous Tespia patch has come to the real server, but there is one large difference. Battlemage was not changed, their skills are the same as before. I wonder if this is because people were not happy with it? I don’t know about you guys but I think the new animations fit the Resistance a lot better than the dark ones (albeit this is a really late change).
Anyways, Wild Hunter received some changes and new skills while 9 other jobs were balanced. They released a new theme dungeon as well as a party quest, so read on! Adventurer creation has been blocked! What does this mean? Will RED be coming sooner than expected?
Wild Hunters have been reorganized! Along with the following removed and new skills, they have received both increased attacking speed and attack range! To celebrate, fourth job Wild Hunters will receive a free Special Mastery Book for a skill of their choice until June 30.
For the new fourth job skill, Flash Rain’s mastery level and books will be carried over to Assistant Hunting Unit.

In order to make Link Skills more convenient, everyone first job or higher has received the beginner skill Link Management. Using this skill will let you see all your Link Skills to quickly move them through your account.
Nova jobs can now receive Link Skills! They have also added a limit of 12 Link Skills per character (meaning that is the maximum you can have at one time). Cygnus Blessing counts as one skill even if you have more than one Knight of Cygnus.
A new theme dungeon for levels 30 and above, Fairy Academy Elinel has been added! You can access it through Northern Woods: Giant Tree after talking to Pansy.
Here are the monsters for this area, I think they look much better than the ones they made for Colossus the Giant.
You can get some new items from here, including the Fairy Academy Honorary Teacher medal (2 to all stats, 120 HP and MP), Elinel’s Bracelet (1 attack and magic attack, 5 slots), and Elinel’s Wings (10 avoid, 5 speed, 3 slots). There’s also a scroll for the wings that give 1 to all stats at a 100% rate.
A new party quest, The Altar of Masteria has been added! It takes place in the theme dungeon Crimsonwood Citadel and requires 3 ~ 5 people levels 130~200. The more diverse your party is, the more rewards you will receive. It can only be accessed once you have completed the quest “The Road to the Underworld”.
Work your way around the maze while avoiding the pillars in order to activate the Masters’ rooms’ runes.
Afterwards, you’ll be able to fight the five Crimsonwood Masters in order to obtain the legendary weapons! When fighting these bosses, if you are the same job as them your damage will be increased by 30% and they will use one less skill.
What’s interesting is that there is the same room as in GMS, with the map outlining Versal’s attack on Masteria, it even has Naricain! Currently, kMS does not have anything other than Crimsonwood Citadel, which is much different than what is shown. It’s possible this might just be a place holder. We have the bonus room as well, with many chests.
The prize for this party quest is the Masteria Shoulderpad, it is level 130 and gives 5 to all stats, 4 attack and magic attack with 0 slots. It does not expire but it cannot have potential.
There were some changes to party quests as well! Moon Bunny’s Rice Cake now gives you 5 Rice Cakes when cleared and the hat costs 50 Cakes now. Tangyoon’s Cooking Class has been made less strict and an achievement bar has been added.
In Traces of the Goddess, Papa Pixie can now drop the Goddess’ Bracelet and Shoes, and the cost to trade them in for Goddess Minerva items has been changed to 10 and 15 feathers.
Resurrection of the Hob King‘s clear experience has been increased and the cost to change the earrings into Perfect Earrings has been changed to 25 Proofs. Ice Knight’s Curse has also had its clear experience increased.
The quest requirements for Fantastic Theme Park have been decreased (good thing too, one of the quests wanted you to kill 777 of a monster!).
Also, a new reward has been added for the Ellin Forest quest chain. At the end you’ll receive the Ring of Fairy Queen, which gives 3 to all stats and 3 attack and magic attack with 1 slot, but it can’t have potential.
Two new Soul Weapons have been added, for Ephenia and Arkarium. Ephenia gives you Queen’s Fragrant Butterflies, which increases the HP and MP of those in your party by 50% for 180 seconds with a cooldown of 300 seconds.
Snake Sauron inflicts 350% damage every second for 10 seconds on up to 10 enemies with a 240 second cooldown.
There is also a Great Soul for Arkarium, that gives Medusarkarium, which deals 2500% damage on up to 15 enemies and stuns them. There is a cooldown of 300 seconds.
The new Autopilot Riding system has been added! To use it, first you must get an autopilot mount (based on your job you’ll get one for free! 120% speed for 30+, 150% speed for 60+, and 170% speed for 100+).
Then, choose on the world map which map you would like to move to and pay 1500 mesos. This system only works in Victoria Island.
You’ll then see your character move by itself to where you want to go, ignoring any collisions or damage done by monsters!
Maple Firecrackers will be spawning around the Maple World! Defeat them and collect 1000 points in order to choose a prize! You can choose any Maple Black weapon, Hat, Suit, Gum, Ring, or Maple Prime scrolls.
Some 10th Anniversary events have been extended, Secret Boxes, Maple Marvel and Let’s Go! Mesorangers! will now end on June 12 and the 10th Anniversary Coin Shop will be open until June 20.
Soul Collector Murmur has returned for season 3, and will run until May 29. Find him around the Maple World to collect bags that can give you Ephenia and Arkarium Soul Pieces.
The next event is called Maple Survival Minigame and it runs until June 12. It’s actually really fun! Every XX:10, XX:30, and XX:50, you will be invited by Spiegelmann to participate with 3~5 people, seeing who can do the best in four minigames.
The first is Mini Bean Sniping, use your mouse to shoot the Mini Beans of your colour. Be careful not to shoot other peoples as they will benefit from it instead of you!
The second is Avoid the Piranhas! Don’t get hit by the piranhas and be the last one standing! You can use a Teleport by pressing shift, with a 4 second cooldown.
Next is Spiegameman’s Bomb Twirl, it’s like hot potato except with a bomb. You can decrease the bomb’s time to explode by a maximum of 3 seconds before having to send it off to the next person. Whoever is holding the bomb at the end will fail and a new round will start.
Finally, it’s Raining Stones! Avoid all the stones, hitting 3 of them will completely use up your HP gauge and you will fail. You can become invincible for a short period of time once by pressing Shift.
Based on your performance, you will receive prizes! First place will get 3 Mystery Jewel Boxes and 3 Mystery Bags, second place will get 2 of each, 3rd will get 2 Jewel Boxes and 1 Bag, 4th place will get 1 Jewel Box and 2 Bags, and 5th place will get one of each.
The Mystery Jewel Boxes can give you S/A/B/C rank Jewels while the Mystery Bags can give Jewel Craft Chaos Rings, Jewel Synergy Machines, Jewel Craft Rings, and Power Elixirs.
The final event is Higher, Higher, Crown Stacking! It runs until June 12. This event is based around collecting Crowns, basically titles.
Collect 30 Shiny Stars from monsters around your level to trade in for either a Crown or a Crown Piece. There are 5 different colours of Crowns and 10 Crowns of each colour.
You can stack them if they’re different colours, wow that’s gonna get annoying haha.
There are even achievements, which are collecting all 8 Crowns of a colour. For each one you’ll get a prize~

- Blue Crown Character: 1 Strange Cube
- Yellow Crown Character: Special Additional Potential Stamp
- Green Crown Character: 60% Additional Potential Scroll

- Crown Stacking Master: Lucky Day Scroll
If you collect the ones that Cassandra asks you to, you will get the Master of Crown Stacking medal which gives 5 to all stats, 300 HP, and 3 attack and magic attack. It expires though.
Oh yeah, I forgot about the Mr. Radish Attendance Check which will be starting on May 27 and end on June 23! This event is 28 days long but you only need to participate for 21 days to get all the prizes.
Each day, log on and defeat 10 Mr. Radishes that will spawn all over the Maple World to complete the quest.
As you can see, the amount of days you participate will give you prizes!

The Root Abyss pets that were added in Tespia a while ago have finally been released, haha their food is the World Tree’s Fruit.
A new mount has been added to the Cash Shop, the Asteroid B612 riding! You can buy a 7 day version for 700 NX or a 30 day version for 1500 NX. It functions as an autopilot mount, so you can use it with that system, it will move faster than the regular balloons.
I hope you guys know where this is from! Le Petit Prince, what a cute book~
The Trendy Royal Hair Coupon costs 3500 NX and gives you one of 10 haircuts.
The Trendy Royal Face Coupon also costs 3500 NX and gives you one of 6 faces.
The Effie’s Box item which I mentioned in a previous post has had its prizes updated! There are now two autopilot mounts available, which move faster than the regular balloons.
And finally, my favourite part, the box can also give you one of 6 different Mesodizer chairs! There’s one for each colour of Mesoranger (red, blue, green, yellow, pink, black) and if you sit on them with others who have the other coloured chairs, you’ll form the fully transformed Mesodizer!
It’s such a cool idea and totally fun, I want them so badly~ You can even get a free medal and Black Mesoranger outfit if you post a screenshot of you and your friends with the completed Mesodizer on the MapleStory homepage!
