Thanks for the interesting info. I look forward to the Level 100+ contents.
Really though, Racie is kind enough to provide translations to enlighten everybody here. You guys can do better than to insult Racie's English. I personally didn't have too much trouble reading the translation...

Kms Future Plans Q/A - Saar331 - 2009-12-13
Haha! stronger mages and paladins! finally!
too bad a hero is not in for the updates.... we're still noobs :[
a lv100+ training area,thats ok,but lv100+ doesnt mean it should be just 105
100+ should be 130+!

What is wrong with Marksmen? The only thing I can think of that might need tweaking is Snipe so that it has the option of doing damage on boss monsters similar to an Aran's Combo Tempest.
Paladins have the most problems of any class. They are seriously underpowered in most situations and are thus forced to train at Skeles for eternity. The use of elemental charges has become more of a liability than an advantage.
Archmages are a constant sources of problems from all aspects.
Nobody likes Shadowers because Buccaneers are more fun for a speedy close combat job.

Yeah, it's already really strong in second job! thats COMPLETELY the one job of shadowers that needs buffing.

Anyone up for a Quadruple Throw? Or maybe even a Duodecuple Throw?
Kms Future Plans Q/A - ScherzoDeLuce - 2009-12-13
FINE !!
remove the dark sight requirement to use assassinate skill then. and make it able to hit 3 target instead of single target.
reduce meso guard's meso consumption.
reduce assaulter delay.
Kms Future Plans Q/A - Kabanaw - 2009-12-13
From what I could read (thank you Racie it's understandable) It sounds like they're going to be changing base damage on skills, or maybe a new formula(I think they said this was a bad idea though). It also said they were going to be adding some "down skills," meaning either they're going to nerf it or they're going to add a cooldown.
Why are you guys complaining about how much these classes need fixing when they said that they're going to fix them?
Kms Future Plans Q/A - Alloy - 2009-12-13
Did they mention anything regarding level limitation areas?
WHY CAN'T THEY MAKE A DUPLICATE AND MAKE IT HARD MODE FOR PEOPLE OVER THE LIMIT?
Kms Future Plans Q/A - Chuey - 2009-12-13
Read was alright, interested me. (though I probably will forget all of it extremely fast o-o). But these questions just excite me in thinking that old stuff needs updating and we're finally getting our upper-level content. About freaking time!
Kms Future Plans Q/A - Torchic111 - 2009-12-13
I stopped my chief dit at lvl 84 for a year now.
I wish they increase range for BoT and make the delay of assaulter to "almost-no-delay".

Racie Wrote:Q. I'm raising Shadower. Meso Explosion/Person who plays Shadower is less....Speed and Damage all..
A. This job is REALLY needed to be changed first.. Archma.Paladin.. so many words about this job is been planned to be changed.. Dando[thief-bandit] is going to be changed ALOT. This plan already started.. later .. is going to be released soon.. have to do something.. balancing will strongly going to be approached..
After finishing Balancing , we will going to release higher lvl contents
OH BOY!
Honestly, there's really nothing wrong with the Shadower class. They're pretty much perfect, and I don't see how they're unbalanced. But if they say so, how can I complain?
MAYBE WE'LL GET A BOSSING SKILL!
Kms Future Plans Q/A - Sarah - 2009-12-13
Maybe mages will get a bossing skill too...
Would be cool to get a new skill and some SP through job quests. There aren't enough job-specific quests after level... 14.
Kms Future Plans Q/A - byakugan - 2009-12-13
Yes make it so mages outdamage all the other jobs on bosses as they already do in training speed. you could also increase Ultimates speed so they train much faster too.
It makes me laugh how some of you are asking for tweaks to jobs that are already very good in their areas, yet you still talk about balance. The only Archmage Job that needs a tweat is the Fire/Posion one.

The use of elemental charges has become more of a liability than an advantage.You're forgetting Bigfoot and Oblivion 4 with maxed Heaven's Hammer. But that's kind of annoying anyway, since you don't even get to fight anything half the time.
Kms Future Plans Q/A - Fiel - 2009-12-13
Removed a lot of the Engrish.
Korean Maplestory Future Plans
1. Archmage, Shadower, and Paladin skills improved or changed by March 2010, but likely in January
2. After fixing these skills, another big patch with new places for levels 100+ to train.
3. Windowed mode is being developed for KMS.
4. They won't decrease Pink Bean's HP or change anything regarding the battle.
5. They are doing their best to stop bots.
6. Reason why they fixed the exp distribution : "If you don't train yourself to get EXP, there is no sense of reward in that. We don't intend to change this."
Q. An Aran player recently achieved level 200. What do you think about going back to change Adventurers?
A. When making Aran, we knew that we would eventually have to go back and change Adventurers. The concept of Aran itself was to have a slow early growth compensated by a stronger end game. Since Aran's earlier growth is stronger than Adventurers at the outset, Adventurers need the rebalance.
Q. When are Adventurers going to get stronger or rebalanced skills?
A: Patches for skill balancing are planned for January
Q: If you improve Adventurers, which classes specifically are you looking to improve?
A: I'm sure everyone's thinking about archmages getting a skill rebalance or improvement. This might be addressed in the previously mentioned balancing patch. After seeing Archmages play in the actual game, I was thinking about modifying the Magic Damage formula, but this has yet to be seen.
Q. Are you planning on addressing Archmage and Bishop ultimates?
A. We were thinking about making a change to the ultimates sometime this month, but why change the formula when the original problem remains untouched? So it might be better this time around to change the skills directly rather than release items which boost or add damage. This is a hard question to answer as it is troublesome.
Q. I'm a 23-year-old and I currently have a Bishop planning on leveling to 200 in Mardia. Why isn't there more content for higher leveled players?
A. We agree. We had a problem here too - do we address Archmages first or do we address higher leveled content first? So we have to decide which is the best option to patch first. If class balancing needs to be done quickly, then we'll do it first. So far, we believe we have up to level 100 handled quite nicely as of now, so maybe as soon as March we'll have another ultra big patch for higher leveled players.
Q. When is windowed mode coming out?
A. This has been a common complaint. I know that many of you have used windowed mode. But on our side, we had a problem. We can't know when windowed mode is set or disabled by default on the server, so we're having a problem dealing with screen resolutions. We have had other problems as well, such as continuing to deploy only for Windows XP when many of our users have moved on to other operating systems. These problems will be addressed in due time, most likely by Summer.
Q. Why keep making new servers? And why cant Cygnus, Adventurers, and Aran all share cash items together?
A. When we patched Pirates into the game, we didn't make much money on it. Also, there weren't enough users playing Maplestory to compensate our cost of creating a whole new class. We wanted to recoup this cost with Cygnus Knights. Even if we could have these classes share items, we would only want to have Cygnus Knights share with Adventurers.
Q. I'm currently raising a shadower. Meso Explosion makes me want to play a Shadower less since it's not as powerful as the other classes.
A. This job really needs alterations, like Archmages and Paladins. The bandit class is going to be changed a lot in future patches. The planned patch that will be released soon will have something to do with balancing this class with others. After finishing the class balancing, we will then release higher level content.

Ooo, thanks Fiel.
That's nice to hear. Magic damage formula rebalance? :O
