Like I brought up during a discussion of Magnus, Nexon was putting themselves in a corner. Especially given their history, a game revamp of this magnitude should have been expected. Especially with Winter coming and Tempest being rather...lackluster compared to other "big" updates.
Big Bang wasn't exactly the greatest patch at first if anyone remembers. it was released to KMST in quite a few parts. and they altered those numerous times. Nexon Korea knows that something of this magnitude would completely destroy their playerbase if they released only this into the official server with no other changes.
A class/damage formula overhaul is inevitable. The question is, are they going to give everyone enough power to make these updates redundant/pointless as hell? Or are they actually going to balance this crap out so Bosses still require an expedition of a couple parties without blocking out the majority of Maplestory from participating?
Whatever the case. Expect another revamp in 6 months to 1 year to fix whatever they pineapple up this time.
