v.99 - Chaos: Age of Heroes Update Notes

* The Knight Stronghold is packed with Cygnus Knight enemies that have the same skills as Cygnus Knights you can create, but are much more powerful than any Cygnus Knight in the present.

Except my Dawn Warrior, who does about 260k per target.

They do have a tad more HP, though.

How the flop?

So are these new Adventurer Rings stackable with the old Adventurer Rings? If not, it saves me time to level the DB even further.

They don't stack.

FangBlade is not present in the Warriors' Sanctuary in Perion.

i had thought it would be a tespia thing >.<

Erm, I missed the part where they actually -announced- the lvlup 40 times to get:
- Critical ring
- Blood mask
- Onyx glasses

Where is this event mentioned, I know kMS got it, but I dont see it anywhere? Does gMS even get it? Because I don't read anything about it in the patch notes... o.0

Try reading the actual patchnotes page, this isn't the full thing.

well I already knew about the other event so I'm ready

How the flop?

Good gear, I guess? Plus holy-weak... That damage in the pic is 279k total. With good damage on all 4 hits 300k+ would be possible.

mine does at most 30~40k per, with most of my DrK's items (tradeables one) so that is o.O

Buffed range is 8.6k, I'm using a 96 atk Red Katana and have ~162 total w.atk which I realize is out of reach of most players o.o

Plus, I have crusaded towards all-tradeable gear, so the DW's at 38% (compared to Paladin's 45%, atm - difference is required dex, DW can't equip the Taru Spirit Cape without some sacrifices elsewhere)

There are a lot of multipliers going around with dawn warriors.

Plus ACA was a lot bigger boost than I thought it was gonna be. Too lazy to get the skill on my drk to compare though.
With the majority of my drk gear (same as stereo in that I go for as much tradeable as possible) and my pallys shield and sword those numbers above were way more than possible.

well, i have more %str, but i barely have any attack, using a clean last unwelcome sword, clean shield, and +17 BoF.

he has around 7k buffed i believe.

oh, and i meant on ele-neutral.

I'm shocked no one commented on this yet:

THIS!!!! OMG SO MUCH THIS!!!!!!

Ill be able to level ALL my characters now! AND partake in the leveling events.

For the Explorer's Rings, do you get to pick which one you want? or is it random?

You get to pick.

FangBlade is not present in the Warriors' Sanctuary in Perion.

oh no.

FangBlade not being in the warrior's sanctuary anymore, along with the Post-BB experience table being lower, new 160+ training areas, 140+ equips, and a boss that's disgustingly powerful (a party of 3-18 for Empress? really? THREE? c'mon, REALLY?), makes me wonder if the FIFTH update for GMS isn't going to have something to do with increasing the level cap and adding a FIFTH job at lvl 180.

However, that's just me having wishful thinking. Realistically, a 5th job would require extensive play testing behind the scenes, and to keep one so hush-hush for such a long time would be nearly impossible. On the other hand... my friend Joe (veteran Beran's know him as xxMuginxx, also level 200 in Bera), told me last year around this time (when Spadow's blog started talking about Big Bang in KMST) that he was quitting until THIS year. He left me with a conversation similar to this:

(not verbatim)
Joe: "I'm quitting til 5th job"
Me: "lol noob, there's no 5th job"
Joe: "just watch"
Me: "dude, there's no 5th job. so many level 200's would rage quit. Not to mention the 19x's that were almost to the end level... so many people would just stop what they were doing and gtfo lol"
Joe: "i'm tellin you man, after big bang, there's two more major updates. and during one of them, we gonna get a higher level cap and 5th job. it's already in JMS!" <-- he may have said a different server, i don't remember...
Me: "lol just say you're quitting maple, man. sell me your gear "

Anyway... Of course, I googled "lvl 250 level cap maple story" and all types of variations and found nothing about any official server or test server having a higher level cap or 5th job. However, his accuracy of 3 major updates does sound intriguing...

I can't seem to find the stats for the adventurer rings...can anyone tell me which would be better for a mage?

The Magical Ring.
