Hmm about 8 MB bigger than the KMST client. I suppose nexon has given up on the convention of release patch in tespia -> release tweak patch 1/2/3/4/etc -> release in official and instead opted for what seems to be the more effective option (whether this be in money or time, i dunno) of release patch in tespia -> release tweak patch in official server. Tweak patch being the same as the "final" product. I guess they realized they're doing constant revamps all the time anyway so no point in making all these really silly minor changes over the course of multiple tespia patches.

Or they ran out of scheduled time... Considering it's late in October.

Well duh. They've been doing revamps long enough to know roughly how much time it would take to finish their plans. If they didn't have some level of confidence in the changes they're making they would have released it in the test server a lot earlier, resulting in more planning time because of all the feedback they would get by having it out longer. Instead they waited till the end of the month when we both know they've been considering these changes for longer than before the poll was up.

They don't do one patch at a time. They balance the first patch with the other patches in mind, which means they have some idea of what they want to do long before it's actually fleshed out. Running out of time is far from the main reason they only did one tespia patch.

Wonder what changes they made

And if Evans will stay remotely strong after this? O.o

Or no changes was needed :f6:

*Shakes Fist*
They better raise the buff durations for the early (yet essential) Battle Mage buffs. There was no changes to it in tespia so i've been hoping that they would have updated it for the main release.

Also... please don't buff the fairy boss
I need that medal and i cant be arsed doing it in a party.

So far, I've been inspecting Aran and found some changes:

*Final Charge, Combo Smash, Fenrir, Final Toss, Rolling Spin, Judgement and Final Blow now works with Final Attack.
*Maha's Blessing has a cooler look.

However, the sound.wz is looking messed up to me now.

Glorious days of where Overswing + Final Blow are useless and Final Toss is the only form of good DPS have returned.

Also, here's hoping Final Attack is still 20 points.

I wanna see those last minutes changes, it will help me make my mind on what to make on KMS tonight.

If i knew how on calcuating the damage of these skills, I would give more information.

Went on my Battle Mage in KMS to check out new stuff..

Hm.. looks like they moved Advanced Blue Aura back to 3rd. Though.. it activates Advanced even without meeting the Basic requirement? (had 1 Advanced Blue before patch & didn't SP reset)

 Spoiler

Oh yeh!, Body Boost activates ALL active Aura effects! Just tested it right now.

=O coolio!

I would've been fine w/ it activating just one, but all 3's pretty awesome~

This update is called Advance of the Union.

They sure rushed this patch. I wonder how often they are planning to patch the next content. If they used a 3 weeks interval like with Jump, they'd be done by middle december when they usually take until January to finish they big updates.

Maybe Pirates vs Ninjas update will be bigger than we expect.

The first class revamp of this update isn't big and I think the second will be minor just like the first part. The third, however, will be the biggest.
The MS Team has their schedule when to release content in Tespia and the public server.

I remember checking out screenshots from Demon Slayer in the client from the developer with a Saint Saver stone on the left side of the screen. The Saint Saver event was held in May for KMS. Demon Slayer came out officially in August.
I think that the MS Team is currently busy with the second and third part of the revamp.

Remember those pics Asiasoft took when MSEAers won a chance to get into Nexon Korea's HQ?

They were taken in March, and Big Bang was released in the Winter... they do things almost a year in advance so it shouldn't have been rushed.

Big Bang was supposed to come out in March for KMS, but it was postponed till the Summer of 2010.
