kMSt ver. 1.2.416 – New Equips, UI, and Aswan Additions!
The character selection screen has been reorganized! It now shows 8 characters on one page, and has two new buttons, Part-time (Arbeit) and Character Card. I don’t think they do anything right now, but I did talk about the Part-time UI in my last post. I think this new screen looks very nice!
Look pas the cut for information on the new things added in Aswan, and in the data! There’s another new UI and new high-leveled equipment!
The Character Card UI has been added as well (pictures thanks to Fiel of Southperry)! This seems very interesting… what is Nexon planning? The Character Deck picture has writing that says effects, will this Character Card system give us some bonuses?
The Aswan Liberation War has received a new mode called Defend. In this version, you protect the Cygnus Guard Stone from an oncoming onslaught of monsters! To win, you must both protect the stone and defeat a certain number of Destroyers, a new mob only present in this mode. Look, it’s the one that was shown in Inkwell’s Secret Diary! Aswan also received a quest line, although it’s pretty short I think. I wasn’t able to finish because I could barely finish Easy Mode, and the quests required to do all three modes (Easy, Normal, and Hard)…
P.S. If you haven’t already, check out my last post for the new Inkwell’s Secret Diary entry, it has to do with server versus server competition! In game, you can now check the status of this war by talking to Gardin! There are 6 rounds in total, but you can only participate between 2pm and 8pm. Since that time hasn’t arrived yet and this content was just added today, there is nothing to show. Tomorrow I assume it will have the different servers competing!
New items were added, including a “new” level 130 set, although the items themselves look the same as the current level 130 set. There is the Emperor’s Brave set for warriors, Emperor’s Memories set for magicians, Emperor’s Sharpness set for archers, Emperor’s Swift set for thieves, and the Emperor’s Fervent set for pirates. There’s also some new accessory sets, and again they have the same graphics as the current level 130 set. They’re split into three levels, each one with better stats than the next. The Duke’s Accessories set for level 80, the Conquerer’s Accessories set for level 100, and the Emperor’s Accessories set for level 130.

niceeeee !
New Character Screen is great!
Tree house :3
I think i fell in love with the new login screen 😀
Max, do you know the stats on the new Lvl 130 equips?
are they better then empress (L140) gear, or better then PvP gear, or better than both?
thank! and keep up the good work
I think that it would take too long for me to tell you, but you can see all the stats of all the new equipment here~
thanks! seems like a good set!
Shouldn’t that be a Maple tree? After all, it’s MapleStory
New character selection screen…Does this lead to the possibility of Nexon expanding the max number of characters in a single server beyond 15? With so many classes already released and more to come I would really hate to have to delete characters in order to play new ones.
New login screen is epic.
sweet
I love the new log in screen, it’s a good change to the older boring one.
Isn’t “arbeit” the german word for work/job? I wonder what that’s about.
In Japan they took the word “arbeit” and assimilated into their language as a word for part time job, I imagine it would be the same for Korea, but I could be wrong
They might have.
All my Korean friends that play MapleStory read it and were like… am I reading this right? Why does it say part-time job? xD
Well, that makes sense. A lot of things in Maple since Big Bang came out have been German-based. (Edelstein, Leben/Verne Mines, the Black Mage (who is like Hitler), the Black Wings (Nazi), Meisterville, etc.)
The log-in screen is so pretty 😀
Wait, so server vs. server has something to do with Aswan? Can someone clarify this to me?
I expect a pvp type of gameplay for world wide war , maybe 2 totems for each side and worlds are required to destroy the totems/defend own totem from incoming characters . Smth liddat I guess
p/s izzat Steve?
yugioh cards? o.o
YESSS! YESSSSS YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!
I HOPE THAT HAPPENS
because there WERE NO OTHER card games before yu-gi-oh right?!
Ooo
Thr new char screen is awsome. !
GAY
any chance you got a link to that new character select ui without any characters ?
I hope there will be new weapon / armor replacement for them, would be boring seeing the same old equipments.
New character screen is great. Lets you flip through faster, AND looks better. Gotta say I will miss the old “sky-dock” though.
Max you know when you make a character right? The character creation screen, the screen where you can choose the gender options for the character, are they gonna make a new background for tht?
It’s still the same, but they may make a new one soon 😮
i love the new login screen. Tired of the seeing the same old login screen for 6years (msea). And i hope there will be a new login screen bgm too.
Wow this is…new, I totally didn’t see it coming
Anyone know what’s the battle mode for?
This is random, but how do you level up your equips? (if they can, like reverse/timeless weapons, forceshields, etc.)
you just kill monsters and the exp is shared
oh i see, thanks
You just have them equipped while training and they’ll gain experience with you 🙂
how do you join Tespia?
If you mean GMST, you don’t join Tespia, you’re invited. The only time you were able to sign up is when it first came out. And it isn’t that fun… I’m in it, trust me. KMST is fun because you actually are the first people to try it. Remember, Tespia isn’t some club like people think, it’s testing and reporting glitches.
For KMST you just sign up when they open sign ups with your kMS account and you get randomly selected. And the registrations open at the start of each term, which lasts for about 3 months.
