The first patch of the MapleStory Glory update has been released (a little more than a week ago but that’s besides the point). This patch, titled The Day After, is the beginning of the new story after the defeat of the Black Mage. It’s basically a pre-update patch since it doesn’t have much content, but there are a lot of QoL changes. I’m going to cover two patches in one since they put out another patch this week to add a Burning World (the servers are way crowded haha) and some other bug fixes. There was a KMST patch last week for the content we’ll be getting on July 4 so I will just cover that when it hits the official servers this week. I’m also working on the Ho Young skill translations, that’ll be out whenever its done Spring Project All world’s base character slots have been expanded from 4 to 8. When you are wearing multiple rings or pendants, the range difference shown on the tooltip used to only be based on the item in the first slot, which made it difficult to compare them. You can now click the mouse wheel while hovering over one to compare the item to a different ring or pendant you are wearing. Equipment tooltips will now show the number of upgrade slots you can recover using Clean Slate Scrolls, beside the number of available upgrade slots. The number of upgrade slots available and the ‘Golden Hammer applied’ text’s locations have been changed to make them easier to see at a glance. You can now right click on hotkeys to remove them. You can no longer open the V Matrix UI while the Shortcut Settings UI is open. To keep upgraded Cores safer, when you open the V Matrix UI by talking to a V Core Master NPC, you must now enter your 2nd password to open it. To prevent accidental disassembly of upgraded Cores, a notice will popup if you attempt to disassemble upgraded Cores. To prevent mistakes when disassembling Cores, the ‘new Core acquired’ effect will disappear when clicked. 5th job skills’ tooltips will now show if their master level has been increased using V Matrix Slot enhancements. When Star Force enhancing, to prevent mistakes, after you check the Destruction Protection box, it will remain checked even after your enhancement is completed. You can now use Return to Nearest Town Scrolls and the Maple Guide’s teleports while inside the Dream Breaker entry map. An information quest has been added for the Dream Breaker ranker rewards. In Urus, to prevent accidental matching, after 18 people have been gathered, the matching button will be disabled. The Torrential Zone’s Bait have been removed and replaced with Runes. Fritto’s portals’ experience rewards have been increased for places with monsters level 120 or higher. The difficulty of Fritto’s Egg Thief mission has been decreased. You can no longer use pets in Flag Race to reduce confusion and ensure fair matches. When you are resetting an item’s potential, the UI will now display the remaining number of cubes. If your potential’s rank goes up, the ‘One More Time’ button will be disabled to prevent mistakes. You can now change your pet’s auto pot settings while being hit by monsters. In the Maple Auction, the option to search for exact keyword matches first has been added. In the Maple Auction, when selling items, a popup will show the price per unit and total selling price in Korean. When buying items that cannot be purchased more than one at a time in NPC stores, it will no longer ask for your purchase quantity. The repurchase tab in NPC stores has been revised to provide more information. When advancing dialogue in certain content or when reviving other characters in Urus, instead of the fixed Space key you can now use your NPC Chat key. Reboot world’s item tooltips have been improved to show if they are actually tradeable. When using the Teleport World Map on the World Map, if you cancel the usage the directions will now be displayed. When talking to the Unknown Mage and asking him to return a Soul Weapon to a regular weapon, a guide to resetting Soul Weapons will be displayed. The Cash Wardrobe now has a sorting feature. You can now search using one character. When searching with one character, only item names will be searched. When a Safety Charm expires, a message to purchase a new one will be displayed. When you are using a Luna Crystal, you can now see the trade between the base and the result right from the UI. Certain Cash items can now be placed on quick slots and used with shortcuts. When using Android shops, they will now show the image of your equipped Android. Cash items that cannot be traded will now have the Untradeable tag in their item tooltip. You can now delete unneeded Cash items in the Cash Shop by right clicking on them in the Cash Shop’s Cash Wardrobe and choosing delete. When you are using a Masterpiece, only items that can be used as a base or material will be selectable in the inventory. The VIP Hair Dye Coupon’s colour choices will now be the same in all towns. When you are trying to change your character hair and it is not saved in a Mannequin, a confirmation window will appear. However, if you have the hair saved but it is a different colour than your current one, the confirmation will not appear. Items that cannot be refunded after purchasing will now display that information in the Cash Shop.
