    The third and final patch of the Maple LIVE update has been released. It contains the new boss, Guardian Angel Slime, meant to fill in the ranges between Normal Demian and Easy Lucid (Hard mode) and between Hard Will and Chaos Dusk (Chaos mode). There is also the boss rewards reorganization, various QoL improvements from the Voice of Maplers initiative, and new daily content for Morass and Esfera.

    There were a few changes from the test server update to this one, and they released a notice with the details. I’ll put that at the beginning of the post for people who read the KMST notes.

    Changes from KMST ver. 1.2.126

    <New Boss> Guardian Angel Slime


    The Guardian Angel Slime’s difficulty has been adjusted.

    • Guardian Angel Slime’s damage reduction effect has been changed from 50% to 30%.
    • The groggy state duration has been changed from 10 seconds to 15 seconds.
    • The damage dealt to Guardian Angel Slime during the groggy state has been increased by 10% final damage.
    • The Holy Gates and Magma Slimes’ collision ranges have been expanded.

    The Holy Gates’ slime images have been changed based on the colour.


    Developer Notes:

    We have decreased the damage reduction effect that the Guardian Angel Slime has normally, and added a final damage boost effect when you pass the Guardian Wave pattern to make dealing damage easier.

    In addition, the Holy Gates’ designs have been changed so they can be distinguished by factors other than colour so that colour-blind players can see the differences easily.
    Boss Rewards Reorganization


    The Absolabs and Arcane Shade equipment’s set effects have been changed. The Absolabs set’s 3~5 set attack and magic attack boosts have been changed as shown below.

    [​IMG]

    The Arcane Shade set’s 3~5 set attack and magic attack boosts have been changed as shown below.

    [​IMG]


    Developer Notes:

    We made certain adjustments to the order of set effects so that the transition from Absolabs equipment to Arcane Shade equipment could be done in stages without a drop in specs.

    Unintentionally in this process, if you equipped a Genesis Weapon, you would receive the Root Abyss 4 set, Meister 4 set, and Absolabs or Arcane Shade 4 set, giving you a 20% boss damage boost compared to before.

    When considering the individual stats of each item, for Arcane Shade equipment, getting the 5 set effect would increase your specs more than the above equipment set, but for Absolabs equipment, the set above would give slightly more specs than the 5 set effect.

    However, to make it more meaningful for players that are currently using 5 set Absolabs equipment to transition to higher level equipment, 5 set Arcane Shade, instead of trying to get the above equipment set as their next goal, we have moved some of the attack/magic attack stats that were in the 3~4 set effects for Absolabs and Arcane Shade equipment to the 5 set effects in the official server update.

    The following items will be maintained as boss rewards.

    • Potential Scroll
    • Advanced Potential Scroll
    • Chaos Fragment
    • Twisted Time Essence
    Spring! Spring! Project


    The item sort lock feature has been improved. If an equipment item is equipped after being locked then unequipped, it will now maintain its sort lock feature.

    Fixed an issue where you could not enter the Hallowed Ground.

    Etc Improvements


    In NPC shops, the meso limit for selling an item has been changed from 2b mesos to 10b mesos.

    Welcome to Ramuramu Valley
    https://orangemushroom.files.wordpress.com/2021/08/bgm57.img_.welcome-to-ramuramu-valley_new.mp3

    Historical Site of Slime
    https://orangemushroom.files.wordpress.com/2021/08/bgm57.img_.historical-site-of-slime_new.mp3

    Following a mysterious invitation, you arrive at Ramuramu Valley where cute slimes live. Test your strength by confronting the cute and powerful Guardian Angel Slime, who has been crowned by the God of Slimes!

    [​IMG]

    Participation Requirements:

    • Characters level 210 or higher who have completed the 5th job advancement can accept the “[Ramuramu] Who is Really, Really, Really the Cutest?” quest.
    • You can talk to the Mysterious Stone Statue at the Guardian Angel Slime’s Altar to enter.

    [​IMG]

    Guardian Slime Battle
    https://orangemushroom.files.wordpr...bossguardianslime.guardianslimebattle_new.mp3

    Guardian Slime Wave
    https://orangemushroom.files.wordpr..._.bossguardianslime.guardianslimewave_new.mp3

    There are two difficulties: Normal (level 220) and Chaos (level 250). The only differences between difficulties are its HP, damage from attacks, and the speed at which you gain the ability to use the special skills.

    You can enter once per day per difficulty mode (there is a 30 minute re-entry cooldown). You can clear up to once per week (regardless of difficulty mode).

    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    When you enter, you’ll be in the Ramuramu Temple. Here you’ll see the boss as well as four different coloured Holy Gates in the corners of the maps. You can attack the Guardian Angel Slime at this point but you deal 30% reduced damage.

    It has two HP bars, a light green and dark green bar. The light green bar is its actual HP while the dark green bar is how much it can heal. The boss heals some of its HP every few seconds, up to the dark green bar. Your damage will not affect the dark green bar the majority of the time.

    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    Magma Slimes will spawn around the map and you can use the special skill Mascot Slime’s Help – Energy Shot to push the Magma Slimes into the gates. When a gate is covered by 3 slimes, it is closed.

    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    After a few minutes, the second phase will start. The Guardian Wave will start moving from the top of the map, along the platforms. You can use the Mascot Slime’s Help – Crystal skill to install crystals that block and change the direction of the wave.

    The point of this phase is to lead the Guardian Wave of slimes into one of the gates that you blocked in the first phase (if you blocked all four, then you can just wait for them to enter any gate).

    [​IMG]

    If you successfully lead the Guardian Wave into one of the gates you blocked, you can return to the top of the map where the Guardian Angel Slime will be in a groggy state for 15 seconds. During this time, you will deal full damage plus an additional 10% final damage. The damage you deal at this time will lower the dark green bar as well.

    And then you repeat this process until it’s dead!

    [​IMG]

    The Guardian Angel Slime drops a new item, the Guardian Angel Ring (Lv. 160 ring, gives 5 all stats, 200 HP/MP, 2 attack/magic attack with 2 slots). It is part of the Boss Accessory set and is tradeable until equipped.

    [​IMG] [​IMG]
    In addition, if you kill Chaos Guardian Angel Slime 10 times, you will get the Guardian Angel Crown, a permanent Cash hat!


    Developer Notes:

    We want to provide a new goal by adding a boss, the ‘Guardian Angel Slime’ to the range where the desire to challenge new bosses was decreased because the hurdles to reach the next stage were too high.

    By adding the Guardian Angel Slime, we wanted to provide new fun by providing a mid-step boss and by breaking away from the ‘ignore mechanics and just DPS’ pattern. We expect that the newly added challenge experience will have a positive effect on players with the fun elements of games you used to enjoy in arcades.

    The main reward is a new part of the Boss Accessory set, the level 160 ‘Guardian Angel Ring’. Currently, a character can equip a total of 4 rings, so we wanted to provide more diverse ring combinations to players.


    Here’s a video of the boss!

    Boss Rewards Reorganization


    [​IMG]

    The selling prices of Intense Power Crystals will now change at regular intervals.

    • Intense Power Crystal prices for daily and weekly bosses will change every Thursday at 12:00 AM. The prices for monthly bosses will change every 1st day of the month at 12:00 AM.
    • Intense power Crystals can be sold for the prices that they had at the time they were acquired.
    • You can check the prices of currently dropped Crystals by talking to the Collector NPC and clicking the ‘Check Prices’ button.

    ※ The Intense Power Crystal prices will change starting from August 19 at 12:00 AM for daily and weekly bosses and from September 1 at 12:00 AM for monthly bosses. ※


    Developer Notes:

    Currently, the route that creates the most amount of mesos in MapleStory is the selling of Intense Power Crystals obtained from bosses. The difficulty of growing characters to be strong enough to defeat bosses has gradually decreased while the prices of the Crystals stayed the same. As a result, it was expected that the mesos created would gradually increase and we decided that it would be difficult to properly control meso inflation. Therefore, we have applied a system where the selling prices of Intense Power Crystals changes dynamically by looking at the percentage of boss clears and difficulty indicators from a certain period of time. In order to minimize the impact on the market, the changes in Intense Power Crystal selling prices have been set to be within 3% per week.

    ※ The type, rate, and maximum number of dropped items are different based on the boss. ※

    ※ Item drop rate increasing effects do not apply to these items. ※

    ※ The drop rates of these items are planned to be changed with updates for a certain period of time. ※

    ※ The Additional Experience 50% Coupon Voucher can be used to acquire an Additional Experience 50% Coupon which is tradeable and expires in 7 days. ※

    ※ The Premium Accessory Scroll Voucher, Premium Pet Equipment Scroll Voucher, Magical Weapon Scroll Voucher, and Accessory Scroll Voucher can be used to acquire scrolls which are tradeable and expire in 30 days. ※


    Developer Notes:

    The existing boss rewards were not provided in proportion to their difficulty, and so a reverse phenomenon occured in certain ranges. With this reorganization, various tradeable consumable items and rare crafting materials have been added to boss rewards, and you can acquire more rewards as you face higher tier bosses.

    However, if a large number of tradeable items were released at once, it could have a significant impact on the in-game economy, so the drop rate will be adjusted every update for a certain period of time. If the drop rates are changed, we will notify you through the release notes at the time of the update.
    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    Absolabs and Arcane Shade equipment items have been changed to drop as vouchers. The following items will now be dropped instead of the previous Absolabs/Arcane Shade equipment.

    • Absolabs Armor Box (untradeable, expires in 7 days)
    • Absolabs Weapon Box (untradeable, expires in 7 days)
    • Arcane Shade Armor Box (untradeable, expires in 7 days)
    • Arcane Shade Weapon Box (untradeable, expires in 7 days)

    ※ In Reboot World, you can only select one of the items that your current character can equip. ※

    ※ Like before the update, item drop rate increasing effects do not apply to these items. ※

    The drop rate of Absolabs and Arcane Shade Equipment Boxes has been adjusted.

    • In regular worlds, the Armor Box drop rate has been increased to higher than the existing armor drop rate, and the Weapon Box drop rate has been decreased to lower than the existing weapon drop rate.
    • In Reboot World, the Armor Box drop rate has been increased to higher than the existing drop rate.
    • The drop rate of the Equipment Boxes will be higher for higher tier bosses.

    Developer Notes:

    Absolabs and Arcane Shade equipment items had a large variation in the acquisition experience based on what armor pieces and weapon types dropped. Through this reorganization, we expect that the reward experience will be equalized by changing it so that you can exchange for any equipment and supply items based on market demand.

    In addition, for the existing weapon and armor drop rates, they were not set based on value or demand, so for armor, we have changed them to drop more than before and for weapons, we have changed them to drop less than before.
    [​IMG] [​IMG]
    The Absolabs and Arcane Shade equipment’s set effects have been changed. The Absolabs set effects have been changed as shown below.

    [​IMG]

    The Arcane Shade set effects have been changed as shown below.

    [​IMG]


    Developer Notes:

    The existing Absolabs equipment and Arcane Shade equipment’s set effects were concentrated in the 5 set, so when changing from Absolabs to Arcane Shade, you had to change a lot of them at the same time to be able to change sets without losing damage.

    With the goal of making it easier to move from Absolabs equipment to Arcane Shade equipment, the 5 set effects of Absolabs and Arcane Shade equipment have been distributed to the 2~5 set effects and the order of Arcane Shade set effects has been adjusted.
    [​IMG] [​IMG]
    The Cursed Spellbook and Mitra’s Rage items have been improved to be dropped as vouchers. The following items will now be dropped instead of the previous Cursed Spellbooks/Mitra’s Rage.

    • Selective Cursed Spellbook Box (untradeable, expires in 7 days)
    • Selective Mitra’s Rage Box (untradeable, expires in 7 days)

    The completion requirements for the achievements when acquiring these items has been changed to acquiring the box.

    ※ In Reboot World, you can only select the Mitra’s Rage that matches your character’s job. ※

    ※ Like before the update, Reboot World’s increased boss equipment drop rate effect applies to these items. ※

    ※ Like before the update, item drop rate increasing effects do apply to these items. ※


    Developer Notes:

    The Cursed Spellbook and Mitra’s Rage items included in the Pitched Boss Accessory set had different jobs or main stats.

    Therefore, even if you acquired the items which had a very low drop rate, the reward experience was not good if you acquired one that you could not use. For Reboot World, this problem was even worse since it could not be traded. To solve these problems, we have changed Cursed Spellbooks and Mitra’s Rage to be dropped as boxes that let you choose what you want.

    [​IMG]

    The ‘Item Acquisition Permission setting’ feature has been added to the party settings.

    • You can set the item acquisition permission to ‘All’ or ‘Party Leader’ in the party UI’s party settings.
    • When set to ‘Party Leader’, only the party leader can loot items which were dropped as shared rewards.

    ※ You can check the party’s current permission setting at the bottom right of the party UI. ※

    ※ When the party’s permission setting is changed, a notification will be outputted as a system message. ※

    ※ Items dropped as individual rewards can be acquired regardless of the party setting. ※


    Developer Notes:

    When playing boss content, there were a lot of problems between players in the process of acquiring and distributing items dropped as shared rewards. We hope that adding the ability to change the setting of who can acquire items will minimize any disputes.

    In Reboot World, the selling prices of Intense Power Crystals has been changed to 5x the prices of regular worlds.

    The weekly limit of Intense Power Crystals sold to the Collector has been changed from 60 per character to 180 per world.


    Developer Notes:

    The existing 60 per character limit did not function practically as a reward acquisition limit. Since we are increasing boss rewards, we will set a new upper limit and proceed with the boss rewards reorganization. As a result of checking the accounts which recently sold Intense Power Crystals, we confirmed that only about 2.68% of them sold more than 180 per week, so we expect that most players’ experiences will not change.

    Existing boss rewards have been changed as shown below.

    • The following boss rewards have been removed.
      • 60% Chaos Scroll
      • Basic Additional Potential Stamp
      • Intermediate Additional Potential Stamp
      • Advanced Additional Potential Stamp
      • Basic Soul Enchanter
      • Regular weapons and armor
      • Pet Equipment Movement Speed Scrolls
      • Pet Equipment Jump Scrolls
      • Patience Potion
      • Awakening Potion
      • Invincibility Potion
      • Experience Accumulation Potion
      • Wealth Acquisition Potion
      • Silver Potential Stamp (Reboot)
    • The following boss rewards have been changed from individual rewards to shared rewards.
      • Strange Cube
      • Rebirth Flame Level 110/120/130/140/150
      • Enhanced Soul Enchanter
    • The following boss rewards have been changed from shared rewards to individual rewards.
      • Medal of Honor
      • Boss Medal of Honor
      • Zakum’s Soul Fragment
      • Hilla’s Soul Fragment
      • Papulatus’ Soul Fragment
      • Zakum’s Arm Voucher
    • The Zakum Certificate, Papulatus Certificate, and Pianus Certificate will no longer drop.

    Developer Notes:

    For boss rewards, we want to keep the total amount of rewards as equal as possible regardless of the method of fighting the boss or the number of party members.

    Therefore, we want to keep certain rewards like Soul Fragments, equipment exchange materials, skill Core Gemstones, and cosmetic items as individual rewards and change the rest to shared rewards.

    For items that were dropped as shared rewards, if it was more appropriate to have them be individual rewards like Honor, we have changed them accordingly.

    The experience of acquiring Mileage after defeating bosses has been improved. The amount of Milage acquired has been changed based on the clear limits (daily/weekly/monthly).

    • Daily bosses: 30 Mileage
    • Weekly bosses: 200 Mileage
    • Monthly bosses: 1000 Mileage

    Together with the changes in Mileage acquired, the daily limit on Mileage that can be acquired through gameplay in Maple World has been increased from 5,000 to 10,000.

    The following quests have been added so that you can acquire Mileage when defeating all weekly/monthly bosses.

    • [Mileage] Defeat Normal Suu
    • [Mileage] Defeat Normal Demian

    • [Mileage] Defeat Chaos Dusk
    • [Mileage] Defeat Hard Dunkel
    • [Mileage] Defeat Jin Hilla

    The quests to defeat Theme Dungeon bosses can no longer be completed.

    • [Mileage] Theme Dungeon: Defeat Mole King
    • [Mileage] Theme Dungeon: Defeat Captain Black Slime
    • [Mileage] Theme Dungeon: Defeat Demolishizer

    • [Mileage] Theme Dungeon: Defeat Ephinia
    • [Mileage] Theme Dungeon: Defeat Ravana
    • [Mileage] Theme Dungeon: Defeat Targa, Scarlion
    • [Mileage] Theme Dungeon: Defeat Tarantulus

    The boss Mileage quests have been changed so that they can be completed starting at the minimum entry level for each boss.

    You must destroy all the Dimensional Gates within the time limit to clear the mission. If you run out of time, you will fail the mission.

    ※ The Twisted Dimensional Gates can only be destroyed using the Shumet Special Turret’s attacks. ※

    [​IMG]

    After you complete the mission, you can acquire 2 Arcane Symbols: Esfera by talking to Shubert at the exit map. You can acquire up to 6 per day.


    Here’s a video of me playing it. This one is really annoying lol, you have to kill the mobs to collect Erda then shoot the gates on the right. It takes longer than the other Arcane dailies so I hope they make it a bit easier.

    Monsters


    [​IMG]

    In Will, when the Dimension Collapse pattern activates, if you are soloing the boss, it has been improved so that you can attack the Watching Eye in the same dimension you are in to cause the Moonlight Orbs and Black Orbs to fall.


    Developer Notes:

    In Will’s Dimension Collapse pattern, we received an inquiry about Night Lord and Shadower’s Dark Flare being installed in one dimension but it would disappear and the orbs would not fall in the other dimension. We confirmed that this issue was not a skill disappearing issue. When both Will and the Watching Eye were in Dark Flare’s range, it could only attack one enemy so it appeared to be of no use since it was hitting Will instead of the Eye.

    This wasn’t a problem with Dark Flare itself, but we determined that a pattern that could not be defeated without having certain types of skills was somewhat unreasonable, so we wanted to improve Will’s pattern.

    The Dimension Collapse pattern was intended as a gimmick to take advantage of party play, and you can still use this advantage of cooperating with your party members to find the safe dimensional before the first Collapse pattern is activated, so we want to slightly lower the hurdles experienced from the second Collapse when soloing the boss.

    [​IMG]

    In Hard Lucid, it has been improved so that when entering phase 3, any patterns that were about to activate will now disappear.

    [​IMG]

    In Hungry Muto, the monsters’ ingredient drop rates have been changed to be the same.

    Items

    • You can buy this item and equip it over all weapons (except Blades) to make them transparent.
    • The Transparent Claw/Knuckle/Gauntlet Revolver have been removed from sale in the Cash Shop.
    Potential Stats


    The rates of certain potential stats have been changed.


    Developer Notes:

    Now that the Cube rates have been revealed, we would like to adjust Cube’s stats like we talked about at the last conference. This adjustment had the goal of removing certain less useful stats or limiting the number of lines to make useful options appear more.

    In this improvement, to avoid significantly changing the value of existing items, we have selected stats that only appear in one equipment type and have limited the changes to be within 10%.

    In the future, we will continue to make further improvements while observing the change in values of items through changes in potential stats.

    Detailed rates will be posted on the homepage at the time of the official server update.

    In the set rates for each stat, the critical damage +% stat was displayed as two, but they have been combined into one.


    Developer Notes:

    In the past, the ‘minimum/maximum critical damage +%” stat was changed to ‘critical damage +%’, resulting in two stats with the same name. This time, we have added up the rates of each line and combined them into one.

    The appearance rates of the following stats have been changed. These rates do not affect items that you already have, and will only be reflected when items first have potential revealed or when reset through Cubes.

    • The following stats will no longer appear when using Red Cubes, Black Cubes, Craftsman’s Cubes, or Meister Cubes.
      • (Unique) Damage when attacking boss monsters: +20%
      • (Unique) All skill levels +1 (except for 5th job and certain skills, only increases up to the skill’s max level)
      • (Unique) All skill levels +2 (except for 5th job and certain skills, only increases up to the skill’s max level)
      • (Legendary) All skill levels +2 (except for 5th job and certain skills, only increases up to the skill’s max level)
      • (Legendary) All skill levels +3 (except for 5th job and certain skills, only increases up to the skill’s max level)
      • (Legendary) Elemental resistance: +10% (based on level 120 or higher equipment)
      • (Legendary) Status resistance +10 (based on level 120 or higher equipment)
    • The following stats’ rates have been increased when using Red Cubes, Black Cubes, Craftsman’s Cubes, or Meister Cubes.
      • (Unique) Damage when attacking boss monsters: +30%
    • The following stats will no longer appear when using Additional Cubes.
      • (Unique) Elemental resistance: +4% (based on level 120 or higher equipment)
      • (Legendary) Elemental resistance: +5% (based on level 120 or higher equipment)
      • (Legendary) All skill levels +2 (except for 5th job and certain skills, only increases up to the skill’s max level)
      • (Legendary) Status resistance +5 (based on level 120 or higher equipment)

    Developer Notes:

    In this improvement, less useful stats which were mentioned at the conference such as + all skill levels have been removed. Instead of removing the 20% damage when attacking boss monsters line, we have moved a certain portion of the rate assigned to it to the 30% damage when attacking boss monsters line. As a result, the rate of getting 30% damage when attacking boss monsters has been increased by 2.5%p based on Unique weapons.

    All ‘Decent skill’ lines have been grouped, and a limit has been set that you can only get one ‘Decent skill’ line from the group. These rates do not affect items that you already have, and will only be reflected when items first have potential revealed or when reset through Cubes.

    Quests


    City of Dreams Lacheln’s daily quests’ Symbol rewards have been increased from 4 to 8.

    In the [Daily Quest] Tenebris Investigation quest, the mission to clear the Labyrinth dungeon will no longer appear. You can now replace the assigned mission.

    ※ If you accepted the daily quest before the update and received the mission to clear the Labyrinth dungeon, you can continue normally and the mission will be excluded from the daily quests the next day. ※

    When entering Cross World Party Quests, a message has been added that states arrows, stars, and bullet items are provided.

    UI

    When reviving and deciding whether to use a Buff Freezer or not, the checkbox click area has been changed to a button to reduce confusion.

    [​IMG]

    In Coin Shops, you can now purchase multiple items at once by entering the purchase quantity. However, you can only purchase up to the amount of items that can fit in a single slot.

    [​IMG]

    The profession UI’s size has been changed so that the names of craftable items and the number of items that can be crafted are outputted normally.

In the existing specifications, it was only the number displayed on the client that was higher than the real number of hits, so the actual specifications have not changed.

    You can talk to Manager Fritto in the LIVE Studio to acquire the Special Dance Chemistry skill. When you enter a map with monsters within your level range, it will automatically activate.

    When the skill is active, every time you kill 500 monsters within your level range, the Special Dance Chemistry will begin and for 30 seconds, the Dancing Superstar Pink Bean, Orange Mushroom & Gamma Omega, and Spiegella will appear with a disco ball.

    Each time the disco ball grows and shines, it will attack nearby monsters and you will acquire experience automatically. When this happens, small particles will be created around the ball and fly towards your character.

    The Special Dance Chemistry can occur up to 10 times per day.

    ※ The daily Special Dance Chemistry number will be reset at midnight. ※

    ※ If you change maps while the Special Dance Chemistry is taking place, it will end. ※

    ※ Special Dance Chemistry can only be activated in maps with monsters within your level range. It cannot be activated in maps where Elite Bosses are summoned, where other players’ Reactions are taking place, event maps, or other special maps (Mirror World, story quest maps, etc). ※

    ※ Monsters defeated during Special Dance Chemistry will not count towards the next 500 monsters required to activate Special Dance Chemistry. ※

    ※ The automatic experience acquired when the disco ball grows is affected by experience acquisition increasing effects and death penalty experience acquisition decreasing effects. ※

    ※ You cannot deactivate Special Dance Chemistry when it is taking place. ※
