The last event in KMS ends on the 26th but this test server period ends on the 30th so I’m not sure when this will be coming to the official servers. After this, the next patch will almost certainly be the anniversary update, so I hope they add in more than just some events!

arcane-symbol-arcana

I’m not level 225 yet so I won’t be able to do a tour video, but here’s a slideshow of the maps in the area!

SPOILERS HERE (sort of…)

At the end of the Arcana storyline (and I mean at the very end), they play a short (and I mean short, it’s like 15 seconds) video that basically teases the hell out of us but gives us no information at all.

Thanks to Spadow for the video!

 

upside-down-castle

First of all, the video shows this upside down castle in the sky.

kritias-trueffet

If you guys remember, when Kritias first came out, it was said to be the place that the Black Mage was hiding. However, it never really became anything special. Now, it seems like that will change? The castle in the picture above bears a stark resemblance to the castle in the sky of Kritias, called Trueffet.

black-mage-and-arkarium

Then, the video shows the Black Mage, as well as Arkarium. At the end of Heroes of Maple, Damien ‘killed’ Arkarium but he saved himself by transferring his spirit into his snake. It seems now he’s back in his human form.

Finally, it shows the girl in the Arcana introduction video again, as she steps onto the grass, things seem to grow. And then her hair/eyes turn from black to white and she sends a white bird flying into the sky. This girl is a new character… but who?

aurora-entrance

Some keen people on Southperry realized the symbol in her eyes after they turn white is the one from Aurora, the society that the Black Mage founded in order to study the ultimate light.

She is clearly affiliated with the Black Mage in some way! But that’s all we know about her.

Black Mage

Now, let’s put it all together. The Black Mage is in what looks like Trueffet, the upside down castle in the sky shown in Kritias. He is said to be found at the end of Arcane River. So it’s definitely confirmed that we’ll be getting at least one more new area, if not more.

Arcane River

lacheln

Although this was not mentioned in the patch notes, all Hidden Hunting Grounds (360 AF areas) in Arcane River have been removed. I guess this is because there is now a higher level area than Lacheln available so they want you to go there?

MapleStory Symphony in Budapest – The Cygnus Garden!

The final track of the MapleStory symphony in Budapest has been released, and it is indeed The Cygnus Garden, from Future Ereb. I think this is definitely one of the best ones, it’s my favourite! They also uploaded another video for Start the Adventure without any of the in-game animations if you’re interested in that.

I believe these will be available on other online sources soon and they’re still in the works for a physical version.

The theme song of the boss battle with Empress Cygnus of the Gate to the Future, this graceful yet powerful melody radiates with the elegance and dignity of the Empress. Waltz meets symphony in this lovely re-interpretation of an old classic.

“Start The Adventure” was beloved as MapleStory’s original login screen theme, and its familiar tune is instantly recognizable to all.
Experience it now in grander scale than ever as various orchestral instruments work in unison toward a riveting climax.
This song, brought new life by an 88-member symphony, speaks of the new journey that still awaits us all in the land of MapleStory.

MapleStory Symphony in Budapest – The Queen’s Garden,When the Morning Comes, and Dancing with the Moon!

Three more tracks from the MapleStory Symphony in Budapest have been released. Ereb’s theme, The Queen’s Garden, Ellinia’s theme When the Morning Comes, and Phantom’s ship, Crystal Garden’s theme, Dancing With the Moon.

Only one more track remains! I hope it’s something from the Temple of Time or Cygnus Garden!

This is the main theme of Ereb, the home of Empress Cygnus, and its gentle and warm melody tugs at the heartstrings.
The character of the music transforms into something captivating and different as the song draws to a close.

This song, recognized instantly as the theme song of Ellinia’s map, is especially unique among MapleStory’s soundtrack due to its gradual but triumphant build to an emotional climax. This re-interpretation of the original track makes bold choices while preserving the core of the original melody.
Inspired by classical music, this majestic reimagining takes a very different, but very enjoyable approach than the original melody.

This is the theme song of Crystal Garden, the airship of Maple World’s legendary master-thief Phantom. Preserving the lively feel of the original song, this arrangement stills feels at home in this orchestral re-imagining of the MapleStory soundtrack. The song’s quick yet leisurely rhythm, in the caring hands of a large scale orchestra, revitalizes an old favorite with newfound energy and purpose.

MapleStory Symphony in Budapest – The Raindrop Flower, The Black Heaven, and The Tune of the Azure Light

Three more tracks from the MapleStory Symphony in Budapest have been released! They include Ereb’s theme, The Raindrop Flower, the main theme of the Black Heaven blockbuster, The Black Heaven, and a new track from the upcoming 4th area of Arcane River, Arcana, called The Tune of the Azure Light!

Bringing to mind a flower growing in the rain, this song is filled with a freshness and eager energy that will have you powerless to resist tapping your feet.
This joyful melody possesses unparalleled charm as it pairs a bouncy beat with classical sensibilities in an unexpectedly fitting union. This melody is a triumph of hard work and loving care, given special significance through the work of Byung Ho Kwon, Korea’s renowned and foremost woodwind performer.

This is the main theme of Black Heaven, MapleStory’s first Blockbuster. This subtle yet elegant tune is a unity of strings, woodwinds and brass. It is a moving journey from a place of calm beauty to one of immense gravity and power.

The only completely new song in this album, “The Tune of Azure” sings of the Arcane River’s newest area – The Mystical Forest of Arcana.
The song opens with a mystical melody that brings to mind the image of bashful spirits whizzing about in a dense and magnificent forest.
This wonderful sentiment is conveyed through a unity of woodwinds and strings in the song’s first half, and heavy, imposing sounds towards its end.

Attacker Setting.png

  • You can choose some of your Maple Union characters as attackers and place them on the Battle Map.
  • Each attacker will have a unique Attacker Effect, based on the character’s job and rank.
  • Each attacker will occupy a certain sized area of the battle map based on their rank. The Battle Map has specific squares that give specific occupation effects, and if your attacker’s squares are occupying them, you’ll get those effects.

  • The number of Attackers you can have and the area of the Battle Map that you can occupy will increase based on your Union Rank.

Attacker Effects

My Stored Cards.png

Each character will have a different Attacker Effect based on its job and rank. You will only receive the effects if the character is placed as an active Attacker in the Battle Map. Also, if you have multiple Attackers that are the same class, you will only receive the effect of the highest rank one (e.g. no stacking Zeroes for extra bonus experience).

This is almost exactly the same as how Character Cards used to be. However, there are a few changes such as certain jobs’ effects and the ranks based on level.

A character’s rank is decided as follows:

  • S: level 140~199 (level 180~199 for Zero)

  • SSS: level 250

The different jobs’ Attacker Effects are as follows:

Occupation Effects

battle-map

The main part of the Maple Union UI is the Battle Map. Here you can see a bunch of squares divided into different areas. Each area will give different stats and you can gain these stats by placing an Attacker onto them.

Job Blocks.jpg

Each Attacker you place will have a different shape based on its job (warrior – ‘O’/magician – ‘+’/archer – ‘I’/thief – ‘T’/pirate – ‘Z’) and its card rank (SSS rank – 5 squares, SS rank – 4 squares, S rank – 3 squares, A rank – 2 squares, B rank – 1 square).

rotating-flipping

Then it becomes a sort of puzzle where you place the pieces onto the Battle Map to occupy the spaces with the effects you would like.

You can rotate or flip them in any way but each placed piece must touch a previously placed one (the first piece must touch one of the 4 centre squares). You can also overlap pieces.

Based on the number of squares that you occupy in an area, you’ll receive more of the occupation effect.

swapping-15-square-areas

The occupation effects are divided into two groups: 15 square areas and 40 square areas. The 15 square areas are completely unlocked at the beginning. You can also swap around the position of these 15 square areas any way you would like.

However, none of the 40 square areas will be available and their positions cannot swapped.

Based on your Union Rank, you’ll unlock a 1-square outline around the 15 square areas each time you achieve the following ranks:

  • Novice Union 4
  • Veteran Union 1
  • Veteran Union 3
  • Veteran Union 5
  • Master Union 2

The effects are as follows (clockwise starting from the top left):

  • 15 Square Areas
    • STR: 5 per square (maximum of 75)
    • DEX: 5 per square (maximum of 75)
    • INT: 5 per square (maximum of 75)
    • LUK: 5 per square (maximum of 75)
    • Attack: 1 per square (maximum of 15)
    • Magic Attack: 1 per square (maximum of 15)
    • HP: 250 per square (maximum of 3750)
    • MP: 250 per square (maximum of 3750)
  • 40 Square Areas
    • Status Resistance: 1% per square (maximum of 40%)
    • Bonus Experience: 0.25% per square (maximum of 10%)
    • Critical Rate: 1% per square (maximum of 40%)
    • Boss Damage: 1% per square (maximum of 40%)
    • Stance: 1% per square (maximum of 40%)
    • Buff Duration: 1% per square (maximum of 40%)
    • Defense Ignore: 1% per square (maximum of 40%)
    • Critical Damage: 0.5% per square (maximum of 20%)

Union Ranks

To increase your Union Rank, you must achieve certain Union Levels (total level of all your Maple Union members). Then you must pay a certain number of Union Coins to Ms. Account.

As your Union Rank grows, you’ll be allowed to have more Attackers placed on your Battle Map at one time and you’ll unlock more squares on the Battle Map as well.

  • Novice Union 1: Lv. 500, required coins: none, attackers: 9

Union Raid

  • The Union Raid is a cooperative battle fought by you and your Attacker characters.
  • You can press the button to enter the Union Raid with your characters at any time.
  • When you enter the Union Raid, all your Attackers will be placed on the battlefield and all characters except for the one you are controlling will automatically attack the boss monster in the centre of the map. Each character deals damage based on their Attack Power, which is determined based on their level and Star Force.
    • NOTE: You can control your own character and use all of your skills/move around freely.
  • The giant boss monster will take damage equal to your automatic Attackers’ total Attack Power every second.
    • NOTE: The giant boss monster will not move or attack. However, it will summon Mini Dragons and the Golden Wyvern occasionally which will move around the map. You can kill these to complete daily quests.
    • NOTE: The boss’ HP is split into two gauges. The purple gauge is the Shield HP and can only be damaged by your attackers’ automatic attacks. The green gauge is the Regular HP and can be damaged by you directly. Your Attackers will damage the Regular HP first, and then if it is completely gone, the Shield HP. If there is only Shield HP remaining, you cannot deal any damage directly.

Maple Union.png

Okay I added a ton of details up there so I don’t think I need to do a full out tutorial or anything. But here’s my current Maple Union board, which I’ll go through so you guys can understand how it works.

I have 9/12 Attackers placed right now, around the Battle Map. Since my Maple Union’s rank is Novice Union 4, I have unlocked a 1-square outline of the initial 12×10 rectangle. I have also swapped the positions of the LUK and DEX areas so that it would be closer to the Attack area.

Under the green Join Battle button, you can see two boxes.

  • The left box lists the Attacker Effects (a.k.a. Character Card effects).
    • 80 STR bonus from my Paladin (SS rank)
    • 80 DEX bonus from my Bowmaster (SS rank)
    • 8% bonus experience from my Zero (S rank)
    • etc.
  • The right box lists the Occupation Effects, which are the bonuses you get by occupying certain squares on the board with your Attackers.
    • 50 DEX from occupying 10/15 squares of the DEX area.
    • 10 INT from occupying 2/15 squares of the INT area.
    • 5 LUK from occupying 1/15 squares of the LUK area.
    • 14 attack from occupying 14/15 squares of the attack area.
    • 1% critical rate from occupying 1/40 squares of the critical rate area.

Here’s what it looks like in action!
