Another patch has come to Tespia, this time with some slight skill changes, new UI (!) and more changes to professions as well as to the mastery book and skill book systems~

I can’t access Tespia at the moment so I will have to use images from Insoya, and they are lacking…

Maple Island quests have been reorganized! The quests will be divided into two parts, the beginner’s guide and the Adventurer storyline. If you wish, you can skip the guide, but you must do the storyline quests. They also updated the NPCs and artwork! I love it~

Here’s a video, thanks to Maplefreak26.

Oh yeah, they expanded on the Adventurer story line, up to level 80 or 90 (I can’t remember). I think its a great idea to keep it going, hopefully it even stretches into 4th job!

And I think it’s related to the Adventurer story line, but guess who’s back~?

Maple Auction (which was made available for use a couple of patches ago but I totally missed that) has received some changes. You will now correctly receive notifications about your auctions. In addition, when putting a Use/Etc./Cash item up for sale, you will be able to see the average price for the item. An auto-complete feature has been added into the quick search so you can find the items you are looking for.

The stat information window has been renewed! Some stats have been moved around based on their importance and you can now see your total boss damage and defense ignore on it as well~

The equipment window has also been renewed! It is now seperated into different tabs, the first for game items (your regular equipment), Cash items, pet equipment, and Android information. If you are a special job such as Mechanic, Evan, or Angelic Burster, there will also be a tab for your specific equipment.

Likewise, the quest window has been renewed. In the ‘available’ tab you can now search through the quests there and for some, you can even automatically start them through the window! The ‘in progress’ tab has been slightly changed in order to make it easier to find the quest summary, the items you need, and the rewards you will receive. It allows you to automatically complete quests through the window as well.

The ‘party quest’ tab has been renamed to ‘recommended content’ and will now show content that might be good for you to participate in. In addition, the information given for these types of content has become more detailed and easier to read.

In order to use various scrolls and items that enhance your equipment easier, a new item upgrade window has been added! You can open it by pressing the hammer icon at the bottom of the item inventory.

After you open it, your mouse will turn into a hammer and you can choose the equipment you wish to enhance as well as the Use item you wish to use to enhance it. After both the equipment and use item are in the window, you can press the Upgrade button to apply its effects.

The scroll helper Balalio who allowed you to use Legendary Spirit without having the skill has been deleted due to the functionality of the new item upgrading UI.

The profession system has received three new additions! The profession of blacksmithing can now create Cubes, accessory crafting can now create Flames of Reincarnation, and alchemy can now create bags.

Blacksmiths can create two types of cubes, the Artisan’s Cube (which can go up to Unique) and the Master’s Cube (which can go up to Legendary and has a higher chance to raise the rank of your item). Accessory crafters can create the Strong Flame of Reincarnation which has a higher chance of giving high stats and the Eternal Flame of Reincarnation which gives the highest stats possible but has a 1% chance of destroying your item.

You will be able to find Artisan’s Cubes and Strong Flames both through hunting monsters and creating them through professions, but the other two will only be available through production. If you are successful in creating one of the Meister equipment, Master’s Cube or the Eternal Flame of Reincarnation, a message will be broadcasted to the entire world.

Two new types of Extractors have been added. The first, the Cube Extractor can be used to extract Strange Cubes. The second is the Scroll Extractor and can extract any non-Cash Shop scrolls as well as Flames of Reincarnation. The materials that you receive are used in the creation of Cubes, Flames, and Bags. Even if you have not learned Alchemy, you can use Extractors laid down by other users who have.

Now, when you are mining or collecting herbs, you will have a chance to find the rare materials mentioned above.

There were a lot of other changes to professions this patch. First of all, you can now chat while mining or herb collecting. You can also use the profession UI to move directly to Meisterville (unless you are in combat or in certain maps where it is not available).

Some item’s material requirements and fatigue as well as their cooldowns have been adjusted. Essence of Twisted Time (new material introduced last patch for the new Meister items) has had its droprate increased and will now drop from any monsters or bosses level 95 or higher. Speaking of which, last patch the Meister weapons had their images copied from the Scarlet weapons, but now they have received their own designs.

The things sold by the merchant in Meisterville have been adjusted. The experience required to become a Master or Artisan has been adjusted. You can now turn the effects from the Master/Artisan system on and off if you wish. The types of elixirs you can use together has been adjusted.

The types of flowers and veins that appear on maps will now depend on the levels of the monsters there, and with higher levels, higher-grade flowers/veins will appear. New types have been added such as the Secret Vein, Secret Flower, and Secret Legendary Flower. They all drop new items that are required to create the new items added in this patch.

Mounts that require a saddle (such as the Adventurer ones, Cygnus, Aran, Evan, and Rex’s Hyena) will now be changed into ‘skill’ mounts, so they no longer require a saddle or the Monster Rider skill.

Hard Magnus’ drop rate of the Cursed Kaiserium has been increased greatly. The quests that allowed you to turn the Cursed Kaiserium into the Liberated Kaiserium has had its requirement of 150 Cursed Horn’s Aura reduced to 5.



Now, when fighting monsters, they will be more likely to drop equipment that your character can wear.

In the Cash Shop, to eliminate confusion and difficulty in choosing what to buy, all types of Cubes have been deleted. Now, there are only two new Cubes, the Red Cube and the Black Cube.

10 Red Cube Fragments can be traded in for an Advanced Potential Scroll and 20 can get you a Perfect Potential Stamp which gives 100% chance to add a line of potential to an item.

5 Black Cube Fragments gives you an Advanced Enhancement Scroll, 15 gives you a Perfect Potential Stamp, and 30 gets you a Special Additional Potential Stamp which has a 100% chance of adding Additional Potential to an item.

Red Cubes are just regular cubes I believe, they can go up to Legendary. Black Cubes however, when used, will show you the potential before and after and then you can choose which you would like to keep! They also go up to Legendary.

The Maple Mileage system has been added! Now, you will gain Mileage if you complete the following:

Defeat Normal or Chaos Zakum

Defeat Normal or Hard Hilla

Defeat Normal or Chaos Horntail

Defeat Van Leon

Defeat Arkarium

Defeat Normal or Chaos Pink Bean

Defeat Normal or Hard Magnus

Defeat Empress Cygnus

Complete Moon Bunny’s Rice Cake PQ

Complete First Accompaniment PQ

Complete Traces of the Goddess PQ

Complete Ice Knight’s Curse PQ

Complete Forest of Poison Fog PQ

Complete Pirate Davy Jones PQ

Complete Escape PQ

Complete Kenta in Danger PQ

Complete Resurrection of the Hob King PQ

The Mileage you gather will be used in the Cash Shop. When you purchase a Cash item, you can pay up to 30% of the cost with your Mileage instead!

Three new pets have been added, Peachdillo, Lemondillo, and Greendillo!

The mastery book system has been reorganized! There are no longer specific skill mastery books, you must buy universal ones from Bucklerman in Leafre and Henesys. These books when used will allow you to choose one of your skills to increase the master level of (and it includes Maple Warrior!). Dual Blades can buy scrolls from an NPC in their base (DB scrolls will no longer be sold in the Cash Shop).

Due to the removal of Mastery Books, you can now trade them in to any Maple Admin for Mastery Book 20 and Mastery Book 30.

The requirement of skill books for all job skills including Maple Warrior and Hero’s Will has been removed. You will now learn all skills automatically upon advancing.

Certain skills such as thieves’ Fake, Luminous’ Light Shadow Guard, and Paladin’s Shield Mastery all have effects which avoid or Guard against attacks from monsters. Before, if one of these attacks inflicted a status effect, even if you successfully avoided/Guarded the attack, you would still be afflicted with the status, but now, you will correctly avoid/Guard against it as well.

Two new skill quests have been added for Adventurers. The first is at level 10 and is titled Returning to Maple Island. It gives adventurers the Return to Maple beginner skill which as you guessed, lets you teleport to Maple Island.

The second is at level 150 for Captains and is titled A True Captain’s Riding, Battleship Bomber which I assume will give you access to the new skill Battleship Bomber.
