Patch notes for v0.75:

Knight of Cygnus
Cygnus, the young Empress of Maple World, has sensed some evil forces lurking around the peaceful Maple towns. Seems like the Dark Magician, who previously failed to destroy Maple World, has returned to wreck chaos across the land! Hence, Empress Cygnus is now recruiting brave adventurers to become her Knights of Cygnus whose duty will be to fight off the Dark Magician and his wicked followers. Will you be the heroic Mapler to save the day?

Any brave adventurer is welcomed to join the Knight of Cygnus, so long as he or she fulfils one requirement: Only existing characters that are at least level 20 are able to create a new character to join the Knights of Cygnus. This new character, specifically created to join the Knight of Cygnus, will be linked to your main character through the Cygnus special power of the spirits. The link will enable your characters to support each other while leveling up.

Game Client Patch v0.72 (v0.73) – MapleStory Episode 2 Launched! Part I

Finally it is here, MaplerStory Episode 2!!!

What so great about Episode 2?
It is still the same MapleStory as before but add in new in-game features and perhaps improved service quality of Asiasoft.

However this patch is the greatest patch ever happened in MapleSEA. Many new fetures are out in the same time. Another point is we are almost at the front line which receives the latest changes from KMS.

Bowmaster Couple vs Scarlion Boss

Another Scarlion Boss video from me. This is another great achievement for myself. It is not so easy but yet not so difficult. Before go into detail, let’s watch the video first.

Note: Please watch in HD version for best quality.

Yes, since my last video, I have started to use intro for my video to make it better and I will continue to use it in the future.

The battle is lasted one hour. I did solo Scarlion Boss before but I was not frapping any video of it. For your information, this video is not the first time we made it. We have made it few times successful. So this video can be a good guide for Bowmaster or even any other job who wanna try to solo the Boss. We DO NOT use any HB mule or HP increase ticket, it is all based on our very own HP.

It is not easy but not difficult as well. First and second form is very much easy. The only obstacle appeared in first and second form is the continuous Defense Up of the Boss, cause us to spend more time on it. There is no other special thing to concern about in these forms.

Third form, 150m HP, 50,000 damage to Knock-back, various skills. This is where we took our cautious most. Due to the huge KB damage, we have to be careful about the movement of Scarlion Boss. And try not to make any silly mistake as it will cost us a high price which is die and fail to complete the battle. Try to keep a distance between yourself and the boss. Continue killing and do not let it stop. Also must act fast to whatever situation comes out. For range attacker, do not stay so close as it is not benefitial to us. As you can see in the video, too near the boss you will get slapped and get Skull Effect (reverse direction). There are platforms at both end of map, fully use it as a tool or safe spot for third form.

Basically that is all technique and cautious things. So Good Luck and try it yourself. :)

Self-Made Promotional Video MapleStory Episode 2

Since last patch 0.70, there are many hints and clues about MapleStory Episode 2 is going to launch soon. Another new era is coming to MapleSEA since 4th Job Advancement & Pirate Job.

MapleStory Episode 2 flash in the login page of MapleStory represent the next patch is going to be the time of new era. Furthermore there are changes have been made in MapleSEA website; new Pink Been flash indicates the countdown of Time Temple; Asiasoft GameFest (ASGF) 2009 has been announced and promoted through many methods; Asiasoft is telling everyone that they are going to bring changes & new era to MapleStory.

From Facebook of MapleSEA, Time Temple is coming for sure. And Knights of Cygnus picture is spotted and it is said that to be announced in ASGF 2009. ASGF 2009 is on 22nd – 24th May 2009, Suntec City, Singapore.

Regeneration, a method that most business organization used to regenerate & refresh the brand name or products of the company, so that it has a new look to the public and prevent it to decline (Product Life-Cycle).

No matter what is it, I bet most maplers concern is how is the future of MapleStory in SEA. Will the Episode 2 move MapleSEA to a better future for maplers? Or vice versa? No one will know what is waiting us in the future. So let’s just wait & see & hope for better tommorow. :D
