The *red* orbs will stack over the blue ones (so you will only see the red ones). Rush can also charge orbs, and 2 at a time. However as for Hero’s Sword although being a 2 hitter, only can charge once (but 60% chance to get 2 still, of course. But you won’t get 3 nor 4).

Max Level 30: 25MP, 260% attack power, up to 3 targets.

Comment: A new attack skill for the Hero class. It first forces a upper swing motion, followed by a long ranged downward slash. It hits up to 3 monsters and is quite powerful (supposedly). It’s also pretty fast (almost as fast as a PS+FA). Sword of Hero however only registers as one hit for charging the combo counter (you can still get 2 orbs at once, but not 3 and not 4).

Comment: A single target, forced stab attack with a brand new animation (unique for each charge). Spirit does not activate final attack, and nor does it discharge your element.

picture

picture (no charge version)

old name(s): Dark Soul

Type: Summon

Description: Summon the Beholder (Dark Soul).

Max Level 10: 30 MP, 20 minutes lasting duration.

In one of the videos, we get to see +50 defense, +15 accuracy, perhaps +15 weapon attack as well. The Dark Soul will randomly give out buffs over random time intervals (according to keunwp, the delay between the casting times can range from 10-30 seconds) . Note that the weapon attack buff does not stack with Dragon Knight’s Dragon Blood.

picture

Max Level 30: 45 MP, 250 seconds duration, 60% success rate, 200% effect

*** Arch Mage [Fire / Poison] /K:아크메이지 /J:アークメイジ [火 / 毒] ***

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

PATH: Magician > Wizard [F/P] > Mage [F/P] > Arch Mage [F/P]

Arch Mage [F/P]: Fire Demon /K: /J:

old name(s): Flame

Type: Active

Description: Engulf the enemies with a pillar of fire: they will be constantly damaged by the heat and become weak to Ice elemental attacks.

Max Level 30: 34 MP, 150 magic power, 15 seconds burn duration, 60% mastery, up to 6 targets.

Comment: Apparently the monster under the flamed state will be weak to ice. The latest patch made this skill into a mob attack; it’s the first time ever that Mages are getting an Avenger-like skill (long ranged mob attack that pierces through targets).

picture

Arch Mage [F/P]: Elquines /K: /J:

old name(s): El Queenath

Type: Summon

Description: For a period of time, summon El Queenath to assist you. It can hit up to 3 targets.

Max Level 30: 100 MP, 160 seconds lasting duration, 270 magic power

Comment: El Queenath is a golem powered with the ice element. It has a basic ice attack that hits multiple enemies. El Queenath will follow your character if you try to move far away or go on ladders. Since patch 1.2.71, Elquiness attacks will freeze its targets.

picture

picture

Arch Mage [F/P]: Paralyze /K: /J:

old name(s): Medusa Eyes

Type: Active

Description: Attack with the magic eyes of Medusa, petrifying enemies into stone.

Max Level 30: 25 MP, 200 magic power, 60% mastery, 15 second petrified duration.

Comment: Looks like a single target attack from the videos… It’s another way to “freeze” monsters and with a longer duration (including Ice type monsters). Previously available for both Arch Mages, now exclusive to the Fire/Poison side. It should be noted that Paralyze’s damage is poison elemental.

picture

picture

Arch Mage [F/P]: Meteo /K: /J:

old name(s): Volcano

Type: Active

Description: Cast volcanic meteor rocks to destroy the battlefield.

Max Level 30: 3500 MP, 570 magic power.

Comment: Take note of the MP usage, this skill isn’t meant to be used without Unlimited Mana. Volcano can almost attack the full screen and is very powerful. It does however have a little bit of delay. Volcano works with Magic Amplification as well as Magic Booster, although your MP cost does not increase like other skills affected by Amplification (unsure if the MP cost is affected now).

Max Level 30: 34 MP, 150 magic power, 15 seconds duration, 60% mastery, up to 6 targets.

picture

Arch Mage [I/L]: Efreet /K:이프리트 /J:イフリート

Type: Summon

Description: For a period of time, summon a Efreet to assist you. It can hit up to 3 targets.

Max Level 30: 100 MP, 160 seconds lasting duration, 270 magic power

old name(s): Spark

Type: Active

Description: A fast, ranged pinpoint lightning magic attack that hits one target at first… The enemies relatively close to the target will also get damaged afterwards.

Type: Party

Description: For a period of time, status abnormality attacks will be nullified to all party members.

Cooldown time: 2 minutes.

Max Level 30: 69 MP, 40 seconds duration.

Comment: This is a natural dispel ability, lasting for however only 40 seconds with a 10 minute countdown…

picture

Bishop: Angel Ray /K: /J:

old name(s): Holy Strike

Type: Active

Description: Shoot a projectile with holy power.

[b]Max Level 30: 240 magic power, 60% mastery

Comment: Looks like another version of Holy Arrow (small range, holy base, single target, low damage). Don’t expect much from this skill. It is also not very fast.

picture

picture

Bishop: Bahamut /K: /J:

old name(s): Holy Dragon

Type: Summon

Description: For a period of time, summon the Holy Dragon to assist you. Holy Dragon hits up to 3 targets.

Requires Priest’s LV 30(MAX) Dragon Summon.

Max Level 30: 160 MP,160 seconds lasting duration, 230 magic power.

Comment: A giant red dragon summon that does (high) Holy Damage, attack speed is about same as the Priest Dragon Summon. It however does not only hover around you; it will try to attack mobs across platforms (vertically or horizontally) by its own. It will continue to attack even when you are on the ladder.

picture

picture

picture

Bishop: Genesis /K: /J:

old name(s): Last Judgement

Type: Active

Description: Summon rays of holy light to destroy the battlefield.

Max Level 30: 3500 MP, 670 magic power, up to 15 targets.

Comment: The Bishop’s equivalent of Volcano/Ice Field. Remember bishops don’t have Magic Amplifcation from 3rd job, unlike the Arch Mages. Judgement is a full screen holy attack, but it might not have the same radius as Volcano/Ice Field.

picture

picture

picture

Bishop: Resurrection /K:리저렉션 /J:リザレクション

Type: Active

Description: Revive dead party members using holy magic. Cooldown timer decreases with higher skill level.

Max Level 10: 40 MP, Cooldown time: 30 minutes.

picture

*** Archer Class /K:궁수 /J:弓使い***

Sharp Eyes /K: /J:

old name(s): Critical Buff, Critical Hope

Type: Party

Description: Give party members the ability to find weakness points of monsters: making it possible to achieve critical damage.

Max Level 30: 45 MP, 300 seconds duration, 15% rate, 40% additional damage.

Comment: When given to archers and hermits, the % of activating criticals stacks with what they originally have (for example hermits will have a 50% + 15% = 65% rate of criticals with this buff). The 40% is a 1.4 multiplier (read about how criticals work in MS by doing some research) and not just a +40% damage. Evidence are from various videos.. Note that when an archer hits a critical (55% rate), the total damage is (original damage) + (100% + 1.4 x 100%) = original damage + 240%; that is, the critical bonus becomes +240% (Special thanks to ubernub for the calculation / observation work). This makes Critical Buff favoring archers and hermits the most. As for other jobs, they will only receive the 1.4 multiplier effect 15% of the time.

picture

picture

Dragon Pulse /K: /J:ドラゴンパルス

Type: Active

Description: Shoot an arrow with the soul of a dragon: your targets will be knockback’ed from the big power.

Max Level 30: 36 MP, 100% attack power, up to 6 targets.

Comment: Dragon Pulse is now a long ranged Power Knockback like skill with no minimum range. It has a 100% rate of pushing the mobs far away. It also has a very short delay so this skill almost completely covers the archers’ minimum range weakness. When used correctly in combination with Puppet (for example, use Dragon Pulse on the incoming mobs and then placing the Puppet behind yourself), they make an almost invincible combo.

*** Bow Master /K:보우 마스터 /J:ボウマスター ***

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

PATH: Archer > Hunter > Ranger > Bow Master

Bow Master: Bow Expertness /K:활의 달인 /J:ボウエキスパート

Type: Passive

Description: A second level passive mastery for archers, raises minimum damage and attack power (only works with bow weapons).

Requires Hunter’s LV 20(MAX) Bow Mastery.

Max Level 30: 90% mastery, +10 weapon attack

Comment: Just like your old mastery, this skill makes all shots much more stable than ever. Note that archers have a 55% chance of activating criticals with critical buff, this skill makes the 1.4 multiplier even more meaningful than what it already is.

Bow Master: Storm of Arrows / Hurricane /K: /J:ハリケーン

Type: Active

Description: Discharging arrows at the speed of the storms. Hurricane will stay active and continously shooting as long as the command is held.

Max Level 30: 9 MP, 100% attack power

Comment: Arguably the fastest skill in Maple Story so far. Hurricane works with Critical Shot and Critical Hope. Note that Hurricane has a slight start up acceleration time when you begin shooting. There was a patch that made it so that you cannot use pots while using Hurricane.

[size=1]old name(s): Intensify[/s]

Type: Active

Description: For a period of time, raise your attack power & lessen the consumption of mana.

Cooldown time: 6 minutes.

Max Level 30: 40 MP, +26 weapon attack, mana consumption -50%, 180 seconds duration.

*** Rogue Class /K:도적 /J:盗賊 ***

Fake /K: /J:

old name(s): Flexible Body, Inspiration

Type: Passive

Description: Ability to forsee enemy movements and evade with quick reflexes.

Max Level 30: 30% chance to completely avoid all enemy attacks.

Comment: Flexible Body’s ability to dodge is calculated separately from your base avoid stats. When Flexible Body kicks in, your character will flash in white and the “MISS” label won’t appear. From the latest patch it looks like your character will automatically “smile” (F2 expression) when Flexible Body got you the “MISS”.

Showdown /K: /J:

old name(s): Challenge

Type: Active

Description: Challenge the enemy: the monster’s defenses will rise, but so do its EXP & droprate.

Max Level 30: 40 MP, 40% effect (100% success rate)

Comment: Challenge is a single target, mid range Disorder like skill. Yes they will give 40% more EXP and droprate upon being challenged. Probably useful for finding drops from low spawn monsters. But don’t expect to use this inside a mob.

Ninja Ambush /K: /J:アンバッシュ

old name(s): Ambush

Type: Active

Description: For a period of time, ambush the enemy by laying traps. Amush works on up to 6 targets.

Max Level 30: 43MP, 100% attack power, 12 seconds trap duration, 150% range

Comment: You set a “trap” by casting Ambush inside a mob.. At least it looks like this way. Ninjas will come out and constantly attack the monsters being ambushed for a period of time. The monsters being ambushed are 100% free to move and attack however. Ambush dosen’t work with critical apparently. Since patch 1.2.72T, Ambush deals around 2500 damage every second.

Venom /K:베놈 /J: ベノム

old name(s): Enchant Venom

available in 2 versions: claw, dagger

Type: Passive

Description: Enchant your weapon with poison venom: making the deadly venom poisoning possible from your attacks

Max Level 30: magic power, 4 seconds poison duration, 30% success rate, 60% attack power

Comment: Now every one of your attacks (for example, savage blow, lucky7, etc) can poison the enemy! From the videos it looks extremely powerful, doing very high poison damage over very short time intervals. Some people mention that monsters can be poisoned up to 3 times.. Enchant Venom start up doing a basic damage, then as time passes by this damage will repeat about every second. This starting basic damage is quite random, but the damage dosen’t change after the first time. Night Lord’s “punching” claw can also cause venom poisoning.

*** Night Road /K:나이트로드 /J:ナイトロード ***

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

PATH: Rogue > Assasin > Hermit > Night Road

Night Road: Spirit Javelin /K:자벨린 /J:ャベリン

old name(s): Soul Javelin

Type: Active

Description: Consuming only 200 stars, for a period of time you will have unlimited use of throwing stars from the deck of stars that you casted Soul Javelin with.

Max Level 30: 25 MP, 120 seconds duration.

Comment: When you activate Soul Javelin, 200 stars will be consumed from your current deck. During this time period with the buff activated, you will not consume stars when using star throwing skills (unlimited star usage). A clever way of extending the Night Roads’ inventory in reality. Is this skill worth it? Look at Triple Throw below..

Night Road: Triple Throw /K:트리플 스로우 /J:トリプルスロー

Type: Active

Description: Throw 3 shurikens at once against one enemy.

Max Level 30: 20 MP, 150% attack power

Comment: Triple Throw looks exactly like Lucky 7, but you throw 3 shots instead of 2. Triple Throw can be used with shadow partner to make 6 hits per throw. It is not known whether or not if it uses the L7 formula or the claw/star formula.

Night Road: Ninja Storm /K: /J:

old name(s): Tornado

Type: Active

Description: Call a companion to perform a whirlwind spin, causing nearby targets to be tossed away.

Max Level 10: 16MP, 150% attack power, 60% success rate, 150 distance.

Comment: A semi melee skill for the Night Road class. Tornado does have a probability rate of success in tossing mobs away. It seems also that enemies maybe tossed around at random directions… they are either tossed away or dragged over. The affected targets will also be stunned instantly upon being tossed. Since patch 1.2.71, Ninja Storm’s knockback range will be determined by skill level.

*** Shadower /K:섀도어 /J:シャドウ ***

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

PATH: Rogue > Bandit > Chief Bandit > Shadower

Shadower: Assasinate /K: /J:アサシネイト

Type: Active

Description: After coming in close under Dark-Sight, assasinate the enemy by a surprise attack: damaging the vital points of the monster 3 times continuously. The final attack, which comes out in a given probability, has a certain chance of giving death wound. Longer Dark-Sight will make the damage bigger.

Max Level 30: 40 MP, 120% attack power, charge up to 18 seconds, 250% critical damage, 90% critical success rate.

Comment: In order to use Assasintate, you must activate Dark Sight. Assasinate hits 3 times, then followed by a finisher that looks like an assaulter. The longer you stay in Dark Sight (up to 18 seconds for maxed level), the higher the Assasinate damage. You are not suppose to “uncloak” before using assasinate, your character will automatically come out of Dark Sight and perfrom the attack.

Shadower: Smoke Bomb /K:연막탄 /J:スモーク

Type: Active

Description: Release a mist of Smoke to make enemies unable to see you, making it easy to avoid enemy attacks.

Party members including yourself inside the mist cannot be hit.

Cooldown time: 10 minutes.

Max Level 30: 45 MP, 60 seconds duration, 200% range.

Comment: Make a smoke bomb like a ninja, a mist will spread and, while you (or other players perhaps) are inside this mist monsters will not be able to hit you (and party members). According to the description Smoke Bomb has a 10 minute cooldown time, but the mist will stay for 60 seconds (so in the 1/10 minutes you will be invulerable to attacks). This can come in extremely useful in map split partying or bosses. If you have two or more bandits, they may alternate mists to protect themselves. In one of the videos it looks like you can cast Smoke Bomb before the cooldown timer, not sure the reason for this… Could be a glitch or something intetional or just the description was wrong.

Shadower: Boomerang Step /K: /J:

old name(s): Keen Dagger

Type: Active

Description: Slice through the enemies in a line, cutting them twice before they can react.

Max Level 30: 26 MP, 500% attack power, up to 4 targets, 90% stun rate

Comment: Works like a double assaulter, going pass the enemy once and coming back to the original position..except it does massive damage hitting multiple targets. You are also untouchable while using this skill, unlike assaulter. You cannot use this skill to teleport to other platforms although you may still hit the monsters on other platforms.
