The best event so far…
December 29, 2010 83 Comments
Since there is a maintenance going on..I think it’s the perfect time to tell you something about what the players of KMS are getting on January 1st.
Nexon gave us a lot of exciting events during Big Bang. One example of this was Hot Time. Logon at a specific time and obtain a package with surprises in it such as a SP reset scroll, items and scrolls.
New events were held when the first Chaos update was released, but this particular event is really great. It’s called 2PM event.
You log on at 2 PM to receive something from Cassandra. Last week there was a 2PM event on Christmas but it failed miserably. Players were supposed to get a cash item, some did and a lot didn’t including me. Nexon came up with a resolution and I got 2 smegas that expire in a few days. Yay.. ~_~
But that’s okay! The last upcoming 2 PM event will be really super. Kudos for Nexon on this one. Why? On New Year’s Day, for one minute, everyone who’s logged into the game before 2:30 PM KST will automatically receive giftbox with the following items: SP reset scroll, Unidentified Love Letter and a capsule that gives you one free level up.
Thank you Nexon. Even Chuck Norris approves of this event. ‘o’
However, if you’re Lv. 200, you will receive a special potential scroll. (100% success rate)
There is something else I want to tell you about the 2PM event on Christmas Day. A week ago, the first Chaos update topped more than 280,000 concurrent users. Guess what happened? On Christmas Day, MapleStory recorded more than 360,000 concurrent users!! Wow~!
I cannot wait for the maintenance to end. >_< I’m going to choose for the Mining and Jewel Crafting profession technique. Jewel Crafting because I can craft this sexy ring (see image above). It’s called Angelic Ring. It adds +1 STR, DEX, INT and LUK. It comes with a really cute effect and with a buff. The buff gives you +5 weapon attack/magic forever unless you unequip the ring.
There is also a Dark Angelic Ring. This ring gives the same effect as the Angelic Ring, the only difference is that this one gives you +10 weapon attack/magic instead of 5 and adds +6 STR, DEX, INT and LUK. You can only wear one Dark Angelic Ring.
Must. Get. Ring.
how do u get the dark one?
You craft it.
Is there a huge difference between crafting the dark one and crafting the normal one?
Probably a few key differences. Like a dark stone instead of light stone or something like that.
But I can’t say for sure considering I’m not playing KMST.
Do these rings get slots too? :D
We just had two Hot Time events as well. lol Hopefully another one during New Years.
omg….i want ring
The more KMS names their events, the more I think they are referring to K-Pop. (2AM -> Ballad Boy Group; Hot Time -> Song name from SM THE BALLAD, Big Bang -> Another Boy Band)
Haha it’s probably a coincidence though…
Thanks Spadow for the updates! They’re really interesting to read and us readers really appreciate the dedication you put into this blog. :)
Its 2PM f u
There’s a 2AM group too, stupid.
2AM & 2PM are both under JYP.
Cool, I hope they break their previous concurrent user record with this hot time event. You’re going to be doing a full coverag of proffessions tomorrow (or todays o.o) right? It really looks cool :D
One free level up? Some level 199’s are gonna be happy ;)
lol I have the same reaction as Pat. All the names of the events and patches like Hot Time, Big Bang, 2PM, are all Kpop bands or songs :P hahaha. I’m loving this :) (Yeah I’m a huge kpop fan ^^) So many things are happening in KMS @_@ Can’t wait for it to come out in GMS :) Sounds really cool.
Perhaps the Cygnus won’t be deemed impossible with these godly accessories Nexon is releasing.
Wowwwwwww!!!! I’m loggin in tomorrow. No doubt. Aaaand. Maybe I’ll do jewel crafting as well… That RING!! MUST GET!!
Hey Spadow, what level can you get that purple scroll? And what is it?
Only Lv. 200 players can get the potential scroll. It has a success rate of 100%.
Oh okay! Thx for answering :D
You say you can only wear one Dark Angelic Ring, but not for Angelic Rings. Does this mean they stack?
Can you wear the Dark and Angelic rings at the same time?
I have no idea, but I’m definitely getting both. When I have them both then I can tell you.
Cool, thanks. :D
Finally a great ring with animation! My wedding ring has +1 to all stats and +5 speed but no animation. I want the ring!
A 100% potential scroll sounds nice too. Last time I tried, it destroyed both of my black snowshoes. Lucky my gf bought me 1 more. ^^
… What is it with Nexon and giving out free levels? It kind of kills the game…
The Levelup item looks surprisingly much like the exp injection we GMSers can get right now for leveling a resistance.. Does that mean using those will get us levelups?
We already have those level ups, I accidentally tested them out around 1x T_T
Hey Spadow, unrelated question but when Van Leon Castle came out, how fast would levels 120-170 be?
Oh yeah, did anybody defeat PAN LEON!!
Spadow do you know if at later levels you can get other Professions other than the two you can get at level 30?
Oh wow, the ring… Dang…
The effect looks nice too. Might be annoying to see everyone with it in the long run, but at least it’s nowhere near as fugly as the effect from the Zombie Army Rings that us GMSers had (of which the effect was thankfully removed after Big Bang).
i thought the zombies wewe cool
its like a non nx user having nx stuff
i want my zombies back, buys zhelm…
Yay new animation!
Dear god I hope that ring stacks with adventurers and big bang.
What does the unidentified love letter do?
You get a random amount of fame upon opening it. I think you may also get this “I’m a Lucky Guy” medal at a low rate too I think?
When you make the ring can you tell us what items you used to make it please? =D Thanks~
Hey SPADOW! Do you play GMS? Plus, I rove rice!
Hey Spadow, those energy charges look rearkably similar to the ones you get form lvling a resistance type charicter when they start in GMS… Do they have the same effect?
KMS players are very lucky
SEA MS are cheapskate.
why? i was in sea ms too and gms now im in kms…
Yea I reckon too. We only just got Dual Blades and the potential system. No Big Bang yet. I stopped playing Dual Blades cuz of the need of @cash (NX).
Hi Spadow , i having some problem with the profession can you teach me how to do the quest and how to gather the materials ? Thanks
someone wanna translate this for me? 자이언트 비약 제작 레시피를 사용하면 제작 에 필요한 재료를 알 수 있습니다.
it says “Recipe for making giant leaps and bounds, you can find the ingredients needed to produce.”
So.. we can only select 2 professions to master? Not all of them?
Just make a char with both herbalism and mining and you get a “supplier”
On the rest of your chars you Can take the crafting proffesions
I just wanted to let you know that i really appreciate all your hard work :D
Since i play in GMS, your posts really help with upcoming events, updates, and game changes. Thanks!
can you please explain the proffesion system
im at a total lost on what to do
U can only Choose 2 profession technique Out of 3?
out of FIVE
is the guy behind u a friend or a stalker spadow? cause he was also in ur “giant potion” video
its an android he made with the blacksmithing technique

…… Does MapleSEA get the ‘sexy’ ring too?
that will have to wait a loooooooong looooooooong time… since asiasoft is too money orientated to release new content only on school holidays to burn the money of students
HEY SOADOW I HAVE A QUESTION FOR YOU, ITHERE A LEVEL REQUIRED OF JEWEL CRAFFTING TO MAKE AN ANGELIC RING ? AND TO MAKE THE DARK RING OYU NEED A HIGHER LVL OR ITS HADER TO MAKE IT? PLEASE ANSWER. NOTE:MY BRO SPREAD SODA ON MY KEYBOARD SO MY BLOC MAYUS GOT LOCKED AND WILL GET FIXED TOMORROW SO THATS WHY WROTE THIS WITH CAPITAL LETTERS, ALSO IM A MEXICAN SO SORRY FOR MY BAD ENGLISH.
WHAT? I CAN’T UNDERSTAND YOU? WHO IS SOADOW? WHO IS HE?
he ment spadow
I wouldn’t blame him, i thought for a second: who the heck is soadow?
uh. that make sense
you?
hey spadow, can u tell us the material for making those ring :P
Spadow, if I may ask, does the ring’s “buffs” stack with other attack buffs?
Yes it does and I know because i play KMST
How hard is it to make these rings?

I remember hearing that your professions add extra stats such as extra hp, mp, dex, etc.
Is this true?
Hey Spadow, can you give me a download link for the Evil Cygnus Garden background?:O I would love to put that as my computer back ground ><
Hey spadow has anyone htought of using arans and combo knockback to continously knockback her so that the others would have time to attack from afar? and he/she should have combo drain active and continously recharge it so that he/she may heal damage being delt. Unless Cygnus ignore knockback and continouly attacks indefinately then this should work. Also Since their is a pot cooltime then the aran would need sufficient mp to last that long and have sufficient pots. If their is anytihng wrong wit my logic reply back. If not… am i the only one that realized this?
Well, combo knockback would rush the aran into the boss. HP drain would not keep up with the huge hp loss, since the cygnus’ damage looks extremeley high. And the move arans have that make the monster be knocked back a lot does not work on bosses.
wait WHAT???? when did they change this????? in GMs it currently works on bosses to my knowledge…
@tacobeard
It has never worked on bosses. I have a 4th job aran, and I notice that 10k damage is the requirement for pap, and sometimes my first swing doesn’t critical and gets lower then that, even with smart knockback, 9999 damage is not enough.
Aw crap. I thought it was today so I got on waiting for half an hour then I found out… >:[
Wow! Awsome rings! I don’t suppose you could tell us about any other rings/ cool things that can be made? Also are the rings made out of jewls we already have, or are there new items that are added for these purposes?
Sorry I zm not spadow but I just wanted to explain one little thing…..
There are only three main professions-alchemy, blacksmith and jewlist
Herbalism and mining are just there for materials…
So if you want to be an alchemist, you HAVE to be a herbalist
No other way to get herbs( also it won’t let you choose anything else if you want alchemist)
And if you want to be a jewlist or blacksmith, you have to be a miner
(won’t let you choose to be anything else either if you want black smith or jewlist)
So u can’t be ajewelist and a blacksmither at the same time right? since u need Mining proffession and that would make 3 proffessions. O.o
And i’d like to know how u craft the different rings, is it like a requirement for better rings on ur skill? Or do u just need the materials to make em?
it helps a lot :)
A free level up? :O
I’m rushing to level 199 right now!
GMS also suffers from players not getting their rewards. I hope that ring arrives here safely!
Whats an android? The thing behind you? Is it like some kind of “pet”? o.O
Oh cool I think making rings and stuff is cool aww a cute effect
RARE CANDY !
IKR? THAT WHAT I WAS THINKING!!!
Happy New Year Spadow , Readers , Maplers , Everyone !
The event was a fail. I got nothing while everybody else got theirs. Wow Nexon…
Hey Spadow, thanks for all of the information you’ve given us. Can you give us any specifics on the items required to make the Angelic Rings?
