Maplestory: The 5th Job Key Features

After nearly a decade wait, Maplestory finally releases its class-wide 5th Job Advancement update.

Come December 15, Nexon will be releasing the “V” update — or as they put it, the game’s “largest update in nearly a decade.”

The title V is in honor of the fact that update will introduce the game’s fifth job advancement. This advancement is class-wide and will empowers players to boost beyond their limitations to reach maximum potential and become a hero of Maple legend with new abilities, equipment and high-end content.

Players will need to be on top of their game too, as there will be whole new areas for high level characters to explore. The update also includes three new areas, each with unique strings, and an all new boss named Lucid: Master of the Nightmares, which Nexon is billing as the “most difficult boss in Maple history”.

Players will also be able to participate in MapleStory’s limited-time training program starting on the 30th of November, which offers numerous advantages:

Mega Burning Project: New characters get a 2-for-1 level boost up to level 130 and helpful gifts along the way.

Breakthrough V Event: Once a character reaches level 140, he will continue to receive prizes for each tenth level reached. The ultimate prize awaits at level 200, allowing players to get the experience they need to get the fifth job.

Nexon has announced that 5th job will start in GMS November 30th!

The 5th Job Key Features that are coming:

  • New power skills for each class
  • Damage cap removed
  • New matrix system to buff and combine skills for more character customization
  • Large new 200+ areas
  • Lower Exp requirement to get to level 200
  • New user interface
