KMST 1.2.046 - New Lv225 Area Arcana
Because OrangeMushroom hasn't translated it yet, I took the liberty to do it.
Update: OrangeMushroom has translated it now.
*Note: This is not a word-for-word translation. I'll also mainly focus on information about Arcana as this is what players will presumably care the most about.
Current as of 2/2/17.
The 4th Area of Arcane River, Arcana, has been released.
- You must be Lv225+, have killed Lucid, and have completed the "Decisive Battle" quest in Lachelein to access the area.
- Easy Lucid has been added and killing her allows you to complete the "Decisive Battle" quest. Her total health is similar to Easy Cygnus, so defeating her shouldn't be a problem. She does not give any rewards though.
- The theme of this area revolves around good spirits (NPCs) vs. bad spirits (monsters).
- The monster level in Arcana range from Lv230~240 and give around 380k~470k EXP.
- Required Star Force in Arcana maps are 280, 320, and 360.
- A new Arcane Symbol, Arcana, has been added.
- No daily quests are available to raise the level of the Arcana symbol as of this test patch.
- No new boss has been added as of this test patch.
Other notable changes:
- Dream Breaker PQ (the Lachelein daily PQ that allows you to farm for the Lachelein symbol, currently unreleased in GMS) has been added to the Maple Guide for quick access.
- Fantastic Theme Park (the Lv120+ area that can be accessed from Ludibrium) has received some additional quests and rewards.
- In Lotus phase 1, the error where using a bind skill would also stop the lasers from rotating has been fixed.
- Beyond Coin shop season 2, Valentine Day, Spiegelman Express Train, Burning Character, and other events have been added.

@piana: I do the cooking, can't trust you with food.
@piana: There, went to the gym and worked it off, cheh.
@piana: I now have tacos, I spoiled myself and got nachos as well.
@piana: I would have to get out to go get them.
@piana: Oh, I was just going down to see you sink to the bottom, I'm going to get some tacos.
@piana: Drown you, then myself in the sea.
@piana: you sicken me
@piana: They better do something with the OST or it can stay CLOSED.
@ecarina: Good observation. If you skip to 12:15 on the part 2 video, you can see that there are six slots for Arcane Symbols now. Arcana is likely not going to be the last of the Arcane River maps.
The lack of a new boss and the fact that it's for 225+ makes it look like this is kind of a middle stage. I'm guessing we'll get a 230+ map later. Maybe then we'll finally be able to fight the black mage, but knowing Nexon they'll probably keep putting that off.
