The classes now are as follows:

Explorers/Adventurers: Warrior, Bowman, Mage, Thief, Pirate

Knights Of Cygnus(6 ap per lvl up, strong early on and get nerfed 4th job skills in 3rd but max lvl of 120 instead of 200): Dawn Warrior(fighter type warrior), Wind Archer(bow using archer), Blaze Wizard(fire element mage), Night Walker(claw thief), Thunder Breaker(knuckle pirate).

Legends: Aran(ice elemental pole arm user with a combo system), Evan(Multi-elemental mage that uses a dragon to attack).

Apparently pretty soon there is a new adventurer coming out called Dual Blade. It is essentially a bandit but instead of a shield it uses a new item, a second blade.

The Aran and Evan class were rather overpowered and last patch there was a balancing patch for adventures. It boosted lots of the skills base attack, decreased cool downs, sped up attacks, added more mobs to some attacks, etc etc. Basically an overall boost of most adventurer classes.


In response to your sum up yes and no. Maple is a good game if you find it enjoyable and have people to talk to. Some servers have a screwed up economy and most hackers are all VIP underground stuff now that pay to use them so everyone else resorts to being a script kiddy and d/c hacks everywhere. Bera is bad for d/c hacking, scania for ksing and economy, khaini doesn't have very many godly items but its not super crowded either. It is worth coming back at least to try and see if you enjoy the changes

Id recommend making an aran as they lvl pretty fast and are an overpowered class. Good luck to you.
