You’re invited to a new chapter in the Althea Saga.
A new update is currently in development for MapleStory and set to be released this summer. One of the new content is the introduction of new growth systems to make the characters even more powerful.
It all starts with the addition of a new HEXA Common Node known as Sol Hecate. This is a responsive summoning skill that reacts to the skills of the characters and provides assistance that's appropriate to the situation. Players can obtain different additional effects by leveling up the node. This way, everyone can watch their character become stronger with Sol Hecate.
The next is the 2nd Transcendence for Destiny weapons being unlocked. There's also the Astra secondary weapon that's been infused with the power of the ancient god Erion.
Althea Saga Story
The update is set to add a new chapter to the story of the Althea Saga. For a lot of players, they've mainly seen the exploits of Althea through videos. This time, they can do the same but with the story and gameplay.
In addition to the intriguing story of Inspector Althea that's set in Magatia, players can also consistently obtain Sol Erda Fragments and different other rewards by taking on the role of Althea in a special dungeon. This exciting new story combines a completely new storytelling method with fresh content and unfolds across two updates.
New Area
There's also a new area being added as part of the update. Geardock is located within a lightning-swept desert and serves as the secret workshop of the ancient god, Gob. It's also the frontline of Grandis where the ruler of the desert Jupiter awaits. To enter this new area, characters need to be at least Lv. 295 and have completed the Tallahart story.
The summer update also introduces a new job and new bosses which you can read more about here. In addition to new content, the upcoming update also brings with it major enhancements and major quality-of-life improvements. Learn more about it here.
