V Matrix

The V Matrix is an update that was released on December 15th 2016 that remodeled the game in greater scale than previous updates. Introducing a 5th Job Advancement when the player reaches level 200, it adds a new set of skills to every class. The creation of higher-leveled training areas in the Arcane River introduced

new monsters al well, allowing higher-level players to have some fun too. The update revolutionized the game as it was known before, and its mascot Lucid, a brand new boss stronger than any other before combines perfectly with the bashing style of this update, as the damage capacity was eliminated, which allowed the game to expand to greater horizons of fun gameplay and interaction between players.

5th Job Advancement
The 5th Job Advancement adds an extra step to every character. Obtainable whe the player reaches level 200. The player can receive the quest to obtain the advancement from Record Keeper, who resides deep inside the Temple of Time, which makes completing the Temple of Time/Pink Bean questline necessary to receive the advancement. The player will have the honor to meet the three Goddesses from Maple World, Tynerum and Grandis and receive a quest from them. Upon completing all three quests the player will receive an item from each of them and then  must report to the Record Keeper with the items and receive the advancement.

Damage Cap. Removal
You heard it right, after almost 12 years since Maplestory was created it eliminated its traditional damage capacity (2000000-2000000 range, 50000000-50000000 damage) to extend to the infinity (damage). Funny fact: the new damage cap. is 10 billion, but the range doesn't have a limit.

New Training Areas
The Arcane River comes in with new level 210-230 training areas, as well as a new boss at the end of it. The closed until now Gate to the Present opens to reveal new areas to explore: the Vanishing Journey, only reachable after the 5th job advancement, with new exciting questlines and high-level monsters. Chu Chu Island is a friendly town in your journey through the Arcane River. In here, the player will face new monsters while helping the townsfolk. Finally, the player will arrive to the final area: Lachelein, the Dreaming City, a city created by Lucid to be the home of happy dreams and neverending joy. The player will again have to fight monsters and completing quests that will reveal little by little the past of Lucid, the final boss and an old friend of Mercedes, who has the power to control dreams.
