Part 1 : Age of Heroes
- All classes were revamped.
Part 2 : Age of Artisans
- Professions were added.
- Ardentmill is added.

This patch introduces Professions. Only 2 can be chosen from the following: Herbalism, Mining, Smithing, Accessory Crafting, and Alchemy.
Part 3 : Age of Battle
Future Cygnus
- PvP was added.
- New Area: Gate to the Future
- New Major Boss: Cygnus
This patch introduces a PvP system which players can battle against each other. PvP consists of 3 (or 4 in some versions) modes:
Free-for-all: Defeat as many enemies as you can.
Team Battle: Score more points than the opposing team.
Ice Knight: One player becomes the Ice Knight and others have to defeat him within 7 minutes.
Capture the Flag: Capture the opposing team's flag 3 times.
This update also releases a new set of equipments, a new area, and a new boss, for Maplers over Level 160. However, the boss expedition is only for Maplers over Level 170.
