Now, I haven't played maplestory in a while, so whatever I'm saying is based off of information from other threads and various online sources. The MapleStory once known to us We used to play in a maplestory where each class had its pros and cons. There were advent of 'pseudo'-classes in hopes of getting a notch better than the rest of the classes. For example, the dexless sin. These group of assassins, outran most of the other players in the game, but still it didn't affect too much. To balance this, other pseudo classes came, better normal stat items came, et al. Then, the 5th job was made...the pirate job. This job was made in order to add a new level of gameplay into the already developed system of 4 classes. It wasn't a threat to the pre existing classes, as Pirates didn't outplay all the other classes. The knights of Cygnus As we all know, Nexon (or Wizet, the Japanese/Korean counterpart) has come up with the idea of 5 sub classes for each class. These classes can only go to level 120 YET they have the power which is comparable to that of level 14xs in a normal adventurer player. It's quite obvious that once the KoC jobs are released, the conventional standard 5 class gameplay will be boycotted by most maplestory players because it's quite obvious that KoC is more 'diverse','cool','awesometastic','entertaining',etc. Soon only KoC players will be seen all over GMS and barely any of the old players will remain.... Even if everything comes back to normal after like 6 months, it will still be 6 months of utter destruction... -PQs will be filled with KoC, and it's kind of obvious that the KoC players won't choose normal players (KoC have +14 levels advantage over the rest) -Training areas will be filled by them -FM will be spammed with all KoC crap -More Smegas with 'OMG I BECMZ LVL 40 KOC!' -You know the drill Goodbye maplestory post August 1st

I Agree. KoC will be over rated. Except the thief and pirate KoC classes are weak.

That's not entirely true but it will attract a lot of players.

First time I've heard someone say that a level 120 Cygnus Knight will be as powerful as a level 200 Adventurer.

Really cuz KMS is fine with KoC. So why shouldn't we?

The only reason CK's will be a problem is because of all the over-funded people pumping of money into them. If the average, moderatly wealthy to low, were the main ones playing them, then there would be no problem. Also, I think CK's appeal more to current/ex players. New people will still most likely go through their "adventurer" before either finding about about CK's or deciding to play them.

It'll only take till level 20 for them to find out about this 'cool' new class. And level 20 takes like a week at the most for the illiterate
