Hello Basil, EDIT: The Lilin's ring is no longer available. Long story short, Nexon opted to end the Quest at 12:00 PM PST, and not immediately after the patch, which led many of use to believe that the patch did not end, and actually ended on June 16th, 2009. This thread has two purposes, the first being confirmation that the Lilin's ring is still obtainable. I have a mule which has still not started the lilin's ring quest. After signing on, today (June 9th, post-SC), the quest is still available above my head, meaning that the ring is still obtainable. Granted, this isn't perfect evidence since I didn't actually get the ring (I made sure to get mine before the SC), but I feel that it's pretty good confirmation that the quest will run until June 16th, 2010 for all you procrastinators. Also, I know a couple people that said they were able to get the ring post SC.

I am not sure if this has already been posted, but I did do a bit of digging around, and found this article. It was posted on June 3, 2010 (6 days ago): http://www.onrpg.com/MMO/Maple-Story/interview/Maple-Story-Interview-Maple-Storys-5th-Anniversary "There are plenty of big additions and changes coming to MapleStory this year. We have new classes, new quests, new items, new maps, and new events, but we haven't forgotten about what is already in Maple World. Some big, long awaited updates are just around the corner ...The story of the legendary heroes reborn does not end with Evan. Maplers will get a chance to see the story unfold further soon, but heroes aren't the only classes in Maple World. Users should expect to see a little more attention paid to the original classes, the Explorers, before any new heroes are revealed ." Interpret that how you like, but it looks like the balance patch will be arriving in GMS after all. As for the actual date of the patch, as well as the actual content...that is up to us to speculate I suppose. EDIT: Thanks to ChuckNastee [quote] ChuckNastee : According to an IGN Press Release: "The four original Explorers - Mage, Thief, Bowman, and Warrior, along with the later added Pirate class - will all be rebalanced and renewed in the scheduled June update.

Well, why would GMS not get balance patch? The more important thing is when. Edit: Upon reading the article more closely, the questioner asks what events are to be expected in the month of May , hardly recent. In addition, all it says is that Balance Patch will come out before Dual Bladers, which has been the trend in other versions.

Someone already posted a thread on the balance patch. Adventurer ring>cruel ring. No point in making an Aran.

But for some, the stats (STR/DEX/INT/LUK) can be quite nice. Anyways, I actually expected a Patch Update Notes/Sneak Peek/Preview/etc. when I entered this thread. 0.0

[/quote] Why does he make you sick? Some people only play when they feel like it's worth it, maybe you make him sick because you made a gunslinger before the balance patch, ever thought about that?

Well, I heard that gunslingers will be better, and maybe its the job for me! I love my sader, and I love my bowman... Are slingers a pretty fun class to play that are a mix between the both? (no funding btw D

[/quote] Not so much, but only making the class for balance patch bandwagoning is just kinda...bleh. That's my opinion at least, you're free to agree or disagree. I'm sure it gets annoying for other people as well.

I'm going to look like a bandwagoner, remaking my F/P here in Demethos so it can have a ring. :/
