GMS v.267: Wild Hunter Redux, One-Punch Man and a new skill baseline

GMS v.267 launched March 18, 2026. Wild Hunter gained a redesigned partnership with Ashlii, Saitama became a temporary Special World job, and a broad class update changed attack delays, passive effects, burst windows and defensive tools. Nightmare Paradise opened later, on April 2. The dates and limited rewards below describe this historical release.

Nightmare Paradise added a level 280 weekly option

Nightmare Paradise became available April 2 at 00:00 UTC for level 280 characters who had completed “[Arteria] The Battle’s Aftermath” and “[Epic Dungeon] Delver of the Deep.” Selazar in Arteria’s Operations Center started “[Epic Dungeon] Nightmare Paradise.” Story progress belonged to the character, but finishing the story once enabled an account-wide skip on other characters.

The account could clear two Epic Dungeons weekly, with each character limited to one dungeon type per week. Entries and progress reset Thursday at 00:00 UTC. Nightmare Paradise contained seven stages under a one-hour timer. Defeating enemies generated Divine Energy for Tiger Slash (200), Nimbus Cloud (500) and Pull Key (up to 200).

Interactive players could purchase the EXP option, Sol Erda option or both. Story completion awarded the Wakebringer medal. Four achievements covered Choose Your Own Nightmare, The Nightmare Begins, Recurring Nightmare and Neverending Nightmare; Legion Artifact also gained a Nightmare Paradise quest mission.

World Archive rewarded encounters across the account

World Archive opened after March 18 maintenance for level 100 characters, with Zero Act 2 and “[Grand Athenaeum] Visit the Grand Athenaeum” complete. Thales the Librarian offered “[Grand Athenaeum] All the World’s a Page 1,” “[Grand Athenaeum] All the World’s a Page 2” and “[Grand Athenaeum] All the World’s a Page 3.” Completing that sequence unlocked the codex and its lore Appendix.

Maple World was the available region. Arcane River, Grandis and Oort were announced for future updates. Region, Character and Monsters tabs shared account progress. Clicking a character or using Interact/Harvest registered a character entry; additional interactions could reveal hidden information. Defeating a monster registered its entry, while Practice Mode defeats did not count. Each milestone reward was claimable once per account.

Monster Collection expanded its Grandis and Special tabs, added Baekyeon Cube Chair, First Adversary Cube Chair, Baldrix Cube Chair and Jade War Master Cube Chair, and added “[Monster Collection] Toward the Chasm, Toward the Continent.”

Training, potential and Auction House rules changed

Fog Forest Training Grounds removed its entry requirements and limits. Entry reset most cooldowns and filled charging skills, class gauges and Soul Weapon gauges. Exceptions were Combat Orders, Roll of the Dice, Time Leap, The Crossroads of Destiny, Contact Caravan, Decent Sharp Eyes, Decent Hyper Body, Decent Combat Orders, Freud’s Wisdom at five stacks or fewer, and skills in Pet Buff slots.

Entry removed buffs except Use/Cash item effects, toggles, map-persistent summons without cooldowns, Noblesse Guild Skills, Weapon Tempering, Accessory Enhancement, Throne of Masters Chair and Champion’s Renown. Leaving restored the previous cooldown state and reset the filled gauges. A settings button could repeat the cooldown reset and gauge charge while inside.

Potential Stamps were removed. Applying Potential or Bonus Potential now supplied three lines, except equipment with fixed lines. Cubing an existing two-line item upgraded it to three lines. Old stamps exchanged for Power Elixirs according to their success chance. Monster drops, Elite Boss Rare Treasure Chests, exploration boxes, Cube Piece/Violet Cube Fragment exchanges and Legion’s Gold Potential Stamp shop stopped supplying stamps.

The Auction House added a warning for unusually expensive equipment when Combat Power and trading history supported a value assessment. An item without sufficient valuation data did not trigger the guide. Supported categories were level 150 Royal/Eagle Eye/Trixter armor, AbsoLab/Arcane Umbra armor and weapons, Eternal armor, Dawn Boss Set, Berserked, Magic Eyepatch, Commanding Force Earring, Source of Suffering, Dreamy Belt, Endless Terror, selected Boss Accessory Sets and selected Special Skill Rings. Anvil appearances gained a mark; sale quantity followed the selected slot’s stack, and opposite-gender items could be previewed.

Explorer classes changed setup and attack timing

The comparisons below preserve the stated skill levels. Relative delay and range adjustments remain approximate where the patch described them that way; a lower per-hit coefficient alone does not measure total output when attack timing, hit counts, passive effects or cooldowns also changed.
