No MapleStory hero would be complete without an epic weapon with which to fight off the forces of evil! Now there are changes coming to the MapleStory weapon system that will make your weapon more epic than ever!

Here’s how it works.

Item Rank
Items are now being separated into “ranks” that will help you distinguish between common, less valuable and rarer, more valuable items.
Items will now have a border identifying its rarity:White border: Normal items Blue border: Rare itemsPurple border: Epic itemsYellow border: Unique itemsWhen an item drops from a monster they have a random chance to be Normal, Rare, Epic or Unique. Items ranked rare or above have “hidden potentials.” A “hidden potential” item is shown with a red border.



“Hidden potential” items can be identified by using a magnifying glass available from merchants in major towns.The following magnifying glasses are available:
i. Basic Magnifying Glass – Can identify items up to level 30
ii. Average Magnifying Glass – Can identify items up to level 70
iii. Advanced Magnifying Glass – Can identify items up to levels 120
iv. Premium Magnifying Glass – Can identify all items

Item Potential
Under this new system, some weapons now have hidden potential attributes that are randomly assigned. Normal items have their usual attributes but Rare or better items will randomly be given one to three hidden potential attributes. The higher the rank of the item the better the potential attribute will be.
Unlocking these attributes requires the use of a “Potential Scroll.”
A Normal item’s potential attribute are not visible until a Potential Scroll is used on the item. Use a Potential Scroll on the item to make it “Unidentified” then use a Magnifying Glass to reveal the potential.

All Rare rank and higher items have their potential hidden attributes visible on inspections.




Potential Scrolls can drop from monsters in the world or they can be found by using the Miracle Cube Cash Shop item. Each Miracle Cube used will yield one scroll fragment. Combine five to create a Potential Scroll and 10 to create an Advanced Potential Scroll.

Using the Miracle Cube on an identified will reduce it to an unidentified state. Reusing a Magnifying Glass will reveal a new set of Potential traits.

The “Item Revamp” Equipment Enhancement
Item Revamps are applied to equipment when the upgrade slots are used up.
1. Apply an Equipment Enhancement Scroll or Advanced Equipment Enhancement Scroll. Each successful use will increase the item’s stats!
2. The success rate of the scroll will decrease as the number of enhancements increases.
3. Should the enhancement fail, the item will be destroyed.
The number of yellow stars above an item’s name shows the number of successful enhancements the item has received. One star means the item now belongs to the Excellent Class and the item name will be in red in the description. Three stars mean Special Class and the item name will show in green.

Cause it looks like the advanced scroll is pretty much a free 3 star item.

Also, I don't get it, when you use one of these scrolls does it disappear or does it have unlimited uses?

ShiKage Wrote:The scrolls only come from Chaos Horntail and Chaos Zakum. That in itself should say how rare they may be. lol

When you use a scroll, it disappears, as any other scroll would. As each scroll succeeds, the next scroll has a higher chance of failure. If your scroll fails AT ALL, your item goes boom.
