If you have played maplestory for more than 5years.. you might know the story of Balrog,, Now 2 story
Hah. I knew that the Black Magician would have been a boss for sure. Now waiting to know how it will look like and how strong it will be.
Also, the BGM better be the most epic one in MapleStory.

Pink Bean is supposed to be the ultimate boss. Maybe the interviewed member of Nexon gave a dumb reason, but it's still just. Nerfing Pink Bean in any way would make him farmable, and that's not the intent for this boss. We're not supposed to go in there with a really good chance of winning. We're supposed to go in as warriors, ready to give it everything we've got and maybe, just maybe, we'll make it through. If not today, we regroup and grow stronger and challenge him again later. When the power creep is as heavy as it has been in maple recently, nerfing pink bean would turn him into another Zakum within only months, and that has never been the intent. As a matter of fact, I believe that if we ever get to the point naturally where people are farming PB, Nexon will toss something new into the mix just to raise the difficulty level again.
It's always going to be a fight to the death. Accept it.
BombsAway Wrote:The Black Magician doesn't necessarily need to be more difficult. Pink Bean is an optional TRY-AND-DIE boss. The Black Magician could be crazy hard but with no time limit and so forth, he could be defeatable for most. Most games have an ULTIMATE BOSS that has nothing to do with the main story, and as far as I'm concerned, Pink Bean is that. Just getting to the thing has you jumping through hoops, and almost all ultimate bosses have that. I think the only questionable choice of Nexon's was releasing it so early. But even then, it allows people to refine their skills and will probably make the battle with the Black Magician a little more bearable.
To me, the Black Magician is obviously going to be the ultimate boss. Maybe he won't have a time limit (which I doubt), but he's still going to be the final boss, which ends the game's storyline.
It looks pretty obvious to me that, if they made such a cute being like Pink Bean so powerful, they did it purposely, to make us understand that, if such a cute being is so powerful, then the Black Magician, who's a monstrous being, will probably be a lot more powerful than it. Which means an even more "almost-impossible-to-defeat" boss, the final one.
That's what I'm thinking the Black Magician will be. An even more epic fight against death. Hopefully my theories will be right.
