    Hi Deity, They changed the name from Automata to Xenon because it sounds cooler and futuristic. This reminds me of Intel Xenon Processor used in their Supercomputer.

  2. Deity

    Ayumilove, people are wondering if Xenon (the guy with the whip) is the same as Automata. Please verify this and make more pictures, as knowledge is the best weapon in things like Maplestory.

    Hi Miikun, I will be adding picture once the official images are release for the skills. Too many images slow down the page load ^_^ “

    You need a better blog, Ayumi-chan. Like the one orangemushroom has, yours is just hard to read and WHY SO FEW PICTURES?! RAAAAAAAAAHHHH

    tl;dr blog needs more color and order

  5. RaikaZero

    Dragon Warrior and Jett were based off Pirates, from the name it could be a Mech with some sort of stealth system and speed.

  6. Ayumilove

    Yes, I hope its a brand new job with at least 50% unique skills instead of 80% copied skills like CMS/TMS Dragon Warrior vs GMS Jett vs MSEA Zen Job 🙂 If you have info or opinion about Automata Thief Resistance Class, feel free to share below!
