Available to Adventurers.
You can switch between classes. For example, if you're a Hero, you can switch to Dark Knight or Paladin
You can do this once a day by talking to the 4th job Instructor
Limit resets at midnight. At KMST there is no limit
Mesos are required to changed. The higher the change, the more it costs
After changing, SP will be reset
Character Cards will remain the same
If you're switching where a job's main stat is different, it'll be switched (Viper <-> Corsair/Captain)
Once switching ,you'll be given a Lv. 100 weapon of that job.
What, when are they tweaking DBs and Cannons?
Ah, Maple... brings back memories. I've retired in 2008 or so, when Mabi came out. I think I'm still a lvl 159 Dark Knight. I was pretty pro when I played actively. :D Especially in boss battles, I'd never die or d/c so my groups could always depend on me for HB. <3

I hear they've made a lot of changes and ruined DKs since then? Like everyone gets HB now, or something? New skills? I've also heard of pay2win weapon upgrades and stuff. Did they screw up HP washed characters?
I'm definitely not gonna come back and grind, but I'm considering installing MS and messing around a bit. Anything I should take note of?

The Kerning Square Remake and Gold Beach SUCK.
KS asks for WAY TOO MANY THINGS which is 2x, if not 3x the amount of the pre-Unleashed. And then, Blake is a big fucking dick. Worst of all, WHERE'S THE CONCERT WE DESERVED?!
The only good that comes out of it is that you don't need crap from Spirit of Rock nor do you have to kill so many amplifiers, but that's kinda bleh to me.
Gold Beach takes way too long. They ask you to kill nearly 100 of every monster and get 50 of their drops, sometimes not happening in the same time. Then they keep asking you to go back to the fucking entrance and then you gotta go ALL THE WAY BACK to the end of the instance. ITS FUCKING STUPID.
