I don't see any official post from BnS on banning VPN users per se. Apparently there are posts about people who claim to be banned using VPN, but it could be anything else. For example, playing from a sanctioned country AND using VPN. Or speed hacking, duping, botting .. whatever. A VPN is not a illegal tool by itself, just a service to support correct routing to the server. It's like taking a (paid) taxi instead of the public bus.

Do a traceroute. I have no Idea about the carriers in US/South America, but if you are living in southern Mexico, you may be carried over Cuba(?). And then you are surely blocked. Usually the server farms are in Chicago or Los Angeles(?) for the US BNS Server. I have no idea, I'm from Europe. If the traceroute turns out to be this bad, buy a VPN over Mexico city - Dallas (?) Just as a side note: when I was playing on a US server, the regular trace route is over the atlantic. In some cases I was routed via India and so on ... depends on the carrier.

Only minor bugs, but apparently there's something going south. - small monsters still in dungeon after boss killed and despawned (does not really matter) - I could not resurrect (skills 1+4 did not react). Even escape nor logout did not work (cant logout/escape when dead) - leaving the blue portal after finish threw me out of party into the lobby (not even to SA square where you normally land after leaving party) - 1-2 more minor bugs I forgot It's not causing real problems at the moment, but perhaps you might want to run a check BEFORE it becomes a major problem.

Open Quest letter (press J, then 2nd tag "Quest Letters") Activate "Invitation from Poharan" (Heroic Dungeons, last letter) Speak to Minjung (Moonwater Plains, Blackram East Fleet, Wayfarer's Warf). You now have entry to Blackram Supply Chain. Speak to Yong Sung (Moonwater Plains, Blackram East Fleet, Blackram Shipyard) and accept both quests "Breaking the chain" (it's a daily) Run dungeon Blackram Supply Chain once (can run alone in ~10 min. Fly over the abyss to the wooden plank. Kill the officers to open the door) Speak to Chung Unnam (Moonwater Plains, Hogshead Pastures, Fishing Lodge) Speak to Elderly Hermit Ja Un (Moonwater Plains, Blackram East Fleet, Blackram Shipyard). Unlocks Bloodshade Harbour+daily Thanks to EU-players (Hate, etc.) for giving puzzle pieces to put this together

As we all have unlocked both dungeons we have no idea about the requrements anymore. However, there are clues you can follow: - as Heavens Mandate is the repetition of a fight at the altar with Jinsoyun, it might be unlocked by doing YELLOW side quests - often a letter is required to start/unlock something. Press J and go to the tab "Quest letters" - your highest chance is to open the Daily Challange and mouseover the red X. If it says something like "The path of dark arts", you should search for this specific quest. You may want to do all your quest letters by the way to unlock all essentials (except the recurring ones)

When BnS started, it was quite a PvP focused game as I remember. The faction chat was to coordinate people in the open PvP area. But this does not exist anymore. Never have I seen a PvP relevant info in the faction chat within the last months since coming back. So - why are people still using /faction instead of /world? Possible reasons: - I don't want to sell to or buy from the other faction - I don't want to run a dungeon with the other faction - I don't want share my confidential info (e.g. "marketplace/F5 not working") with the other faction - I don't want to reach out to more people

UI issue. Click on the word "Relic" and a dropdown view will appear. Your relics are stored there.

You need to finish the story to unlock the questgiver. Or (I think) you can meet him on the dungeon square for Skysong.

Totally agree. Events should be not for everyone but only for paying people. I suggest an entry ticket for the next event, sold in the Hongmoon shop for 100€. Imagine having actually people playing BnS. On the serious side: This event is just a gear check. There's no skill, there's no mech, there's no fun. They could have just put up a training dummy and made a payout for 500M dps or whatever. Even the monk has more mech than this event. And at this point everyone should ask if this is an "event" at all. They should have called it "loyalty payout" and everyone would be fine.

Escape button -> settings -> game, left corner "reset" -> key bindings, left corner "reset" (include mouse) try this one?

*hold ALT (not CTRL)

Questing has been streamlined and you will be given approbiate equipment while leveling. Upgrading (low level) weapons is no longer supported.

"I can no longer control the mouse" - please elaborate. Is your physical mouse moving on its own? You hold onto it but it floats to the ceiling and makes hissing noises? Then your best help would be your local exorcist. Move fast as this might be contagious and your whole family is floating to the ceiling and making devillish sounds. The cost for the exorcist sums up. In case you have a problem with the mouse pointer ingame, try caps lock for permanent release or hold control for temporary actions.

Sometimes when changing lanes, my character is set back on the tile and I'm kind of "lagging" and falling down. Is there a trick to this?

100 keys = 3920 NCcoin ~ 50€ 850 keys = 33.320 NCcoin = 420€ (20k+8k+4k+1,6k packages) I know from other MMOs that there is a failsafe. Means, you get e.g. an outfit token for each 100 key pack. With this, your 50€ does guarantee you an outfit. I'm not sure if one should follow the monetarization of NCsoft. Of course that way people are spending more. But perhaps I'm too used to the failsafe monetarization and do not take part in this gamble.
