  1. Bonjour,

     

    Suite à la maintenance prolongée du mercredi 3 avril une compensation a été offerte à tous les joueurs. Un cadeau de Hongmoon est disponible dans la boutique pour 0 pièce de Hongmoon. Ce cadeau contient les objets suivants :

     

    • 2 orbes des ténèbres
    • 2 tablettes de réinitialisation de l'Autel flottant et de l'Entrepôt froid

     

    Ce cadeau est disponible une fois par compte et ce jusqu'à demain, vendredi 5 avril à 2 h (heure de Paris). Nous tenons une nouvelle fois à nous excuser pour cette maintenance ayant empêchée de nombreux joueurs, notamment européens, d'accéder à Blade & Soul.

     

    Merci encore pour le soutien apporté à Blade & Soul

  2. Regarding anything creative, things can be shared directly on the Fan Creations forums, that's probably the best avenue for that. Art can also be tweeted to us, we will like/RT some of it as well (we obviously cannot like or RT just about everything). When it comes to guides or useful resources for the Community, we got that thread (which is a bit outdated, but we can dust that off!), feel free to link your pastebin to me and I'll be able to add them there too.

     

    I am not extremely keen on having banners on forums / signatures. Keeping the place as readable as possible is our first priority, even if it may look a bit stale. Regarding colour template/design anyone is just free to make their custom CSS and use an extension like Stylish or Stylus. If someone comes up with something amazing I wouldn't even mind sharing it publicly but it will have to remain something "unofficial" through an extension. For brand image reasons we have to keep the default design as it is, it's not something we can change on a whim. (However if you feel that something is difficult to read due to a bad colour scheme, as long as it's something minor it's an adjustment I can make instantly).

     

    Regarding the Avatar Gallery and forum upgrade, I just asked the team in charge again today for an ETA. It's a feature we know works since we have it on another NCSOFT title forums, so all we need is to deploy that update on Blade & Soul forums.

  3. Hi! We answered to that question several times in the past and letting everyone to choose the avatar they want on forums is a route we will never take. We've all seen what can happen on F2 Profile pictures in-game already, I would like to avoid our Moderators chasing up after inappropriate avatars/signatures all day long, not to mention that forums are readable technically by anyone (including non-authenticated users) meaning that there's no age gating in place, so all content published in here must be completely safe for work (we are even more strict than we are in-game here). Let's not mention all the drama related to art theft that we would have to deal with too.

     

    Our initial goal when we launched forums was to directly integrate in-game data so your avatar would be representing your character in-game (like WoW basically), as well as pulling basic settings such as your level, clan etc. That was unfortunately never put in place. The alternative we are looking at is to have an avatar gallery. It's something we will be able to do once Blade & Soul forums gets upgraded (right now the functionality isn't present in the current version of the forum software we are using). Once that feature is in, adding a bunch of pre-determined avatars for everyone to choose from will be easy!

     

    Great mock up also Showta, thank you for taking the time to make that!

  4. Hello,

     

    I can understand how frustrating this issue can be since both the Chest and Gem names were incorrect in that case. This problem was reported to our services as the Customer Support agent mentioned to you. After further investigation, it turns out to be solely a description/name issue both for the Box and the Garnet > Peridot. Initially the box was named Gilded Square Gem Chest instead of Gilded Triangular Gem Chest. Likewise for all of its content which was named [Gilded Square X] instead of [Gilded Triangular X] and on top of that, "Garnet" was present instead of "Peridot". So it's basically 2 localisation issues on a single box hence why I understand why this could have been extremely confusing for you.

     

    However when it comes to the item itself (on the back end) you received the proper reward, only the description/text is incorrect that is why the Support Team did not replace your item since from a functionality point of view everything worked as it should (the box is supposed to give Gilded Triangular Gems, you got a Gilded Triangular Gem.)

     

    Would you be able to name the players who claim to have received Square Gems from that very box and when so we could investigate further and confirm what exactly happened there? Are they really certain that they obtained an actual Square Gem and not just a triangular one with a wrong description/name? Because the box should never have given any Squared Gems. Thanks again!

  5. Bonjour,

     

    Suite aux retours des joueurs concernant l'événement en cours, l'éclosion de l'esprit, nos équipes ont pris la décision d'ajouter de nouveau un sachet de l'élévation disponible quotidiennement dans la boutique de Hongmoon pour 0 pièce de Hongmoon. Le nouveau sachet contient les objets suivants :

    • 1 orbe des ténèbres
    • 1 orbe d'efflorescence

    Vous pouvez obtenir ce sachet une fois par jour et par compte jusqu'à la maintenance du 10 avril, date de la fin de l'événement.

     

    Merci pour le soutien apporté à Blade & Soul

  6. Hello all,

     

    We understand there have been difficulties in participating in the event and so the Ascension Pouch is once again available in the Hongmoon Store for 0 Hongmoon Coins. The Ascension Pouch was updated and now contains (1) Orb of Ascension and (1) Blossom Orb, which can be picked up once per day per account until the Blossoming Soul event ends on April 10. 

     

    We wish you the best in completing your Fleeting Legacy Soul or anything else you're working on to acquire.

  7. Hello Gman,

     

    Both files are safe and are calling the same process so don't worry about it! One shortcut is dedicated purely to the launcher one is for Blade & Soul (that still get started through the launcher). Obviously right now there's no difference because only Blade & Soul is using the new launcher, but we will add more products in there eventually :)

  9. Hello,

     

    Sadly that issue affecting both Warden and Gunslinger will not be fixed in today's update. I understand that this can be very frustrating and I understand how important it is for both of these classes. We have reported this issue further up last Wednesday as soon as we were made aware of it, however the fix hasn't been delivered yet so it couldn't be deployed today. At this time I cannot provide an estimated date for a fix, then again with all the feedback we received about this we understand how it is important to players so it's something that will be pushed to get fixed as soon as possible.

  10. I just fail to understand your reasoning when you state "put you too much behind". Either it's too long/tedious to reach the cap everyday, but in that case it is for nearly all players therefore you won't be behind since almost nobody will reach the cap everyday anyway. Either it's not and in that case the system doesn't require any changes.

     

    It cannot be both at the same time. Hence my original reply: we will assess how players are progressing through the Unity system and make adjustments in the future if required, but as it stands (meaning today) there won't be any change. I understand that this system may not suit your schedule and/or play-style but we cannot adjust an entire system just because of individual feedback on the matter. We are collecting data on how players are engaging with various content in Blade & Soul and the Unity System is no exception, your feedback is directing us where to look but ultimately what will weigh the most in decision making are factual metrics and I hope that you understand that (again even if this may not go in the direction that you want.)

  11. Nobody is forcing you to reach the cap literally everyday. The most dedicated players will, but that shouldn't be everyone. The system wasn't designed to allow just about everyone to easily reach the cap daily but instead to reward the most active players. You may not reach the cap daily and that's perfectly fine, instead of just thinking about the Unity system as a task you must complete no matter what, focus on playing the game as you would normally and increase Unity along the way. Eventually you'll reach the cap.

     

    The Unity system has been designed with long term goal in mind, we will re-assess it as time goes by but as it currently stands the Daily Cap isn't going to change.

  12. Well the whole idea of having a daily cap is to incentivise players to log on and be active daily. Making that cap weekly would defeat the purpose. Sure there are days where people cannot play but that's the same for pretty much everyone in the end, you will just miss your Unity for that day. The very same happen with any activity that resets on a daily basis.

  13. The new Temple of Succession series of Quests will yield enough EXP to bring a character from level 55 to level 60. As for the ticket, as said above it can be used on existing or new characters. Obviously you get more "value" out of it whenever using it on a character that is freshly created :)

    @Youmukon And what about the "Pink Soul Badge" fuses? A lot of people wonder if those will be available for exchange as well, as some classes need them desperately after awakening as currently used badges won't be as useful or downright a "waste of a slot"(i.e. Wind Blade Dancers current used badge is Undying and after awakening, the Glory Soul Badge part of it becomes completely useless). At least Awakened Soul Badges should be available for exchange to the new "Pink Soul Badge" fuses when they're available, as the price to awaken a soul badge is way too expensive and even more so if you want to awaken the new "Pink Soul Badge" fuses. Or at least let us salvage the Awakened Soul Badges(like the Purple Mystic Badges) to get some of the materials we used back so we don't get cucked by the price of making them only to throw them away 2 patches later.

    I would need to verify that to give a 100% certain answer but as of now the NPC in charge exchanging badges in the Mushin Tower only ask for a "Legendary Soul Badge" as source material, so that should include future Pink Soul Badge fuses. However right now it's not a feature we can directly test since it's not coming in the March 13th update hence why it may take longer for me to fetch a certain answer to your question, sorry about that!

     

    As for the "when" they will be able to be fused, well a future update and we cannot give out any date for now!

    @Youmukon Will we get a third specialization? I believe this has been asked a few times, but I haven't seen an official response.

    Only two specialisations will be available with the March 13th update.

    Regarding the legendary soul badges, do they have to be awakened to exchange them?

    They can't just be Eon Soul Badge or Limitless Soul Badge? You need it to be awakened to exchange them?

    They don't have to be Awakened, Eon Soul Badge or Limitless Soul Badge can be exchanged :)

  16. Hi,

     

    Just wanted to give a quick update regarding a question that was asked a lot: "how long will we be able to exchange our badges/accessories". I got the confirmation that there's no time limit for now. The NPC present at Mushin Tower enabling you to switch your Mystic/Soul Badges will remain there indefinitely, no time limit as well regarding accessories meaning that you do not have to rush to Stage 10 Legendary / Awakened before the update hits. We will make sure to give players more than enough time in advance if we were to change the above.

     

    If you have any more question regarding Mystic/Soul Badges or Accessories specialisation change don't hesitate to ask in this thread. Thanks!

    Question for Youmukon.  With element changing to "force" I'm assuming that the obsidian gems will do the same.  So if I have a flame octal obsidian, a shadow octal obsidian and a lightning octal obsidian after the patch will I then have 3 "force" octal obsidians?  Thank you.

    As Kozuki said they will just become one type with the "Force" stat on them instead.

    @Youmukon

    I know this may be off the topic, but is there any chance to bring back the "Hard Corps Raiding" daily quest in Misty Woods for the "secret agent" outfit? I was farming the outfit for months, and after the last patch, it's gone and I am so sad. Or maybe make it dropable(?) without the daily quest?

    Thank you ٩(。・ω・。) و

    I'm going to be honest, probably no chance at all. It's feedback we can raise, but I don't have much hope when it comes to bringing back old content as it's not something we fully control.

    “Awakened Undying Soul Badge – Stage 8” can be exchanged for an “Awakened Limitless Soul Badge – Stage 8” 

    do we need this too to be awakened stage 8 to be able to exchange them or can we do it a basic level ?!.

    That was just an example, anything legendary awakened any stage is fine. Apologies if this was confusing, I edited the original post to clarify.

  19. Hello, first thanks again for all the questions / feedback! Quickly replying to some:

    • Psyches: Yes they will be carried over.
    • What if my badge/accessory enhanced a skill that will be no longer present because of the new update (i.e. Summoner): don't panic, badges/accessories will be updated as well to reflect those changes.

    Will try to get answers how long exchange will be possible and also regarding when Pink badges will be able to be fused (and obviously if exchange will still be present when fusion of Pink badges will be added.)

  20. Hello!


    As you know our next major update, Legacy of the Hongmoon Clan will be released on March 13th. In anticipation for this update we will be starting releasing articles on the official site regarding various new features introduced with this update.


    On top of that we also received a lot of questions on Twitter regarding the future of Badges and Accessories upgrade. Rather than answering them one by one I wanted to take the opportunity today to give everyone some clarification on what will be coming March 13th. Below is just a rough list which I hope will answer the bulk of questions we received regarding that very topic:

     

    • Mystic Badges and Fused Soul Badges will be able to be converted for another Mystic Badge / Fused Soul Badge. Like for like. All you will have to do is talk to an NPC in the Mushin tower to exchange your badge. For example, an “Awakened Undying Soul Badge – Stage 8” can be exchanged for an “Awakened Limitless Soul Badge – Stage 8” or an “Awakened Eon Soul Badge – Stage 8” or its Legacy/Colossus/Ancestral… Stage 8 iteration. This is valid at any stage, so an "Awakened [anything] Soul Badge – Stage n" can be traded for an "Awakened [anything] Soul Badge – Stage n". The same applies to Mystic Badges where Dynasty <> Aransu can be exchanged, again like for like.
    • Accessories will be able to be converted for another specialisation (i.e. Earth <> Wind for Summoner). This will only be available for Legendary Accessories that are Stage 10 or Awakened. Through evolution you will be able to switch to a different specialisation at the cost of 1 Moonstone or 1 Elysian Crystal depending on the accessory. You are free to switch back as many times as you want.
    • The new Tower of Infinity badges (which everyone commonly refers as “the pink badges”) will be available for purchase but won’t be able to be upgraded/fused for now.


    We will make sure to keep you informed in this thread if any of the information above was to change prior the update. Hopefully it should not, but while we cannot prevent last minutes changes to happen in the game, we can however promise that the minute we are aware of any change you will be kept in the loop.


    If you have any question regarding the Legacy of the Hongmoon Clan update don’t hesitate to drop us a tweet @BladeandSoul. Feel also free to reply in this thread, we’ll make sure to answer whenever we can.


    Thanks again for your continued support!

    Extra points that were answered over the course of the thread:

     

    • Psyche will be carried over!
    • There's no time limit to exchange your Soul/Mystic Badges or accessories, meaning you don't have to rush to get your items upgraded before the update.
  21. Hello,

     

    Blade & Soul is published in Thailand and Vietnam by Garena. The other alternative in the area would be Blade & Soul Taïwan published by NC Taïwan or Blade & Soul China by Tencent. There are no plan for NCSOFT West to open a server in South East Asia with the English version of the game.
