Yeah, mine went super fast.

Ends 22nd.

ETA: my family name is Worship and character name is WorshipMe, not sure which to add but add me. Oh and I'm on Orwen server. The channel on that server doesn't matter, last night they only had Orwen, now they have Edan and Orwen and characters are specific to that server.

Here is an excellent guide that will help you out a lot.

I'm still pretty lost on a lot of stuff. Housing, fishing, lodges, etc. You buy houses, and your guild eventually buys enough to own the township, create jobs, etc, and you have to defend it over other guilds. About all I know.

This game is all about PVP and guild battles over land/towns, etc.


I just want the puppy for my pet "naughty dog"

I'm really enjoying it, the combat and graphics put Bland and Soul to shame. Just a matter of the game type versus the game itself on whether or not I buy it. After a weekend I'll know, grinding is typically just not my thing and this game is all PVP based and that takes hitting level 45 to unlock.

Also finding a guild to take over towns/settlements and play with isn't typically my thing either. I like being solo. But it's still mainly the grinding, I don't want to buy it and a month later be completely done and tired of it, tons of content still on the way may help.

Make sure you hit F3 in game to open the store, and click recharge at the bottom, they give you like 6K free coins for the Beta. That will buy your character a full kit, and a horse.

Typically how I play, it's such a pain to find a good guild without drama. The PVP thing has me questioning whether it's something I want to buy.

Yep, it's a very PVP oriented MMO. I don't ever really play MMO's so I have no clue if that's normal or not. I feel like the open world outside villages and stuff being PVP is pretty normal in all MMO's though no?

Beyond that there is:

quote:

~Siege PvP~
Every week the best PvP Guilds can fight for glory in huge PvP Sieges. During the Siege War every participating Guild will build it’s own base near the Fortress. The Guild that kills the King of the Fortress will own it and it’s surroundings until the next Siege War. Sounds easier than it is, because your Guild is not the only one trying to conquer the Fortress. Do you have what it takes to lead your Guild to victory against thousands of enemies?


Guild related, so meh, but sounds fun.

And then there is:

quote:

~Arena PvP~
Normal PvP Arenas can be found in every major City. In the PvP Arena you can fight other Players without any penalties.


And

quote:

~Instanced PvP~
Looking for some serious 3 vs. 3 matches? Just join the Lobby for Instanced PvP if you and your friends wants to fight other teams in an instanced environment.


And

quote:

~Crimson Battlefield~
Crimson Battlefield is a merciless battle system which you can participate in with the help of your Black Spirit from anywhere and anytime if you are over level 50. You do not have any death penalty on this special Battlefield. If you defeat enemy players continuously, a message praising your achievement will be displayed. Normally the position of enemy players are displayed on world map, and if a character achieves 5 continuous / 10 continuous kills, that player will be displayed on world map as a leading character. It’s like a huge area where 2 Teams fight against each other.

Well, Blade & Soul is 7 years old to be fair.

Not sure about the quality of combat just yet. Still trying to get it all figured out. In terms of endgame, I'm pretty excited about it. It's one of the first MMOs where content isn't locked behind max level. It's designed to place a high value on leveling through the world, with little emphasis on running dungeons over and over again.

Yeah, I'll have a much bigger idea by the time the weekend ends. I'll either be preordering or done with it.

I'm enjoying it so far though. Still getting things down myself, but getting pretty solid combat wise.

I have yet to go fishing, or do any crafting, or buy a house.
