The update is now live to all players –full details on the latest content can be found on the game’s official website.
Blade & Soul: Symphony of Destruction will include:
The Musician Player class– As the 15th class to be added to Blade & Soul, the Musician plays a unique role of both damage dealer and party support. Using a harp as their weapon, the Musician channels their music into power effects – from damaging note projectiles to melodic shields, and harmonies as party buffs, the Musician offers players a unique solo and party experience. Players who master the combat rotations will unlock a skill- and stance-switching champion that excels at lifting their own spirits as well as their party’s. And of course, what musician couldn’t resist the spotlight. The Performance stance will let players compose music in the game with a 24 musical note selection to keep downtime lively.
The Mount System – Since its inception, Blade & Soul used the Windwalking system for players to quickly and efficiently navigate the massive open world of the Earthen Kingdom. But with mounts, players will be able to traverse in style, with unlimited run stamina. Mounts will only be available for travel in the open world – they won’t work in dungeons or during combat. Mount up and ride!
The Grim Nexus – The latest dungeon from Blade & Soul is a mythical Demonsbane dungeon, which provides players with a dynamic difficulty and increasing rewards. Nestled in a massive tree near an abandoned shrine, the Grim Nexus is rife with the dark occultists, the Ebondrake. Journey into the dungeon to stop their nefarious rituals and fight back against the tide of Chaos.
This content and more await in the Blade & Soul: Symphony of Destruction update, which is now live. To mark the occasion of the new Musician class is a new in-game based sweepstakes, the annual Cosmetic Design contest, where winning designs will be implemented in-game, with more to come.
