Another Post From Bless Team Below

 

"Greetings!

As Bless Online’s Steam release is fast approaching, we know that many of you have already decided on a class or at least already have an idea of what you want to play as. However, for those who are still undecided or for those who would like to know more about each class, we have prepared a complete class overview!

Without further ado, let’s begin!

Berserker - King of the Battlefield

Considered brave by allies but fearsome by foes, the berserker lives for battle. Armed with a gigantic two-handed axe, the fearless #Berserker never backs down even when outnumbered by their enemies.

Ranger - Death from Afar

Before anyone is even aware of their presence, a long-ranged battle begins!
The #Ranger, a patroller of the wilderness, is an expert in tracking, scouting, and ambushing. The ranger inflicts increasingly critical damage to their enemies as their concentration increases.

Mage - Guardian of the Ancient Order

A mage enhances their power by combining the various attributes of water, fire, wind, and earth. They also freely control elements such as thunder and snow and can use them to freeze or burn enemies. The #Mage is proud of their explosive attacks and powerful skills.

Guardian - Protector of the Battlefield

Using their rich tactical knowledge, the guardian commands allies and helps them find tactical opportunities by keeping enemies in check. Even if they are surrounded by monsters, the guardian is always calm and will continue to protect their party members. The reliable #Guardian is always protecting the frontlines.


Paladin - Beacon of Healing

The paladin attacks and uses their shield to protect themselves while also utilizing holy magic to heal and revive allies. The #Paladin can make a battle favorable by strengthening a special line of abilities.

Super excited for this game to hit steam! I've been looking for an MMO to pick up for quite some while, and this one seems perfect. I'm sure it'll have a perfect home in TAW!

Another Update from Bless Developers.  This time, about Class Combat.


"Greetings!


As Bless Online’s Steam EA release is fast approaching, we know that many of you are curious about the 5 classes available in the game. In an effort to help you familiarize yourself with the different class combat styles, we have prepared a little preview! In addition to specific combat-related details on each class, we are also sharing class gameplay introduction videos so that you can see each class in action.

Also, please note that names for skills, effects, resources, and stances may not be finalized.

  • Guardian
    YouTube™ Video: [Bless Online] Guardian Combat Preview 
    Views: 7,921
    Explore Guardian's new combat system now! Steam - https://store.steampowered.com/app/68... Website - http://blessonline.net Twitter - https://twitter.com/BlessOnline Facebook -...

    (This preview video was taken in a development environment and therefore does not reflect the final version) 

    Guardians in Bless are known to be brilliant strategic commanders who protect both their allies and the front lines. How do they do this you ask? Well, they need to be brave. Every time a guardian uses a combo, they gain bravery (a resource like mana). Once a guardian’s bravery meter is full, players can change their stance to activate the [Enhance] effect. When [Enhance] is activated, a guardian receives additional effects to help them eliminate their enemies and climb to victory. 

    However being a guardian requires skill specifically, the skill to use the [Enhance] effects before they wear off, as failing to do so results in debuffs being applied. As such, how well a player utilizes [Enhance] is key to their guardian’s success in combat. On the other hand, if you ever find yourself against a guardian in battle, make sure to prevent them from receiving any additional benefits from [Enhance]!

  • Berserker

    Explore Berserker's new combat system now! Steam - https://store.steampowered.com/app/68... Website - http://blessonline.net Twitter - https://twitter.com/BlessOnline Facebook -...

    (This preview video was taken in a development environment and therefore does not reflect the final version) 

    The Berserker has a couple of ways to approach a fight. Depending on what stance they are in, the effect [Blood Leech] or the effect [Bleed] will be activated. 

    [Blood Leech] is, as its name hints, a defense-focused effect that reduces the damage received by recovering a portion of health from the total inflicted damage. [Bleed], on the other hand, is a high risk/high reward effect that consumes a set amount of health per use to increase the amount of damage inflicted on the enemy. 

    When we were redesigning the berserker class, one of our goals was to make it so players could take any stance depending on their preference or situation. In other words, we wanted to make the berserker a class that could go with any playstyle. As a result, we developed 3 concepts for the class: Deadly, Defensive, and Balanced. In addition, we planned to make it so berserkers who take the Defensive concept path could become sub-tankers if they so choose.

  • Ranger

    Explore Ranger's new combat system now! Steam - https://store.steampowered.com/app/681660/Bless_Online/ Website - http://blessonline.net Twitter - https://twitter.com/BlessOnline Facebook -...

    (This preview video was taken in a development environment and therefore does not reflect the final version) 

    Rangers are quietly and thoroughly lethal. Quite literally, no one will see them coming. However, after they draw back their bowstring that is focused with ever increasing intensity on their target, the ranger will announce their presence with a swift arrow. With the ranger class, it is possible to deal great damage or acquire beneficial effects in combat as you increase your prudence resource and minimize your movement. The way to use the prudence resource mostly lies in stance switches, and making this mechanic work well in combat was the main goal for the ranger’s redesign process. 

  • Paladin

    (This preview video was taken in a development environment and therefore does not reflect the final version) 

    When all hope seems lost, fear not! The paladin is here! The third skill of a combo in each of the paladin’s stances is a buff, and by changing the buff used, paladins can function either as a damage dealer or a healer.
    Although the paladin has fewer combo types than other classes, it requires more tactical skill as choosing the right combo for the situation is extremely important. Let's say that your party is in dire need of your healing powers, but you barely have any mana left. Do you go ahead and increase your healing powers despite low mana levels? Or do you activate your mana recharging skills instead? To master the paladin class you need to be able to quickly understand the combat situation as well as be proficient in using combos.

  • Mage

    (This preview video was taken in a development environment and therefore does not reflect the final version) 

    With boom and a bang, the mage has the ability to leave a dramatically powerful impression on their enemies with masterful control of the elements. Mages use stance skills to acquire fire, ice, and air elements and can acquire bonus effects by consuming elements through using certain skills. These additional effects differ per stance and per the element of the skill, they are being applied to. To add an extra layer of depth to the mage class, the mage was redesigned so that players must carefully consider the situation when using the obtained additional effects.


As demonstrated here, each class has its own unique combat style, and different techniques are required to fully utilize each class’s full potential. Although it may seem a little challenging at first, it is an enjoyable combat system with enough flexibility and variety to suit each player’s playstyle. As it can be hard to decide right away on which class is the most suitable for you, be sure to give each class a try once the game is out!

Thank you,
The Bless Team"

Ok, This just in off the Bless News Press

 

"Greetings!

 

First and foremost, we want to let everyone know that community feedback is very important to our developers, and accordingly we are always open to your opinions. Therefore as a response to the questions received about our recent “Early Access Announcement” post, we have prepared the following Q&A.

 

How does pricing work in different countries with different currencies?

Prices for different countries and currencies are set and individually, and won't necessarily be equivalent to the USD price.

 

What is included in the founder’s packs?

We want more information on the founder’s packs.

Founder's packs will include the Bless Online base game, exclusive skins, premium membership, Lumena, and other benefits.
The content of all the founder's packs include the base game, and purchasers can expect around a 31-33% discount from what the price would be if all the components were purchased individually.
 

Is the premium membership subscription based? What are the benefits?

Premium membership is not a subscription based product. Premium membership can help increase efficiency or provide an effect that will, for a limited amount of time, reduce the costs of convenience related fees.

As anyone with the base game can enjoy all of Bless’ content without restriction, premium membership can be see as an option for those who want a more convenient gameplay experience. As we are aware of your concerns regarding P2W, there will be no items that can directly enhance characters or items.

 

The following are details regarding premium membership. They are applied to all characters in a region within the specified time period. (exception: skins may only belong to one character)
 

  • Premium mount skin (Black Wind Caligo)

  • Premium pet skin (Enchanting Loroshi)

  • Reduces NPC equipment repair fee by 30%

  • Reduces Wyvern usage fee by 50%
    : Players can travel to any area within Bless by paying the Wyvern manager (located in each village/city) gold for Wyvern transportation.

  • Pickaxe: This premium pickaxe used for Gathering provides unlimited  usage within the designated time period, whereas the regular pickaxe has an limited number of uses.

  • Gathering Bag: This premium bag used for Gathering provides unlimited  usage within the designated time period, whereas the regular gathering bag has an limited number of uses.

  • Acquires 20% more hunting experience points
    : Increased amount of experience points earned through hunting monsters.

  • Acquires 20% more Dungeon points
    : Increased amount of dungeon points earned through playing dungeons.

  • Adds 20% hunting gold bonus
    : Increased amount of gold earned through hunting monsters.

  • Allows 5 more items to be registered on the market
    : Increased amount of items registerable on the market.

  • Reduces market tax by 10%
    : Reduced market tax rate.

  • Increases daily activity point exchange amount by 20%
    : The amount of exchanges allowed per day within the in-game system, Exchange Office, is increased. The Exchange Office is an in-game feature where players can exchange a specific amount of their dungeon and combat points (earned through in-game activities) into Lumena. It is exchangeable regardless of whether you purchase the premium membership or not. The Lumena that one obtains through exchanges is an in-game currency with which players can purchase a variety of items in the store.

 

Premium mount/pet skins are characteristic appearance skins included only in the premium membership. As they are cosmetics, purchasers will not obtain any secondary benefit from its usage (They are also untradeable and cannot be dismantled).

 

What do the exclusive skins look like? Do they have any secondary effects?

We now present to you the founder’s packs’ exclusive skins!
Skins will only have cosmetic functions and will not have any secondary effects that can be obtained through its usage(they are also untradable and cannot be dismantled).

A weapon skin matching the class of the receiving character will be given(for example, if the item is received by a guardian character, a single-handed sword and shield will be given).

So about that Collector’s Edition…
Tell us more about things such as the credits title and gift copy.

Credits Title: "The Founder"
This feature allows for the purchaser’s name to appear in Neowiz’s Bless Online credits list under the section titled "The Founder." Purchasers can find their names by clicking on "Credit" in the game lobby screen upon the official release of the game.

 

How can we use the gift copy included in the Collector’s Edition?
Does the recipient also get a 2 day head start?

The gift copy is a feature that allows you to gift a friend with a base game code (delivered to the purchaser’s Steam inventory). There is no head start included in the base game code as that is only a benefit provided to founder’s pack purchasers.

 

Can you gift components of the collector’s edition to a friend?

Purchasers of the Collector’s Edition will receive a game code that can be gifted to  a friend. However, game items from the pack cannot be gifted.

 

What is premium customer service?
Does that mean that you won’t be assisting normal players? 

 Premium customer service was a feature designed for purchasers of the collector’s edition to receive exceptional support. However, as a direct response to user feedback, the Bless Team has decided to remove this feature and provide service to all our users equally regardless of the pack or game that they purchased.

 

Premium customer service has been removed from the list of benefits.

 

The price of the Collector’s Edition though...

 As explained above, the founder’s packs contain things such as exclusive skins, Lumena, and additional products that are non-P2W. However, we have received user feedback that the Collector’s Edition is overly expensive. As a result, the Bless Team has decided to adjust the price from $199.99 to $149.99 so that the pack is more accessible for all. 

The Founder’s Pack - Collector’s Edition will be sold at $149.99 instead of $199.99. (We will adjust previous price announcements to state the new price of $149.99)

 

Regarding the Early Access Version of the Game

What are the benefits of being in a guild?

Depending on the guild's influence, there are special items that guild members can buy. It is also one of the few ways to obtain flying mounts. 

 

What can players gain by doing faction PvP? 

A: By dueling within your faction, or engaging in PvP with the opposition faction, players can gain combat points. Using combat points (activity points), players can buy items at the special currency shop.

 

Is there any plan for a non-PvP server? If not, why? 

No! As Bless has both PvP and PvE content, players can play the game however they like without needing to have separate servers.

 

Is there a PvP avoidance item? If yes, what are the details and how can we get it? 

Yes! There is. Before reaching the max level (45) players can use gold to purchase Peace Declaration item, and the effect will last for around 20 minutes. After reaching max level, players can use Lumena to purchase the Peace Pledge item instead. 

 

Will there be a dungeon re-set item? 

Although they do exist, we do not plan to sell it for cash.

 

Do costumes (mount, pet, equipment, and weapons skins) have any secondary effects?

No, they are just skins. Costumes released in the future will also only be skins and nothing more. They also cannot be dismantled, meaning players cannot obtain enhancement items by dismantling costumes. 

 

Will there be Player to Player trading?

No there will not. Aside from the in-game auction house, there is no feature that allows player-to-player trading as we do not want a black market. 
 

What are the plans for updates like?

Is there playable content accessible by purchasing additional DLC?
Will DLC be added when there are new class updates (e.g. assassin)? 

We do not expect purchasers to buy DLC as we have no plans to sell updated content as DLC. For example, content updates that will include the assassin and mystic will be able to be fully enjoyed just with the purchase of the base game.

 

How often can updates be expected?

Although we plan to update the game every month, big updates can be expected around every 3 months. For example, we plan to add the assassin class for the first big update. Afterward, new classes, level increases, and new battlefield content can be expected in similarly sized updates.

 

As we approach the Early Access date even more information will be provided. 

Thank you
The Bless Team"

Another proud words from Bless Team


"Greetings!

Today we will be introducing you to the monsters that you will be able to tame beginning May 30 (or May 28 for those with a head start)!


YouTube™ Video: [Bless Online] Tame the World of Bless 
Views: 8,097
Wanna Tame all Monsters? You can do so in the world of Bless! Steam - https://store.steampowered.com/app/681660/Bless_Online/ Website - https://blessonline.net Twitter -...


Almost all of the existing monsters in Bless can be turned into either mounts or pets - when Early Access begins you will find 660 unique creatures available for taming.



Each region in Bless has its own type of creatures. Depending on the type of environment, you can meet monsters of all sorts: some are cute and friendly, while others are wild and fierce or even ridiculous!

If you happen to stumble upon an elite monster as you journey around the Bless world, try to tame it! Although it may be difficult, if you are successful in taming it you will gain a special companion.



As you tame more and more monsters, your taming level increase and your character will become more skilled at taming. You will also then be able to have more monsters as pets or mounts! However, that’s not all! In Bless, players can level up tamed monsters and enjoy the beneficial effects that they provide.


*There are more mount skills included besides the ones that appear in the image.

Want to tame monsters?
Be sure to start your adventure on May 28!


Thank you
The Bless Team"
