All that oil clearly offers you a tactical advantage. It lets you slip out of grabs and holds more easily! :haw:

Instead of flying through the air with qingqong and such, if you've got the oil set high enough you should be able to travel by just sliding along the ground like it's a fuckin slip-n-slide.

the points you get aren't like currency they are like a thing that fills up an imaginary bar that tells you how useful your premium is

you still gotta pay for premium separately

From the FAQ on the blade and soul site

quote:

Question What are the Premium Membership Tiers?
Answer
You accumulate Premium Points with every purchase you make in the NCoin Store and Hongmoon Store that count towards raising your Premium Membership Tier. Additional Premium Membership benefits, like bonus quest gold and reduced Windstride cooldown, are unlocked as your Premium Membership Tier rises.

Bonus gold and gliding... is that it? Anyone have anymore info and how much premium service cost?

No news on the cost yet, I'm assuming it will be around $15 a month like most MMO subscriptions.

You can make some extremely stupid and funny looking characters. I typically don't like chibi anime trash but playing as a pissed off puppy grandpa with iridescent hair and a deep, gruff voice is just the best.

Oh, when creating your character, remember that the voice is not restricted to race.
If you want your enormous Gon Punchwizard to squeak like the tiniest Lynn, you can.

Yes because they include premium membership for a month/3 months and a bunch of NCoin along with them. Pretty typical founders pack stuff nowadays. Alas, the $125 is the only one that's actually a good deal, because it's like $200+ worth of stuff value-wise but you have to be willing to pay for it up front.

I set the oil to 0% on my bird woman assassin, she's freakish enough without it.

A bit disappointed at the additional hairstyle offerings but the new colors are all much nicer than the muted palette they had before.

It's the same thing they do with wildstar, when you throw RL money at them you get skins/bonuses etc based on a tiered sliding scale.

I'm reading from Reddit's discord that some of them want to start a guild on Mushin. Sounds like some good forum fun may be coming.

reddit furries posted:

Yo, I'm gonna be starting a clan on NA Mushin red side called "Itty Bitty Kitties." We'll be using Discord for voice. I was an officer in a top 3 (on the server) WoW guild, so I know my way around guild management. I'd like to see this guild become one of the top PvP and PvE guilds on Mushin, but I also want to have fun along the way there. So a social guild, but with a hardcore PvE/PvP group of players. I'm gonna be playing a Lyn Summoner, but the guild is not Lyn exclusive. Let me know if this is something you'd potentially be interested in.

Serious business.

And that's where you're wrong! See, proper etiquette on other regions involve letting the other faction do their dailies in peace and vice versa, occasionally setting up kill trades for the odd quest that needs you. This precarious balance can be upset by actually PvPing.

Expect to make a lot of pubbies mad just by having the audacity to play the game. :getin:

So I decided to go ahead and punch the Founders Pack button. Woah and behold I get the "there is an error try again later" with paypal and my credit card fails the authorization. Perhaps the internet gods are telling me not to do it; or should my efforts persist?

If it's the $25 pack, don't do it. If it's $125, question previous life decisions.

If you enjoyed the wuxia cheese and punching/kicking/slashing dudes, then you'll enjoy B&S. The combat is great.

If you enjoyed stealing scripts, throwing up on people, and other associated griffery, there is little enjoyment in B&S to be had.
