content auto translated from {from}

The celebration of the anniversary of the Russian version of Blade & Soul, launched in May 2016, will take place in Blade & Soul NEO — the relaunch of the original game with updated graphics and gameplay and interface improvements up to modern standards.

In honor of the tenth anniversary, players will be able to receive several gift packs by the end of May, including useful resources and commemorative items. For example, until May 27, players can claim a set of exchange tokens, chests with glyphs, drawings, and reshaping stones, as well as a lucky chest with a five-colored thread for free in the in-game store. During the same period, a special "Master's Gift of Moustaches" is available, featuring a nameplate and the dialogue cloud "Moon Rabbit," pieces of a legendary manuscript, gold tickets, and chests.

A particularly valuable gift from the Russian publisher will be available until the end of June using the promo code RUNEOGOLD_SELECTOR. It includes a chest with a legendary technique manuscript of choice, allowing players to learn new powerful skills or improve old ones. Along with this, masters will receive a new outfit, hairstyle, wings, as well as a set of thunder trigrams, stones, spirit cores, and 100 fireworks for festive moods in the game.

As for the developers of the game — the South Korean company NC — they will gift the masters a cosmetic set called "Desert Wind."

In addition, players can look forward to the following activities and bonuses:

  • Golden Tickets. Allow free strengthening or changing equipment effects without material and gold costs.
  • Increased Experience in Dungeons. Players can earn double experience for completing the locations "Cave of the Hedgehogs," "Dungeon of Madness," and "Sanctuary of the Order."
  • Hunt for Rulers. Local rulers have appeared in the Abundant Plain and White Mountains, and destroying them can yield event currency that can be exchanged for enhancements.
  • Rating Dungeon. A weekly competition is organized for completing the "Queen's Altar" dungeon. Masters who make it to the top 5 will receive additional rewards, while the season leader will get a particularly valuable prize.
  • Search for the E Notes Brothers. Cunning striped thieves have hidden in the dungeons of the White Mountains with stolen supplies. Finding them can yield a generous reward.
  • Daily Reward Calendar. Every day during the event, players can claim one gift.

Here is a congratulatory speech for Russian players from NC Corporation: "We congratulate the players of Blade & Soul Russia on this significant anniversary. 10 years is a long time, which shows that we have been through a lot together. While continuing to work on each update, we hope that it provides all players with as many emotions and exciting adventures as possible. Thank you for staying with us all these years. We will make every effort to ensure that the coming year is special and exciting in the Blade & Soul universe for every player. We thank all players who have continued to remain with us since 2016; those who joined over the years, and newcomers who have only just started playing. We really wanted to congratulate you personally and pass on our wishes and gifts for this wonderful date. Let’s spend even more wonderful days together, meet many updates and events, and celebrate all subsequent holidays together.”

Video congratulations were also recorded by the team of the Russian distributor of Blade & Soul, FoGame, and the first brand manager of the Russian version of Blade and Soul, Kirill Sushon, known in the community as "Master of Moustaches."
