Blade and Soul: Intro to PVP

After Blade & Soul's first CBT day, many players got curious about its PvP system, which is novel to the extent of allowing only those wearing doboks to fight. Today, let's make a study of the system that is subject to players' garments!


Blade & Soul's PvP system is based on players' doboks, that is, players can duel with the opponents who wear corresponding doboks directly and freely, and no one can fight against those who don't wear any doboks. Only two types of doboks are available in the game currently, namely, "Loyalty" and "Self-warning".

In the game, the players who don't wear doboks or wear the same type of doboks will be attached with white nicknames overhead. If running into someone with a red nickname overhead, just take care since he/she is from an opposing faction and may attack you at any time.

Players can attack those attached with red names directly no matter in the wild or in the safety village. Lots of players wearing doboks from different factions are now fighting each other fiercely in the safety village.

Players can obtain both "Loyalty" and "Self-warning" doboks through doing related factional quests.

To gain "Self-warning" doboks, players need reach Lvl 10 and do the quest - "Puzzled Senior". They can finally get such doboks at Lvl 16 by means of the quest - "Puzzled Girl". Endowed with logical stories, the two quests depict how "Self-warning" grows up and secure players natural gameplay.

Similarly, "Loyalty" doboks can be gained with the help of the corresponding NPC based on the same quest routine.

Either of the two types of doboks can be bought from the store in the related faction.

Meanwhile, those who plan to raid but find their opponents mightier are not allowed to take off their doboks halfway. So, pay more attention during gameplay, as real fighting masters may reveal nothing.

What's more, players cannot launch attacks on those who're dying or those who're practicing pranayama, or they'll be teleported to the safety village nearby directly.

As disclosed by the official company, many more garments will be made available to players in the coming days with a view to a magnificent martial arts world.
