Blade & Soul's September Update Brings Down Solo Pain In The Soul Arena PvE Event
New battle passes are introduced, too.
Still no word on Blade & Soul NEO Classic yet, so my speculation on the future of that NCSoft project still stands, but Blade & Soul proper dropped their September update today and the MMORPG is getting a few different events, new battle passes, and, if you're so inclined, a few discounts on cash shop items.
On the Battle Pass front, two new passes are introduced, each featuring its own new rewards. The Vesper Season Final Battle Pass has multiple challenges organized into stages, but don't forget to use your earned tokens before the pass ends. In addition, we also have the Sacred Oil pass with additional rewards. Blade & Soul is also running a Higher Soul Growth Rate and enhancement event along the passes.
On the PvE front, the Soul Arena hardcore arena awaits solo players who want to take on progressively harder versions of the battle with Numok. This event comes with daily quests, increasing difficulty, and rewards for reaching the hardest versions of the challenge.
It may not be a lot of new content, but hey, at least it's something? Hit up the full patch notes and if you want to spend a little cash, check out the sales going on. Most of the above runs until October 15th.
