On August 12, Blade & Soul Revolution rolled out a fresh round of balancing for its new Miho Swordmaster class, accompanied by a new mission event. In a bid to polish the user experience, the developers have also tweaked the completion criteria for the 'Jumping/Newbie Challenge Guide Season 1' and dialed back the difficulty on several missions.

It is standard practice for Blade & Soul Revolution to dedicate a period of 'after-care' to any new class following its launch. The Miho Swordmaster is no exception, with the team continuously refining its skills. While the previous emergency maintenance focused on survivability—tweaking invincibility and crowd control resistance—this latest update shifts gears to the sub-skill 'Spirit Line Strike'. The cast time has been trimmed from 0.9 seconds down to 0.7 seconds, aiming for a much snappier, more fluid feel in combat.

As for the 'Jumping/Newbie Challenge Guide Season 1', the quality-of-life improvements are quite welcome. For instance, count-based missions like 'Guardian Stone Purchase' will now retroactively count progress made even before the specific task was unlocked. Furthermore, the legendary entry ticket fragment mission has been shifted from a 'purchase' requirement to a simple 'acquisition' one, and the skill book crafting condition now includes promotion books. It is a clear effort to smooth out the rough edges that usually frustrate newcomers to Blade & Soul Revolution.

Don't miss the two new mission events designed to help you buff your gear. Both 'Autumn Equipment Support' and 'Restoration Support' are packed with weapon-centric rewards, focusing respectively on weapon crafting and durability restoration.

The former allows players to snag up to 50 'Black Shining Ancient Weapon Blueprint Fragments' by participating in the Altar of Origin and the Chaos Battlefield. The latter rewards players for their contributions in Arena and Monster Boss raids, offering 20 'Top-tier Ancient Weapon Restoration Stones' and one 'Premium Ancient Weapon Restoration Stone'. Both events run from this update through to the update scheduled for late August. You can find the full details regarding this update and the events over at the official Blade & Soul Revolution community forum.
