On November 5th, 'Vampir' rolled out its new 'Bloodline Evolution' content. It’s a permanent stat-boosting system that unlocks at level 62. Naturally, the community has been abuzz since the update, as the system requires a dedicated currency called 'Evolution Stones.' The burning questions on everyone's lips? How to get those stones, and where to spend them first. KookminTree has stepped up to break down the grind and provide some essential tips.

Q. Where do I get these Evolution Stones?
A. You can nab them via events, World & Gehenna Bosses, and Epic Dungeon rewards.

As mentioned, you’ll need these stones for the Bloodline Evolution system. You can purchase them 25 times per week per server, but it'll set you back 2,000 Diamonds for a pack of 10. For the free-to-play crowd, that means a purchase every two weeks. Honestly, 10 stones won't get you very far in the new system.

While you could burn through paid goods or mileage, it is better to get a handle on the in-game grind. Your primary sources are Events, World Bosses, Gehenna Bosses, and Epic Dungeons. The event 'Boiling Blood, Bloodline Evolution' is your best bet, offering 20 stones and 3 'Evolution Stone Pouches'—a sort of lucky dip that drops 2, 3, 10, or 100 stones at random. You can snag these by grinding out daily quests (24 times) and using 50 stones.

You’ll need 30 extra stones to clear those usage missions, and since the event only hands out 20, you'll need to look elsewhere. World Bosses (for those hitting 70% contribution), Gehenna Bosses (for the final blow on 2-star+), and Epic Dungeons (starting from 'Defiled Sanctuary') are your go-to spots. If you had already cleared your Epic Dungeons before the November 5th update, don't panic; rewards will be retroactively applied. Just keep in mind that World and Gehenna bosses are highly competitive.

Q. I’m short on stones and I need them right now.
A. You might want to consider the 'Opening Celebration Premium Attendance' book for a Diamond spend.

If you're in a rush, the 'Opening Celebration Premium Attendance' is an option. It costs 2,000 Diamonds—which you can earn through gameplay. The rewards are actually decent: 11 Special Figure/Vehicle Summon Tickets, 30 Evolution Stones, and 9 pouches. Combined with the event, you’ll have enough to clear all missions. You have until November 19th, 4:59 AM to grab this while you farm your Diamonds.

Q. Where should I start with Bloodline Evolution?
A. It depends on your level, as different segments unlock at different stages.

The system is split into Root and Enhancement tiers, further divided into 1 through 4. Each tier boosts different stats: 1 for bonus damage, 2 for evasion, 3 for defense, and 4 for max HP. These unlock sequentially at levels 62, 64, 66, and 69.

With 50 stones from events, you have five shots at evolution. It’s essentially a bingo mechanic; activating the first and third vertical columns grants bonus effects, with success rates of 10%, 50%, and 40% respectively. My advice? Evolve all columns first before dumping extra resources. Repeating a column levels it up and strengthens the base effect.

You can evolve each column twice; after that, you can pay 100 Diamonds to reset it. If you aren't flush with resources, don't rush the reset. You keep the base effects regardless of the bingo outcome. Take your time, level up, and focus on the Enhancement tier—which doesn't open until level 82 anyway.
