We finally have a date! Blade & Soul's second closed bets test event will start this month on August 29th and last until September 10th (KST Dates)! Like the first closed beta test event, CBT2 will take place in Korea and will only be accepting Korean residents.

So what's new in CBT2?

  • Content and level raised to 37.
  • The Assassin class will be available for play as will the previous 4 classes.
  • The gathering and crafting systems will be available.
  • Multiple new dungeons unlocked.
  • New zone/area available; Grand Desert. (Map)
  • Contested PvP zones will be making its debut.

The Dojo will be covering this closed beta test event for our community as it is not protected by a non-disclosure agreement, or NDA. Our coverage will include a daily livestream, direct translations and more media than you'll know what to do with! Be sure to visit our Beta Discussion forum section to chat about anything CBT2 related.

Is the Dojo going to focus on one character instead of multiple like last time? A majority of the beginning stuff seems over saturated now, so I'm wondering if there's going to be a focus on trying to get farther into the new content.

We're going to have multiple people playing on the livestream, taking turns/shifts. Each person will be playing one class and sticking to it throughout the levels.

Multiple people spending much time with one character,
or multiple people spending time to bring multiple classes to light.
I guess the choice lies there.

I guess the wipe of a beta is always a nibble? :x
(having to start over again, having to re-tread...it may be something you have to cope with [no offence]


- Lith. ...Choice.

That really wouldn’t be waiting though. You were just one of the ignorant masses before. Now you can endure the sweet sweet torture that is waiting for BnS with the rest of us.

Can't wait to see more PvP action.
That is all.

I was being borderline facetious. I knew that B&S was in the works in 2008 or so, then forgot about it a few times for about a year each, so I was kinda waiting, kinda not...? Give it a try sometime.

Now that I know about details and dates, even if they're for unfinished versions of the game, forgetting about it is much, much harder.

Yep. 小太刀.
It pronounce like 'So-Tae Do' by Korean, But I think you guys know this one`s name 'Kodachi', By Japanese.

Hah!
I knew they would go down this path. It was only logical.
Next, expect Kunai/Shuriken and Wakizaki/Short Katanas.

Lovely! I'll definitely be here to watch the stream. I'm burning to see the assassin class in action! Posted Image
