Today marks the early start of the MMORPG Bless Online, with the official launch taking place on May 30. We explain what you should know for the release. What time does Bless start?
When does the headstart begin? Early starters who purchase a Founder’s Pack will begin today at 7 PM. This is actually the standard time when Steam launches new games. Since all players (USA and Europe) start at the same time and there is no pre-load, you should be prepared to wait a bit. There may be issues and queues.
Can you buy the founder’s packs beforehand? No, you cannot purchase Bless or start a download beforehand. Everything is scheduled to start this evening. So it will be quite crowded.
There is one server for the USA and one for Europe. Current information mentions only two servers, one for the USA and one for Europe. However, this does not mean that you will see all players on your server, as there are different instances. You will be randomly distributed into these instances, but you can also switch if you want to play with someone who is in a different instance.
You are bound to your faction. At the start, you choose whether you want to belong to the Union or Hieron faction. You will then be bound to this faction, and each of your characters will automatically belong to this faction. If you want to “switch sides”, this can only be done by deleting all your characters and starting completely over.
The Races and Classes of Bless
Choose between five classes. The early access phase of Bless Online offers you five classes, regardless of which faction you belong to:
- Guardian
- Berserker
- Mage
- Ranger
- Paladin
The classes Assassin and Mystic will be introduced at a later time.
Not every race can play every class. Make sure which race you want to play, as not every class is available for every race.
Hieron:
- Hawks can play Guardian, Berserker, Ranger, Mage, and Paladin
- The Sylvan Elves are set to Guardian, Ranger, Mage, and Paladin
- The Lupus can play Guardian, Berserker, and Ranger
- The Mascu can play as Guardian, Berserker, Ranger, Mage, and Paladin
Union:
- Amistads can play Guardian, Berserker, Ranger, Mage, and Paladin
- The Aqua Elves are set to Guardian, Ranger, Mage, and Paladin
- The Panthers can play Guardian, Berserker, and Ranger
- The Mascu can play as Guardian, Berserker, Ranger, Mage, and Paladin
Each race has its own starting zone. If you want to start together with friends, make sure that you all choose the same race. Each race gets its own starting zone.
What does the ingame shop offer? If you possess the ingame currency Lumina (which you can also earn in the game), you can purchase items like EXP potions, more inventory space, and temporary protection from PvP attacks in the ingame shop – as PvP is possible everywhere in the world.
This should make your entry into the MMORPG Bless Online a little easier.
There are a few other things to consider before purchasing Bless Online.
