A lot of the staff here at Massively OP were chatting and complaining about the massive snowstorm that dumped a whole lot of snow and ice all over the country earlier this week. And while it’s been a headache for many, it’s also triggered a “snow day” for Blade and Soul.
NCsoft announced that its Texas-based studio was impacted so greatly by the storm that it’s had to delay Blade and Soul’s Eternal Blade update, moving it from today to February 24th:Â “While our game service remains mostly unaffected, the rolling blackouts prevent our Server Operations team from securely deploying the necessary builds and files for the update.”
The delay won’t stop you from reading the patch notes, however. Eternal Blade is adding the Spectral Shrine solo dungeon, a “Soulmate” event (with chocolate hearts!), and an increase of the unity system from level 180 to 210.
“Spectral Shrine is a new solo dungeon that is available for players level 60 HM 24 or higher,” said the studio. “Easy (duo), normal (solo), and hard (solo) modes are available.”
