Blade & Soul's next content update is on the horizon. Slated for March 2, the Unchained update will introduce an all new class -- the Warlock.

The Warlock uses mid-range abilities, executes quick combos, and can summon a demonic Thrall. More information on this new class will be released on "Warlock Class Week" starting February 22.

In addition to the new character, players will also have access to two new dungeons. The Naryu Labyrinth is a Heroic dungeon available in both 6 and 4 player versions that offers a 3-stage encounter designed to challenge max level players. Upon completion of an encounter, a door to the next area of dungeon will unlock at random, giving players the chance to have a different experience every time they enter.

The 8th floor of Mushin's Tower will also be made available. This is the final floor of the tower and pit players against an ethereal manifestation of Mushin himself.

More information on the update can be found on the Blade & Soul site.

While I do highly appreciate that they are making up for the 3 year wait by bringing the game up to date as soon as they can, there are still a good few glaring issues that they need to sort out. Hopefully once this update is out and they're a bit closer to matching the Asian clients in term of content, they can tackle the current issues and make the game fully prepared for the large PVP e sports scene that's sure to rise by resolving the majority of server issues.

They need to release more PVE content. After one week at max level i feel like i don't have anything fun to do anymore, except farming money for weapon and gear upgrade which is insanely expensive.

It seriously sucks that they are releasing this class so soon after launch. It was just far enough out that players couldn't wait but now nearly every single new character for the next month is just going to be a Warlock. They seriously couldn't just put in 1% more effort to have it ready a month sooner? They had literal years to prep this game.
