Bless Armor Preview

Neowiz recently introduced the Armor of Bless. Your armor is supposed to reduce the damage you take in battles, but it also should fit your character, your class and your style of play.

First at all, the look of your gear depends on your class and race. Every race has it’s own gear based on his unique story and culture. The vegetation is important as well, in case that your race lives in an area with high temperatures, your gear is more generous than gear from Races who lives in cold areas. That actually makes sense, but in many MMOs it’s usual to use the same gear for all races. The last decisive for your gear is your origin. When you lives in the slums outside of the city, you wear pretty old armor, but since you are getting better off your gear becomes more valuable from time to time.

Your gear reflects your origin

You start as a common civilian, but with a lot of trainees you will gradually grow into a strong warrior. So for the early levels you have to start with common clothes, but once you’ve started to level up, collect achievements, experience etc. your gear becomes more sophisticated.

It’s pretty difficult to create gear which looks realistic, but since Bless is a Fantasy MMO it’s even more difficult to find the perfect middle between reality and fantasy. The Bless developers team tried it’s best to design some pretty neat costumes.

Female Characters Costumes are designed to reflect the characters beauty. Some people might complain that the armor of females are to “light” but don’t worry, there are also some awesome full body armors.

There are 10 Races in Bless and a lot of equipment that is based on your race, gender, occupation and your environment. Even when there are some designs which looks like the same for every race, it still looks different on female and male characters.

There are 5 types of armors in Bless Online. Every armor class has it’s own benefits and disadvantages. The Robe Armor for example if crafted with magic, very variable but weak when it comes to your defense. The absolute contrary to the massive Armor which is being used by the Berserker for example.

The Paladin can use the ability ”Impact of the hammer” which summons images of your weapon to destroy your enemies with a huge AoE attack. The Paladin actually uses a Mace as Weapon, but with the judgment of god he can cast disruptive skills.

The Mace is one of the most brutal one-handed weapons. Together with the divine power of god it can deals melee and range damage.

The Bow is pretty light and for that reason very easy to handle. You can kill your enemys from the distance with your poisoned arrows.

No weapon is faster and deadlier in the melee combat than a dagger. Even when it’s not as big as a sword, the dagger can defeat his foe within seconds.

 Your imagination is the most critical weapon. The most powerful weapon is the magical staff, which turns your imagination into endless magical power.

The Scythe is directly connected to the death. It’s the perfect tool to defeat your enemys from a short distance and also gives you the possibility to block incoming attacks.
