Ah, s***, here we go again! It's time to level up the new Zen Archer class, now live in Blade and Soul with the release of the Storm of Arrows update. If you recall, you could get a free Blade & Soul gift pack to celebrate the Zen Archer class announcement.
This update brings said Archer class, but also introduces several new content for you to tackle. There's a couple of new dungeons for 6 players and 12 players, new equipment and plenty of quality of life changes and improvements.
