Blade and Soul: Blade Master Guide (Tanking tips, DPS Rotation and I-Frames)

On recent skill patch you can just use X as stun, since it applies double stun now and use skill 2 move 1. Also Blade Echo changed, it is available only after using 2 in Draw Stance.

ty nice tips but u could explane more for lightining build plz and ty

[@shydox1171]

It's long time ago but you forgot a step in Burst at the end after X+V +16RMB you can TAB + C + 7 RMB again

[@Fuvari]

Yeah I forgot to use that in the video. BM is one if not the most customizable in his rotation and gear (badges etc.) so there is a lot of different variations that BM can use.

[@knight317]

PvE Build?

[@Fuvari]

Yes

[@XoreisBlood]

So got a question on light bm starts... what where the buttons you pushed... My guess is on 1st one it was just V>C>x>2 into canceling but on the second one i cant figure out how you did the lmb dash and got c to activate at the same time almost or am I just not seeing it clearly?

[@Fuvari]

Yeah I prbably should have explained this in a better way. You need to sprint > V > and LMB dash, it will glitch a bit so you will need to either spam C staright after the dash or turn around and then use C. And the first one was V > C > 2 then either 4 or Tab and ani-cancel. These 2 engages doesn't have much difference but the one with the dash looks cooler. Also the V > C > 2 might not work for some bosses because they might jump on you straight away when you use V.

[@gabruiz8456]

how come i dont have that star looking skill

[@Fuvari]

Its a Hongmoon skill (HM) you can get it by using Secret Hongmoon Technique Volume 4 (PvE) buy it of a market (F5) or try your luck in dropping it from a dungeon but I don't remember which dungeon. Also you can eat Big Zen Bean (PvP) you need 4500 Zen Beans to buy it of a PvP Vendor.

[@gabruiz8456]

Fuvari thanks a lot

[@mesho8575]

very nice, I was looking for rotation tips for my BM, nicely done!

[@evertonlordkimboo]

Thank you taught me better than the videos of my country.

[@therealXoranUs]

Im 940 ap BM and had no idea of blade echo :D great video

[@leksolee6135]

Is lightning bm playable with 150-170 ping? Or warlock would be better? (not interested in other classes) Great tutorial btw!

[@Fuvari]

WL would be better, since BM ani-cancels, which requires about 100ms. You still could do it but I think you will have much less DPS than with WL on 150-170ms

[@leksolee6135]

@@Fuvari Thank you! I thought the same, though WL too is not ping friendly but still better than BM.

[@leksolee6135]

Ehh, I will miss these swords))) I think developers dont care how many potential players they are losing cause game is not ping-friendly. And also they tie my country to Russian server though my ping to Europe is twice less. Probably uninstalling the game and going back to my planes in WarThunder be my finally decision))

[@PhantomTools]

Why would you take Stun with 30s CD instead of Threat with 9s CD for tanking when it has single stun and no joint tech o.o

[@Fuvari]

Because the guide is a bit outdated, I've left a note about this in the description

[@weldo2093]

I'm new to the game, so my question might look stupid, and the answer is probably obvious but i don't see it. How do you not lose focus when using flicker etc in draw stance ?

[@Fuvari]

The place I am in on the video called Hongmoon Training Room (F12) you have infinite focus there. To not lose focus outside that room, you need to combine (once you get these skills) Z, 2 and C to recover focus.

[@danidino1645]

Hey, nice video 👌 I just have a question about the badge. Isnt it better to get the magnum badge cuz it gives a confragration effect for 2 sec.? Or are u not using the fire build?🤔

[@Fuvari]

There is a lot of different Badge combinations and I don't know which is the best. I use Lightning and Blue Moon Badge otherwise I run out of focus because I don't have any gear that recovers focus. I'm not planning to gear up my BM so I will just leave it as it is, but for others it would be better to get like Magnum or Transcendence Badge and not waste on Blue Moon.

[@Shinrebushiro]

how can I protect me about attack on area of the boss with blade master???

[@Fuvari]

What do you exactly mean, block?

[@Shinrebushiro]

@@Fuvari yeah. block the attack on area , example with my gunner I use the skill deadlock .

[@Fuvari]

Just press 1, that is a block, also read your spell descritions 👍

[@Tony-oh]

after hitting tab, I can only use rmb 6 times instead of 7

[@Fuvari]

Because your ping is not low enough. About 120ms-140ms what is needed at minimum to be able to do 7 RMBs after Tab.

[@mateogaviria9743]

Im new in the game and I think this is by far the most new player friendly guide I don´t know how updated his guide is tho, is this light bm rotation still good? fire and light are still even dps wise? any recommendations? Thnx for the guide btw

[@Fuvari]

The principle is still the same for both elements, get Fire/Lightning buff (depending on your element, by using for example Tab) and then spam RMB (for fire) or ani-cancel LMB with RMB (for Light). There were only a few chances, for example X now does double Stun so you don't need to have another Stun on 2 in Basic Stance, or now C in Draw Stance gives Fire/Lightning Buff. And BM is still one of the strongest classes. Just pick the element that you like to play with and stick with it. Not sure which one does more DPS though. Also I've quit BnS so can't make an update XD

[@mateogaviria9743]

thanks buddy :)

[@sexcannonmusic284]

2 is no longer a joint attack

[@walterhidalgo2508]

i can reset my skils to change fire to lighting?

[@Fuvari]

Yes, you can reset as many times as you want

[@evanlimarta]

hello! i wanna ask some questions about BM,, 1. for fire build,,because of my ping i can only spam 4RMB from my lunar slash ( 5RMB if u count the normal RMB that has CD) ..do u think i still can BM at NA with this condition? 2. for lightning build, i can still timing the ani-cancel in the right time,, should it be LMB>RMB>repeat or LMB>RMB>LMB>repeat? somehow i can see after u do RMB there's a short animation of LMB, and then u repeat the pattern again thankyou brother~

[@Fuvari]

If you have this high ping, your DPS will be like on 40% less, +bm needs to tank, evade and block attacks which might be really hard with high ping. If you want to play BM play it, but people might flame you for low DPS and bad tanking (cause they are toxic). In lightning it should be RMB>LMB (or LMB>RMB doesnt really matter) I had another accidental LMB because of ping spikes, which shouldn't be there.

[@evanlimarta]

thanks for replying >,< i think i'll try with lighting for a while , i really love BM , they look so cool T^T

[@put_your_grasses_on.]

I can only do 1rmb after 4lmbs. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

[@Fuvari]

Your ping might be too high and it doesn't let you to do more RMBs or your skills have wrong move set up (skill build)

[@put_your_grasses_on.]

Fuvari I think it screws up because I spam the buttons a bit too fast. I got zero sense of rhythm. xD

[@Fuvari]

Don't worry you will get the rhythm eventually. Just keep practicing.

[@DUONGminhotakutimeandanime]

where is your skin wepon ???

[@Fuvari]

I got it from Duelist Bundle in F10. But I'm not sure if its still there (the bundle is but don't know about the skin)

[@unes7930]

nice guide what is that wpn skin ?

[@Fuvari]

I forgot the name of it but it came with the Duelist Bundle from F10. I don't know if that weapon is still in that bundle

[@unes7930]

kk ty anyway

[@nkp2416]

What is a good ping and fps for lighting

[@Fuvari]

Ping probably 100ms or lower. 30 FPS or higher. Well this is whats needed for me, for other players this might not be enough for smooth gameplay.

[@Takaroku.]

I don't know it that's even possible to get right now. I had it about a month ago though...

[@kcwong6021]

I cant ani cancel honed slash with flicker that fast anymore. Has it been patched?

[@Fuvari]

It can't be patched because it is game mechanic, probably you are doing it wrong or your ping is too high.

[@kcwong6021]

how much ping required to pull this off?

[@Fuvari]

I have around 100ms but the lower the better. Probably 150ms+ is too high.

[@kcwong6021]

i c. I have 120 ish. Ty for the reply

[@serjimadif8921]

plz can u put a list of skill series

[@Fuvari]

You mean the buttons to press? They are already in the video. Or you mean the actual names of the skills that you need to use?

[@serjimadif8921]

the buttons cz i have a lot of problems to press bouttons fast need a list to use maybe macro to be fast and ty

[@Fuvari]

The list is already in the video, but if you really need it here I will write it here as well. *In Fire 24/7 Rotation that you need to do through the whole fight - Tab > 7xRMB > 4xLMB > RMB > Repeat *In Lightning 24/7 Rotation - Tab/C in Draw Stance/2 > Ani-cancel RMB and LMB > Repeat *For both when Flock (V in Basic Stance) is available - V > C > X > Tab > 24/7 Rotation > C and X again when available > continue DPS *Use 4 when you can and Z for focus recovery (but not when you have Aransu Gear) Thats kinda it, all the other skills are used to survive, evade attacks etc.

[@serjimadif8921]

ty so much

[@ultimategodgohan804]

can you make lightining build?Thank you

[@Fuvari]

The information I have about Lightning build in the video isn't enough?

[@ultimategodgohan804]

I mean show only lighthing build.I saw only flames in this video

[@Fuvari]

I start showing Lightning build on 2:13 timer in video

[@ultimategodgohan804]

oki thanks :)

[@Kittycat987]

HELP how come i can only use rmb 5 times sometimes just 4 its always ani cancel for me please help

[@Fuvari]

It's probably a ping problem, your ping is too high thats why you can't do as much RMBs

[@Kittycat987]

Fuvari I think it's also because I don't have the magnum stone that's why I can't spam the RMB as well as the ping.

[@Fuvari]

Magnum Badge doesn't have to do anything with this, it just makes your skill 4 (Searing Slash) give you buff to spam RMB

[@Kittycat987]

Fuvari make sense so basically without the magnum you can spam rmb 8 times without a problem?

[@Fuvari]

By using Tab skill you can spam up to 7 RMBs. Blade Master has lots of different Soul Badge combinations, Courage/Magnum/Trans its only your choice of how you going to play with it

[@joshbuch5198]

horrible music... just absolutely horrible.

[@Fuvari]

Thank you for your opinion, hopefully you like music on other videos ^^

[@AlexAlex-ww9pf]

the dude made a BM mini guide, and all you have to say is horrible music...

[@7Roxer]

josh buch I thought the music was great...

[@danieloh566]

typical attention seeker.... instead of just insulting how about suggesting music after comment?

[@Gillian_FFXIV]

Very informative yet simple video. Not too long and not too short. I was also able to learn even more from your fighting style and I paid close attention to the skills you were using & in which order, under which effects one could be used, the timing of your blocks and dodges, etc etc. As a person coming from KFM to BM, gotta say that it's more fun than I thought it would be.
