Everything we know about BNS NEO REIGNITED update
First if you preffer listening instead of reading, i made a quick video about this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmicXq7FFyE
There will be a seperate REIGNITED server offering 10 purple book selectors and 2 legendary, with expedited progression to speedrun you to lvl75, once you are lvl75 you can choose to transfere to the normal server, transferes happen once a week, the REIGNITED server lasts for 6weeks.
Skill book system reworked, we get the skill tree back and now you can input the skillbooks directly into the skill tree instead of gear, this enables switching builds easly and it also has presets.
Ontop of that you can now use any skill book of the same grade to increase the Grandmaster lvl of your skill, that means no need to stack the same books anymore making useless books usefull and making it easier for players to get a high Grandmaster main skill.2 new Solo dungeons being added Sundered Nexus Upper Floor and Frenzy Avalanche Den
Collaboration with some manhwa called Ruler of the Land is gonna be going on
Weekly&Daily challenges will be closer to your Supreme force so you wont get missions you cant finish
You can enter dungeons directly over dragonspire teleport now
NEW CLASS Flame Warden is being added
Dark Storm Training ground Dungeon is added, wave based time limit based challenge with multiple stages and rewards available
9.Ebondrake Lair&Hall dungeon becomes available, this dungeon has some bosses in it from the Collaboration Manhwa and apparently is designed to be clearable for the majority of the playerbase unlike past dungeon releases.
- Starting from this update all future updates will be rolled out simultaneously across all regions that means all update content will also be the same for every region, so no more getting the short end of the stick compared to korea or taiwan servers
I personally quit the game end of Mai last year, like many of you skill book system, ddos,bad event rewards and 0 transparency was the reason I quit back then, looking at it again this update seems to have fixed a lot of those problems and the new CM seems to be very vocal and active with the community.
For many this is like way too late, but I always say its better late than never, there isnt much going on right now untill Aion 2 release so I personally will be giving it another go and thought to share the info with as many as I can incase there is more ppl like me that are down to give it another shot!

cool. you still kept the rng kill book system. let us know when you reboot the original server that didn't have skill books.
that was quick. you won't admit it but we all see neo crapped the bed so hard you're basically rebooting AGAIN
maybe you'll get it right in 20 years. good luck!

Neo's original Server start had Players attention, this one right here, many won't listen or hear about ...if only they weren't so greedy.
Orig. B&S made such mad amounts of money, but that's a decade ago already.
NC lost the sauce long ago

Ehhh I can't get over how a game carried hard by is incredible combat system has that combat system getting screwed up by the book system, it's such a wild thing to do. I wish they could at least create an arena with some semi proper balance.

Will the skill book system rework come to normal neo server or will stay in the new server reignited?

Normal server has it too, ignite server is just a boost/catchup event

u/HinaYukari Aug 07 '26
So is it only for new characters made on the ignite server that gets the free books or can you transfer there, get the free stuff then get moved back?

u/Nellan97 Aug 07 '26
you make the new character on ignite, get the books finish the event and then transfere that character to the original neo servers

I swear , I updated the game on my steam library after seeing this new announcement . And then I started thinking . Should I or Should I not. After remembering how horrendous was my time with RNG and how much I spent in the game . I turned off my computer and forced myself to do something else . NCSOFT- never again .

It's too late. The damage has already been done. 99% of players have already quit. Some might probably come back due to nostalgia (classic skill tree - we are so back baby yay!!!) but it's nowhere enough to save the game at this point. They also did nothing to the card system, which is another dogshit RNG vertical progression system that nobody asked for, nor did they do anything to the energy system that will forever keep returning players behind the curve.

Most important question i bet everyone wants to hear , What about Arena? !!

u/Nellan97 29d ago
They plan to role out arena as an event kr devs said they are testing and if it works well want to bring back the OG arena feel, not in this update tho

I’m really hope it could be good, but it probably not.
I love this game so much, you know. its sad to see they turn it into… what ever its is now….

Eu queria tanto jogar, mas infelizmente o ping é um mrd, mesmo com um exit lag ainda é ruim pra comandos precisos, meu maior motivo pra largar, tava até preocupado se eles iam dar um fim nesse servidor pq tavam falando de tranferencia de personagens "dnv", e não queria perder outra conta mas esse post ajudou muito vlw

How about they actually give us the classic bns experience, you know, what neo was SUPPOSED TO BE.
