Season 10!

Sunday, April 2nd, 2023



 

 

 

We are pleased to announce Season 10!

As with the last Season, you will earn points for doing challenges, the points increase a progress bar, and when you reach checkpoints you unlock rewards. Both Bloodlines and Legends activities are included in the challenges. The rewards are a wide mix including but not limited to: Bloodlines Products, Legends Products, Metrics, Resources, Rare Textures and Gift Cards.

The Seasons HUD is available for free in vendors at the landing areas in our regions and we’ll be doing a blast-out delivery to all current Bloodlines players. To be clear, you don’t have to have the HUD on to be earning progress, but you do need to wear it to unlock and claim your rewards.

For full reference information, check out the Seasons Guide. Some highlights are below:

SEASON PASS

There are plenty of checkpoints and rewards by default, but there are also bonus valuable items hidden behind ‘locked’ checkpoints. These can be unlocked by purchasing a Season Pass, which can be done either with L$ or with Season Pass Tokens which can be earned along the Season path of rewards.

REWARD OPTIONS

Certain rewards will have choices, for instance if one of the rewards is a Vial, when you collect it, you choose which kind of vial you want: Blood, Lumen, Human, Ether, or Ichor. Other rewards will have alternatives. For example, say a reward is the coffin, but you already own the coffin, you’ll be given the option to get some metrics instead.

METRIC CACHES & METRIC RESERVES

“Metric Reserves” can be given at various points, and these are metrics that you unlock immediately and can access at Refill Stations.

“Metric Caches” can be given at various points, and these are metrics that you store up and unlock if or when you finally complete the season progress bar.

CURRENT SEASON DURATION

The current season, Season Ten, will run from midnight (SL time) on April 2nd to midnight on May 31st, 2023.

Happy achieving!

*As with all of our releases, we do not award retroactive points or achievements. Progress on Seasons will begin tallying from the time of release onward. 

**Please note, the Season Pass is not an in-world delivery, it will show as active on your Bloodlines profile page once you have purchased it. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

April Fools! Season 10 Delay

Saturday, April 1st, 2023

Greetings Everyone!

Please forgive the delay to the start of Season 10 – it is coming, but it will begin 48 hours later than usual, at midnight on April 2nd. We’ll post on the blog / homepage as soon as the new season is live.

Please hold off buying Season Passes until then. If you accidentally do so, just file a ticket alerting us and we’ll make sure when the season kicks in that your pass is active:

http://slbloodlines.com/support

Also, to clarify: while any achievements done in the next 48 hours will still count towards Soul War / Legends War / Medals etc., you will not earn season points for any game activities until the season is live.

We appreciate your patience, and look forward to having a great Spring season with you all!

 

The Gift of Giving

Sunday, December 18th, 2022

For the next month we’ve added a Collectible Texture delivery to every race HUD purchase. If you gift (or purchase for yourself) a Rage, Thirst, Virtue, Ascent or Torment HUD you’ll receive the correlating texture. The giveaways end on January 18th.

*The textures are delivered straight into your Rare Texture Library on your profile and do not come with a paint can delivery. You should be able to load them either straight onto a container or into an empty paint can in-world.

***If you make a HUD purchase with a gift card, the texture delivery does not work. We’ll work on updating this, but for now please be aware!
