Dear players,
The servers of NARAKA: BLADEPOINT will be suspended for maintenance from Sep. 23, 2024 23:00 (UTC) to Sep. 24, 2024 04:00 (UTC). We suggest you log out in advance and enter the game again after the maintenance.
The details for this update are as follows:
Brand New Content
I. Alliance
In Quick Match and Ranked Mode (below the Asura rank), when teammates leave the battle early in a multi-player team, the last remaining player may use the "Alliance" tag in the Bag page to join forces with other players. If the requirements are met, the player initiating the Alliance will form a new team with other players for that match. The requirements for Alliance:
Spend 7,500 Dark Tide Coins;
The Alliance must be initiated before the fifth Shadow Corruption starts in the match;
Each player can initiate at most one Alliance per match, and each match can only have a certain number of Alliances.
The Alliance feature is disabled when fewer than 4 teams are left in the match;
When you are in the Realm of Yang, the Alliance process will be paused; when the Realm of Yang ends, it will resume.
When an Alliance is completed:
You will exit the Ultimate state if you are in one when the Alliance is activated.
When you successfully activate an Alliance, any active Bounty, Protection, and Valiant Challenge
Quests relating to you or your alliance member(s) will be canceled. The current version allows Alliances of up to 2 heroes.
