Before attempting Blademaster progression, you must have a base Warlord class (or equivalent orderly super class) and access to multiple alt accounts. Without alts, the grip requirement becomes extremely time-consuming.
Core Requirements Table
| Requirement | Details | Priority |
|---|---|---|
| Base Class | Warlord (Orderly Super) | Mandatory |
| Grips Needed | 150 (155 recommended for safety) | Critical |
| Alt Accounts | 8+ recommended for batch farming | High |
| Silver Reserve | 500+ per alt for swords and trainers | High |
| Potions | Ice Protection, Liquid Wisdom, Health | Medium |
Preparation and Alt Setup
Efficient Blademaster farming starts with proper alt preparation. Each alt needs to be set up with weapons, orderly quests, and mana training before heading to the trainer. The goal is to maximize the value of every single alt account you bring through the progression pipeline.
Process multiple alts simultaneously. Running eight alts at once through the same quest lines drastically reduces total time compared to doing them one by one.
Alt Preparation Steps
| Step | Action | Location | Silver Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Give alt 10 silver for sword | Desert 4 | 10 |
| 2 | Force chest points | Desert 4 | 0 |
| 3 | Drop Ice Protection and potions | Orisall | 0 |
| 4 | Complete orderly quest chain | Orisall | 1 |
| 5 | Train mana on snails/shriers | Snail area | 0 |
| 6 | Pay Warlord trainer | Warlord trainer | 480 |
Potion Kit
- Ice Protection for survivability
- Liquid Wisdom for orderly XP
- Health Potions for sustained training
Silver Budget
- 10 silver per alt for initial sword
- 1 silver for quest activation
- 480 silver for Warlord trainer
Mana Training
- Spawn 30 bounds in snail area
- Punch to get mana
- Train before despawning shriers
Orderly Quest Chain (No-Jail Method)
There are two primary methods for gaining orderly XP: the jail method and the quest method. The quest method is recommended for players who find jailing tedious or lack sufficient alt accounts. This approach involves completing a specific sequence of NPC quests across multiple zones.
The quest method yields 45 orderly without needing to jail alts. The Liquid Wisdom quest adds 5 extra orderly and 100 silver per alt, making it highly recommended even if you skip jails.
Orderly Quest Route
| Quest Step | Location | NPC Type | Reward |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tundra Quest | Tundra 3 | NPC on wall | Day transition |
| Shore Quest 1 | Shore 2 | Male NPC | Progression |
| Shore Quest 2 | Shore 4 | Female NPC | Turnup quest unlock |
| Turnup Quest | Shore area | Female NPC | Orderly XP |
| Flower Light Quest | Flower Light | Female NPC | 40 silver, 5 orderly |
Tundra 3 Setup
Run to Tundra 3 and locate the NPC on the wall. Talk to them to initiate the day transition. Pre-dayfind your alt for about 15 minutes beforehand to ensure the timing aligns properly.
Shore Quest Chain
Visit Shore 2 and talk to the male NPC, then proceed to Shore 4 to speak with the female NPC. Complete the turnup quest that unlocks after the dialogue sequence.
Flower Light Completion
Travel to Flower Light and speak with the female NPC. She rewards 40 silver and 5 orderly. By this point, you should have reached 45 orderly total.
Trainer Visit
Run to the trainer with your 45 orderly. Talk to the trainer to advance your class. Bind your alt twice and proceed to K for the Uber progression phase.
Uber Progression in K
Once your alt reaches K (the Gaia realm), the Uber progression phase begins. This is where you push the alt from a super class to Uber status. The process is remarkably fast, taking approximately 3 minutes per account when executed correctly.
In K, complete two quests instead of spire runs for maximum efficiency. The Griffin quest at the mountains and the Golem quest in the desert are the fastest pair to knock out.
K Quest Route
| Quest | Location | Target | Reward |
|---|---|---|---|
| Quest 1 | Jungle 2 | Griffin at mountains | Tier 1 Purity |
| Quest 2 | Jungle 2 | Golem in desert | Quest completion |
| Trainer Visit | Desert 2 | Lighthouse trainer | Uber unlock |
| Forge Step | Forge 4 | Aura application | Uber activation |
After completing both quests in K, head to the trainer in the Desert 2 lighthouse. Once the trainer applies the aura, travel to Forge 4 to finalize the Uber transformation. Set your spawn point nearby for convenience.
Grip Farming Strategy
The core of Blademaster progression revolves around accumulating 150 grips. The grip farming method described here maximizes efficiency by using a knock-and-grip technique that extracts extra value from each alt account.
150 grips is the confirmed threshold for Blademaster. Anything below 150 carries a very high risk of not unlocking the class. Aim for 155 grips as a safety buffer.
Grip Method Breakdown
| Phase | Action | Grips Gained | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Initial Kill | Kill your alt | 0 | Sets up the knock |
| First Grip | Grip the killed alt | 1 | Standard grip |
| Percent Down | Alt grips you once | 0 | Resets your percent |
| Second Grip | Knock alt, then grip | 1 | Extra grip per alt |
| Repeat | Cycle through all alts | 2 per alt | Most efficient loop |
Initial Setup
Take your main account and the alt to a safe location. Kill the alt first, then grip them immediately for your first grip count.
Percent Down
Have the alt grip your main account once. This brings your percent down to zero, allowing you to continue wiping without risking your own progress.
Extra Grip Extraction
Knock the alt account again and grip them on your main. This gives you a second grip from the same alt, effectively doubling your grip yield per account.
Batch Repetition
Repeat this two-grip cycle with every alt account. With 8 alts, you accumulate 16 grips per batch run, bringing you closer to the 150 grip target efficiently.
Weapon Choice and Necro XP Efficiency
Your weapon choice during grip farming significantly impacts Necro XP gain. The data shows that cheaper weapons actually provide better XP efficiency, making the grind more cost-effective.
Using a bronze sword instead of a Mythril sword saves money and grants more XP per grip. Bronze reaches Sigil Knight Commander at 29 streaks, while Mythril requires 34 streaks for the same result.
Weapon XP Comparison
| Weapon | Streaks to Sigil Knight Commander | Cost | XP Efficiency | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bronze Sword | 29 streaks | Very low | High | Best choice |
| Mythril Sword | 34 streaks | High | Lower | Not recommended |
Bronze Sword Strategy
- 29 streaks to Sigil Knight Commander
- Minimal silver investment
- Better XP per grip ratio
- Ideal for bulk alt farming
Mythril Sword Strategy
- 34 streaks to Sigil Knight Commander
- Expensive material cost
- Slower progression overall
- Only use if bronze is unavailable
Progression Checklist
Blademaster Unlock Requirements:
- Reach Warlord (Orderly Super class) on main account
- Prepare 8+ alt accounts with swords and potions
- Complete orderly quest chain (45 orderly) on each alt
- Train mana on snails/shriers for each alt
- Progress each alt to Uber in K (2 quests + trainer)
- Accumulate 150-155 grips using knock-and-grip method
- Use bronze swords for optimal Necro XP efficiency
- Confirm grip count before attempting Blademaster unlock
Before triggering the Blademaster unlock, double-check your grip count. The confirmed threshold is exactly 150 grips. If you have 155, you have a safe margin. Anything below 150 is a significant risk of wasting all your progress.
FAQ
Q: How many grips do I need for Rogue Lineage Blademaster?
The confirmed requirement is exactly 150 grips. However, it is strongly recommended to aim for 155 grips as a safety buffer, since anything below 150 carries a very high risk of not unlocking the class.
Q: Is the jail method or quest method better for orderly XP?
Both methods work. The quest method is recommended for players who find jailing tedious or lack enough alt accounts. The quest chain yields 45 orderly without needing jails, and the Liquid Wisdom quest adds 5 extra orderly plus 100 silver per alt.
Q: Should I use a bronze or Mythril sword for grip farming?
Bronze swords are significantly more efficient. They reach Sigil Knight Commander at 29 streaks compared to Mythril's 34 streaks. Bronze saves money and provides better XP per grip, making it the optimal choice for bulk farming.
Q: How long does Uber progression take per alt in K?
Once inside K, Uber progression takes approximately 3 minutes per account. You need to complete two quests (Griffin at mountains and Golem in desert), visit the trainer in the Desert 2 lighthouse, then travel to Forge 4 to finalize the Uber transformation.
Q: Can I get Blademaster without alt accounts?
While technically possible by gripping other players, it is extremely time-consuming and impractical without alt accounts. Using 8 or more alts with the knock-and-grip method is the fastest and most reliable approach to reaching 150 grips.
