Lineage M: The Thunder God Class Reboot is Coming!
Hello!
I'm influencer Park Han-ryang.
The long-awaited reboot of the Thunder God class is finally becoming a reality. NCSoft's flagship MMORPG, 'Lineage M,' has announced the large-scale 'RISING STORM' update coming on June 18th and has begun pre-registration.
Thunder God Reboot: The Power of Lightning, Finally Realized
Tranquility, peace, and rest end today.
Now, into the realm of the gods!
The core of the 'RISING STORM' update is the Thunder God class reboot. This reboot will reinvent the Thunder God with new skills and a new combat style. A female Thunder God character will also be added, allowing for more diverse gameplay. In Lineage M, the Thunder God was, as the name suggests, a 'God of Lightning,' symbolizing a swift and stylish fighting class. However, when actually playing, it lacked the impact and feeling of power that the concept suggested. Even though the skill effects were flashy, the utility and damage in actual combat were low, leading to comments like, "It looks good, but doesn't feel good to play."
The addition of a 'female Thunder God character' is particularly noteworthy in this reboot. Since the official illustration was revealed, users have been pouring out reactions on social media and online communities. This female Thunder God is not just a simple change in appearance; it's becoming a catalyst for bringing back the 'Thunder God of memories' in Lineage M. Detailed information on the Thunder God reboot will be released on June 11th, but the anticipation is already high with what's been revealed so far.
First of all, the redefinition of the Thunder God class's attack rhythm is noticeable. With faster speed and explosive burst damage, immersion in combat is expected to increase significantly. Also, a skill set revamp has been announced. Skills that have been underutilized and practically abandoned will be reworked, allowing for a useful skill configuration in actual combat. As a result, the range of strategies is expected to expand not only in PVP but also in PVE.
Lastly, the damage expectations for the Thunder God class in hunting and boss raids are also expected to increase significantly. Internally, it is being evaluated as an upgrade that will allow it to return to a solid main position in the current meta, rather than a simple balance adjustment, so let's look forward to it.
NCSoft is holding a pre-registration event for the 'RISING STORM' update until June 17th (Mon). Anyone can participate in this pre-registration through the Lineage M official website, and upon participation, you can receive three types of exclusive coupons that can be used in the Legacy World, Talking Island & Windawd Server, and Gludio & Gracia Server, respectively. Through the coupon, users can choose one of two rewards according to their play style: 'Bella's Supply Box,' which supports actual combat, or 'Bella's Growth Support Box,' which specializes in character development. First, if you choose Bella's Supply Box, you will receive essential items for combat, such as rune conversion stones and guardian stones.
The Legacy World will receive a 'Top-Grade Draw Pack Selection Box,' and the Reboot (Talking Island/Windawd/Gludio/Gracia) servers will receive a 'Mysterious Draw Pack Selection Box.' On the other hand, if you choose Bella's Growth Support Box, it includes equipment boxes from the Aden Knights, 'Bella's Growth Emblem,' which grants growth effects up to level 80, and 'Bella's Growth Scroll,' which opens up various missions. This is an ideal choice for new and returning users or those who want to level up quickly. In addition, pre-registration rewards include 'Bella's Lucky Cube,' which provides major consumables in the game once a day for 60 days, and a special item 'Thundermoor's Jewel,' which provides a damage reduction +2 effect when held. These two are common rewards for all pre-registration participants and are practical benefits that can be obtained just by logging in.
Lineage M is also holding an official channel subscription event ahead of the 'RISING STORM' update. This event is an opportunity to receive powerful in-game rewards simply by subscribing, and the participation method is very simple. The event period runs from Tuesday, June 4, 2025, to Monday, June 17, 2025, at 11:59 PM. During this period, simply add the Lineage M official KakaoTalk channel as a friend and subscribe to the official YouTube channel to complete event participation. Participants can then verify their event participation and register for rewards from 5:00 PM on June 18th to 4:59 AM on July 16th. You must complete reward registration within this period to receive the actual items, so be sure to check.
The rewards include 1 Guardian Stone, 1 Blessed Holy Water (Large), 3 Comprehensive Coin Selection Boxes, 300 Dragon Diamonds (Drada), and 1,000 Superior Blessed Powder. These items are practical and helpful for both combat and growth, so you can gain a solid advantage at the start just by subscribing to the channels. Also, by subscribing to the channels, you can receive Lineage M-related news such as updates, events, and TJ coupon distribution the fastest, and you can automatically participate in various channel-exclusive reward events that will be held in the future.
If you're a Lineage M user, you know how painful even a single failure can be. That's why the name 'TJ Coupon' makes your heart beat faster. Two types of TJ coupons are returning once again in this 'RISING STORM' update. The TJ coupons revealed this time are as follows:
General Equipment Restoration Coupon - Restores equipment that failed to be enhanced, Skill Synthesis Restoration Coupon - Restores skill cards that failed to be synthesized. In particular, these coupons can be acquired through the 'TJ Coupon Gift Box,' which can be purchased with Adena in the event store, and coupon use is possible from the June 18th update. Coupons can be easily checked in 'Store → Event Tab,' and the usable date is clearly announced so that users are not confused, so be sure to check the date. Another important point is that these TJ coupons can be used equally on the new servers Gludio/Gracia. Many users may be worried, 'Can't I use TJ coupons on the new server?' but this time, TJ coupons will be applied under the same conditions on all servers without such restrictions, so that new server users can enjoy equal opportunities in their first return or new character's growth.
The 'Mysterious Sky Island' event, which runs from June 4 to June 18, 2025, is a special growth dungeon for characters level 30-59. When entering the dungeon, you can acquire experience, Adena, and Einhasad's Blessing at once, and its high utilization as limited content that can be used for 7 hours a week. Tickets can be purchased with Adena in the event store, *10 sets can be purchased for 50,000 Adena (once per account). The dungeon is set as a Safety Zone, so you can grow your character without burden. In particular, if you are a returning or new user, you can quickly secure combat power through this opportunity.
You shouldn't miss the 'Increased Drop of Black Scales' event, which runs during the same period. The drop rate of black scales, which can be obtained when hunting in Albino Basin until June 11, is doubled, and the item is considered a core material used for various crafting and exchanges. If you want to collect resources in a short period of time, take advantage of this opportunity. A special push event commemorating Memorial Day is also being held until June 6. You can receive buff effects and high-end items just by logging in, so it's a good idea to log in without missing a single day. It's a limited event that provides short but powerful benefits.
In this update, the equipment to which the 'Shining Equipment Protection Scroll' is applied will be expanded. From now on, in addition to general shining T-shirts/pauldrons, you can use the scroll on Black Cat's T-shirt and Azure Dragon's Pauldron. The amount of scroll consumption varies depending on the enhancement stage and can be protected up to +9. However, the use is limited to hero-grade equipment, so be careful before purchasing. In addition, Lara's Mysterious Box, Rosemary's Ticket Supply Box / Skill Supply Box (separated by server), Pre-Celebration Special Equipment Package (existing/reboot server only), Rosemary's Growth Potion Package (sold until June 25), etc., are designed with a configuration optimized for improving combat ability as well as supporting the early growth of new users. Since the purchase limit varies by server, be sure to check your account and server conditions before making a purchase.
From June 4th to June 18th, a promotion is also underway to craft the 'Journey's Ring II (Event)' and increase the amount of experience earned by registering it in the collection. It can be crafted up to +8, and step-by-step crafting is possible using 'Journey's Token (Event).' The collection effect is applied until the maintenance on July 9th, and the experience gain rate can be increased by more than 20%, making it very meaningful content for hunting-focused users. As you can see from these pre-events, Lineage M is providing various growth, reward, and system opportunities at the same time ahead of the large-scale update. It's a time when not only new and returning users but also existing users can efficiently prepare and acquire resources. If you log in now, you can get far ahead in the June 18th update. Now that every day is an opportunity, grow on the 'Mysterious Sky Island' and accumulate rewards with 'Black Scales.'
There are many events going on, so
Be sure to take care of pre-registration!
This 'RISING STORM' is not just a simple update. It's a moment when the honor of a collapsed class is restored, the revival of a buried main character, and Lineage M becomes the 'center of change' once again. At the center is the Thunder God class reboot, which has been long awaited. The Thunder God was once shunned as a 'class that was only cool in concept.' But now, with a rhythm that combines speed and explosiveness, a skill set that works in actual combat, and immersion completed with the appearance of the female Thunder God. Truly, it is returning as a class that is ready to be taken out as the main character again.
