Blade & Soul - Oblivion (Gon Outfit) Mod

I remember it to be end of last year when I made the Yun Oblivion mod. It does not seem to be very popular (or is it because it is too difficult to obtain it back at that time?) and I eventually forgot about making the Oblivion mod for Gon and Jin. A viewer eventually saw the Yun post, about a month ago, and requested for the Gon version, so here it is, the Gon Oblivion. 😃

Back when I made the Yun Oblivion mod, it is still not easily obtainable because it only drops in Hard mode of the dungeon. After almost a year and with the release of new contents, the Desolate Tomb dungeon is once again fading into oblivion, like the Tomb of Exiled dungeon before it. With these factors, the Hard mode of the dungeon has now been taken out and items that only drop in Hard mode are now available in normal mode. Thus, making the Oblivion much more available to players. But then again, players will still need Lady Luck to smile on them, as the chance for it to drop is still low. 😥

Since I have touched on the back story of dungeons in the Yun post, I will get straight to the outfit here.

When comparing between the Gon and Yun Oblivion, we can see that they are very much alike. However, on the chest portion of the Yun's version, we can see a pair of crossed strings connecting the top of the bra to the neck, while for the Gon's version, the pair of strings is missing. Also, the glowing orange crystal for Gon is larger in size. You can verify it in the image below.

Now, let us take a closer look at the original Gon Oblivion below.

Front View - Original Outfit
The design is mostly similar, donning a full grey latex body suit, which reveals the top portion of the torso, as the base layer. The tight fitting body suit is enhanced by a pair of long boots, leg guards, a pair of exaggerated arm guards and a dark blue leather layer.

The main color are similar to the Yun's version with grey, dark blue, and glowing orange decors.

Rear View - Original Outfit
A tail which conducts electricity can be seen on the back.

In the last two images above, we can see the exaggerated arm guards which also has electricity arcing between the pieces.

In the Gon mod, I recolored the grey tight fitting layer to skin as I did for the Yun mod. However, I did not 'open' up the tummy or modify the crotch area, in order to give a little difference between the two (or maybe I am just being lazy 😝 ). The tan lines that are very prominent in the Yun mod are also omitted in the Gon mod.

Likewise in the Yun mod, I kept all the bulky arm guards because I want to have that electrifying effect. 😅

The final mod is as shown in the images below.

Front View - Modified Outfit
As you can see, the grey under-layer has been recolored to skin, including the thighs that are partially revealed under the leg guards.

The bra was trimmed a little to remove the grey layer at the sides.

The mesh structure and texture for the bra and breasts are actually shared, so modifying the bra also means modifying the breasts and vice versa. This is something that I rarely see. 😕

Rear View - Modified Outfit
The electrifying tail and arm guards are kept because the effect looks great.

In real life, I don't know how the back of the outfit can stick up on the body like that. 😅

I don't really like the way how the butt transition to the leg guards so sharply. But there is nothing much that can be done since the leg guards 'bloated' up quite quickly below and it is not convincing to recolor them to skin layer.

Another way is to remove the top part of the leg guards completely, but unfortunately, the thighs (seen under the leg guards) are not connected to the crotch and the back of the thighs are also missing. 😥

Overall, the mod looks very similar to that worn by the NPC that I have shown in the Yun post, except for the G-String and the recoloring of the thighs (under the leg guards) to skin color.

So what do you think of this mod? Catch the video for a better look.

    1. Yup. The outfit drop rate in dungeon is horrid and lots of players still does not have it. So the price is high if you happen to be in a party of rich players. 😓
