Blade & Soul - First Step (Yun Outfit) Mod

Rotating back to Yun mod this week, we have the First Step, which is one of the outfits that have different look on the three races. It has a chance to drop off the reward chest after defeating the final boss, Dokumo, in the Skittering Tunnels dungeon located in the Highland Necropolis, in the Moonwater Plains map. Although the name Dokumo sounds cuddly like those cute Japanese plushy toys, it is definitely nothing like that... In fact, this boss can be nightmarish for some players, especially if they have a phobia of spiders. 😖 Take that fear and multiply by a hundred fold to make a giant spider, which is what Dokumo is. 😱

I will not show Dokumo here incase she freaks people out. But if you are interested in what Dokumo or the dungeon looks like, you can visit Bladeandsoulzone to check out their dungeon guide here.

The Skittering Tunnels used to be one of the four major dungeons that give players access to the Blackram East Fleet Supply Chain open world dungeon. With the game's advancement, most players will now most likely skip it or even bypass it with a Level 50 creation ticket (except maybe for players with Gon female character, and we will see why later). But even though the dungeon has become obsolete, a marginally high level player with mid tier gear may still have difficulty soloing it. That is due to a mechanism where Dokumo become untargetable by pulling herself onto the ceiling, while spawning eggs that will hatch into baby spiders. All her babies will come crawling to the player while the mother spews  poison all over the place. 😱  If the player cannot take out the hatchlings fast enough to get Dokumo to come down, they will end up being a delicious meal for Dokumo and her babies. 😱

Well, guess that's enough for the scary stuff. Let us check out the outfit for the three races below.

The First Step outfit for the three races share the same color scheme and accessories, but the cutting and layout of the main design has significant differences.

For the Jin race, they can be seen spotting a pair of leg guards all the way up to the thighs, with a very short blouse, that reveals the front part of the panties, and a tail cloth that just sufficiently covers the butt.

As for Gon, the torso part of the outfit is without the right sleeve and has a tail cloth of knee length. As compared to the Jin's version, the leg guard and armor is only worn on the left leg, but over a pair of skin colored stockings. But the most striking part of the Gon outfit is probably that underboob design that shows a huge portion of the breasts (or is it a skin colored bra like the stockings?). 😲  Is this a good enough reason for players with Gon female character to farm this dungeon?  😂

The Yun's version is likely the most conservative of all. In addition to the same tail cloth and single sided leg guard design that is similar to the Gon's version, the Yun's version also sports a pair of darker shade stockings. And of course, no underboobs. 😆

Let us now take a closer look at the original Yun outfit below.

We can sneakily see the white panties over the dark stockings. 😆

The design of the tail cloth is similar to the Gon's version.

Hmm... So what can we do for the mod? The torso portion looks untouchable because the cloth does not follow the skin layer close enough. No cleavage because that area is just a flat piece of cloth, and no underboobs like the Gon's version because the cloth does not closely follows the curves of the breasts. 😥

The only area of the outfit that can be mod is the lower portion, which includes recoloring the stockings to skin color and trimming the tail cloth.

So, let us see how these two mods appear on the modified outfit below.

Skin color now appears over where the dark stockings once were. 😄

The tail cloth has been trimmed to sufficiently cover the G-string panties. Just for information, the G-string is the original panties. 😅

I also trimmed a piece of small cloth at the sides of the hips but they are blocked by the hand in the images above. 

In the Specular (S) file, it can be seen that the skin areas are set to 100% opacity and I left them as it is. As such, the legs look glossy, like a pair of transparent stockings is worn over them. 😆

Well, that is all for this post. Watch the video, that is captured in the Lycandi Foothills, to get a better picture.
