blade and soul guide
Blade & Soul is going to launch next week and at launch the level cap sets at 45. You'll be able to challenge the iconic villain Poharan in Blackram Supply Chain dungeon at end-game. With fine gear, a proper group, and experience you can try 24-man raid (which is 24-man version of Blackram Supply Chain) for different type of challenge.
Funny you mention old school mmo's since the later 24man raids in BnS will be actual 24man raids like WoW and other games. They have 2 of those "real" raids in Korea right now. :)
Either way, OP, all of the 24 man raids for a long time will be the same as E. Fleet, open and accessible!

2. RAID Prerequisite Knowledge
What to wear ? ==> what ever party leader is wearing ! VERY IMPORTANT ! get pirate outfit, imperial outfit, bamboo guard outfit or any outfits that make your cross party members allies, it will provide you buffs like Increased attack stats of Warlock's summoner's red aoe circle or BM's Blade barrier etc
Usually people prefer to wear bamboo guard outfit so keep one in inventory before going in raid
Blackram Supply Chain can be played in 4-man or 6-man version, both of which have same bosses and can be entered through cross server dungeon finder. The 24-man version is called E. Fleet Supply Chain and it increases enemies' health and reduces damage they take. The raid version can't be entered through cross server dungeon finder. Players are supposed to look for others using the Party Finder, or simply gather at the entrance if they are in the same guild.

Blackram Supply Chain 6-Player (Normal Difficulty)6-player dungeons are the standard dungeons that the vast majority of players will experience through their adventures to reach max level. They offer group content that requires a modest amount of coordination and group composition, and are most commonly entered through use of the automated Cross Server Dungeon finder.In the 6-player version you'll see reduced damage from enemies, damage indicators (also referred to as telegraphs) from enemies indicating where they'll attack, suggestions on how to avoid damage, and you'll have a timer that will show when to best execute a successful dodge out of an attack. You can also use Dragonblood which is obtained from shrines in the dungeon that will return you to full health if you were to take enough damage to kill you.While the overall difficulty is well balanced for a full group of six players, it is possible to try to tackle it with fewer than that, and for an equally greater challenge. Rewards you can gain from the 6-player dungeons include Soul Shields and accessories, a chance at chests that contain weapons, and various crafting materials.
Blackram Supply Chain 4-Player (Hard Difficulty)The 4-player version of a dungeon is the max-level version, and offers greatly increased difficulty. Not only are enemies doing more damage, but you won't see any attack telegraphs (you'll need to memorize their animations), and you won't receive any ability suggestions or dodge timers. Bosses may also have additional abilities or different attack patterns, as well as increased health and reduced enrage timers (the amount of time before their damage is increased to instantly lethal levels). You also won't have the standard Dragonblood to use to resurrect, although your other party members can still always resurrect you directly (if they're still alive). Of course for the greatly increased challenge come increased rewards-including the boss' own weapon as a drop, and exclusive outfits and accessories.
E. Fleet Supply Chain 24-Player (Easiest Difficulty)The 24-player version of Blackram Supply Chain is called the E. Fleet Supply Chain, and must be entered directly from the instance portal. 24-player versions of dungeons allow multiple groups of players to enter at the same time to conquer constantly respawning enemies and bosses. You can't use the Cross Server Dungeon finder to join a 24-player dungeon, and instead will want to look for others using the Party Finder, or for people gathering at the entrance to the instance. It all comes down to efficiency of the groups working together to defeat enemies, so joining an efficient group can be extremely lucrative. When an instance fills up with 24 players, a new instance is created and any new players entering will be placed into that one, and then the next when that one's full, etc.Enemies have generally increased health, and reduced damage, allowing anyone who enters the ability to contribute. It's entirely possible to enter alone and work with the other players already in the instance, but it's generally recommended to enter with a few other players, or post a notice for a group in the Party Finder. There are daily quests that will regularly send players into the standard 6-player dungeon, but a large number of daily quests exist for the 24-player version, and they can be excellent sources of experience and gold.
