Blood of Ares (used for general Ascending/Awakening) total cap ~14/day (as of 10/23/2025). Sources with sub-caps: BOSS: defeat an event boss Lv3+ or a normal boss Lv11+ (Ifrit and above) -> up to 3/day. During 'Clash of Civilizations - Assault' event, Shadows of Dawn (Zombie+) may also drop it. RELICS: explore relics -> up to 6/day. RESOURCE TILE: level 13+ -> up to 4/day. Activity score 145 -> 1/day. Other lucky sources: Hunter's Lucky Gift (high-level boss, 10 Blood at 5.69%), Trade Carriage (keep 15+), Tiered Monarch Competition (top-5 daily), Ranger Knight Order emblem chests, King Solomon's Treasure (Desert Bandits), Auction House, paid Alliance Shop/packages. Bot note: the 3/day boss cap means once 3 qualifying (L11+ / event L3+) kills land, higher bosses stop giving Blood -- switch targets to reward-optimal bosses after the cap.
