Blood Strike Strike Pass and Free Rewards Farming Guide

Read This First

This is not a currency-farming guide — it is a Strike Pass and free-rewards guide, because that is what the game actually offers a free player. Blood Strike has no gold-farming loop in the MMO sense: there is no monster to grind for currency, no node to harvest, no market to flip. What it has is a seasonal battle pass, daily and weekly missions, redeem codes, login tracks, and events — and those are the free player's income. Two honest things up front: free Gold in Blood Strike is real but small, and most of it arrives as Timed Gold that expires at season end — so the skill is not earning it, it is spending it before it vanishes. And NetEase publishes no fixed daily Gold total, so this guide quotes no "Gold per day" figure anywhere, because any page that does is guessing. If you only read three sections, read Timed Gold, The 520 Gold Refund, and The Self-Funding Loop.

Blood Strike is NetEase's fast-paced battle royale FPS — global since March 2024, 100 million downloads by December 2025, live on Android, iOS, and PC. Its economy is a shooter's economy: a premium currency (Gold), a battle pass (the Strike Pass), a ranked ladder with its own store, and a set of free-play currencies that convert into roster depth. The free player who understands those systems can play the full game — every Striker is reachable without spending, the pass refunds itself if you finish it, and the events hand out Eternal-grade skins for logging in. The free player who does not understand them will watch Timed Gold expire, miss a seasonal Striker, and spend Gold on a pass they never finish. This guide is the difference between those two players.

The Currencies: Five Purses, Never Mix Them

Blood Strike has five currencies that matter to a free player, plus event currencies that come and go. They are separate purses with separate rules, and the most expensive mistake in the game is spending one thinking it is another.

Strike Coins deserve a special note. The name appears in code-reward lists — gamsgo's codes guide lists Gold, Reputation, Rank Coins, Strike Coins, and Noble Coins as currencies codes can pay — but no source pins down exactly how Strike Coins are earned or what they buy beyond that. This guide names them so you recognize the icon, and does not present them as a farming target, because no farming path for them is verified. If a guide tells you to "farm Strike Coins", ask it where — it will not have an answer.

Timed Gold: The Catch in Every Free Reward

Timed Gold is the single most important concept in this guide, and the one most free-reward guides skip. Blood Strike has two kinds of Gold, and they look identical in your wallet until one of them disappears.

• Permanent Gold is the regular premium currency. It never expires and carries over from season to season. It is what you buy with real money, and what you keep.
• Timed Gold is Gold handed out by events and seasonal rewards. It spends exactly like permanent Gold — same shop, same pass, same draws — but it expires precisely at Strike Pass season end, with no grace period and no conversion option. Unspent Timed Gold at the rollover is gone.

Timed Gold appears with a clock icon and a countdown timer. You can see the split in Settings → Account → Currency Details, which shows permanent Gold separately from Timed Gold. Check it before every purchase: the game auto-deducts Timed Gold before permanent Gold, which is generous — but only helps if you actually spend it before the deadline. The practical rules are short: spend Timed Gold first, spend it on permanent items, and spend it before the season ends. The worst outcome in the free-rewards game is finishing a pass, collecting a 520 Gold refund as Timed Gold, and then watching it expire because you waited for "something better" that never came. Permanent items — a Striker skin you will keep, a weapon skin from the Limited Stash, the next pass — are what Timed Gold is for. A gacha pull you would not have paid permanent Gold for is not a better use of Timed Gold; it is the same gamble with a deadline attached.

How the Strike Pass Works

The Strike Pass is Blood Strike's seasonal battle pass. Each pass has 50 tiers; each tier pays rewards on a free track (open to everyone) and a premium track (Elite or Premium purchase); pass seasons run 4–6 weeks, typically 42 days, though some compress to 28–35 days. Pass XP comes from daily and weekly missions and from playing matches — missions give the most Strike Pass XP per minute — and rewards must be claimed by hand per tier. Rewards do not always go to your balance on their own; check each tier and claim it.

Two clocks matter here, and they are not the same clock. The Strike Pass season (4–6 weeks) is the pass's own cycle: when it ends, unclaimed tier rewards disappear with it. The ranked season (about two months) is a different cycle with different rewards. A pass ending does not end your rank, and a rank resetting does not end your pass. Plan them separately — and never assume a pass deadline from a ranked deadline.

Free Track vs Elite vs Premium

Sources: BitTopup Timed Gold guide and Oct–Nov 2026 events guide; gamsgo free-Gold guide; BitTopup ENZO pass guide.

The free track is worth chasing for everyone. It costs nothing, it pays a small amount of Gold, and on generous passes it pays real cosmetics — the ENZO collaboration pass's free track handed out the Origin-12 Playmaker ultra skin plus check-in cosmetics for zero cost. The Elite track is worth it only if you log in most days and will finish all 50 tiers. The Premium track is worth it only if you want the instant 20 levels and the extra rewards on top — its net effective cost is 680 Gold (1,200 paid minus the 520 refund), which buys the level skip and whatever else the premium track adds beyond Elite.

Buying Elite mid-season is fine — buying it late is not. Purchasing Elite instantly unlocks the premium track and grants retroactive access to all premium rewards for tiers you have already completed. If you are at tier 15, you immediately claim all 15 premium tier rewards. That means you can wait until you are sure you will finish before spending — the smartest Elite purchase is the one you make at tier 30, when the finish is a certainty, not the one you make on day one on hope.

The 520 Gold Refund: How It Actually Pays

The Elite Strike Pass costs 520 Gold, and reaching max level gives you a full refund of 520 Gold. That sentence is true — and it hides three catches that every free player needs to understand before spending.

Catch one: the refund is Timed Gold. The 520 comes back as Timed Gold, not permanent Gold. It expires at season end. The pass is only "free" if you finish tier 50 and spend the refunded Timed Gold on permanent items before the deadline. Finish tier 50 with ten or more days remaining and you have time to spend deliberately — on the Limited Stash, on premium cosmetics, on the next pass. Finish on the last day and the refund may expire before you use it.

Catch two: the refund is incremental, not a lump sum. Timed Gold is distributed at specific tier milestones throughout the 50-tier progression, not paid out in one chunk at tier 50. Each tier displays its exact reward before you claim it. This guide does not quote a tier-by-tier Gold split, because the only published split is one site's estimate — the verified fact is the 520 total at max tier, and the verified shape is "incremental across tiers". Check each tier's display in-game; that is the live schedule.

Catch three: the refund only pays if you finish. The breakeven is at tier 50, when cumulative rewards reach 520. A pass abandoned at tier 30 has returned only part of the 520, and the rest is gone with the season. The Elite pass has zero net Gold cost only for players who finish — which is why the purchase decision is really a time decision: will you play enough, most days, for 4–6 weeks? If the answer is yes, the pass is the best value in the game (15–20 permanent cosmetics plus a full refund). If the answer is no, it is 520 Gold for a handful of cosmetics you could have skipped.

Do the math before you buy, not after. Count the days left in the season, count the tiers you still need, and count your realistic play time. If the numbers do not add up to tier 50 with days to spare, do not buy the pass — play the free track instead, and save your Gold for a season you will finish.

The Live Pass: Bunny Force (October 15 – November 14, 2026)

The live Strike Pass at this guide's publication is the Bunny Force Strike Pass, running October 15 to November 14, 2026 (BitTopup October 29 timetable; gamsgo). The details that matter for a free player:

• Dates: October 15 – November 14, 2026 (30 days — a compressed pass, shorter than the typical 42).
• Elite: 520 Gold. Premium: 1,200 Gold (instant jump to level 20, shown as worth 760 Gold).
• Refund: 520 Gold back at max level (as Timed Gold — see the catches above).
• Level 20 selection chest: Epic VOX – Neon Mirage Striker skin, or the Bunny Box + Bunny Go.
• Max level also pays Noble Coins and Upgrade Points.
• Around tier 10: Epic NOVA – Bunny Remix plus a 70 Gold drop is where the Gold starts flowing back (BitTopup's in-game purchase-screen report).
• Deadline discipline matters more than usual because the pass is 30 days, not 42 — you have less slack to finish, and the Timed Gold refund expires November 14, not later.

After Bunny Force ends on November 14, 2026, the next pass name and date are NOT verified. This guide does not invent them. Check the in-game pass tab — it is the only live source for what comes next.

Iron Honor vs Bunny Force: The Name Conflict

Two pass names are tied to the same October 15, 2026 date in different sources, and this guide carries the conflict rather than settling it silently. The official September 23, 2026 update notes on blood-strike.com say the "Iron Honor" Pass is "coming soon, scheduled for release on October 15". The third-party event timetables (BitTopup's October 29 article, citing the official October 20 version update announcement; gamsgo's free-Gold guide) call the October 15 – November 14 pass Bunny Force, with the Elite/Premium prices and the level-20 chest to match.

Both could be true in different ways — Iron Honor could be a season name and Bunny Force a pass name, or one could be an earlier name that changed, or the two sources could describe different regions. No source resolves it, and this guide will not assert that one name is wrong. What matters for you is the same either way: the pass running October 15 – November 14, 2026 has 50 tiers, costs 520 Gold for Elite, and refunds 520 at max tier. Check the in-game pass tab for the name on your screen, and plan around the dates and the prices, which agree across sources, not the name, which does not.

Earning Pass XP: Missions Are the Engine

Pass XP comes from two sources: playing matches and clearing missions. Matches pay a little; missions pay the most per minute. That is the whole strategy in one sentence: clear daily and weekly missions, and the pass levels itself. The exact XP per mission and per tier is not published by NetEase, so this guide does not quote it — but the ordering is verified across every community source: dailies first, weeklies second, matches third.

Two mechanics to know. First, rewards must be claimed by hand per tier — they do not always go to your balance on their own, so check the pass tab every session and claim what you have earned. Second, purchasing Elite mid-season unlocks retroactively: if you are at tier 15 when you buy, you immediately claim all 15 premium tier rewards. That makes the patient purchase the smart one — wait until your progress proves you will finish, then buy, then claim everything at once.

Daily & Weekly Missions: The Steady Income

Daily missions reset every day and take only a few matches. Weekly missions reset weekly and give the biggest regular jumps along the pass. Both pay Timed Gold and Strike Pass XP, plus event currency when an event is running. NetEase does not publish a fixed daily Gold total, and the amount changes with each event — so ignore any page that promises an exact "Gold per day". The honest statement is that missions are the steadiest free income in the game, and the exact payout varies by season.

How to run them:

• Every day: clear daily missions and claim the login track. These are small on their own but carry most of your pass progress across a season.
• Every week: finish weekly missions — they give more XP than dailies and are the biggest regular jumps along the pass. Never let a weekly reset pass with unfinished weeklies if you care about finishing the pass.
• On weekly reset day: plan one longer session so the same games move your dailies, your weeklies, and your Strike Pass level together. Daily and weekly missions count in the same matches, so stacking them is free progress.
• Event missions stack too: Halloween Rally, Starting Gift, and Stamp Collection missions usually pay skins or vouchers rather than Gold, but they complete in the same matches as your dailies and weeklies. You are earning them while you earn everything else.

Redeem Codes: The Full November 2026 List

Redeem codes are the fastest free rewards in the game — a few minutes for vouchers, skins, and currency — and they are also the most time-sensitive. NetEase releases codes for player milestones, social media goals, collaborations, and events, and they expire quickly, hit usage caps, or work only in certain regions. There is no web redeem form: redeem in-game via the Event tab → Announcements → Redemption Code, enter the code exactly as published (case-sensitive), and trust the in-game result. Players can only redeem a limited number of codes per game session.

Status checked November 6, 2026 (BitTopup free-Gold guide): NetEase posted no new redeem code with the September or October updates. The codes below are the ones code-tracking sites still list. None has an official expiry date. Try each once; if it fails, it has likely expired, hit its usage cap, or was already used on your account.

Sources: BitTopup free-Gold guide (checked Nov 6, 2026); gamsgo codes guide; topuplive codes guide; PocketGamer (5MSTRIKERS, July 2024). Most codes give vouchers, skins, crates, or XP items rather than large amounts of Gold — their value is in what they save you from buying, not in the Gold they hand you directly.

Events: The Oct–Nov 2026 Free Calendar

Events are where the biggest free rewards live, and they are also where the deadlines are sharpest. This is the verified event timetable for the current window, compiled October 29, 2026 (BitTopup) from the October 20 version update announcement and official @bloodstrike_EN posts. Dates are 2026; anything after November 14 is the next window and is not yet verified.

How to read this calendar as a free player: the 999 Gold from Pumpkins? Gold! (Oct 30 – Nov 1) lands right before the MP7 – Netherflame gacha closes on November 7 — use that free Gold on gacha rounds and keep your topped-up Gold for the pass. The Halloween Free Draws (150 draws, Eternal ZERO – Odashadow guaranteed) are the highest-value free event in the window — claim the Sedan – Odashadow early, before November 10. The Starting Gift is the lowest-effort reward on the list: one match a day, October 29 – November 10, for the MP155 – Hotblast and cosmetics. And the Ranked Sprint (from November 7) is the last-week push: Rank Coins and signature rewards for ranked play in the final week of the battle royale season.

Past events, for context: the ENZO collaboration pass ran June 11 – July 19, 2026 (free track: Origin-12 Playmaker ultra skin + check-in cosmetics; premium 1,200 Gold, 520 refund); the BLEACH collaboration ran February 1–28, 2026 (BLEACH PASS with SPIKE – Toshiro Hitsugaya; 28-day login reward Ethan – Byakuya Kuchiki); Hunt Rampage ran January 8 – February 12, 2026. Collab items are treated by NetEase as one-time drops by default — when they are gone, there is no guarantee they return, and no store bundle backup.

Login Tracks & Check-Ins: Show Up, Get Paid

Seasonal login tracks pay Gold, vouchers, and skins for logging in across a season — and missing days can mean missing the higher rewards. The ENZO collaboration's check-in is the clearest example: the Kraken Enzo Trendsetter skin was free, but you had to log in across 18 separate days to claim it. Miss logins and it was gone. The lesson generalizes: login rewards are the lowest-effort free income in the game, and they are also the easiest to lose through inattention. Open the game daily during an event window, claim the login track, and check the check-in counter — the rewards at the end of the track are always better than the ones at the start, and the track does not wait for you.

Rank Coins & the Ranked Store: The Ranked Player's Free Income

Rank Coins are earned through ranked play and spent in the Ranked Store — and they are a genuine free-rewards lane for players who climb. The official October 2026 notes give the concrete prices: the M4A1 – Ironsurgency is redeemable permanently for 15,000 Ranked Coins; the FAL – warrior Ultra Lucky Chest costs 60 Ranked Coins per draw; the FAL – warrior itself was available at a limited-time discount of 6,000 Ranked Coins, returning to 15,000 on October 31. Ranked rewards settle on your peak tier, not your closing tier, so a late-season slump does not erase what you earned by climbing. Save Rank Coins for the permanent unlock you actually want — the M4A1 – Ironsurgency at 15,000 is the long-term goal — not the first chest that flashes. Ranked Sprint (from November 7, the final week of the BR season) pays Rank Coins and signature rewards, which makes the last week of a season the best time to push.

Noble Coins & the Noble Shop

Noble Coins come from Strike Pass levels and are spent in the Noble Coin shop. The verified example: the September 28, 2026 return shop sold Legendary Striker skins for Noble Coins. Noble Coins are a slow-accruing currency — you earn them by leveling passes, season after season — and the shop's stock rotates, so the play is to bank them until a skin you actually want appears, then spend. They are not a farming target in the active sense; they are the pass's long tail, rewarding the player who finishes passes consistently.

Reputation: The Free Striker Fund

Reputation is the free-play currency that buys Strikers without spending Gold: Blast, Spike, Nova, Nacho, and Zero each cost 8,000 Reputation or 800 Gold. You earn Reputation from ranked matches, events, daily and weekly tasks, Strike Passes, milestones, and beginner check-ins — in other words, from everything this guide already tells you to do. Reputation is the compounding asset of the free account: it accrues from every activity, and it converts directly into roster depth. Spend Reputation, not Gold, on Strikers — Gold is for the pass, and the pass refunds itself. A free account that spends its Gold on Strikers is an account that cannot afford the pass; a free account that spends its Reputation on Strikers is an account that gets both.

The Self-Funding Loop: One Pass Pays for the Next

Put the pieces together and the free player's master strategy emerges. It is a loop, and once it is running, it sustains itself season after season:

1. Collect free Gold from missions, events, login tracks, and codes until you have 520. (This takes time — free Gold arrives in small amounts, and there is no shortcut. The Pumpkins? Gold! event's 999 Gold is the kind of windfall that accelerates it.)
2. Buy the Elite Strike Pass once for 520 Gold — ideally mid-season, when your tier progress proves you will finish.
3. Finish all 50 tiers before the season ends, clearing daily and weekly missions as the engine.
4. Collect the 520 Gold refund (as Timed Gold, distributed across tiers) — plus 15–20 permanent cosmetics, Noble Coins, and Upgrade Points.
5. Spend the refunded Timed Gold on permanent items before the season ends — or hold it for the next pass, if the next pass starts before it expires. (Check the dates: Timed Gold expires at season end, so the handoff to the next pass only works if the next pass's purchase window opens in time.)
6. Repeat. One purchase can keep paying for itself season after season — as long as you finish every pass you buy.

The Weekly Free-Rewards Routine

Free-Rewards Traps: How Free Players Lose Value

• Letting Timed Gold expire. The single biggest loss in the free game. Check Currency Details weekly; spend Timed Gold on permanent items well before season end.
• Buying the Elite pass you will not finish. The 520 refund only pays at tier 50. An unfinished pass is 520 Gold gone. Buy mid-season, when the finish is certain.
• Forgetting to claim pass tiers. Rewards do not always auto-claim. Unclaimed tiers at season end disappear with the pass.
• Chasing a "Gold per day" number. NetEase publishes no fixed daily Gold total. Any page promising one is guessing — missions are the best progression per minute, and the exact payout varies by season.
• Quoting tier-by-tier refund splits. The 520 total is verified; the per-tier split published by some sites is their estimate. Check each tier's display in-game.
• Mixing up the two season clocks. Pass seasons (4–6 weeks) and ranked seasons (~2 months) reset on different schedules. A pass deadline is not a ranked deadline.
• Spending Gold on Strikers. Reputation buys the same Strikers for free (8,000 each). Gold is for the pass.
• Spending Rank Coins on chests first. Save for the permanent unlock you want (M4A1 – Ironsurgency, 15,000 Ranked Coins); chests are the impulse buy.
• Missing login days during an event. Login tracks pay the best rewards at the end — the ENZO check-in needed 18 separate days for its skin. The track does not wait.
• Assuming a pass name from a guide. Iron Honor vs Bunny Force is unresolved across sources — check the in-game pass tab for the current name and dates.
• Trusting old codes. Codes expire, hit usage caps, or are region-locked. Try each once; trust the in-game result, not the list's promise.

Scams: What Is Not Real

There is no working Gold generator for Blood Strike. Your Gold is stored on NetEase's servers, so no outside tool can add to it — every "generator" site is a scam, and the only thing it generates is a compromised account or a stolen payment. The same applies to "free Gold" apps, "Gold hack" videos, and anyone offering Gold in exchange for your login: legitimate top-ups need only your Blood Strike UID, never your password. If someone asks for your password, they are not topping you up.

The legitimate free Gold in this game comes from exactly the sources this guide documents: missions, the free pass track, the Elite pass refund, login events, and redeem codes. Anything outside that list — a website promising thousands of Gold, a video with a "working method", a Discord seller with a "glitch" — is not a method. It is a trap with a comments section full of bots. The free rewards in this guide are small, steady, and real. The scams promise the opposite, and deliver nothing.

Patch State: Live, Actively Updated

Blood Strike is live globally and actively updated. The most recent verified patch context at this guide's publication (November 9, 2026): the October 20, 2026 version update announcement (official), App Store version 1.003.166 (October 27, 2026), and a Google Play update on November 2, 2026. The live pass is Bunny Force (October 15 – November 14, 2026), with Halloween events running alongside it (Free Draws to November 14, Starting Gift to November 10, Ranked Sprint from November 7, Graffiti District scheduled November 5). The September 22/23, 2026 official notes added the ranking acceleration system, Ranked Store additions, and Squad Fight adjustments. After November 14, the next pass name and date are not verified — check the in-game pass tab, because it is more current than any guide, including this one.
