>>2818583Pass, SMASH, smash, pass, PASS, pass, pass, SMASH, pass, smash
>>2818583the combined trashiness of this screenshot is off the charts
Are these the best pve crystals?
nice stalwart fortitude
>>2818642Yes, but when I am over cap I will go to something like this, starting with subbing in the Olucas first and then the HAN BSR when I'm really over cap. Also, the lack of symmetry on your middle row is very triggering.
I can't remember the last time I succeeded a tap
Not for sure what to do next.
>>2819191
>>2819191Get to 427 DP as soon as possible so that you can do the Jordine, otherwise you're missing out on one Piece of Edana each week. That means get the rest of your Slumbering Origin armours to Silent, make sure to use all your free crystals here from Dark Spirit's Greed, Seal of the Undying, and the Olvia Academy Coin. That will get you +18 DP, so you'll be at 421. Then you need six more, for which you'll need an Exalted alchemy stone, preferably Vells, for +4 DP then the last part comes from one TET armour.The pity amounts for your armours have been reduced just recently so you hopefully will get all the TRIs without too much struggle. You can save silver on the TET taps by using the Silent Crystal of Origin if you would alternately be buying vendor Crons, so I would get to preordering those now, but it's generally not worth using the Fragments due to the cost of Magical Shards.
>>2819191You could start by giving me a thigh job.Then i'm guessing you're around 1400-1450 total AP or even lower, but that's no problem when you can grind hexe at 3.5b+ an hour. You can go the self made route and enhance your accessories to NOV 1 by 1, or buy PEN debos. I'd buy the PEN debo neck when it's so cheap, the average cost to enhance OCT->NOV is about the same but not guaranteed.After neck get earrings first on the off chance the enhancing materials from edania 2 can go on the market, giving you another cheap enhancing option (although it's going to take you a while and edania will be out by then, so you'll know if this is viable or not.)By the time you reach 1500 total AP you should get better armors and grind DSR. With agris it's decent and you get kabua artifacts. Tungrad too decent.Upgrade path looks something like this:-khan heart until you get vell (lmao gl)-3x SEP accessories +3 AP (skip if going for PEN debos)-HEX weapon +2 AP-DUO/TRI armors-OCT accessories +5 AP-SEP weapon +2 AP-NOV accessories +7 APSomething like that. Didn't write about artifacts in case you wanna buy them whenever. Also just go to BDOworkshop and put your gear, it gives you a more precise upgrade path with silver per AP
Finally got my full dec acc set.
>>2819321>>2819332Interesting. I'm at 1318 before buffs. I may go for the armor's first. I have 98K crons left if that amounts to anything.Regarding Hexe, wdym? Only Hexe I know of has very low level undead there except for the ones on the cliffs that spawn from the tombstones. What is DSR? What is and where do you get a Khan Heart? And what good are alchemy stones? They seem to only last like 5 minutes for a buff? Seems wasteful to me and annoying to use. Also, is Jordine difficult? I don't really do bosses very often except the rift ones.
>>2819703>98k crons98k is a lot at your AP/DP level, just don't use them for armors. Those pieces of shit are notoriously cursed, buy armors from the market.>hexeHexe sanctuary inside elvia realm. Go to the marni realm version (the instanced one) and aim for 35k trash/hour. The money here comes from the despairs, the yellow crystals, you get 30-50 every hour.>DSRDarkseeker's Retreat.>khanCentral market, buy for around 3 bil. It's the blue one that says 'destruction' that gives you AP and attack/cast speed. Yes it lasts 5 minutes, but has a charge of 150. You turn it on from your gear window and it stays on. Once those 150 charges are spent you can recharge it, you don't have to buy a new one. Most alchemy stones work like this, including vell's heart and the more expensive stones you see on the market that go from 30b all the way up to 1 trillion.>jordine difficult?Not if you have the gear for him. Depends on class too but overall easy like all the others.
what do I do from here?saving up to enhance the armor to X?
>>2818642More or less? 100% immunity at the spot you're grindan at, maybe attack speed in places where you're overcapped or don't need resists, Dusky Ruin has a lot of defense on it, and HAN Macalods aren't as particularly useful after they put severe diminishing returns on every spot, which might as well be a hardcap.
>>2819912Where you are now a couple of people on youtube have video guides on gearing, check out Biceptimus or Choice.
>>2820666just started loml, seems I still have to do all the story quests at grana and odrax
>>2819912you should read up on the hypaboooost first.I think you get a full set of the next armour tier for free, so don't waste your mats enhancing the tuvala up to Xhttps://www.naeu.playblackdesert.com/en-US/News/Detail?groupContentNo=10364&countryType=en-US
>>2820812He'll get a +3/Silent armor if he upgrades that to DEC fully, assuming it's still worth the material cost. If it is, he can melt down the one piece he doesn't need from the Black Shrine rewards.
im in love with my character bros
Need to get someone to enhance for me because my RNG is ass
>>2819191Disgusting character, you should kill yourself NOWBut if you choose not to, just PUMP IT on hexe and buy your silents or pen debos. You should probably get a khan's heart too, but that's another 3 weeks. And start working on your journals, those are free stats.But i'd rather you really killed yourself.
>>2820666>>2820812many thanks, that link was easy to digestgot to this so far but I'm about to run out of fund to repair durability
i need to get hex on my subweapon to reach 385ap for orbita boss, this shit is so annoying
>>2819191>>2821108equip a fukken tome you cheap ass niggas
>>2821137it doesnt do anything
>>2821142it gives souland there are different tomes you can get that increase rewards of combat experience or contribution experience and stuff
>>2821151All garbagay (garbage and gay)
>>2821167soulful and wholesome
>allergic to booksyep its an everage BDO player
>>2819848Khan's is actually 7 bil on the market right now in NA. That will have to wait.>>2821046I started journals but a lot of them want me to do content that I don't really want to do, like join a guild or do a bunch of life skill stuff so I've been ignoring most of them.>>2821137I have a Chenga tome but it's on an alt atm.
>>2821623You can get Khan's from doing the guild boss with your guild, much better than buying it. Some guilds are casual and others expect things of you, but you're missing out on a lot by not being in one. You could even join a guild for a bit then leave when you get your Khan's and if you get tired of being in one.
>>2821623Kamitani ahh character
Hmm today I shall rape a Shai.
ranked AOS when
>>2821652Maybe, but guilds and I do not mesh well together, so I prefer to stay away from them.>>2821682I unironically like his art.
>>2821799unironically probably not until 2027
>>2821814That's why we got Jealousy you can participate in the few things we do per week, have a source for advise and place to talk shit or just ignore everything including guildchat. The only thing that might happen is twice a week a platoon invite popping up for Vell/Guild bosses as we invite everyone that is on.
>>2821819AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
get rich or die tryin' homies
>>2822361It's such a shame they replaced the Forgotten Limbo Token with just a box, but haven't done anything more with the Erekhans.
>>2821861how do I apply?
last time i had fun was at elvia saunils competing for the elite rotation
>>2823234I completely jumped over Elvia Calpheon, I spent a long time at Jade, then went straight to Crypt and Dehkia Thornwood.
>>2822980Find it in the guild finder or easier send a quick tell to Novahk, Jussieu or Seruki. One of them should always be on.
>>2822437I imagine it's ostensibly something they could revisit down the line like with Star's End and Sycraia. Honestly I see a lot of grind spots potentially shifting if they're getting rid of Elvia realm.
>However, as this title is a reward intended to honor adventurers who have reached Level 70 through long gameplay and effort, it is not awarded if the level was achieved by obtaining additional experience through the Secret Book of Concentrated Balance or Combat/Skill Experience Exchange Coupons.stupid niggers get fucked, massive W
>>2824760Yeah a surprising, pleasant and hilarious noteI didnt even expect them to keep logs of that shit for so long
>>2824760time to find out who the frauds are
ggez lol
When is the Pit of Undying revamp
>>2825227No date specified, unfortunately. Also, not sure if it's a revamp or just adding higher tiers
>>2825227who actually cares about pit
>>2825296I love armpits.
>>2825296You once it gives 1000 crons per clear
Don't forget to use your Banquet Platters if you haven't done so yet, I think they expire with this maintenance
Gigagord? seriously?Is he the final form of the Hobo-Bat?
>>2824724I don't think they're getting rid of the Elvia spots, just the way it is done currently. Perhaps they should just go back to the old system with specific servers having regular mobs and others having Elvia mobs.Whilst we're on it, I still maintain that they really missed the ball by not having the Calpheon Shrine and Crypt have Elvia versions, both are lore-wise exactly the sort of places such corruption would effectively take hold.
not to be confused with Gigajord
>>2825845I really miss questing with Jarette and Isobelle.....that was peak mmo questing
Why are some reforge stones so expensive all of a sudden?
>>2826222It's 5 per to get the new upgraded ones after tomorrows patch.
These forced scarcity updates are the worst. 90 hours in altus plateau literally hitting scarecrows just to get my ekleta earrings to OCT... just let me lifeskill broWorst of all it serves no purpose, choice will be done in a month anyway and the rest of the casuals like me will still have unfulfilled preorders by december. It's worse than weekly gated content, at least that takes 15-20 minutes to complete. I killed 99 mobs in the past 30 days, mostly by accident when riding my horse. Are you seriously telling me i have to grind? Are we back to armor flames and all that shit, but times 6? Fuck. You.
>>2827137Why do you care if you dont play the game
>>2827137you're completely irrelevant, shut the fuck up
>>2827137truth nvke. grindsissies are happy to get another hamster wheel, meanwhile everyone else with a life can see what bullshit these new spots are>>2827208whites have the ability to care about things outside their sphere of concern, rajesh, without having to worry about an izzat score
fishniggers getting uppity after getting their hyperboost welfare check
>>2827459You're addicted to afk cookie-clicker dopamine in a korean mmo that you dont even playSubhuman in every sense of the word
>>2827137If you just want to lifeskill then you can happily ignore these new spots and lifeskill away. Grinding new items to improve gear is always how it's been if you are with or ahead of the curve.>>2827459>bringing up raceFuck off loser, noone wants you or your pol shite here
>>2825845Jarette turns me on. Imagine what the guards at Calpheon did to her while she was in the gallows. Each taking their turn with a supple Serendian Princess. I bet they ran a whole train on her at the command of some perverse noble woman that liked to watch.
>>2827877Motherfucker, this isn't Game of Thrones!
when will this game get an actual graphical update? the textures trying to hide how polygonal everything is are really showing their age now. or is that asking too much of a billion dollar company?
>>2827913>or is that asking too much of a billion dollar company?They're afraid people with lower-end computers might be unable to play the game if they made a graphical update to Unreal Engine 5. Keep in mind Pearl Abyss really is an expert at burning graphic cards if it wants to.
>>2827877
>>2827919what a shame, guess I will try out the certain new upcoming mmo that will not be named after all
>>2827947>certain new upcoming mmo that will not be named after allI bet it will be mobile-veiled as PC only and with a fee to use chat and market options. The truth is that none can replicate the program Black Desert has. It's the ONLY action mmo that works. Rest don't even try because they don't know how too. It's Pearl Abyss best kept secret.
>>2827919the game isnt even made with unreal engine
how do pvpheads play neutral? every high rated player i see has effects turned off and playstation 1 graphics, so what tells are they looking for? or is neutral in this game more like staying protected while throwing random cc's hoping one sticks?
>thought of topping up to buy the 3000 pearl returner pack that gives you 2 free outfits and 3200 pearl cashback>forgot about it>maintenance wiped it off the shopphew that was close, the korean almost had me
Hope you like shitty jump puzzles bros
for the gather chuds
>>2828336>2 free outfits>free
>>2828336jej I just used spare pearls from the several 1+1 events over the years when I returnedworks on my machine
>>2828686what is this shit even for? just those crappy potions?
>>2825845>>2825907>>2827877Jarette is used goods and taken. Twice even.>>2828180I mean kinda? There's always two levels to neutral, the one that comes naturally with experience and when you actually know the ins and outs of the game. So when you're against a dosa and you sorta know when to throw a skill that's experience. Now when you can reliably catch him, you probably know exactly what is happening. I'm vagueposting because it depends alot on class and what approaches you can use.
ummmm endgamekekbros, these earrings aren't dropping very fast...
>>2829352welcome to agris ricefields motherfuckertime to farm for 500 hours
>having fun exploring>see cool tower in the distance>unreacheable from the ground>reach the top by gliding from the highest mountain>black hole explodes and kills my horse>teleported into high end mobs attacking mes-sorry... i'll stick to autopath...
wow thx PA
>>2829634pfff I got 3 x 170 FSabsolute useless
>>2829660i feel better now thx
If I convert my DEC Kharazad whilst tagged do the new accessories become automatically un-tagged?
>>2829753yeah, happens with every gear upgrade
>>2829760Yeah, I was just hoping they might have done it differently this time. Oh well I need to combine my Vells and my Splendid Alchemy Stone of Destruction anyway
pooperion
been doing a lot of Mirrowak Labyrinth lately for the title and I never bothered looking up the loot I got if its worth anything....so today I thought I'd check and holy fuck this shiny stone goes for above 3bil and Vercedes drops one almost every run (once I even got an additional one from Murrasto)So I've been averaging at around 2bil/hour?crazyHow many of these do you even equip? Why's this so crazy high?
>>2830798just one per lightstone set, and its rare
fffffuck you fuck you fuck you
Why is upgrading Slumbering Origin to Edana armour timegated again? Not so much the stones than the actual quest to exchange for the pieces.>>2830798Iridescent stones today are typically used in lightstone sets for life skills and specialized PvP cases, and you only really need one; it does nothing on its own than act as a catalyst for some stronger combos. It used to be a possible drop from Dark Rifts and species damage used to relevant until some changes happened, but currently these are only obtained in now lower-end grind spots, and if you're doing PvE then everyone and their mother is running Vicious Shadows if above the AP cap.
So uhm werent we supposed to get exp faster now?
>>2830798I've been getting a lot of them from Quint and Muraka after their changes. Most of the best lifeskill combinations use one, plus all of The Wild for PvE. The demand far outstrips the supply so they're a nice bit of income.Are you saving up the trash loot until you get the title you want?
>>2831940stronger mob, higher exp, faster level
>>2831940No, this update had the level cap but no exp revamp yet. Around september IIRC when you get lodseexp for random shit including NW
>>2832003I sell the vendor trash, the rest I dump into storage. Should have sold the embers and flames tho....they just became completely useless ne?
I used one of my Venatrix boxes for my Drak... worst mistake ever I have a perpetual boner now.
>>2833294proof?
>>2833620
>Nearly all channels are crowded nowAlive game?
>>2833851yeah but instead of the constant whining about the game being dead we now get constant whining about lag at world bosses.....the eternal duality of the mmolet
how do i see when the guild house auctions will be active? it says every 2 weeks but how do i know if its a week or two weeks away
>>2833819I meant proof of the boner
>>2833892I like it when world bosses are laggy cause that means there are a lot of people playing, and that makes me feel good :) >>2830798A couple years ago I found this group of people who'd run murrowak in a party and split up servers. They figured out they could prime a server by doing a certain amount of phases then repeating on other servers, so they would assign each member a small list of servers to hit up, then grouping and going down the list one by one as a party after a certain amount of servers were primed. The whole thing from start to finish would take about an hour. I did it a couple times with them and it was usually 1 per hour or every other hour and other people would get 2 pretty frequently. This was when they were only maybe 1.2-1.5 bil or something. I lost contact with them though and I don't remember how to do it, I doubt anyone does it or would want to do it these days anyway. Murrowak was such a cool and underrated spot too.
So many people aren't good for the game.
>>2828689you get back the pearl with extra after 1 week, it's freesave the part of buying pearl at the beginning of course
>28 hours grind to pity pen earring
>>2819688Very nice! just in time to upgrade them and start the acc grind all over.
>>2833294I saw this tanned Drak wearing Venatrix in Angavu>>2835413Oh shit nice one dude! Where can you grind now, Agris or Markthanan?
>>2835413Congrads!
>>2835419I am doing Agris spot until I get the crystal. Probably could do Markthanan spot now thought.>>2835425thx c:
>>2835452Nice one, yeah I reckon the crystal is worth staying for, it might take a while to get the BON without it. I haven't got the old HAN yet but I think I'm gonna skip the remaining 64 parts that I need and go straight to Agris, at least for a few hours, and see if I can make it work.
How? Who? Why?
>>2835595There's nothing stopping you from going there right now and trying to kill the mobs. Mr. Rapolas was on stream today in a 5-man party at Event Horizon, about 400 AP under the cap but still perfectly capable of killing the mobs.
>>2835640>need 5 people >perfectly capable of killing the mobsI'm just wondering who would even sell this after going through the trouble to get it
>>2835595>How?Autism hardcapped before Edania part 2 released.>Who?The ones who were hardcapped before Edania part 2 released.>Why?Why not? they are already at their max possible price and they obviously don't care for stats anymore.
>>2835595Is this reason enough to hold off on NOV Kharazad to Ekleta upgrades for DEC instead?
>>2835419Sex, rape even.
Fuck this basalt bullshit, PA really likes to fuck over lifeskillers it seemsNot gonna touch that without them adding at least x 3 the amount of basalt per channel
i quit sometime around guardian releaseis it worth coming back and would i be able to catch up? do people still karmabomb?
>>2835179>save the part of buying pearl at the beginning of courseretard
>>2835804I think it's definitely worth coming back, the game is in a great place overall.Catch-up mechanics give you more than ever, you can get to really rather high gearscore now in a short time. I haven't seen a karmabomber in years, but I expect they do still exist here and there.
>>2835804just grind arsha
>>2835862>>2835957thanks
>>2835804>do people still karmabomb?what is left of OW pvp is pretty much the last 5 perma red trannies attacking tuvala timmy alts at world bosses or camp new player grind spots like Honglim with their fully buffed 900GS chars and that's it.
>>2836001yah Edania 2 is super peaceful with everyone just staying in their lane and pveing like good little carebears
latelet newbab returnee here, when do I graduate my first character? old info says level to 61/62 and get pen tuvula before graduating, but we get that by lv 60 now. and what do I exchange time-filled fragments for, what to get from season special gift? anything else I should do or be mindful of before graduating?
>>2836431>old infomost of the info out there is useless/harmful with how fast things change. 61 is a good place to graduate though. Graduate asap as soon as you're comfortable though.>what do I exchange time-filled fragments forI'd just hold onto them until you get into high level enhancement where you'll want to use them for valk's cry. The other stuff is fairly easy/cheap to get via other means once you get into the game proper.>what to get from season special gift?Capotia used to be the go to but they've been obliterated by hyperboost kharazads, I really don't know now. When in doubt just hodl.As long as you completed your season pass you should be good to graduate.
>>2836013Edania is awful, and I pity the bosses; the players there are horrible. You know something is wrong when the Tuvala Timmies prefer to side with the bosses than with the nobility of gamers.
>>2836431>season special giftfailstacks, only those
>>2836470thank you very much. can I hoard everything for now and graduate then? I read time-filled's get nuked if you don't spend them before graduating. anything that might brick me if I don't do it before graduating?
>>2836502>I read time-filled's get nuked if you don't spend them before graduating.Old info, they're permanent now and you can move them freely between characters and warehouse. If you need more you can make another seasonal chara, you start with 2 tickets I believe and more can be bought with loyalty points.Seasonal used to be literally seasonal but its been changed significantly so its just all year round noob containment zone. >anything that might brick me if I don't do it before graduating?Not that I can think of. Escape and do Academy+Hyperboost asap. And get yourself in a active guild, preferably one that will carry you through HM Boss Blitz.
>>2836502Not really, it's just those stones. Hoard anything beside trash loot for now and you're good.The flow chart is: Season -> Abyss One (Vell) -> Olvia Academy and you're good.Pen Tuvala is now the same as Pen Boss and you get base Fallen God Armor from Olvia.
thanks bros
>>2836554>and you get base Fallen God Armor from Olviaiirc these are from solo boss blitz log and might be a bit too much for someone fresh out of seasonalbut should be very doable after getting sovsI don't remember if there are prereqs to the log or black shrine though, does the LotML questline need to be completed?
>>2836593>might be a bit too much for someone fresh out of seasonalThey made them so easy I can do them in 30sec with Tuvala alts.>does the LotML questline need to be completedPossible but I wouldn't be surprised if they just hand it out loml MSQ 2.5h or so of r-spam
People who made these stupid as platofrming challenges really think they deserve to live
bing bing wahoo!
Is it really that bad to buy vendor crons
>>2837849Yes its much better to sit on 500b doing nothing for you
>>2837849wait until the night vendor event and buy all the crons/gamba boxes
>>2837933When is the next one due? In like 3 months?
>>2837960I'm betting on 2 months. I seems like we have them 4 times a year now
>>2836013No one has any reason to step out of their lane anyway, there are a lot of servers and grind rotations and a lot of spots.
>>2837610I had it knock me off the platform when it moved, these are mega gay.
>>2836593>do loml quests need to be doneDon't think so anymore. Which is good as its the worst questline in the game by far.
>>2838201I liked it
Woah
i used all my hammers trying to dec my necklace (14 total) and failed. should i wait for more hammers or start spending silver on crons at around 12 bil per tap
>>2838774I doubt there will be many more hammers for a while given what we've just received from the ball. The necklace is definitely worth getting to DEC, as the materials to enhance Ekleta are the hardest to obtain, but current advice would suggest that Earrings and possibly Rings are not worth getting to DEC.
my class is a fucking endangered species but people still S rank it wtf
>>2839152same
>>2839201
>>2839152What class? Also which tierlist?
we are so back
>>2840104what the fuck happened in 2019
Any new good fishing spots at edania2?
>>2840447game went free for a while and had shadow arena. i think dyrus and a bunch of other streamers were trying it out too at the time but i could be remembering wrong
Sigh... I wish BDO was remade on the new engine and would have a complete power creep reset.
>>2840447Might have been the release of BDO Remastered, that caused a huge spike in players for a while.
>>2835738Perhaps but I can tell you that taking NOV Kharazad to pity is brutal af.
>>2840865I got lucky with my DEC necklace tap sometime earlier in the year. It's probably going to be a bit before I go tapping again but for now it's either getting bottlenecked by these new drops or crons. On the side otherwise is investing into HAN reforges, since I imagine percentiles on crit and back damage are probably more tangible of a benefit.
>>2838774they'll give out more welfare when players start to decline again, which will be sooner than you think
whats up with this damage difference between crit and non crit?isn't it supposed to go up for only 43%?the back attack one is weird too
>>2840955Back attack is +50% dmg for the back attack and the 16% go on top so roughly 166% dmg dealt.For the Crit we take the 166% back attack damage multiply it by the total crit modifier of 2.43 (crit adds +100% dmg and 43% mods on top)for a total of 403% dmg dealt.
>>2841044thanks anon, didn't know they had (real) base value
>>2841068Well that's why crit and back attack are such a big thing and it also explains well why it never feels like you take damage in BDO. You either get nuked or it's almost fully mitigated by gook math.

so not only are these genshit challenges the worst shit i've ever played, they're also buggy as fuck? bravo pa, truly a new low. i couldn't do this bad a job if i tried

Day 31 - I am still trapped in the Bug Cave. At a certain time of day, the sun shines through a tiny crack in the ceiling and the entire lair is embraced by a golden glow.How many times have I killed this bug now? I can't remember....will this ever end?
Went to Agris for the first time, I died three times, all whilst trying to maid away my trash, and didn't once trigger the afk phase. At least I got my third map piece from my paint.

>>2843189can't you just get naked
>>2843227still took too much time running to the other base and then jumping into an aoe to suicide with the whole team swarming the base with random CCs
>>2843141I sold a bunch of AP, DR and Crit ones as soon as the price hit 1 bil. Doing the world bosses consistently has paid off nicely.
now that edania 2 was a big fat nothingburger, I demand 16 hammers and 100k crons as compensation for PA's faggotry
>>2843251you can't change gear in rbf
Damn, +10ing my Chiro's cannon ate up nearly all the tidal blackstones I had stored up and I got relatively lucky on taps too. Didn't expect that this would be the bottleneck.
At what point do I sell some? Are they likely to hit 6 mil again?
>>2845363You will need so many for the new stuff, under 10k it's just keep it as you never know when PA comes up with a new weapon upgrade that might need 10k of it.
Who do I blame for this
>>2845931neat, I should finish up my batch and sell lol and keep some for me
>>2845931some south american reddit post apparently according to my guildies
>>2846042wait a sec, are you in my guild
Chat are we cooked?
shit is so fried fr on god
A guildmate of mine that doesn't lifeskill was like "fine, i'll just make them myself"He went to Bdolytics, expanded all ingredients used for harmony and cron meal and stared at them for a moment each.Swapped to his fishing alt and went afk.
>>2846955its ok man they're going to give out welfare harmonies
>>2846955I don't cook but I do alchemy, looking at making Cron meals seems much the same as Harmonies, just with some recipes that are unfamiliar to me. Unfortunately I haven't invested much in cooking nodes, so my stockpile of materials to make Simple Cron Meals is pretty low.
>>2846088no it's been going around for a while and i've been told even the streamers were saying the same thing. speaking of bdo streamers, apparently there is also something going down with jenny or whatever openly admitting that she cucks choice i guess, but that made me a bit sad. i dunno i've been outta the loop for forever and came back for hyperboosties
Even Marvelous Balacs sold out
I think this market situation is one of the most interesting things to happen on the lifeskilling side of BDO for a while. Prices have all shot up so profit margins are better, and people who don't do this are learning what is fuelling their purchasing of buffs from the Central Marketplace. It's just a shame that I am going away for a week and probably won't be able to capitalise on the situation.
>>2847830ugh. sheer faggotry
>>2847830>it's AIThey spend 8-12 hours per day semi-afking, they couldn't put some effort on the banner?
>>2847872of course they'd semi-afk on the banner too
so why are they so assmad? because of dispatch?
if lifeskilling is so great then they're doing you a favor by giving you a reason to do it yourself now :^)
>>2847830neets on strike lolwhat are they going to do? get a real job out of protest?retardation is growing at exponential levels year to year now....can't wait for our AI overlords to put an end to it
>>2847830is this really the cause or is it opportunistic trolling or deflection? anyone could have generated thisthe real issue is that everything got bought out and preordered to hell and it happened in completely different regions at the same time, now panic buying far exceeds the supplyAnyone can lifeskill and not all lifeskillers are part of some shadowy cabal, in fact its the playstyle that most lends itself to not interacting with others and just being a hermitthis might even be an effort to exacerbate the situation by trying to convince independent lifeskillers not to correct the issue by pretending its a movement
>>2848191>Anyone can lifeskillthat's a big stretchit's mind numbing enough to deter a lot of people, actually i think only autists can bear with the lifeskill gameplaythey also made sure that to make actual stuff that people use all the time like meal you have to play the active lifeskill minigame, just afk-ing won't cut it as you'll have no ingredients
>>2848191>he isn't a member of the Blak Deserovski Life-Worker Collective Internationalengmi
can't they just inactivate the communist prize-brackets?This is one of these occasions where a free market would work it's wonders imo....
>>2848294that's an issue of want not can't, the game gives every player everything they need to start doing high level crafts and what skill caps exist are so low I can't even remember them. It's not like grindan where everything is capped and gated. My point is that there isn't some fucking hard monopoly on lifeskilling and even if you do have some syndicate supplying 50%+ of the goods and they decide to turn off the tap in unison, people can seamlessly step into that role if they choose to, not to mention all of those who already have because they just like lifeskilling for the sake of it. Doesn't even take that long to get set up.
>>2848317There's a million things PA could do and should do because controlled economies only work when the people controlling it are...controlling it.Instead we have a capped economy with a laissez faire attitude from up high and its total dogshit with constant persistant shortages which they "solve" with bandaid patches that come half a year late.This isn't even as tricky as IRL economies to manage since PA could literally create shit out of thin air if they cared to, both supply and demand.
>>2848191The point is that PA fucked over lifeskillers because SILVER is useless now
>>2848437its just sub 1% of the population having a melty that their silver hoarding can't buy them instant endgame gratification this time around, this will blow over in a few days but we'll have a slightly more self sufficient population and higher margins on food so ehThe real lifeskiller apocalypse is still coming

desu the top meal, which lasts 2hours and I don't even want to know all the shit you have to go thru to make it, beeing only 400k silver is a bit slave tier, the draughts are expensive but the problem is a material shortage probably
>>2849175The cooking itself is actually not that bad and gathering is fun (tm) But once you start processing cron meals it makes the whole ordeal worse than afk fishing in velia istg
>>2849175It really is the processing that takes ages. The rest is painless if you do a batch here and there.
>>2847830Lifeskillers barely spend any money on this game, they only need you people to add to the number of players online.

Should I get into bartering before or after I save for the carrack?
>>2850740you need a warehouse full of barter goods to really make money, get the lower level shit done while you're saving up
neat, they added this stupid option only after everyone has made the $10 purchase
>>2846042>Brazilians still finding ways to shit up MMOs even with their own serversTime is a circle.
>>2850982They never stopped doing that, they just mostly play uncshit like tibia and ultima online or random maplestory pservers and yes they always exploit
>>2848817That wasn't the case though. Gathering, before the byproduct nerf update, was very profitable. With TET Manos clothes and tool, and a TRI preonne set and a basic life mastery crystal page coming to around 100b silver investment in gear, you could be getting more than 3b per hour, 2b in sharps alone just from the byproduct exchange. That could increase even more if you knew what you were doing, and chose good spots, and not some basic red meat gathering. The problem began when they nerfed it to the ground so now the good spots drop shit amounts of sharps, and by buffing bartering, they made the next step of gathering pointless.Let's take for example lion meat gathering. If you had a good class and a good rotation, you could be getting easily 3b per hour, with some lucky WON drops on top of that. After 5 hours of gathering, you could also cook the jungle borgir submeal for 1 hour, making 1.6b-2.2b per hour, depending on the market trends. Now, the gathering profit is in the gutter after the nerfs, and I can just go bartering for 1.5b per hour every hour, until I need a restock, with huge afk windows of 20-40 minutes, that doesn't require purchasing weight like cooking or alchemy, plus the lucky special barters, plus the profit from crow coins, etc.
>>2850982Glorious commies fucking shit up again.

I upgraded my ekleta ring to PRI and i deeply regret it, i rushed to hit a bracket for the next boss and now i'm stuck. Can't even grind second zone.Is dying with red karma the only way to downgrade it so i can exchange it back to NOV khara? I feel like such an idiot...

whats a good mining rotation

>>2852609i figured i'd also be getting mysterious ores in the meanwhile, is it that bad
>>2852649Well if you want max mysterious ore/sharps then go pilgrim with mousemovement enabledYou would be better off grinding + buying sharps with grindmoney but if you dont want to do that pilgrims would be the best choice for your goalUsually mysterious ore doesnt drop as much from mining as from grinding too...

Man this event cant even fill any preordersThey considerably nerfed this shit
>>2855470In the current meta, tap them away if you're not desperate for silver. If you luck out and get a tet bank the money else you lost a couple of millions, who cares.

Last time I asked on here, people said don't use crons to get armor up to silent. The problem is there are no distorted stones on the market (plus they are 5 billion minimum, way beyond my ability to purchase if they were available anyway). I have 64k crons left. Can I use them or just wait until they give free stuff again?
>>2858493where are you grinding? 5b isn't that unreachablealso it looks like you havent even finished your hyperboostFG sucks and is cursed btw, even with the lowered pity
>>2858527I don't really grind, I just do weekly dark rifts and occasional Garmoth. Grinding is just too boring tome for me to focus on it and i burn out after a single session. I usually just do story mode stuff but i ran out of that so I'm just kind of not doing anything. I hate life skilling too so I don't do that content. Also, what Hyperboost am I missing?
>>2858539you get enough stuff from hyperboost to get 2 oct kharas, emma bartali's logbook I thinkit's fine if you don't want to grind but if you're not going to try at all to make silver by any other means then yeah, you just have to wait for handouts to upgrade your gear that you don't need anyway because you don't do anything and you don't want to engage with any of the contentgl with that
>>2858547Well, I don't engage with any of the content because i don't like it, simple as that. I just like doing the story; oh and the combat is fun, but not mindlessly grinding for hours on end being bored to death. And I don't know how you are supposed to get two OCTs, from what I saw there is only enough material for one OCT and a bunch of SEP, and that's counting the log book, which I didn't do all of that either because some of the stuff it requires you to do doesn't appeal to me either or I am not skilled enough to do.Anyway, time to stop playing for another six months I guess until the next big event. I only came back because of the hyperboost, finally have more than 620 gear score after years of being stuck there so didn't really play much because of how hostile the progression is in this game. :-)
>>2858560bruh I think cookie clickers are too hardcore for youyou make velia fishcucks look like god gamersfuck outta here
>>2858573¯\_(ツ)_/¯
thinking of dipping gradually next week too, it's mildly infuriating to grind>loot disappear as there are too many mobs and the pets dont pick them up fast enough even with agile command>becomes overweight every 10-15 minutes of grind and have to go dump garbage>market doesn't have vell heart for sale>only viable grind spots are elvia for cups, hexa for silver and yeezy highland for kabua>still doing the same damage at elvia even though my AP is way higher than the recommended stat
>>2858720there's also a hidden game mechanic about aggro, mobs seem to drop aggro and reset their hp if I grab 12 or 13 mobs at once, annoying afmobs from random events seem to ignore this limit but then my skills also have a hard limit of how many mobs they can hit so when there are too many of them my skills end up doing damage unevenly and most of the mobs survive far longer
>>2858720>>becomes overweight every 10-15 minutes of grind and have to go dump garbageDont tell me you dont know about the horse tech
>>2858762yeah the aggro limit is surprising for a game centered around grinding, but it likely ties in with all the mechanics behind looting and stuff....how does mob-tagging work in this game? Does the first hit on a mob determine who's loot it is or the deathblow or everyone who hits a mob gets to loot it?
Is there any way for me to squeeze more ap into this vs edania monsters? Trying to get up to the cap for the new content. but I am just off a bit.
>>2859340I believe its final hit that determines who gets the loot unless you are at a group spot in which case its as long as someone in your group got the last hit everyone in the group up to max number of people for spot get loot. I haven't experimented how it works if you have 3 at a 2 person spot though so cant tell you on that front.
>>2859811Also I'll get the fused crystals of brutal decimation (for +6ap) as soon as I can just kinda need to be able to do new stuff to get them in the first place.
You may henceforth call me Qween of the Labyrinth
Sexiest Shai outfit?
I'm a happy Shai
>>2859340I think the aggro limit is a weird relic from the past because new spots don't have it as far as I can tell, like when orbita starts spawning tons of mobs just before the giga golem they all aggro to you no problem.
>>2861664Very nice!
aggro limits (and short leashes) are probably about not letting someone round up an entire hunting ground and then aoe bomb them like back in L2 days
>>2862218comes back to >>2861750 in how it's a relic of the past. new spots are designed in a way where this issue fundamentally cannot happen but you still see weird aggro limits in old spots like the serendia elvia areas where mobs are way more scattered and still spawn from things like tents

Man this game feels like it used to be really good, i just got to the 50 hour mark and the game handed me a billion completely trivialising everything i enjoyed about it.What a shame, the node system was really intriguing and i liked how the systems interacted but now there's no point in playing anymore. The combat also seems pretty fun but the game handed me crazy gear right at the start so i've never been in a second of danger making any fights i've had boring as fuck.This whole experience did make me wanna get crimson desert, this game without mmo elements seem like it'd be amazing.
>>2877249wow an entire billion?! HOLY SHIT
>>2877249Silver is like zimbabwe money, one billion is nothing
upskirt hehe
>>2877252>>2877257i get it becomes trivial at a later point but it absolutely ruined any need for interaction with the sistems where i'm at, thats more than ten times the amount i've made from playing so far, if you don't see the problem there idk what to tell you
>>2877264you're retarded breh
>>2877264>more than ten times the amount i've made from playing so far>one billionhave you been playing for 10 minutes
>>2877276you breathe through your mouth and your mother dresses you funny.do you have a point to make or did you just wanna screech a lil
>>2877290he's right though, you are a retard
>>2877296it absolutely ruins early game progression>>2877289what the fuck are you on about i dont have to get a single material anymore i can buy everythign for every quest thrown my way, sure maybe 100 hours in it becomes like nothing but rn i can buy 10 times what i need of any material and it'll come out to about 4 million, so what the fuck are you faggots talking about
>>2877318im not reading your retarded post, retard. quit the game, you're not gonna make it
>>2877319hang yourself and ease the burden on your parents
>>2877318What are you trying to make? What gear do you have? Mid game and later gets very expensive. I do agree the game really rushes you through the leveling process and then the normal game routine starts once you hit max level.
>>2877249>>2877264I'll try to answer in a kinder way to make you understand. That 1 billion is such a miniscule amount, not only in later stages of the game, even for you right now it's nothing. With a seasonal character you can go grind in Jade forest and get more than 1 bill per hour. And that's a spot where you can grind with only your tuvala gear, I'm not even talking about the catchup gear that the game will throw at you soon enough. What you think is early game, was mid-game 3 years ago. What early game is now, starts at 290 AP, somewhere around the gear needed for the Hexe Sanctuary purgatory where you will be stuck for a while. I'll throw some numbers just to get an idea of how much things cost in early game. Your recommended DEC Tuvala armor that you may exchange for a Silent armor piece, may cost up to 30 billions in crons if you get unlucky with the taps. Tapping your first PEN Sovereign weapon will cost around 43 billions in crons on average, 87 billions if you fill the pity. On the good side? Once you get into some decent grindspots, like DSR, you will be making close to 2.5b/h, if you can tolerate the semi-afk nature of bartering you will be making 3b/2 hours, assuming you are around the pc for more than 4 hours per day, and then you have the full afk passive incomes, like a good worker empire and farming, that can bring up to 1b per day combined, just by being online. That, along with whatever event is running and having the knowledge to utilize whatever the game throws at you, can go a long way. Don't complain about the freebies you get now, you can't even grasp the late game costs.
>>2877337I was mostly interacting with the life systems and nodes since the game handed me gear that trivialised combat completely, i was gonna check out gear crafting but then the game handed me this penv tuvala stuff which seems ridicilous for where i'm at. Again the systems in this game look really fun and engaging but it feels like it just made the next like 30 hours of gameplay a pointless slog since the quest rewards arent even a precentage compared to what th game just throws at me.
No more (You)s fucker, you are so stupid. I accept your concession btw
>>2877318I started in about March this year and you are 100% right about everythingAs I still like playing the game I just started doing a sort of Iron Man thing were I try not to use the central market at all except for selling stuff.Makes progress slow as fuck but who cares, oldfags do nothing but complain about the endgame anyway so why bother rushing there?Combat is all about the feel of slaughtering mob groups prolly right up to endgame (except maybe for the Black Shrine bosses which you can try doing with low tier equip / not equipping the light orbs..)Also ignore the forced edgelording in this thread....the game attracts a lot of horny teens, best to just ignore their retardation
>>2877373The gear crafting system is from very old systems. (I mean they are all still there so you could play with them and they'd still work) They were neat but also extremely grindy to the point of disbelief and I think the change away from it was probably for the better (though it does hold a soft spot in my heart).
>>2877384thanks dude, that's pretty sad, i really wish i could go back and play this game in like 2018 or something, as is it's not for me anymore i guess, enjoy you time with it tho
>>2877384>edgelording>horny teensyou are spoonfeeding a zoomie retard who parrots twitter posts as his opinions. if you can't tell this by the way he types and the things he says you're lost.
>>2877398i'm older than you, never been on twitter and been on this site longer than you, these are opinions i had while playing this game, you seem both dumb and insufferably arrogant
>>28774060/5
>>2877318you're like some hobo retard that gets mad because the govt sent him a welfare check for $500 and it ruined his "progression" of digging through trash cansthere's a couple logical solutions to this conundrum but I think the one where you just fuck off is probably best for all parties
>>2877413do you play games with godmode on?
>>2877420In other games I play SSF or other self imposed restrictions because I'm not a baby brain retard who emotionally crumples the moment the game reveals I'm not playing efficiently
I just purchased godmode from CM for 1,000,000,000 silver and have officially beaten Black Desert, ask me anything

>>2878021i like the purple and gold but fuck what an ugly outfit.
>>2878021slut
>>2877264Literally nothing you complained about is unique to bdo nigga. It's a ten year old MMO and from korea of all countries
>>2877249It used to be, now they have to bribe people to log in with tens of thousands of crons and hammers worth like 3-4k crons each. And after that they need you to AFK fish 20 hours a day to keep player count inflated. It works for now but who knows for how long. This is what happens when there's no real competition around.
>>2878508Plus you're not even supposed to play the game more than a few hours a week anymore. They just handed out full soveriegns/OCT kharazads for new/returning players and shit out the crons to upgrade them each week 100% AFK. In a few months they'll have to give out more, I'm guessing Edania armors are next on the chopping block. Anyone actively playing is quite literally wasting their time for almost no benefit, but that's how the game is now.
>>2878553>waste timeMost non subhumans actually play the game for fun not for random crappy item that used to take effort to get 1 year agoUnironically the journey is the fun of the game
>still pretending gear is your reason for playing
I think the new outfit looks good
>>2877249you are right because you like videogames, PA just throw you into the hamster wheel, but that basicalli happens with everysingle game after its first season
1/5th of a tap every hour just to pity. yep, i am living my life correctly :)
so AP is capped and shit after cap but +% damage is good no matter what?
these niggas think wearing gear that was endgame a year ago as they stand around in time ERPing with other fat men is the whole point of """playing,""" its pretty sad. No wonder they get burnt out and bitter when they don't even have a reason for doing any of that shit because they're genuinely retarded. Now they think waiting for handouts is the point of the game.
>>2879138yeah!
>>2879150that might be why they always respond with such scathing anger whenever anyone says anything remotely critical of the game or a certain system
are you guys liking the new outfit?
>>2879383no
>>2879367you are confused
>>2879349so is it a very good idea to use things like this or magic crystal - back attack for spots where im capped? presumably not since they're cheap as fuck, im guessing im missing something
>>2879400set up your lotml worker nodes
>>2879400this replaces the crit damage crystal so it's questionableotherwise you do get more damage if you can get back attack consistently
weren't they going to fix ocean pathing

I would bet 1k dollars that not a single PA dev playtested these challenges.
>>2885348which challenges? the new stupid jumping puzzles?
>>2885474Yes, all the Tachyon Traces are pretty much 100% platforming, the Legacy ones are chores that so far have you kill some mobs.
>>2885585I was able to do a good bit of the tachyon ones but there are some where the platforms are farther apart and it just doesn't work well for my class.
>>2885348they're trying to be GW2 but failed to realize how shitty the engine is for anything other than combat, and can't make enough content for anything more than combat either
>>2885607>there are some where the platforms are farther apartYe, that's where Agent comes. After the 4th platform puzzle I realized most classes will suffer there.
>>2884293Lol yeah, I already spend more on this shit than I would have if I just bought the damn Pen Debo and I can still spend about as much as a pen Debo would cost me

I wish there were some way to grind the Essences of Aether, e.g. them being a drop at the Highest Tier spots, or perhaps even a drop at certain lower-tier spots. I wouldn't mind sacrificing some income if I could accelerate growth to Shining.

Procrastinated and phoned it in this week by doing the easy bosses. At least the rewards aren't terrible despite how easy they are.Anyway, post 'em.
>>2889427The rewards for the nerfed bosses are extremely bad.
>>2889427Love the easy rewards, simple as.
>>2889767Not as good as the proper ones, sure, but as there's nothing that I really need from them I'm only really missing out on a few Essence of Dawns>>2889853Nice work. I recently tried out Mystic again, in Awakening for Dark Rift bosses and the like. She seemed fun but I wasn't very good and didn't really figure out how to get skills to flow nicely.

I just tried Sulfur Golems for the first time and I can get to 2022 AP if I use a Frenzy Draught, but I'm missing out on a lot of HP recovery so it's a bit sketchy. I could use a Harmony and get more HP recovery and 10% monster damage reduction, plus some more % special damage, but I would lose out on 22 AP. I suppose if I save my 100% BSR for the Hornstone then I will definitely be over the cap and have no trouble with the DPS check.

What's the point of all the armor glowy things like these? NOBODY walks around with the appearance of base edana armor pieces, and the glow only works on that.There's a reason nobody is buying them despite being a totally new item, just make it so the glow works and cash shop items and they would be great.
>>2897890Forgot pic
>>2897899idk, its stupid not even the outfit version glows. Edana armor doesn't look good either. I find it funny that all those glow colors are basically minlist trash that'll never sell.
i really dont want to keep buying vendor crons, i have sunk like 300b into my necklace and still haven't hit it, i think i should just stop playing until they give out freebies
>>2897995What's your neck at now? How close are you to the pity?
>>28979968 taps >>2884293
>>2897998Almost there anon!
>>2897995I also dont buy vendor crons, just saving money until Patrigio event
>>2897995Unless you really need the AP just save up money and wait for a nigh vendor event like>>2898198said.
>>2898198>>2898235when's that likely to come back?
>>2898296We are due one, the last one was over a month before the ball.
>>2897995Welcome to BDO kiddo, I've got all my khara DECs in under 5 taps
>>2897995I don't buy vendor crons, I rather pity my vell
why's the general for this game so dead
>>2900706The game requires skill, dedication and effort, things outside of average 4chan users venn diagram so to say
>>2900706There's not much to talk about. The new grindspots are towerslop, there's nothing to talk about them. The only mechanic Aphrodon has is "i-frame or FG the red circle". That's it. Grind that spot for 1/5 of a tap per hour if you are lucky, and the tap will still need crons because the timegate wasn't harsh enough. With average luck and tapping everything at 50% of pity, I would need 360 hours of 1 twilight per hour, just to get the AP to move to the first Edania 2 weekly boss or move to the second spot capped. You want to do lifeskills? Sure, come try them after they nerfed them to the ground by butchering the sharps/hour intake. Semi afk lifeskills? They all suck compared to being a barterdrone.
>>2902938grinding the rice fields is suffering. I do not like this spot. Zeph, floodplanes (floodplanes was mixed as it was fun but worse loot than easier spots) and tene were both better.
There's a lot to talk about but apparently the only people who come here are afkers/PVErs in nobody guilds
>>2903433If you want to talk about pvp and guild gossip you can just join the trannies in the discords - they love that stuff
>>2903497>everything I don't like is trannyexactly the sort of low IQ post you'd expect from a grindfag who doesn't actually engage with anything you need to be geared for
>>2903520I know the scene, it all gets discussed on discords and they're all full of trannies - actual trannies pretending to speak like a girl in voice
>>2903529You seem weirdly obsessed with the 0.1% tranny population, you sure you're not a chaser?
>crystal event extended againIt's clear that the dev team wants this shit to be gone to have more room in game design but some small limp dicked kike in upper management wants to sell more restoration coupons
>>2903538Its not my fault every discord has a few of them, clearly more than 0.1% in this gameMy obsession stems from the fact that I wish death upon them and it gets on my nerves everytime I have to hear them speak or see them spam their shitty opinions in alliance discord
>>2903563I feel you man but my experience has been 99% typical dudebros/dads/zoomerchuds and the occasional tranny that appears ends up guildhopping within a monthAnd the fact remains that this is a MMORPG with open world PVP and a huge amount of the active content is indeed pvp and guild drama which this general has very little of (very little of anything really)
>>29035864chan just doesnt mesh well with BDO, since you can freely be a racist chud in game and as long as you dont spam nigger you can even be racist in most discords there is barely any reason to use 4chan as a community platform for BDOSo the only upside of 4chan would be the anonymity, which is just eh
>>2903550They're extending until they fix the bugs where mobs are immune and you keep taking damage.
I need seven more ores for the second set of 25 Kabua Fragments, where is the quickest place to grind those out? 1950 - 2100 AP depending on buffs, level 64 since I hear it's related to minimising the level difference between you and monsters
>>2903935Bruh, just go scarecrowsWhatever theory you heard sounds retardedThey just reduced the droprate in some high frequency spawning spots like Hexe
>>2903961Yeah I guess so, I just don't really care for it. I prefer easy grinds unless it's a low mob density spot. Not that I have much choice about going there unless I can tap two DECs soon.
>>2903520tranny
>>2904025NO U
>>2903586Do people even do a lot of uncapped anymore? I log in here and there for some aos and BA but I would assume it's about the same as it was last year where it's mostly just the top 3-5 guilds doing gvgs on arsha here and there. Haven't been able to get into an RBF for a while now either since the event ended. I saw that now you can finally see how many people are queueing up which is great but the queue system is still really dumb for it. Guild league doesn't seem crazy active compared to the first two seasons either.
>>2905472you can still get some RBF games going after NW on NAuncapped PvP has been dumb with everyone and their dogs using DP dawn crystals though
>>2905845At least PA is sorta acknowledging the issue now, maybe we'll get a fix in a year
literally unplayable
>>2906304i don't get how people get stuck there. never happened to me in 43k barters
>>2906362not stuck, it's just unsightly clipping
>>2906281absolutely no chance they would "fix" that, DP meta has always been the winner
>>2884293I'm having the time of my life haha
FUCK ME I CORRUPTED THE FILES AGAIN
double chance for gather minigame is good to get more sharps, yeah?
so while hunting you can now have sovereign critrate + deathblow in your main gear?kinda based but unfortunately my hunting striker dont have no sovereigns

what tool should you equip in the combat setup now?
>>2907180so since you should be quite the expert on reinstalls now...What backups should I do when reinstalling? Does this ingame settings upload save all my ui adjustments as well?
>>2907882I think PA actually just forgot about it
>To activate an extracted Knot effect, you must use a Black Spirit's Claw on a Pearl outfit.This is so retarded

>>2908651what's piss jug in korean?
I got almost seven billion from the removal of all the spirit stone materials
>>2909037
>>2909050Fucking nice lmao, what did you have the most of?
>>2909057I was crafting tons of these after we found out we will get compensation for themSince I do alot of alchemy I had tons of mats
>>2909073Ah fuck yeah I should have done that, I have lots of materials too but I didn't check what the compensation was going to be, so never thought to make a bunch. Oh well
Now that we have freed up the tool slot perhaps it's time to bring this baby back?
>>2909302only BDO Classic can save the game now
>>2909302I miss that thing lol, man I don't know if I was too retarded to turn the brightness back then but wasn't the game a lot darker in the beta and the early release?
>>2909443I actually meant to use this, my oldest gear screenshot, but I misclicked and didn't realise until I had posted and read the Renown Score section.I think Classic would be interesting for some people (me) but most people who play today wouldn't like it. I almost think it might be better as a single player in some ways, which I suppose leads to Crimson Desert, not that I've played it.
>>2908987gukbyokyeongyuk
>>2909485The remastered graphics settings have made everything brighter. If you go back to the old High or Very High settings nights become much darker.
It's September and we still haven't gotten DX12 and FSR 3.1. It was an August roadmap
Haven't checked out the update yet. Does the life skill gear change imply that you can stack multiple life tools that give bonuses to weight, or did they think of that and remove the LT bonus from them?
>>2910201nigga where my enhanced seed pouch
Crimson Desert is getting castle building, ships, romance and a bunch of other things, and watching the videos got me thinking.There's no way they continue developing this game, it's so fucking old. It looks dated compared to CD, the engine can't even handle jumping minigames and PA clearly wants to do fun things. Next ball forget a time traveling expansion, we're time traveling to BDO 2. The engine is there, the devs want to expand, game is getting stagnant. It's time to move on.>>2910389engine can't handle it
>>2910574Not for the next 5 years Game is doing too well with minimal effort, it makes no sense from a business perspective
>>2910574>BDO 2Oh boy can't wait to go back to 6 classes and two regions and wait years to see if my favorite class even makes the cut
>>2910574I've been saying this. They put all their best devs on crimson and left us with the C team, still are.
someone in my guild just dropped a grunil helmWOW!
Time for my weekly hour of Aphrodon to do the quest, hopefully get enough twilights to tap my earring once for +1 DP because I have to suffer the humiliation ritual of tapping accs for +0 AP PEN -> HEX.
>>2908642please respond, im trying to decide whether to patrigio the class i want to try or wait for season since i won't have any more character slots after creating her
>>2911491Loyalties and outside of that they might give them away during the two Balls a year. I just don't pay attention to it because I have so much saved up.
>>2911594well i already bought the loyalty one so patrigio it is
Hope you guys are prepared for the crystal apocalypse when the event is over
>>2912563yes I have now fully committed to the boat life so my crystals are safe
>>2912563I have stable internet so I dont die in pve
why did they release helm, gloves and boots with no armor?
>>2910574Idk if you are trying to will this into existence but it's stupidity on every angle. They will sooner update the engine than do a sequel.
>>2913084What was the transition to Remastered like anyhow? Were any of you fossils around then? Was it a total shitshow?
>>2913218That was just a graphical update and not really to do with the engine, I remember it being very smooth, for the most part. There were things like certain damage effects only showing up in remastered, effectively forcing you to use it. Also nights used to be very dark on the old graphics settings.It came along side a re-branding of sorts, the game used to be titled 'Black Desert Online' but at the same time as the remastered graphics they dropped the 'Online' part of the name.You've reminded me of these old videos from the closed beta, I think it's nice to look back at what the game used to be like and how it was better in so many ways.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RfNUvsl4Ho4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WehV0na9YJQ
t1s are hilarious now
Not being able to reform my PEN Tuvala gear with a Karanda's Heart is losing me a crystal slot for some alts, which is a loss of one Crystal of Breathing Verdure.They removed the option to exchange PEN Tuvala for boss weapons, which you could reform, so I think the option to reform Tuvala gear should be added.
The EU go-to contact person for the camp tuvala guild that gets advertised by both the official discord and ingame notices is some sort of mutt tranny with a beard and forced girl voice. You lost, chuds, it's Black Sissies Online now and every sprout will be groomed into playing shai.
>>2914686when they say "pearl gifts" do they mean actual pearl boxes? if so i might leave my guild for a bit and join that
>>2914686i fucking hate seeing shai in pvp
>>2914701I don't know, i'm straight. Probably just some costume/pet special code given out to whoever wins guild events, like hide and seek or penis butt. Really doubt it's pure pearls, and to all who join.
one of the horses i was training randomly got all courser skills, but its a female and i dont need any females, should i just imperial delivery it or try to awaken and sell on market?
>>2914721If you have spare mats lying around making a T9 is decent profit thanks to all the free crons we get, a good way to convert them into silver. There's only a handful of female T9s on the market, dunno what happened, there used to be 40 pages of them. So it'll sell too and not sit there for weeks.>>2914705Why?
>>2914721If you need T10 materials then now is the best time to imperial with the event going. I have a spare T10 that I'm going to imperial, though I don't think I get much extra for that.>>2914746>free cronsCompare the cost of Crons to save half of the courser material versus the extra courser material needed without Crons it isn't worth using them.
Thinking to start playing BDO, anything I need to know before hand?
>>2914855Most of the modern progression happens once you reach level 60. Also find a guild you can ask questions because there is a lot going on in bdo. Also there isn't that much group content. I like the game a lot but it does take some getting around. Also also classes get an awakening build at level 60ish which is an entirely different way to play them I'd recommend playing around (use trial function too) with several classes to find one you like!
>>2914746I fucking hate the speed boost from shai, game-breaking piece of shitand those little shits always have DP gear on top of DP crystals, why the fuck did PA introduce those 30 DP crystals, where's my fucking +30 PvP AP crystals
>>2914686>nowwith all these grown men pretending to be women, dressing them up, and whoring out for attention, many are bound to have their trans awakening :)
>>2915267the only confirmed troon I've come across mains male class, meanwhile my toxic masculinity wigger guild runs around in bikinis
>>2915455>the only confirmed troon I've come across mains male class100% bullshit, I'd bet 1000$ that in the history of mmos no tranny ever played malesFaggots sure, but trannies never - or they're just not a tranny
>>2915477See this is the sort of absolute certainty only a total idiot could have and we both know you wouldn't bet shit if you actually might have to pay outAnyway I don't believe in the AGP to egg pipeline since the online troonsphere is virulently anti-gooner
>>2915491Nah, 1000$ is not that muchJust enough to prove a point and its not gonna break bank or anything, I would definitely take that bet just if it was magically possible to know the truth, to know that I'm right and rub it in your faceDont even know what you're saying in the 2nd sentence thoughever
>>2915501not beating the total idiot allegation
>>2915507Being an idiot is more fun generally so its not an insult
>>2915514you have a point, good on you for owning it
>um ACTUALLY pretending to be a woman is hypermasculine chud behavior!KEK the denialdon't worry sweetie, you'll have your awakening eventually :)
>>2915529doesn't work on me sis, sorry
Enough with this discourse on the epistemology of trannies, what's a good guide on horse training? I finally feel like working towards my Krogdalo.
>>2914940Evil witch! Slandering hard working Shai.
>>2915540Krogdalo is all about doing your dailies/weeklies for fernRest can be bought from afk fishing money and you'd probably end up in a positive than if you actually were doing training lolOr just get lucky with all handout mythical censers

Should my PvE artifact have crit damage or crit chance for hunting? Does my PvE gear even matter outside of kharazad for BS crystals?
>>2916626You want sov pve gear for hunting because they increased the HP of monsters to compensate for that (nice one PA niggers)You want Deathblow on your artifacts, you want crit%dmg and attackspeed increases in your crystals
>>2915491>the online troonsphere is virulently anti-goonerThat doesn't make any sense
wtf is this
>>2917012Did you ask that in guild chat as well?
>>2917012A group in your guild placed top 5 for a black shrine boss rush (group bosses) so everyone in the guild gets rewards.
i think its soulful how your character waves when you come back from being afk. any other examples of this?
that point in time when they are giving free hammers for gear you don't even know wtf is

I played a bit when the game first launched in NA, I believe I had a 57 Musa. Is the game still worth getting into? I imagine I'll basically be starting from scratch.
>>2922405You will be starting completely from scratch, there was a transfer of publisher from Kakao to PA and if you didn't declare your agreement your data wasn't transferred. But now is a great time to start, there's a lot of help if you want it and the game is in a mostly good state.
