First time playing this game... too many classes to choose. Any recommendation or doesn't matter what class?
>>2931195If you tell us your preferred playstyle we can direct you to something. But making new charas is really easy and fast after you get established so its not a big deal. Takes most people some time to find the class that's right for them.
>>2931211Usually my go is Melee tank or not, I been looking at the Berserk and Seraph, they look pretty good.
>>2931214Those are both good classes right now and they're really easy to play. Tanks aren't a real thing in the game though, picking a class is more about what specific fighting archetypes and visuals you enjoy, or whether or not the key input combo flow of a class is fun for you. Your first class doesn't really matter though so just pick what looks fun and figure out the rest later
wheres the >maintenance guy
>all the geared people have been grinding non-stop since start and are now close to fully geared?>regular players are starting to get enough gear to get to the spot>nerf the spots now!
>>2931355The Edania 2 spots have been utter garbage beside the money. All the enhancing mats drop at such a shitty rate it's not even fun.
Ayy
I tried Aphrodon at 2003 AP. It did not go well.
>>2931214Seraph is good at certain grindspots but has a lot of problemsZerker is one of the best classes in the game and the easiest grinder besides awakening guardian. It's an insanely loaded class that has everything. Succession is considered the better specAre you interested in PVP? Succ zerkers are one of the more valued large-scale classes.
if you play a zerker you're instantly (and rightly) deemed a loser irl so choose wisely

What if instead of Black Desert Online it was called Gay Penis Online and we all played striker?
If so and so class is so broken, why does everyone play Maegu/Witchard/Dosa or some shit instead of that class?

How to transfer silver in this game? I would like to RMT but i dunno how. Have someone bought currency?
>>2936137You hire a pinoy to take over your account and grind for you, thats how it worksIts called piloting, all the top pvp guilds do it
>>2936137That's lame, what do you hope to get from it?
>>2936150>That's lame, what do you hope to get from it?money to increase my reserves.>>2936144>You hire a pinoy to take over your account and grind for you, thats how it works>Its called piloting, all the top pvp guilds do itwow, its bad. I thought i could just transfer gold from my acc without any responsibilities.This game can give me the whole 1 dollar per hour, shame it is impossible to RMT comfortably in it.
>>2936166>money to increase my reserves.And do what with those reserves?
>>2936185>And do what with those reserves?Live on % from them on cheap land plot in a place without work. Live workfree and happy life using this strategy.
>>2936166can't you just buy stuff off the pearl shop and sell it in the cm?Like value pack subs and stuff like that, there's always order open for that
>>2936333ah forget it I thought you wanted to buy, but you want to sell

I found a bunch of super strong trolls in the wilderness out to the east of Event Horizon, it took perhaps 10 minutes to kill one, but it dropped no loot at all when it died. A bit disappointing to be honest.

So archeage chronicles combat fucking sucks lol. BDO will remain the king of action combat in MMOs for the next decade and idk if that's a good or a bad thing.
>>2940795I mean is anyone even trying to surpass it there?
>>2940827If it's not the combat then I don't know what they're trying to surpass if anything at all. There's like 3 of these new world dark soulsy clones coming out and all of them have worse combat than new world which i cannot believe is beginning to look like a high bar these days and have nothing on vindictus. I wasn't even expecting bdo but better or anything but all the upcoming action combat kmmos rook and pray the same like they're made from a base template. I guess it's a good thing I'm not getting tired of BDO any time soon but it sucks that korea isn't really trying anymore.
Is Byeot County Gukbap good for Imperial Meals?I have plenty of all the ingredients except meat, so I'd be buying that from the marketplace. Seems decent to me.

I have got my Ekleta Earrings and Rings to PEN, which gets me to 401 AP. Grinding Aphrodon should be a walk in the park now, but I really have no enthusiasm for it. I need another 75 WON Shards to get the crystal before I can reasonably go to Hermesia, which seems a lot more interesting a grind spot. I'd much rather have a few tough fights in the middle of my grind than just have to dodge this bloody scarecrow.
>>2945817What class? cuz i've done hermesia with 2150 as a suck nova so skipping 'crows is possible, got plenty of pity stones too. woosa can do at 2110, wizard 2100

>>2948997yeah it's like some ancestor worship stuff it's got nothing to do with turkeys
So... crystal apocalypse next patch?
>>2950258Perhaps the extensions of the no-break event were due to PA finalising a change to crystal breaking were, on death, crystals have a chance to crack rather than disappear, and those cracks can be healed with an item. Unfortunately the most likely item would probably be Magical Shards, or something from an simple alchemy recipe that utilises those.
>>2950613nah they just couldn't fix magaia's bug where any class with a pet dies after 40 minutesor the metrics are now lower and X amount of deaths are acceptable, in any case they will never ever remove or ease the burden thanks to restore coupons. there's even a new coupon coming with the grinding pass!! enjoy!!!
>>2950976I read about some Magaia bug with pet classes but is that really it? Like do you automagically go from 100% hp to 0 after 40 minutes of starting the spot? lmao

I actually have the gearscore to apply for the Masterclass tournament this time, are there any drawbacks to entering if there's a very high chance of me losing immediately because I'm not great and lack practice at PvP?

>>2952021yes that was it thank you

update gave me a virus, way to ruin the game pa, also kinda fascist to think i need to shekleta's and force me to pilot with the rest of the end gamers.
this game is stupid, you ripped ideas that you put your name on, literally from other games you ripped them without any credit, you are a patent fraudster, your shops are dumb, they solicit and are over priced with little reward, and your updates are stolen content with more micro transactions, your plot is bad, your development is bad, no one likes you any more, and we all wish you would uninstall from the developer tree, and wrist yourselves. and if you damage control this, its more of a fact than anything else, you are a scam game that has no soul, and just craves money. but thats not the worst, its that you blatantly rip people's ideas off as your own. and thats pathetic.
>>2957705>>2958659damn, nc soft is this desperate?
>>2957705>>2958659Did they EoS Aion2 even before release or what happened?

When does BDO even become fun lol
I have rented my tenth Old Moon fence to go all-out on CP from moles for this event, with just a couple of mole spawns I'm getting tons of Blush Leaves.
>>2962174once they remove ap caps or increase it to 50-70%
it's so crazy to me that the same people that made bdo also made crimson desert because of how anti gooner the latter is heck even the dlc is going to allow you to be gay (which is weird considering most of the players are straight guys)
BDO is very mild on the gooner fits when you compare it to korean mmosAnd CD was trying to be another elden ring not an mmo
>>2962049yes, it's BDOverPA got outclassed in goon now there's nothing lefthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXIn6InoK9s
I'm almost there on most things, except fucking tanning. Are lizards in Serendia still the best?

>>2962829Okay thanks, I'm not really minmaxing so I think I'll stick with lizards
>>2962665Why should i listen to that guy? Will asian judas also kill this game?
I only need the Tukar piece for the map, am I better off going to regular Sulfur with a fast-moving alt e.g. Maehwa and just targeting Tukars, or should I still be doing Dehkia? Not considering income, of course.

>>2970124Hey twin, yes save the stack nowI'm doing the rest on a 260 stack but lower would be fine too
>>2970124You can save the stack and use bdoworkshop to find an alternate stack that won't waste silver if it does go
>>2970348well the stack is 322 so i can either waste some of it to go for my sovereign to sep (workshop recommends 290) or i can try to dec another kharazad piece later which seems dumber
>>2970132I pitied mine a few days ago
>>2960683im saving this
i rage uninstalled last night and i'm already reinstalling. i'm hopeless
>>2972519man to add, there's just no other game that's as satisfying to chain skills in to move and do stuff in as bdo is. i will probably never be able to completely give this game up just because of the desire to act out muscle memory that has been built into me and refined over years. here's a random picture of a dark knight that isn't mine

>>2974287cap, I dont think anyone can genuinely like Aion2 with post nut claritythe combat is ass, the world is soulless, the characters extremely ugly except for the hypersexualized hentai bodies which makes them look good apparently, its a pump and dump by ncsoft which people should know better by now and the bossfights are just going to be simon says bullshit like lost ark
>>2974287payment sent!
>>2974311I played tw version for probably 100 hours on 250 ping and playing on 30 ping with NA servers feels so good. I get that you're not into it but for me I love the way the game feels. The option to play it as a click to move is a big plus for me I generally dislike wasd movement but bdo is different with its combo system>>2974382>person likes something I don't like>must be a paid shill fagright right I should stick to hivemind
>>2974385>doomposts retarded garbage promoting the latest pump and dump coomerware>n-n-n-no I r-r-really enjoy it and it's not for the 2 cents from mturkyeah, bro we totally believe you.
>>2974385aion 2 mindbroke all the other cuckrean game communities, their decade old slop can't compete anymore
same old song and dance
I've said it before and I'll say it again, if a new MMO comes out and is good, especially if it's a K-MMO, that is a good thing in the long term. PA isn't incompetent at all, just somewhat complacent at the moment, due to having no real competitors. If Aion 2 is a boot up the arse I think we'll all benefit.
>>2974912Yeah but Aion2 is already documented and solved so PA is not gonna do shit since it looks pretty bad for the western marketThese retarded korean companies need to stop doing 1 year of korea release into global, and just do a full global release at the same time
I'm happily sunk costed on BDO, when I take a break (still fishing ofc) I'll play any KSlop but NCSlop
>>2974499>doomposts retarded garbage promoting the latest pump and dump coomerwarelet me go back to what I said there: >15.2k hours bros and I gotta be honest aion 2 is the only thing that shook my faith in bdo. I don't think I'll fully swap but I think I'll be putting a lot of time in on launchright so saying I'll play it for on launch for sure but won't drop bdo. astonishing doompost. I really tried my hardest to take this thread by the neck and slam it into the ground to talk about how bdo is dead. how fucked is your head that you think anyone talking about a different game is a shill and anyone saying they're taking a break from game A to play game B for a little bit is a doompost. 4chan rotted your brain my little /v/tard seek help.>>2974599I'm not even saying that. Aion 2 is pretty good but I don't think it's good enough to uproot any communities that are stuck to their games. It doesn't even scratch the same itch as bdo but it's good enough to get me to play it for awhile.
You can't even access the market in Aion 2 without paying, with all the p2w shit on top.I'm retarded but i'm not THAT retarded, so i'll stick with BDO thanks.
blud actually started a heated emotional argument over which gookslop gooner game is better
If you think about it, Aion 2 doesn't have gay monkey classes like zerker and striker

>>2977870yikes!
FUCK I forgot to use my Black and White seals to get another outfit and got just 300 Crons instead. I can only blame myself, I keep waiting until the last possible moment in case I change my mind on what to get and then surprise surprise I go and lose out because I forget.
Is there ever a reason for my to change off of mystic and my tag awa maehwa. Every other class sucks
>>2978064Depends what else you like to play, have you really tried everything? I haven't changed from my awa Musa main and succ DK tag for at least 3 years, but then again I have used the free PEN Blackstars we got to give Sovereign weapons to my awa Maehwa, succ Drak, and awa Nova, then they trade the recent armours and PEN Kharazads. So I can grind with those up to about Crypt/Ash if I really want to play something else.
>>2978022it's okay sweetie you can start fresh and chase all the new FOMO day 1 on Aion 2 instead!
>>2978064I'm not sure what you're asking but you can play whatever whenever, there aren't any massive class discrepancies in pve nowadays afaik
>>2977424these greedy gooks are so out of touch it's not even funny
>>2978620I've tried most but I was just checking to see if there is a pve class thats just butter in the grind. Mystic is like that just rolling around the zones. Awa maehwa is when I want to use 2 braincells instead of 1. >>2980316I just wanted to know if there is a drooling monkey 0 braincell pve grinder or if there is one that is satisfying to play. I started 2016 as maehwa only and picked up mystic during her launch. never bothered with any of classes.
>>2982196>I just wanted to know if there is a drooling monkey 0 braincell pve grindersucc maegu
they need to add a third slot to tagging frfr
>>2983435I don't know why PA wants to force people to play as few charas as possible, you'd think they'd realize it would get people to buy more outfits, weights, horse whistles, etc
>>2983665They are still clinging to the retarded hope that there will be totally braindead whales that are going dec sovs on more alts
>>2983665it would increase playtime and pearl shop buys, and also mean that they could present the main draw of the game to more people. they clearly spend fuck tons of money on classes and knock it out of the park pretty much every time... the lack of encouragement for people to play more "main" classes is very confusing.
>>2983435the game just needs family wide gear tagging is annoying as hell
what should i do with this random worker shit
>>2984054you can turn those coins into medicine, good moneysell trace of naturekeep magical shardsrest is straight up garbage, not worth even spending your time clicking to sell themI guess you could turn the chicken into worker food
>>2984063arigatou
>>2983886they would never do that unless they have an income stream to replace the gigawhales who buy endless crons and gear on multiple charactersit's also why tagging is intentionally limited, but the playerbase is happy to be milked like cattle
>>2984071>the gigawhales who buy endless crons and gear on multiple charactersNO ONE EVER IN THE HISTORY OF THIS GAME DID THIS I REFUSE TO BELIEVE
>>2984071no one whales for multiple sets of gear lol
>>2984071I LOVE BEING MILKED
>>2984054Most worker stuff you want to just leave for a while to amass large quantities, then process. Ideally you want to organise things into separate storages to keep everything clear, for example I have all my ores and gems in Velia, herbs and alchemy stuff in Heidel, and timber in Calpheon. Workers can do that for you when you set them going on a node.If you want to make trade crates, you should be doing that in Valencia and then selling them in Nampo to get the maximum trade distance bonus. So really I'd just say hold on to it for now, the quantities you have aren't huge but will build up quickly with patience.

why are these edanas such cucks? give me the fucking buff so i can use the free loot scrolls and grind

dps checks are so incredibly shit, used to be i tagged a class and pulled competitive trash/hour regardless of my skill level, i followed a rotation or priority list and managed to have a good hour, one way or another. i learned from there, starting with nothing but profiting both in silver and in skill. now i can't fucking pass the dps check and even risked death a couple times by playing something i'm not familiar with. what the fuck is this, why am i supposed to be so proficent in a class to fucking grind, can't i tag something and still grind what my main can, why does it have to be so difficult it's already a waste of time. now i'm supposed to learn a class, reeeally learn a class, to fucking perform or even just to survive? no thanks and no thanks, i won't go back to dsr or gyfin or some other stationary low tier spot just to spend 25 hours mastering micromovements and cancels, go fuck yourself
>>2987572You shouldnt really have a problem with the dps check once you are the actual AP requirement but still, I dont like them because what if I want to take it easy and grind slowerThe old system was much better where there was never actually a dps check, only how fast you kill the things is how fast you get the afk phases
Has anyone measured the rate at which paint is consumed at different spots, and if so is it shared anywhere?
>>2987740I hate how it punishes you for taking a quick 10second break. Like other spots you do your pulls clear the packs and oh I need to respond to someone message I can just dash away type response and go back.
>>2988018rate is based on kills as is drop rate its 3 points per kill. So places where you kill more mobs = faster drain rate but drop rate is always the same so places with faster drain rate = faster drop rate. It is not affected by drop rate according to them.
>>2988173https://www.naeu.playblackdesert.com/en-US/News/Detail?groupContentNo=10616&countryType=en-US#3If you go down to choose your landscape paint box there is a little drop down window with all the info and drop rates on landscape paint.
>>2988173>>2988181Nice, thanks very much.
>>2987572I think Aphrodon's implementation is pretty bad, basically the entire time you are under a DPS check, it normally only becomes a risk when you have to play around the scarecrow, but yeah you can't take a moment's respite. With Hermesia there's only one part which is a DPS check, outside of that you can take as long as you want with the first and last packs and both of the bosses. Aphrodon is not a good introduction to these types of mechanics.
love how breezy sail always happens to activate right before a stop-and-turn from the ocean navigationeveryfuckingtime
>there were unironically more players when fucking LOML launched 3 years ago and Edania release couldn't even come close to itwhat went so wrong?
>>2988466edania didn't add anything exciting to the game at all.
>>2988466>steamcharts>when not even a fraction of the userbase use steam
>>2988466We're doing pretty good considering we have retarded devsOnce WoW Forever and Aion 2 hype dies down, people will trickle back
>>2970124>>2970132>>2970348guyza i pitied my necklace, should i try to dec my belt too with the 322fs?
>>2989009nothing lasts forever, not even WoW which they have to relaunch every few years to stay on topBDO's days are numbered, merely trying out Aion 2 opened my eyes to how dated and clunky BDO's engine is, and even PA is trying to move on to other projects instead of updating it
he said as they keep updating it
>>2992287and yet it's missing modern engine features like PBR, movement is still clunky, they can't implement smooth platforming because the engine can't handle it, there's still pop in issues, etc.state of the art from 12 years ago doesn't cut it anymore
he said as he keeps playing it every day
>>2992294posting on the thread doesn't mean I play the game anymoreeven if people log in how many are actually playing anymore anyways? most likely they're fishing on velia beach with the game minimized to system tray while playing other games because that's all they can tolerate from BDO anymore
>i don't even play the game anymore. i just keep posting in the general because i am obsessed with it and will inevitably retu- uhh.. i mean... i have moved on, ok??
>>2992292The movement being clunky is fine and BDO isn't going anywhere any time soon so calm down lol
>>2992498Delicious. What was the stack and pity?
>>2984054it's all garbage that exists to waste your time.
>>2992303i tolerate the combat, nothing else keeps me. i regret every second i spend on useless time-wasting garbage like "lifeskills" this game really has absolutely nothing going for it outside of flashy effects while running around in circles. as stupid as it sounds, no other game does it better.
>>2992653i don't even care about the flashy effects and turn all that shit off. the flow of combat and the keys you press in sequence being different and unique with each class is enough to make me want to come back every now and then. quite literally the only reason I still log in semi frequently is just because I often find myself missing the act of pressing keys in bdo combat and it's way more fun than just lmb dodge block parry games. there will never be a game with combat like this ever again and that sucks
>>2992681yeah the combat input is excellent, and there's really quite nothing like it, or at least nothing that would i know. like you said, other games only do the standard inputs with inorganic-feeling action bars, if at all.
>>299259827 pity and 422 fslook at this cute hog
>>299311327 pity is some great luck, nice one.That's one huge hog
>>2993113she is in velia, next to the well, she sells the loot scroll
>>2993271you're not on a gameshow
>>2993188Yeah, lucky for once. These new accessories, on the other hand, are pure pain...
i want to fuck the slutty villager in velia inn
>>2993113post butt
>>2993113HIDE YO CAPE

26AUTUMNGREETING
how was I fishing without fishing pole?shit game
Should I get into this game because I heard it has good life skilling?
>>2997423nothing about lifeskilling is "good". it's cookie clicker at its best and afk journey at its worst. it just has a lot of progression treadmills that keep you engaged.
>>2997423game costs 1 dollar, just try it out by yourself
do you guys think crimson desert 2 will be like bdo or just kliff's story 2.0?
>>2997423It's $1, just give it a try. Imo the mainstory quest is totally worth it alone.
>>2998014It'll just be crimson desert 2.0. Continuing kliff's story is fine but I'd argue that they're going to try to make a more compelling mc for the game. as it stands the mc in cd is just do you want to play man, woman, or green man.
>>2998243>do you want to play man, woman, or green man.that's not correct though it's just man (a very generic looking man)
The night-time loot bonus should sit in the special 200%, not the regular 300%. It's frequently wasted, I'm not going to avoid 300% just for minmaxing a small, limited duration buff.
>>2998014lol PA is done with BDO, it's just a cash cow to milk dry as they ramp up monetization every year, maybe they're cooking up the replacement but I doubt itit's much easier for them to just make single player games and rake in 200 million every few years while extracting as much money as possible from sunk cost boomers on BDO
>>2998631>lol PA is done with BDO, it's just a cash cow to milk dry as they ramp up monetization every yearyear 5? of this being said. :thinking:
>>29988405 years or more, and they keep developing, expanding and releasing new classes, zones, bosses, quests, outfits, items, events, arenas and who knows what more. I literally gave up beeing a sweatlord 3 years ago and I only fish, I am enlightened.
>>2998840oh I forget this boomoid playerbase considers retarded fat fairies with fishing xp, p2w fishing rods and 6 lootbox packages every week to be content not monetization
>>2998877>p2wWhat do you win, anon?
>>2998877he thinks fishing faster is p2w. do you think fishing is the fastest income in the game? why do tourists even bother lmfao
>>2997939>>2998166I already own it, It's more so the time sink that concerns me.
>>2999220The lifeskilling is fun and really good money once you got decent gear (not that hard). It can be split up by gathering atk, cooking/alch semi afk and fishing full afk. I pretty much don't grind at all and just finance my gear from lifeskilling.
hot take but the monetization in bdo is actually decent and quite healthy in the current day especially for a korean mmo. i really don't think it's as bad as people say it is. guild wars 2 is about as expensive for all the things people consider necessities or worth buying
>>2999776yeah its really not horrible
>>2999785it was a lot worse a long time ago. pets were hard to get for free and there was a bigger gap between t1 and t4 pets than there are now with how grind spots were made. you really did need weight and inventory slots to grind comfortably. going from 1-60 to try out a new class used to be miserable and time consuming without the extras. these days you can tag a random class with base weight and it's fine. i think maybe the tent is the most 'necessary' thing but i could be wrong. even the value pack has lost a lot of power.
>>2999776its like path of exile where the game is "free" but you need to pay 40 bucks or whatever to get enough storage space if you want to play for hundreds of hours. only difference is you can't pay to win in that game while you can in bdo, but the price of doing so is so ridiculously expensive that almost no one does it>>2999815yes i was there. they did good toning it down. value pack is very powerful but they give you so many of them for free for just playing that its whatever
>>2999827yeah i think the absurdity of how much it would cost to whale for such little real gains helps a lot, it's strange how overblown it is. it's so insanely easy to gear up now
>>2999776dont act like pa doesnt want you to keep buying crap after the initial "mandatory" purchases. you want to call gw2 expensive because it sells expansions, and while i totally hate that practice that ultima started, they do discounts and you can obtain every single cash shop crap through ingame gold conversion. it's not an ideal solution, because cash shops shouldn't exist to begin with (*gasp*), but pa doesn't even have the decency to do that. they keep adding p2w advantages (((convenience))) and fancy costumes that you can only ever obtain by being a paypiggy.
>>3000008just stop buying crap after the mandatory purchases?
>>3000050in that case, we're talking about two different things. if you don't value anything that's available in the store past that point, bdo's "price" is certainly lower. i find that perspective short-sighted because i like various costumes.
So tamers are the secret bottom thicc lolis of this game, right?
Aside from a few bugs, Event Horizon is the best grindzone ever made.
>>3000356>those badgesdidn't know we had casuals here
>>3000274More like bottom-thicc hebes really
>>3000274made me miss Elin
>>3000356kek nice mauser
>>3000744no need miss those elins, anon. >>>/vg/terag/.
>>3001460>already overmissed it but watching these recaps is like I lived it
>>2999776That is not a hot take lol and anyone who says otherwise just haven't played the game
>>3003821It is indeed a hot take
This is now a laugh at Aion 2 thread.
>>3005829>reviewbombing a game they paid for to play in early accesslmao, so many losers out there
>>3005829shockingunexpectedwho could have predicted this
>>3005829Let me guess, server issues?
yo where the halloween shit at
>maintenancewat?
so no patrigio?
>>3009501Don't worry i'm going to buy over 1 tril worth of vendor crons tomorrow, so next week guaranteed patrigio
>>3009590aw thanks bro
>>3005829I'm on my knees praying this shit lasts at least some 6 months>>3009501Patrigio only on the month preceding the ball retard i.e. another 2 months
>>3011411In 2025 Patrigio had an event at the end of August, then another in December. This year there was one in the second half of March as well as the one in July before the ball.
We aren't getting another night vendor because they know i'm prepared for it.
>>3013776
>>3013780350 Herbal Medicine is mad, you must be doing extra quests to get more coins on top of the Black Shrines, right?
>>3014976herbal medicine is free stonksyou buy them when they low and you get free money when its a gathering/patrigio event
>>3014992That does make sense, as long as you do sell. I have always been amazed at how the price spikes during those events, I can't understand the type of person who happily spends max price for in-demand items like that.
I really wouldnt mind grinding and pitying if it was just in a vacuum but I just hate all these niggers getting lucky
Just in case you are hoarding tag exp, you need to collect it before next maintenance.
>>3015154>Other people succeeding is negatively affecting me!lmao
>>3018241Especially in a game with zero gear based interaction between players kek
How'd your black shrines go this week? Post em!
>>3019121only if you post panties
