>What is BDO? Black Desert Online is an MMORPG by Pearl Abyss, most recently released for Western audiences. It features action-oriented combat, open world PVP territory control, player housing, unlimited levels of grinding, and more.
>Is it P2W? Lots of paid convenience features; and some cash shop items, such as most outfits (!), are able to be sold to other players on the marketplace, but maximum price caps and weekly selling limits of cash shop items restrict profit. One CAN NOT P2W over a dedicated player.
>NewFAQs If you don't know if the game is "worth it," get a guest pass. All classes can be viable and fun. Ask something more specific. Weapon: Kaia -> Liverto -> Kzarka Armor: Grunil -> Boss armor For everyone's sake, read the links, Google it, and Ctrl+F, BEFORE asking the same stupid question other people previously have in the same thread. Don't be surprised if the thread is dead occasionally, it happens more often than you'd think. Noire is the best goddess.
Found it, still changes my desktop resolution for some reason, oh well its a minor inconvenience, at least it doesn't go back to 1080p every time i tab out now.

>30 hours getting master 2 Don't you nigger me, you fucking nigger. If it was just that easy to get master for trading then why is there FOUR masters on my server? And 6 artisans, 16 professionals and then there's 4 skilled in the top 30 ranking. If it was just that easy to get that high in trading and make all that money then why would it seem to be the second/third least popular profession with barely anyone bothering to get past skilled?
That being said, as I'm looking at the rankings why does it seem that more people farm than people trade? I literally have no idea how to farm and I've intentionally never bothered with it because it looks useless since every material comes from picking it out of a bush or something or having your workers pick it out of bushes. Hunting seems understandably garbage and taming is very time consuming so I get those but I don't get trading being so low when I see people doing it all the time.
Robert Morales
>everyone should have 12 alts Is there actually any benefit to having alts other than fun? I usually just pick one class and stick with it, which seemed to me to be the way to play this game, what with the weird grindy level cap system
Ayden Morales
'Cause less people trade than farm, maybe? I'm a casual in top 10 in farming but I've never done trading just because
So you can have characters all over the world for world bosses, so you have more energy to use, so you can build failstacks on more characters...
Ryan Nelson
No, i cropped out my task bar because i forgot all my toddlercon doujins and shit open and the posts would probably ignore my problem for shitposting.
Caleb Barnes
Also what do you even do with alchemy? Obviously you make potions but the only potions that seem like they'd be worth anything to make is the gathering speed potion but those drop all the time in helms. I guess that's why that one also seems to be less people doing it. That's exactly my question. Why are there fewer people trading than farming when I'd assume all the materials anyone needs comes from workers. Let alone actually gathering anything yourself that isn't hides. What's the point of farming?
Luis Harris
Do you need to be online to get energy back?
Josiah Brooks
Oh, this question I can answer easily. You can do farming afk with much less commitment than trading, trading actually takes active gameplay, and the active gameplay isn't even intense and fun like combat, but boring travel.
You get 1 point every 3 mins for the character that's logged in and 1 point every hour for every character that isn't logged in. Stay logged in.
Parker Rogers
And workers can't process logs into planks or something some step workers couldn't do
Hunter Garcia
Yeah, workers get all the raw materials for you and shit and you have to process the raw materials into seasoned materials. But again, what exactly are you farming that makes it worth farming (afk) rather than just sending my giant worker to steal potatoes from NPC farms?
Robert Gonzalez
No, I'm sure it's not worth it. I just hate micromanaging workers.
Brody Gutierrez
And also I've heard you shouldn't use giants and potatoes probably don't really make much profit? idk just saying
Cooper Ramirez
It was a joke because I don't care about food materials since I don't do anything with cooking. Giants stealing potatoes from farms just seems what the workers are actually doing when I send workers there. What's wrong with giants though?
Jace Edwards
Giants are slow, but they have a lot of action points. You'll want all goblins to be the greatest trade empire munchkin but you'll need to feed them much more often. Which I don't like doing.
Jayden James
anyone on edan want to do sausans?
Tyler Morales
What skills should i be getting as ranger? anything that i should ignore? just got to 20 i tried bddatabase to find builds but for some reason it doesn't show rangers, tried to fiddle with the filters but got nothing.
Eli Murphy
Charging wind tree, will of the wind tree, evasive explosion shot tree up to level 3, blasting gust tree up to level 3, I think that's pretty much all your pre-awakening skills
Dylan Bailey
Oh, oh, and all the flow skills associated with these. And call of the sky or whatever maybe and pinpoint tree and moving shot but anyway EES, WotW and CW are your damage skills. Just try it all out, you have unlimited free resets before level 56.
Luke Torres
Thank you
Ayden Lewis
I sure have a problem with posting first and then thinking of more to say this thread
Jonathan Watson
Oh that's convenient, thanks ill just put the important things first and play around then
>sorceress >ranger >valkyrie Which of these are the most useful/fun?
Jordan Smith
don't come back before you read the OP

Carson Wood
There's four masters on your channel, there's probably 100+ master 2 traders on your server. The reason people don't level it is because their guild doesn't know the easy way to level it, and/or they can't be bothered putting in the effort to make it worthwhile by setting up a trade empire.
Hudson Reyes
i'll join your dumb guild again if you carry me to level 56 in sausan
Ryan Hall
Join Sardine!
Logan Nguyen
I'm currently Trade apprentice 6, and I have literally every town and city connected. How do I go about leveling it up and making money while doing so? Am I supposed to just keep doing npc trading quests?
Jonathan Cook
You won't make much money but this is what you do. You empty your inventory, purchase as many trade items from Velia as you can, then roll your character to the farm east and sell them all. Repeat until all items are sold from trade manager, then go to heidal and do the same thing. Once that manager is empty too, swap channels and repeat.
I did this from prof 4 and it took me 4 days to hit master 2
Carter Gray
>farm east Which one? Also what if the items sell for less there
Joseph Sanchez
Finto. It doesn't matter, you get the same xp.
Benjamin Cook
what the fuck is this minigame
>press spacebar really fast to win >press spacebar once >fail instantly
Chase Allen
You press space to win the minigame but you press r to get on the horse. Keep in mind you have to wait at least 30 seconds from roping it to get on it. Read the OP for more info
John Russell
nvm fixed it
Michael Lopez
So you still need to loot on your own with 4 pets? That sucks
Oliver Johnson
Yeah
Nicholas Morgan
Get 4 t4 pets goy
Jonathan Hall
All the classes are fun, just play whatever you want.
Angel Howard
please don't enable illiterates
Hudson Wood
Do tiers affect the looting? I thought it was just buffs.
Zachary Rodriguez
They loot faster and in a bigger radius
Carson Walker

great moves a bunch of NPCs have started breaking it down like this, most notably the pickpocket for the calpheon daily that will just try and fuck the wall right next to the guard that asks you to capture him
weird

I got more than that solo, 55 to 56 is fine.
Lucas Myers
you get less exp being in a party m8
if your party members are retarded and not spreading out to kill things you're losing out on exp
2ppl = 70% 3ppl = 60% 4+ ppl = 50% xp gained
Liam Watson
Just bought game and got it downloaded. Thinking of making Valkyrie for first character. Tell me why Valk would be a mistake.
Ian Garcia
That's for you to decide. Either you like it or you don't.
Kevin Richardson
Make your own goddamn decision
Sebastian Johnson
Wizard question: Considering that I'll spend most of my time (or all my playtime) without boss gear, is there a reason to go full Grunil or partial Grunil?
I read so many old threads about wizards/witches going Agerian or partially Agerian. But I heard from a friend that's not viable anymore.
I want to invest in Agerian Gloves and Agerian Armor along with Heve Gloves and Heve Shoes in order to get max Cast Speed, Crit (because Liverto Staff), and increase my base HP by about 40%. I should mention that I have Ancient Weapon Core + Ancient Guardian Seal and a Bronze Dagger, all for the accuracy bonus.
Should I go with this?
Liam Howard
I was just hoping for a short list of cons, most guides I find for this game are not very recent.
Henry Morris
You mean 2 people getting 60% and 3+ 50%
Tyler Gray
Play her and find out if you like her or not. Goddamn, looking for cons, you've got the wrong attitude right from the start.
Noah Kelly
Are you not as badly locked into a single character at max level in this game compared to others?
Xavier Stewart
Did you even read literally THIS threa- fuck this. fuck it. I want the slow dead thread back
Easton Fisher
never checked myself, but if you say so
Isaiah Turner
Actually that's a good point. I only read the OP of the last thread last night and assumed it was the same. The guide list in this one is different than last thread.
Joseph Wright
Okay. good. read the op. ok. so I've heard valks are slow in movement, but I dunno if that changed with the awakening. even if it didn't, they shouldn't have any more issues. refer to >All classes can be viable and fun
and about being character locked,
Eli Adams
oh. and there is no max level. well it is 100, but even the highest autists are like, level 62
Kevin Cook
nigga who gonna waste 30hours of spending 100% of your effort trading, when you want to play the game or do something AFK
Noah Gutierrez
This is what I meant here It's in a limbo of actually requiring you to be at the computer but still not doing anything actively for extended periods of time.
Charles Barnes
>keep activating my alchemy stone when i try to open the inventory AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Jaxson Hill
why are all 3 maids so ugly
Nathaniel Davis
I wish you could customize them like support partners in pso2
Asher Richardson
so you dont feel bad buying 9
Leo Richardson
so you can suffer for being a good goy while looking at them
Ryder Hall
All grunil. Grunil has 2 gem slots each piece. I'm sure you can work with that better.
Jose Allen
pics? they probably look like regular koreans, you know maids can't afford surgery
Jaxson Hall
>change hotkeys off of strictly being 1-9 >hotbar still displays numbers instead of updating to my new keys Retard game.
Jayden Reed
This Also aren't the ore crates less profitable than just selling them on the marketplace?
Austin Sanchez
Yes, but you can't sell ore.
Xavier Rodriguez
>can't sell ore uh.. wat
Jose Ortiz
Honestly, I was making a guess. There's always so much ore in the marketplace, I'm sure everyone has more than they need.
Gavin Fisher
I suppose it'd take a bit of waiting before your stacks of ore actually sold.. But youre' literally making 1/5 to 1/10 of what you'd make if you just sold the ore / ingots on the MP. Still worth it?
What's that about 'extra processing' by the workers now?
Easton Flores
why did everyone tell me to get a group
Cooper Morris
so they could leech off you, obviously.
Grayson Barnes
It's still faster if you're efficient at killing
Lincoln Cook
I dunno, I don't do trading or workers. I just answered about the crates.
Andrew Garcia
HOW DO I TURN OFF THIS FUCKING NIGGER DARK FLASHING EVERYTIME ANYONE HITS ANYTHING NEAR ME
HOLY FUCK MY EYES ARE BLEEDING AND MY HEAD IS ABOUT TO EXPLDOE JESUS CHRIST
Asher Edwards
I've heard on the forums other people have that problem too. But I've heard you're also SoL
>tfw tried keys from old theads and have a 1 hour cooldown
Jace Perry
I have one guest pass. I should have 10 new ones, apparently, but I can't seem to find them. Anyway, make a post when you can use it or give me an email or something.
Matthew Morris
Because it produces more XP per kill, even if it's shared If 5 person kill 1 monster each, each one gets XP for 2.5 monster kills, so 5 monster kills produce 12.5 worth of monster XP It's efficent, if a bit difficult to maximize for
