I might include some important Dulfy guides, and the somethinglovely link.

>reach 56 >bought a PRI awakened weapon >bought a sexy outfit >finished main quest now what I'm legitimately bored of this game right now I hate pvp, grinding is shit, other moneymaking methods require 2 weeks playtime per profession to get anywhere, and even then what's the point of buying all that gear when there's no good pve content
Landon James
>All classes can be viable and fun. You are better off putting some classes require more gear than others.
>Weapon: Rent a Kaia, or BUY a +15 Yuria -> Liverto -> Kzarka. >Awk weapon: Green -> Blue -> Dandelion >Offhand: Warrior & Berserker Accuracy offhand/other classes AP offhand -> Nouver Gear isn't explained this easy, so you are better off making a pastebin with details or just scrape it.

Sebastian Cruz
Any info on that new boss helm coming with the big update?
Alexander Harris
Jesus, this sucks so bad
James Sanchez
Would replacing your Grunil shoes with Muskan be a good idea for your first boss upgrade, since you'd be regaining the lost damage in the ability to use an AP offhand?
Ian Martinez
So how do you guys deal with the camera is there some sort of auto reset for it since its always looks wonky for me.
Henry Harris
I use the arrow keys to kinda play with it if it feels off.
Parker Stewart
Press esc, hit Edit View or camera or someshit, and there should be a small box you can tick next to the confirm button that'll allow you auto center your camera.
Ian Sanchez
I guess you mean bhegs? As far as boss armor goes you do probably want bhegs first. Muskans is a really good defense boost, especially for pvp though and probably the second you want.
Adrian Lewis
what the heck are these things?
Robert White
Touch it and find out.
Hunter Miller
I was 190% fat hauling all my silkworm cocoons across the desert didn't want to risk it sucking me in like a black hole and killing me
Aiden Lee
its a dungeon ignore the erptard
Dominic Rodriguez
I thought there weren't any dungeons?
Christian Hernandez
its not instanced, but you really want a party for it
Jack Martin
How fucking big is this game? I had it at launch and now I got a 51gb update. Holy hell.
Matthew Lopez
that's really neat, thanks friendo
Ayden Garcia
Pretty fucking big and we're getting more land in the west in the next big update.
Jacob Reed
That's pretty sweet. I remember stopping because it seemed there were only 2 big towns in the game atm.
51gb of updates still seems ridiculous for me though.
Nathaniel Reyes
combat update when
Michael Stewart
They replaced all the old combat with awakening
Juan Hill
is there an absolute best way to make money like the most efficient, highest yielding per hour/day excluding godly luck and rare drops of course
Joseph King
Not sure, but I just spent an hour at Ancient Weapons and came out 17m richer
Jack Lewis
>Ancient Weapons ?
Adrian Hughes
literally most of it is water, 30gb of the last updates were just ocean graphics for the new expansion
Parker Gomez
Stop with the convenience bullshit you fucking shill. We all know the cash shop is more than convenience items and costumes. Either mention pets/weight limits/artisans or don't fucking mention it at all.
Angel Hall
not OP but people will always argue about this stuff, how about give OP a clear and constructive post to paste in there, you seem to be aware of the cashshop situation
Dylan Mitchell
>someones trying to do something positive for the thread and help the influx of new players >meanwhile you're shitposting
Pets can be bought with silver Weight limits and artisans can be bought with loyalty
You're literally complaining about pay2convenience, not pay2win. Nothing in game that has an impact on gameplay is only available to paying players and totally unavailable to non-payers.
Evan Russell
you can buy 4x more weight in the cash shop than the loyalty shop, meanwhile cash shop users get the cash shop weight on top of the loyalty weight
you can buy one artisans with 4 days loyalty, you know that's a bullshit argument or you're just a complete fucking retard
and pets can only be bought via the marketplace if you camp it 24/7 or if you buy maids aka another cash shop item
and that's not to mention: ghillie/desert suit, fishing outfit, cooking outfit, processing outfit, costume exchange coupons, horse breeding resets, extra workers, item brands, and every other p2w bullshit in the cash shop
Andrew Gray
This. It would literally take over a year to upgrade a single piece of boss gear to +15 using only loyalty Artisan's Memories. I have no problem with BDO being p2w but at least admit that it is.
Joseph White
>admit that it is not OP, but I don't believe they are trying to hide anything on purpose, I think they will post whatever if someone gives them something, they aren't some evil shill marketer trying to trick you into opening your wallet, I'm pretty sure its that obese ranger that posts it unless they finally gave up, and if they did give up the new person just does whatever they are told

Who am I kidding I'd have more luck creating world peace between all peoples.
Dylan Ward
What's the best way to make money? I've got less than 20 mil at lvl 50 and only 80 AP and DP. Need to git rich.
Nolan Morgan
So I have a lvl 50 Witch with 348 SP planning to push to lvl 56. What are the recommended spells / skillbuild?
Matthew Bailey
it's literally the strongest class in the game if played and built correctly, alongside ninja
Levi Mitchell
What an odd way to spell kunoichi.
Camden Stewart
it's interchangeable
Nolan Foster
Ooh so with all those items I'll get a guaranteed TRI ogre ring? or how long will it take me to get 2.1 bill if I sell costumes? Nice pay to win
Luis Robinson
Tweak the shape of her face a little, I think if you make the outline of her face a little smoother and rounder she'll look cuter, then post nudes.
William Fisher
Can we just add this?
All prices are sale prices, so wait for one. Just pretend the game has a monthly sub or something for the first few months and you'll be golden None of this stuff is required until around level 50
Required >4 pets - $28, available on mp but extremely hard to get that way
Strongly encouraged >3-4 (2 of each or 2 storage + 1 transaction) maids - $20-$34
Optional >pantsu/glasses/earrings for main farmer/waifu - $10 >horse flute for main - $10 >+16 inventory slots, only if you fish - $10 >character slots if you like alts - $5 each >furniture, no in game stats that can't be easily bought in game for super cheap with silver, rank 1 houses aren't worth it. you can make a nice house with just $5 for walls/floors, $25 for a furniture set
Late game stuff >artisan's, can be ignored until you want a dandelion weapon or boss gear which is a long ways off for a new player. these are the main p2w feature, but still not required unless you're aiming for the top 1% which you probably wouldn't even reach with them >elion's tears, not a huge deal since boss drops are so fucking random anyway. stable slots and anything to do with horses, breeding is a fucking scam >worker lodging and storage, farm contribution instead >costumes >boat/wagon skins >skill guides, you get a bunch in game and can change skills for free up to level 56, look up a guide >anything in the beauty tab since it's all covered by value packs
All in all, explorer's pack (when on sale for $25) plus roughly $75 and you'll be set for life
Nathan Scott
Plum is semi-decent. But Kunoichi is fucking garbage. The class doesnt stand a chance against almost all other classes
Luis Bailey
Please stop this bad meme.
Nolan Lopez
Someone please post some nudes.
Nathaniel Bailey
Buy a set from the marketplace. You get shitloads of free money as a new player
Thomas Brown
>800 timber squares to make a boat that only has 6 times as much lifetime than a normal fishing boat made with 1/80 of the material fucking christ korea, don't do this to me
Austin Williams

Christian Hall
how is this a meme
go to the BDO PvP/Class forms and read up what literally EVERYONE has to say about kuno.
Open the pearlshop and check kuno costumes, compare to other costumes Open the market and check the amount of sold kuno costumes, compare to the amount of other classes. Go to the market and check the amount of +15 weapons for kuno(especially kunai&shurikens) and compare to the amount of other classes. For other classes, shit is always sold out. For Kuno weapons, they are stockpiling BECAUSE NOBODY PLAYS THE CLASS its entirely useless.
the class is dead and nobody plays it
Asher Lopez
>go to the BDO PvP/Class forms and read up what literally EVERYONE has to say about kuno. People also say that Tamers and Sorcs are bad in their forums.
Ian Phillips
People complain about sorc because she has no super armor and a few other things and is so reliant on stamina.
Tamer is literally shit. the class has some extremely nasty bugs that prevent its CC from working half of the time, which is the reason tamer is shit right now. Oh and the pet is not even half as good as the witch pets.
Kuno is literally just dead and the evidence is absolutely fucking everywhere.
Jack Peterson
there's a boat we can craft with longer lifespan than the fishing boat?
Kayden Allen
Epheria Fishing boat coming soon, 1m lifespan compared to the fishing boat's 174k, probably faster too Requires designs that are given on professional+ fishing dailies, almost 20 times as much flax, 1500 pine plywood and about 600 steel ingot worst of all, 800 timer squares.
Parker Ward
Fuck. Time to start hoarding then I guess.
Robert Flores
this
Brayden Murphy
Post n-nudes please.
Austin Howard
no? I already told you it's fucking pointless You're better off just making 6 fishing boats than one big fucking epheria boat
unless it's kr fuckery from the datamining and it has infinite lifespan there's no real reason to go for it you need 20 design and the max you can get is 4 per day with master 2 fishing also all boat equipments cost design items
Blake Brown
fuck off faggot
Matthew Sullivan
black spirit game gives enough for 1 artisans memory and thats off now, pathetic how desperate you are to defend this dead game
>hurrr rng exists so nothing is p2w just hang yourself
Dominic Bell
I did my best, her face looks a little rounder and smoother now imo.
But I don't have any such mods installed, so no nudes. Sorry.
Carter Lee
>>hurrr rng exists so nothing is p2w lmfao what did that even have to do with that guys post
Can someone post a weenie loony outfit and weapon set on NA
I am determined to win a bid on one, but they don't get posted often
Liam Green
>implying anyone here is retarded enough to sell outfits
Bentley Sanchez
I've seen some people post about doing it!
and it's not like I'm going to get one fo' free
Christopher White
If you send out a mega on reset night it's pretty much guaranteed someone will post it. Maybe offer some food for posting if you're really desperate.
Angel Martin
>cant properly preview outfits
i need to see what they look like while fighting and running
wtf
Elijah Turner
>offer some food never thought of that, will try it! thanks user!
Matthew Campbell
are the servers down rn? Im having trouble logging in or reaching the website
Carson Nelson
EU looks fine
Colton James
post your pearl inventory
Kayden Richardson
Im able to log into ESO, and access Veeky Forums, but I cannot log into BDO or access the BDO website. It says site cannot be reached. Im in the US. Maybe our servers are taking a shit right now. Its not my connection
Bentley Johnson
Maybe it's your routing
John Richardson
Possibly. Im at my university right now, and the internet here is super fast, but it goes through a filter. Ive never had a problem with any other MMO. Played WoW, GW2, and ESO here often. I just barely started BDO. So that might be the case.
