>What is BDO? Black Desert Online is an Korean MMORPG by Pearl Abyss. It features action-oriented combat, open world PvP territory control, player housing, unlimited levels, life skills, and more.
>Is it P2W? Yes if you're willing to drops hundreds of dollars. Three critical things that will aid you in progression are having 4 pets which you can buy with real money or in game money, buying weight limit increases with either loyalty or real money, and artisan memories which you can buy with either loyalty or real money. These items are more accessible when spending real money considering the marketplace is sparse regarding pets and loyalty takes longer to get than real world cash.
>NewFAQs Newfags might be overwhelmed by the information overload at the beginning. Do yourself a favor and "turn off system notifications" in the Settings>Game options. Check everything in that window. Avoid lag by turning off High End mode in the Settings>Screen tab. Be sure to check "Remove other's effects" and uncheck "Display other's names" for an enjoyable world boss experience. 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. If you don't know if the game is "worth it," ask for a guest pass in the thread.
I can't believe I wasn't even aware of the Margoria event, 2 Epheria Sailboats holy shit!!!

Grayson Cook
You're everything that's wrong with this game
Samuel Ortiz
I'm rather new to this game, should i keep upgrading my gear past +15 or should i just save money and start working towards boss gear?
Ryder Gonzalez
ghillie suit = guaranteed faggot
Dylan Rivera
>you're wrong because you're using game mechanics to benefit yourself No, he's not. If some cuntbag's gonna try and run me out of a spot he better be a witch/wizard 1 shot AoEing packs else he's gonna have some proving to do.
Brayden Kelly
boss gear is a meme to sell artisans memories in the cash shop
Isaiah Murphy
By the time you get your hands on boss awakening and armor you'll have enough stones lying in your storage.

Joshua Young
ITS UP!
James Evans
Hi, I'm new to this game and want to spend a few bucks. What shit should I buy first?
Nathan Ward
4 pets ($44) marketplace maid ($15) weight limit upgrades ($50) value pack ($15/month) are must haves
Jonathan Smith
Gotha Rensa Set is out
Ryan Long
My favourite NPC, she always looks so confused.
Elijah Butler
>more warrior/ranger/sorc/zerk buffs is PA retarded
Bentley Collins
I want to cum on this ass.
Dominic Peterson
>received mail >serendian soldier costume This one is male only, right?
Dominic Ramirez
It applies to all classes. You get the sorc. version if a sorc. opens the box
Connor Murphy
But female characters only get serendian blacksmith? I'd kinda like a serendian soldier for a valkyrie. Guess I'll have to try and get a delphe knight costume instead.
Jeremiah Carter
Let me guess, are you ninja main?
Christopher Williams

Thomas Gutierrez
>Maehwa >The movement distance for the skill [Chase] while in the awakened weapon combat stance, will now be the same as the Musa. So is it longer or shorter now?
Thomas Edwards
longer
Kayden Ortiz
Did they say something about eventually buffing non-awakening weapons? I want to keep using my staff as a wizard.
Nicholas Miller
Sweet.
Jonathan Morales
maehwa gets slightly longer chase
meanwhile sorcs/witchzards/warriors get 200% damage increases to skills
Carson Flores
>mfw Leveling sorc towards awakening, 10-15% damage increases, thank you.
Michael Evans
To be fair, Sorceress gets buffs mostly to shit and DOD was pretty weak for a skill with such long cooldown.
Mason Cruz
>sorcs can use more shit to kill everyone
Fuck.
Colton Thompson
>The AP buff from using Great Sword Defense skill and the special buff from using Rage Absorption skill not overlapping issue has been fixed so that both buffs can be applied at the same time.

Charles Walker

Dominic Wilson
I quickly piled this together. Maybe I'll add onto it overtime and yknow, make it actually nice. imgur.com/a/HA1Rd
Evan Rogers
>black wave >shit
Zachary Cook
No, it means you can get the accessory box and a lauren box on the same day
Joshua Howard
wtf is this shit?
Nathan Turner
Would Bishop be a good family name? Any other recommendations?
Aiden Wilson
ok, so
i've been reading recently that there are characters/accounts that supposedly have more luck than others in pretty much every aspect of the game
something about, if you make a character and you get a black stone on your first mob kill, apparently your account/character has inherently more luck and you will always be dropping more shit? there's also supposedly people checking and selling such accounts with higher luck. i've also heard this may be related to the zodiac sign and time of character creation.
any merit or further information on this?
Wyatt Gray
Just pick whatever, Family name is basically your account's name.
Gavin Martinez
nobody knows, all information in this game is hidden
luck doesn't even work properly in this game anyways, stuff like knowledge and node investment has no effect even though it's supposed to
Christopher Rivera
I bet there are people out there selling "lucky" accounts, but there's absolutely no proof to it. Game is pure RNG with majority of stats hidden, so you can't prove or disprove any bullshit people come up with when it comes to its RNG nature.
Aiden Young
i would bet its just bullshit, like in every mmo/game ever its like up+b in pokemon xD Shit that dos not work.
Aiden Ramirez
I have a character that got blackstone drop on first kill and 2 more blackstones within the first 2 minutes in game. Haven't noticed any better "luck" since then. Probably all RNG.
Noah Perez
lol
Blake Powell
have you thought about getting the kibelius armor? it would look nice on you
Jackson Martinez
>someone lists pet >i'm miles away from marketplace on all chars

I like the way it looks from the front, but I cannot stand how puffed out it looked.
Colton Thompson
That's a big bbc you have there
Christian Hall
if a game has remotely attractive women there will be talk of waifu
ok? I mean I might sound defensive with my post, but you are coming off kind of ignorant of the game you are playing, there really isn't anything to talk about that hasn't been said/googled, and if you are looking for an actual community that collaborates and talks about the game, Veeky Forums is never that, its always waifus, always arguing, and always full of shitposting
so instead of sounding pseudo-intellectual, you just come off as a newfag
Easton Collins
>big bbc >big big black cock
Ryan Jones
>my spouse >not "my wife" or "my husband" That's how you let people know you're a cockloving faggot or a trannyfucker.

Parker Cox
So I'm guessing it will come out on the March 1st maintenance?
Cameron Walker
no idea about that t b h
Easton Ramirez
mediah, valencia, musa/maehwa release, ninja/kuno release, awakenings were all delayed from their original scheduled release, so probably not
Asher Gonzalez
theres no need to get upset
Ryder Reyes
Lesbian actually.
